Great Game, Bad Maps

Says it in the title, The gameplay is really good, but none of the maps have any character or outstanding features. In Reach I thought the maps were good but the game wasn’t, but none of the maps that i’ve played are memorable or instant classics. Hopefully they will grow on me.

Hope so

If you thought Reach maps were good, your opinions should be taken with a grain of salt…

Haven, Abandon, Solace and Exile all seem to be memorable maps to me. Haven’t played yet, but from the gameplay I’ve seen, and I’ve seen a lot, there are maps I like and don’t like.

Yeah I suppose i’d agree with that, but do you not think they are better than these maps

If you’d hop off the hate on Reach bandwagon for a minute…

These are the best Halo maps at launch since Halo 2. Which honestly isn’t saying much.

Reach maps were absolutely horrible.

Haha yeah i think you must be confused your opinion though so that fine :slight_smile: but in all honesty Reach MP maps were awful

I think you have it reversed OP, at least on the maps. Reach’s maps were widely regarded as poorly designed and most of them were asymmetrical clusters of annoying and slow gameplay. There literally were a handful of maps that were worth playing in that game.

Halo 4’s maps are all good in some capacity (except Solace) but I think the main thing is that they either have a lack of power weapons (or too many vehicles) and are in the wrong playlist. Solace and Adrift are NOT Slayer maps in any capacity and they don’t play well in Slayer at all.

Narrows. The Pit.

Pinnacle was absolute garbage…just saying. Halo 4 maps as a whole look great. Can’t wait to play

Or maybe that’s his opinion. I dunno, just a thought…

My favourite maps from each game:
Halo CE: Sidewinder, Battle Creek, Wizard (No online experience)
Halo 2: Lockout, Turf, Headlong, Terminal (Tiny bit of online experience)
Halo 3: Avalanche, Construct, Narrows, The Pit, Sandtrap
Halo Reach: Swordbase, Countdown

Halo 4 looks to have a couple amazing maps that I’ll fall in love with.
