This mysterious structure’s modern day purpose is a timeless and bloody testament to its sanctimonious past.
Discuss your thoughts the Halo Reach Forge World remake of Sanctuary, Asylum, here.
Needs to be replaced with an actual Sanctuary remake. Like MLG Sanctuary. There are quite a few updated ones other than the one that is currently being used by MLG and they are a lot better, just MLG refuses to use them because it wasn’t made by them.
Asylum breaks ring and has a couple jetpack abused spots that give Red Team an advantage. Which could be solved by removing jetpacks (especially from Arena) but that still leaves the problem of the broken ring.
Which is why it should just be replaced with an actual Sanctuary remake thats already out there, instead of completely remaking it.
Quick fix, replace it with the current MLG Sanctuary. Overkill’s Sanctum remake would be ideal. There are a few other incredible remakes out there too.
MLG’s asylum is better in just about every way. And the framerate doesn’t drop to single digits when you zoom in .
another vote for MLG’s Sanctuary to replace Asylum.
arent we using the EXACT SAME semi-unupdated sanctuary that released with the disk?
updated one. look around theres millions of ones that are ALL STRICT-UPGRADES to this map. theres so many terribly forged spots on sanc currently, from giant jumps, to super sick jumping on top of the map, the whole map is a mess.
The best Sanctuary remake that I know of has got to be Overkill VR’s Sanctum. I’ve played it over the course of its development, and right now it’s just about perfect.
I’ve heard of another Sanctuary remake called Shrine that’s received some praise, but I believe either one would be a good improvement over Asylum.
At the very least a better version should be used, although I’d rather let Sanctuary die altogether.
Aside from which map we should replace it with.
I’ll give some feedback on the current map just in case they don’t exchange them out 
Frame Rate issues has got to be my number one thing. Sniper to sniper, Snipe bridge to their objective, NR to objective. With a sniper if you get more than three people running around in one place, frame rate issues.
Two places you can get outside of the map. Both on blue spawn side. One just along the other side of the ledge of Needle Rifle with the glass wall and then again just right behind it, in the rock formation. Its not only reachable with a jetpack but that does make it very easy.
I personally don’t mind the snipe to snipe sight, it speeds up gameplay.

Yep, this map just needs to be replaced with Overkill’s, I havent noticed any Framerate drop on 4 player splitscreen, and it actually is a good remake, not that crappy “remake” we got now
Yes ovekill’s remake is amazing. Please use it.
Take the sniper out of Asylum and it’ll be better by far.
Please just replace this with a more accurate remake. It was nice to have Asylum at launch, but there are so many better versions of Sanctuary at the moment. Asylum has frame rate lag looking from sniper hut to sniper hut, z fighting on the outside of the ring and is unbalanced due to the slight asymmetry of the map, all reasons other maps haven’t been accepted for MM, so why should Asylum be any different.
> Take the sniper out of Asylum and it’ll be better by far.
That would defeat the flow of the map and everyone would be crowding Ring 2 even more so than before.
> Take the sniper out of Asylum and it’ll be better by far.
So much for a Sanctuary remake if we are taking the snipers out, it would slow down gameplay.
As mentioned above, Sanctum by Xx Overkill VR, is a fantastic remake and shouldn’t be implemented in Arena at least, if not all.
Dear 343,
Please replace Asylum with sanctum in default matchmaking.

Asylum to be replaced by Sanctuary remake MLG uses.
Then just set up the map like Asylum is, with weapons spawns.
If not then the map needs fixing big time, spawns in Multi Team are broken.
Red and Blue start spawns are ok, but Green and Orange aren’t. Put then on each side carbines. Remove spawns from ring, spawning there usually leads to death.
Asylum works fine for Red vs Blue though. So dont change anything for that.

I haven’t noticed any problems with asylum. My question is, does Sanctum use natural terrain? I hate when we get grey maps.
The maps should be removed or improved because in Team games especially Squad Slayer. It is too open you can be spawn killed especially in Squad. Also who ever control the center wins the game. Also there is a ledge on blue side that is off map where people can jetpack up to and shoot you from though you can be shot at from all over the map there also.
The maps needs the following changes:
- The Sniper spawn needs more cover.
- The Red Side rocks near the base ramp need moved around because it is hard to get the ramp when you respawn there.
- The center needs to be redesigned so that control of it does not determine.
- There needs to have more DMRs there is only two on the entire map. Replace the plasma repeaters with DMRs. Alternately remove Slayer on Asylum as choice for voting in Team Slayer and especially Squad Slayer.
Hey I noticed that you guys like my map so I’ll here is a run through as well as a gameplay video for those of you that haven’t downloaded it yet.
Walkthrough
Gameplay
And lastly a video showing how a few tweaks to Asylum can make it perform and play better however it still needs a massive overhaul with the cliff and LoS from sniper to sniper and all that.
