I’ve been playing Halo 5 consistently since it launched and recently have not seen Orion in any Playlist rotation. I typically stick to slayer, swat, and whatever is featured but I haven’t played on Orion in weeks. Seriously weeks no exaggeration. I play for about 2 hours a night during the week. And as much as possible on Sat and Sun but I can’t seem to get put into a match on this map. Then rest of the maps rotate pretty consistently maybe a little heavy on Regret and Eden from time to time but it’s not predictable. Most times I stay in the same lobby in between games to help ensure a good rotation, which typically works but I swear that I have not played on Orion since before thanks giving. What’s the deal?
They took it out of rotation because people didn’t like it and it had problems.
Orion was removed because of an exploit.
But honestly it was a garbage map and I’m glad it was removed regardless of the reason.
It was removed because it’s a terrible map. I think they’re going to work on it to make it less terrible, but I don’t truthfully remember.

Yeah, 343 doesn’t know how to make good maps.
Well, you’re late. That map was gone after the first couple of weeks.
The map was removed from matchmaking due to an exploit, but its gonna get readded on december 15.

Good. I for once actually liked Orion.
Oh good to know. I did hate that map but was curious why I hadn’t seen it. What was the exploit? Like an old super jump out of the map or something?

I think this and people missing the power up in the middle and dying forcing bans…or maybe I had too many drinks during Warzone today…
I liked Orion too. It was the first map I played in H5 and the first map I got a killing frenzy. I’m happy to hear it’s coming back.
Too many people in high competitive complained about the map. I believe a big issue was that the winning team could control the high ground and force enemies to spawn out in the field and then gun them down from range.

Haha I died twice in one match trying to get that stupid power up. I hope they bring it back though it was a crappy map but it was at least an extra map for the rotation. I like it better than Pegasus for sure.
