Cobalt.
I want to be clear, I’m happy doubles is on and I’m happy some Forged Maps are in the playlist; some are fantastic.
Cobalt is the exact opposite. It’s a re-imagining of a classic Halo CE map I happen to really like, but it plays like absolute trash in this game esepically compared to other versions. The blue team gets a double image in the small hallways and doorwayss because of the reflection, the spawns are brutal, and the sniper is IMO ridiculous and terrible on such a small map. The walls have texture or frame issues too - I have a consistent connection that’s wired so I don’t think it’s that. I like remade, re-imagined versions of classic maps, but this one is maddening and to me on levels of Overgrowth trash-ness.
Im ranting because I really enjoy this playlist, every bit of it, except this map and it got me thinking. And fuming that it’s not permanent. And it isn’t ranked, or have a ranked version. And Optic Prison doesn’t suck as bad, but it still sucks too. EDIT: AND there are no objective variants in the game type like previous iterations of doubles - I mean we already have 6 SLAYER TYPE PLAYLISTS… Stuff like this is classic 343i to me, giving us content that’s kind of mediocre - it could be and should be an amazing playlist but is just lacking that extra time and effort. That said, I am about to play more doubles right now while it lasts… probably on cobalt

Possibly, then ppl might care if they lose
-Yoink- yes someone that gets it!
Yes, I played two games and in one my team mate was afk in the other my teammate quit
But how great is it to have a playlist to complain about? 
i just wish it was ranked. I remember some pretty unplayable maps in h3 (especially with ar starts (tundra anyone?))

And even if it doesn’t have a high population it has half or number of players needed than almost any other playlist, so it would match as quickly or quicker… I would give so much money to know how 343 makes these decisions smh

You mean snowbound? But Yes I feel you I remember - H3 had a bit better playlist settings for its sandbox so to me that map was forgivable (especially since we got 1 veto vote back then). It had objective games at least, and ranked!!.. see what I mean? H5 is soooooo cloooooooose to being one of the greatest but keeps coming up short
