Good evening spartans!
I really wish for halo infinite to have more outdoor, open mp maps like high ground, sandtrap, sandbox, vallhala and stuff. Judging from the videos (never had a chance to play halo 4 or 5 mp) there isn’t much open maps.
Yep. Would love more of those types of maps. Especially more alien landscapes.
We have no idea what Infinite has in-store. We pretty much have 2-3 shots of one MP map… which just happens to be indoors.
And hopefully Forge will have more options to make up biomes.
Being too arena focused was a major downside to Halo 5: Guardians’ multiplayer, if you ask me. The fact that we had to play BTB on Community made maps was kind of a disappointment despite how great they looked. One or two maps from 343i themselves wouldn’t have gone amiss. I really do hope we get more open maps in Halo: Infinite.
I think with their competitive focus they wanted to limit earthy textures to facilitate uncomplicated geometry/textures for grenades and movement. This is a valid concern, but also investing in maps that aren’t going to be in the pro circuit is important for the health of the game.
My one big concern for infinite is in its location variety. For Multiplayer, it’s the worry that most of it’s maps will be indoors based much like Halo 5. And the one map we have seen of multiplayer thus far is indeed an Indoor map, and one that looks strikingly similar to Halo 5 map “Fathom” as well. But based on 343’s vocabulary on Halo Infinite being a sandbox game and the Equipment appearing more “fun” than “competitive”, I have hope that MP will take after Halo 3 and return to more open maps and vehicle based playspaces that aren’t forged. Hopefully this Hydro Dam map is one of few Indoor specific maps.
That was one of my complaints with the H5 maps. Too many enclosed/industrial maps (whatever you wanna call them). Really hope there’s more open/natural maps.
I hope that due to feedback from players after Halo 5, 343 will give Infinite more open, natural maps, at launch or post-launch.
most of the maps in halo 5 were good, but lots of un deletable objects, but however, you can glitch out and forge in the skybox. In infinite, i want to see FLAT or more open worlds open to better forging capabilities and maybe custom skyboxes
