BTB has been a source of Halo glory for years and each title evolved into something better than the one before(IMO) until Halo 5. I’m not going to travel down the ranty path about H5’s blatant second class BTB treatment. I just hope there is a bright future for 8v8 Slayer and maybe 343i would start trying to redeem themselves now. I think one, dedicated 343i built BTB map, original or remake, would be a great start.
What classic BTB map from Halo games past would you most like to see 343i remake and bring to H5?
Interested to hear some opinions. Thanks!

Instead of remakes, what they should do is actually make a map for BTB instead of all of them being forge-based,

That’s exactly what I mean. 343i. Building BTB maps. Not Forge.

Sorry, when I think remake I think forge.
I want blood gulch to return. Iconic red vs blue.

No worries. We want the same things lol
h4 btb maps were pretty good

Yeah, Remember in Halo 4 when everyone voted for Ragnarok? That map in Halo 4 was beautiful.

H4 in my opinion was some excellent, if not the best BTB action. I remember many CTF matches on Settler that had my heart ready to explode.

Going to go ahead and call myself out that Settler is a Forge map lol. But H4 BTB maps were absolutely dominant. If anything I wasn’t bothered by the occasional Forge map in H4 because the BTB experience was so much fun. Perdition and Ragnarok were probably my favorites.
Man, H4 BTB was awesome. Exile was awesome along with Longbow
I like some of the thoughts and ideas that went into Halo 4 maps for various team sizes.
I agree, Halo 5 forge ruins BTB. That is why I still play Halo 4 BTB on the 360. You would think that a game with a 90GB+ like Halo 5, could have a huge variety of maps that aren’t forge, including classic maps such as: Valhalla, Blood Gulch, Sandtrap, Sidewinder, and many more. What justifies the size of Halo 5 when we get the same forge maps over and over.
Why do forge maps ruin BTB? Who cares who made the maps as long as they play good and look good. Btb has been just fine since the refresh months ago.

Ruin BTB might be an exaggeration. I will rephrase it as forge maps don’t look as nice. Forge is fine for players but corporations such as Microsoft. and 343 should have better maps than gray blocks in 2017. Halo 5 does have a great Forge mode for map creation by players but imagine if every Halo Reach map was designed in Forge World? It would get annoying. Same thing with Halo 5; Forge is fine occasionally but irritating when there is no other maps.

Then go to Halo CE anniversary and play the remade bloodgultch or the remade bloodgultch in Halo 2 anniversary on MCC.
This is why if, in H6, they developed large maps and cross-utilized them for BTB and WZ… more efforts could be dedicated to the actual design execution. You’d have a selection of different BTB dev maps, and then you could play WZ on them as well, resulting in a more diverse map-to-map WZ experience…
You’d have DIFFERENT bases and capture points built INTO the maps themselves, meaning less recycled assets and more unique gameplay from map-to-map…
Sounds like a win-win for all Halo players, whether you play Arena or WZ… It’s a change in design philosophy. Rather than develop for one mode (H5 Warzone while completely axing BTB), develop for MULTIPLE and cross-utilize. Smart game-design… emphasizes creative development and adds value to the game.

Why should he have to go to a broken game to play the most iconic Halo map of all time when the community has shown that it is more than capable of remaking these maps perfectly? Your point actually has no point here, because the MCC games are a wildly different engine from Halo 5. It’s a different game.

I dislike most maps in halo 5 especially btb,they look very bland and generic
