I didn’t mind it that much in Reach, but now it seems like everyone is voting for: Exile (For Dominion), Ragnarok (For BTB), and Haven (For everything else). Has anybody else noticed this?
Noticing it is an understatement. Personally I think they should remove Ragnarok and Exile from BTB and give the other maps a chance. But then people would cry because they don’t gt their mantis.
Yes. I understand the point you have put forward and something needs to be done.
Removing them is not the answer but more maps are. They are great maps’ in a small pool of maps so they will always be popular. The problem is that I may have just played the map last turn or before it but people just joining have not and will vote for it.
More maps.
The community is excited about the inclusion of the Mantis – give it a few weeks or months for the MM population to adjust to the changes and seek variety.
That’s because those are the only semi-decent maps, with the exception of Ragnarok. Hopefully the map pack in December will have good maps on it and that will cut down on playing the same map over and over.

Lol, remove a map because people like it? That seems a bit silly to me. Why would that be a smart move for 343? If you remove the map people like the most then you’re going to piss a lot of people off.
I’ve said it a million times. Get rid of the voting system. It is what causes this issue.

I actually sort of agree with this. I miss the Halo 3 MM style. The menu system was superior too.
I’m at a point where I’d like to see maps go through rotation rather than be voted on as well. I love these maps, but from my experience it’s like there’s only 3 maps in halo 4 mm. The only time I really get to see different ones is when I play regicide and flood mode.
Haven is the most played map ive been on it halo 4 that should not be
add in some forge maps there are three maps that have not been put into MM
Exile shouldn’t even be an option in BTB, it’s too small a map for that and vehicle placement tied with spawn locations are poorly thought out. As far as dominion goes…it would work if all the vehicles aside from ghosts and mongooses were eliminated.
Ragnarok (Valhalla) has always been a terrible map, especially from the blue side which has a map disadvantage, I find. I commonly find myself spawning in an open field and immediately being sniped.
Haven is a map best fit for maybe 4-6 total players at a time, after that with the faulty spawn system it becomes incredibly irritating. So FFA Oddball, and Regicide work…everything else, not so much.
Where are Impact, Erosion and Ravine? I don’t even know if they’re BTB maps, but they’re missing from every playlist i’ve visited.
Its true though, 9/10 it seems like the maps you mention get voted in if they appear as an option.
Update from another thread: Impact, Erosion and Ravine are forge maps, so apparently they’re just empty shells for the time being. I think we’ll start to see some very cool BTB community maps soon.
