So, 343i will be adding CE maps into Halo made through forge by the community. That’s cool and all but does anyone remember when just shy of everyone was screaming about how the old maps, new abilities and vise versa would never work…what now? Seriously isn’t this basically 343i telling them to sit down the big boys are working?
Will this just be a showcase of how maps HAVE to change to flow with 343i’s vision for Halo or show how terrible the abilities are when applied to actual good map design? Since they better be picking the good maps from CE otherwise why even do this.
Regardless of how this goes it seems to be that 343i loses if they keep the modern play style, so why do this? I’m sure if 343i wants their image of Halo to stay pure more then a few people said “HEY, THIS IS STUPID!” and probably blitz tackled whoever came up with this idea out of the highest window of 343i Studios. So does this mean that 343i aren’t directly trying to change Halo and are unaware of what the old school fans want or do they just not care as people have been saying for years now? I remember seeing post not to long ago about someone saying 343i doesn’t even know what they’re doing and this seems to lean on that. So why do this?
Do they hate the 343i Defense Core with their shields made of discarded Halo 4 copies or again do they not care and are just filling in what would be expected?
P.S. To the forge community, I hope 343i is paying you guys in some way because you’ve done alot of work for them with Halo 5. Just saying.
Or the maps being used for the “Anniversary Throwback” playlist work with the movement mechanics. it seems a little early to condemn the playlist.
To be honest, I had to read your post a few times before I understood what you’re trying to say. Let me get this straight: you’re saying the new movement mechanics aren’t going to work well on old maps, therefore the classic playlist means 343 is embarrassing themselves? Because that’s what it seems like you’re saying.

I apologize for any confusing you but if you want to simply it then yes that’s kind of what I’m saying.
My point is that something people said will never work is being thrown at us right now and it could have ill affects if implemented on 343i in the ways I see it. Hopefully this will clear it up better and if it does I’ll just stamp this on the OP as a TL DR.

I’m not condemning the playlists but the idea of it working properly. Also I’m sure of a decent amount of amps from Halo CE that could accommodate halo 5’s movement mechanics without any alterations. I was going to make a point of this in the OP but i assumed it’d be pointless since others likely already think that. Didn’t want to come off as an -Yoink-.

It’ll be interesting to see how this plays out.

I agree. This will either change everything of implode the earth…so I guess change everything as we know it.
Fair enough.
I wonder what maps they will be using.
- Battle Creek - Damnation - Rat Race - Prisoner - Chill Out - Derelict - Chirion TL-34 - Wizard - Longest - Hang 'Em High - Sidewinder - Boarding Action - Blood Gulch

Sheriff: -Yoink!-, we need more rope.
Deputy: Why’s that?
Sheriff: Because you never hang em low, YA HANG EM HIGH!
A quote my brother said to me whenever we played that map.
