Too open too uninspiring! Am I the only one? 
I prefer the king edward potato myself. I assume this is about the Russet map. Can you actually give your issues about the map rather than saying it’s uninspiring?
Something about it feel very off to me. When I’m on Russet I feel it plays a lot like Hang "em High, my least favorite map.

I doubt it very much.

I also dislike Hang em high, but that’s because I’m not very good on open maps (I’m not that great on close one either lol).

Yukon Gold fan here. Keep up the potato works, 343.
What is russet?
You just have to play it similar to truth in regards to halo 5 maps. Your encounters happen quick and just take the time to learn the map

A potato and a colour (as well as a Halo map).

Certainly. It has no theme. Lots of brown and bland yellow colors. It’s something somebody spit out of Forge due to its overall size and shape (unconfirmed). Giant giant sitelines with absolutely no cover and therefore no incentive to push middle. As such, games involve running around the perimeter in blobs picking off strays. It’s a bad map.

I see it come up often in Super Fiesta.

Russet is a Forge map that 343 included in matchmaking. Details here.
Personally, I like the map. Feels very similar to The Rig and plays pretty similar to Truth. Still never played it outside of community slayer and customs.
In my experience, I found pushing the middle and then out to the edges was always the way to go. Although I also think that the sentinel beam is a good weapon to use to get 16 kills 
I like the map. You really get to utilize all of the Halo 5 upgrades. I have only played it 3 times but really enjoyed it!!
Not much of a fan. It just feels cluttered to me with too much verticality. The amount of geometry obstacles everywhere that restrict clean encounters is probably my least favorite part. Personally, I would have much preferred to have seen Vestige or perhaps Analogue instead of Russet. But, in the end, I am pleased that new maps were added to Slayer and SWAT.
I am just glad that we got some more variety.
Ive only ever played it in Super Fiesta so I dont know how it plays in normal Slayer, but the huge sight lines get a little bit tiring.
The map, at least in my opinion, feels a lot like Halo 2’s Ivory Tower, or the Reach remake, Reflection. I don’t know why, maybe it’s the design, or maybe just the color scheme.
As for whether or not I like it, I’m sort of indifferent to it, as I am with most Forge maps. I don’t really care, unless it’s White Cell, that map is the worst.
