Is this really all the maps until March?

Really? I’m surprised nobody is talking about this. 10 maps I think it is will get stale way before March. Hope we get more before then.

I talked about it two or three times during the beta a month ago. These maps are bad. They are claustrophobic, pedestrian, overly sweaty, and unimaginative.

And nobody cares.

But, the numbers of players online will mysteriously fall. And people will be in the forums debating aim assist, battle passes, and how the warthog drives…

And still the number of players will fall, and it will be because they didn’t capture the imaginations of these kids. And nobody will give a flip about whether they’re great Esports maps or not, because nobody will be playing.

Nah, I read an interview with Joe Staten by IGN iirc, and these are the launch maps. I was very shocked when I read that.

“As we prepare for a significant increase in the number of players jumping into Halo Infinite on launch day, December 8th, we want to ensure all our systems are good-to-go. While you may experience some bumps and bugs during this beta period, it does mark the official start of Halo Infinite Season 1, with all day-one maps and modes enabled as well as the full Season 1 Battle Pass.” - Joseph Staten

Edit: added the exact quote

@Tosevite_187 @JMertz22 Read the recent blog post on Waypoint covering the Beta’s launch, they go into detail about what we have, what we’re getting and when. As for my source for the two new BTB maps coming on the 8th, my memory fails me and I cannot remember where I found that information lol

I’ll have to go read it. I hope I’m wrong, but Staten himself said we have all day-one maps enabled. Maybe they’re adding more on the second day lol

Quality over quantity anytime. Call of Duty Vanguard is getting trashed right now for having too many maps and most of them are sub-par.

None of these maps are bad and right now I’m fine with that.

Nice maps, but they’re sure to get old after a while.

I hope they’ll add some old maps like Bloodgulch for BTB, I think it would fit nicely.

Yes! That’s what we’re missing right now. 2 or 3 remakes could have fleshed out the offering a little more. Most Halo games have shipped with a few remakes of fan favorites, and we don’t have any right now.

Keep in mind some maps are designed more for a certain game type or gametypes. Like that one map 4v4 I’ve only played one flag on. Bazar is more of a 2 flag map. So if they update the playlists to be more specific you may end up with ~3 4v4 slayer maps.

I don’t know. They are all good maps but I can’t imagine them keeping a large player base interested through the holiday season- especially when the game doesn’t necessarily fit with what’s popular.

I’m shocked that not a single map so far has a teleporter. Did they just forget that teleporters have been in tons of maps since CE?

Or what about map interaction? Where are my gates that I can open by sneaking into the enemy base and pressing a button? Where are my bridges that I can lower to open a new route through the map? Where are the conveyor belts or spinning wheel (Zanzibar) or literally anything else? Not all maps need one of these, but many of them should have something.

Please.
