Vertikull here,

Tell me, what map, in CE, can be described as the pinnacle CE Map?

  • Battle Creek
  • Hang 'em High
  • Blood Gulch

These three are, to me, possible contenders.

What do you think?

Vertikull out

My favorite halo map of all time is by far Prisoner from Halo CE,
however I think that they would be the ones that you mentioned, also damnation, and chill out

personally I think that every single map from CE is special and perfect and honestly have the best maps of the series. There isn’t a single map that isn’t unique, no map uses things from the other. If you notice in halo 5, there are way too many maps that are similar and even use the same exact objects in maps and I don’t like that but in CE the maps are so diverse and unique there is not a single one that is not fun to play and I find CE maps to be the best in the series, there were some very memorable ones in every game obviously though like stonetown, the cage, the pit, coliseum, ascension, ivory tower, sword base, lockout, but CE by far had the best diversity of maps

I respect everyone’s right to look back fondly at CE multiplayer, but for me the maps are a strange combination of bad aesthetics (by modern Halo standards) and quirky gameplay (also compared to later Halo). Derelict and Blood Gulch were okay, but maps like Chiron and Boarding Action are proof that game still had a lot to learn.

Hang 'Em High, just because for me it’s loaded with nostalgia, and it’s a fun map to play on.

A lot of truth here.

Maps like Blood Gulch, Battle Creek, Hang 'Em High, and Sidewinder are good maps but they’re symmetrical, which to me doesn’t show a lot of depth as a studio when it comes to map building. Once you can build an asymmetrical map, you know what you’re doing.

Chill Out is perhaps my favorite of the game, but some of the others can be quite silly.

Battle Creek, Chill Out, and Blood gulch(cause of red vs blue)
