How is everyone enjoying the new maps and armors?
I’ll be honest I’m really waiting for the customs browser. With only two maps you basically see all there is to see within a couple of hours. I think the new maps are pretty alright. I think they play well in Halo 3. I do like having slightly larger maps for 4v4. I wasn’t really a fan of Edge back in the Halo Online days but I would say I have enjoyed my time in it so far (now I want to see other Halo Online maps come in). I just want the customs browser now. I feel like I’ve already done what there was to do and it’s kind of boring now.
I’ve got to say, everything is starting to look more improved and more deserved to earn items, as of everything that I’ve seen so far, it looks perfect to me. I have noticed a lot of issues that need to be fixed, but then again it’s all in beta lol
In my eyes, I would probably change some things but it’s gonna look hella good either way, can’t wait for it to drop.
I’m loving it. When the custom browser drops, man thats where the fun begins. I got so many games planned
Here are my thoughts on this flight:
-ODST armors look so sick
-Both maps are a little too big for 4v4, but would be perfect for 8v8
-Waterfall is a gorgeous map and I love it. Edge looks like a H4 and 5 map, and doesn’t seem to fit with H3’s design
-I think the back pieces are a bit odd. The Elite shield and swords look out of place, and I can’t see a spartan ever wearing one of those. The axe looks silly and completely out of place. Doesn’t seem very futuristic and just kind of floats there.
I just don’t want Halo MCC turning into Fortnite, with these cartoony armor additions that don’t belong or fit with the art style.
Liking the armor sets and the two maps:
Waterfall has an ambient like H3 and Edge like H4 and H5 and doesn´t quit fit the H3 gameplay, and i think Edge would be great with a 5 v 5 playlist of objective, if it was 8 v 8 it would be odd in some ways, but that can be tested for future flights a think.
I have enjoyed the maps, nice to get 2 new ones after all these years.

Eh. Im not too huge on most of the armors, to be honest. Was hoping we would see more Reach content (specifically Forge Objects which were teased a while ago but never brought up).
The new maps play well for the most part but Edge is too large for 4v4 and Waterfall has awful Slayer spawns. Waterfall will be great for objective gametypes but Edge is a classic Slayer experience if I ever saw one, but it could probably work with objective gametypes too.
The armors are kinda ugly, didn’t see anything I liked. The animated nameplates are cool. The maps are good IMO. I just wish they were going into H2A as that is the playlist that desperately needs maps.

Same bro, my friends and I have been waiting for the Custom Browser update for forever.
I’m waiting for more Halo Online maps because are fantastic
I’m liking the new FTR armors, especially when used in conjunction with the base ODST helmet and gen1 techsuit. it’s basically everything everybody wanted back in 2009.
waterfall is solid, a lot of people keep saying it’s too big, but it’s honestly pretty small and close to what I’d call perfect.
edge on the other hand is kinda gimpy, it’s too small for 8v8, but too big for 4v4. sadly I gotta say this is too much like typical halo 3 maps; assembly, highground, and isolation being perfect examples. it’s only crime is lacking vehicles just like assembly.
all I want going forward are the 10 finished H:O elite armors found in the one H:O build, and the other maps icebox and reactor (alongside what other original and finished maps they have hidden, like skybridge or drydock)

It’s bout time we Elite players got some damn content, including piece by piece customisation for Elites on Reach they said they’d introduce, which I still haven’t forgotten about 343.
I am really enjoying the new maps. it really shows how 343 listens to there players
I’m really liking it. Took me a while to figure out how to get on the platforms in waterfall though.
Has the flight ended yet?
