We all know the maps we would want from previous Halo games in Halo 4 but let’s take Halo aside and look at other games. What maps from other games would you think could play well on Halo or you would just like to play on because nobody plays that game anymore.
Mexican Mission from Timespitters 2 would be at the top of my list, if I could play that in Halo the only thing missing would be monkeys.
Gridlock from Gears of War. I love that map, all i can say
Firebase White from Mass Effect 3. I just like the way this maps plays
I agree with you about Gridlock. One of the best Gears of War maps and theres already a Gridlock remake. Just go search the file browser. Its pretty accurate too.

Why waste time jumping over rocks (which of course there are not enough of, 343’s rock hating be -Yoink!-) to get your EZ-modo headshots when you can get them the moment you spawn
I hereby propose that all maps be removed from the game and replaced with flat floors.
On the aforementioned floors will be varying jpegs of rocks and eggheads.
Any of the maps from Metroid Prime: Hunters. Some even look Halo. More specifically the maps: Sic Transit,Transfer Lock, Harvester, VDO Gateway, Alinos Perch, and Subterranean. Metroid is cool, awesome art design
Simple. Go in Forge and have a go (I sucked at forging decent maps in Reach- i just kept going with this one and learned a few tricks with the magnets to make everything line up).I have reconstructed a map from Space Marine- Waste Management, aptly renamed “Space Management”- though I cannot upload the complete version due to not having GOLD
I plan on remaking Basilica from Space Marine and (once I get Gold):
> Battle canyon from CEA.
> One of the smaller maps from MOH Allied Assault.
Even if you suck at Forge, find someone who is half-decent at it and has the same game interests as you, or you could just use the file browser.

Facility is a terrible map and would play Halo TERRIBLY. Complex was solid but I don’t think it would play Halo well either.
Perfect Dark’s Skedar could work well enough in Halo 4. Would be fun for FFA gametypes mostly, potentially also Oddball or KOTH.
Also, I think ME3’s Firebase Glacier would play an interesting game of Doubles, and Firebase White could play 4v4 KOTH or Extraction.
MGO’s Sunset Silo would probably play an alright game of Doubles as well, although I think a lot of the cover would need to be modified to fit Halo’s playstyle so a direct port could be iffy.
Not any particular map, but I would love to see TF2’s Push cart game mode in Halo. I think that would be tons of fun with the right adjustments for Halo.
I would love to play CTF on Quake Arena’s CTFQ4. The symmetrical one in space and the Snipers had a clear shot across the map at the top of each base and so many jump pads you were bound to puke. Now that was a bloody Soccer match.
Vigilance, Fish Hook, Crossroads, and Frost Fire from Socom 2. Some of the best MP maps ever in any shooter. Pretty much all the Socom 2 maps were spectacular. Those 4 stand out the most though.
People spend too much time in the Halo 4 section of these forums. All you ever hear is DMR this and boltshot that. It is sickening. The real value of these forums are in community creations. For those of you wanting to play FB Glacier from Mass Effect, I give you this:
I’m pretty sure we already have rainbow road. I play it all the time. Not sure it is the same one from SM Kart since I never played that but I know rainbow road is an enormously popular mongoose racing track.
I have Mario Kart 64 remakes on my file share. Bowsers Castle, Banshee Boardwalk, Wario Stadium, Sherbet Land, and Koopa Troopa Beach. My remake of Rainbow Road will be done in the next week or so. Here’s some links to posts about them:
