its terrible and hasnt been good since H2 let it be and put better maps in im tired of playing whole shutout games spawning right next to people
The point of Shutout is to control one of the towers.
Unlike Simplex, which has few power positions and is just a sandwhich fest. Hate that map in FFA.
they both suck again lockout was ok in H2 its been remade in every game ever since and its been crappy every time 343 needs to stop and do something or step aside because this is unacceptable
The map won’t work with the new features in this game. It wasn’t balanced for armor abilities or ordnance drops. Although sprint makes things faster, it makes it just a little too hectic. FFA throwdown is the best option.

Ramir3z, that only works if the spawns on the map work properly.
If you spawn bottom blue and can’t get a tower within the first thirty seconds, have fun getting spawnkilled the entire -Yoink- game.
As much as I love Lockout, Shutout isn’t an FFA map at all.
Nobody wants to play Bottom Blue spawn-for-all.
This is exactly the reason I don’t want maps to come back as perfect remakes.
Sidewinder from Halo: CE was remade into Avalanche. Notice how the maps are extremely different but keep the same layout. Lockout wasn’t made for the new sandbox, that’s why it doesn’t play well.
Yeah, Shutout is really bad for FFA. It’s nothing but camping and spawn killing the whole game.
I think, that Shutout is a really good FFA map, especially in rumble pro, I have always loved this map since the glory days of Halo 2.
Agreed. Shutout works very poorly with Halo 4’s mechanics and sandbox, especially with the long-range DMR and LR in PLs.
It’s the worst map. I hate it.
i actually like the map but only if its on Pro settings… AA’s dont work on this map at ALL!
Shutout+DMR=crrrrrrrrrrringe…
Only FFA map I actually enjoy. Love this map.
