Reason 1. It is so easy to remake via forge mode! I mean c’mon!
Reason 2. Valhalla is not the most original Halo 3 map in my opinion. It resembles Blood Gultch in the sense that it is a canyon with two bases on opposite ends.
Reason 3. Why didn’t you guys choose what, from what I saw, the most wanted map… Sandtrap? ELEPHANTS! xD
Reason 4. Simply the fact that Last Resort would have been the best remake. Why? Not because it is the best map, but because as of now, it is IMPOSSIBLE to make a giant spinning metallic wheel on forge.
This isn’t a rant. I’m just saying that next time the remaking process begins, think about community, originality, and forge compatibility. If anyone wants to add on to this, please do by replying to this thread!
I would tolerate Ragnarok if there weren’t two mantises, and I would love it if there was at least a rocket launcher or chaingun at each base similar to the missle pod.
I do however love most of the new medium sized maps, such as Haven and Solace.
Blood Gulch/ Valhalla has been in every game as a tradition. They’re not trying to bring back all of the old maps. I know Bungie did with like Blackout on H3 but this isn’t Bungie. Let them do their thing, I didn’t pay 100 bucks to play the same maps over again.
I can’t be the only one who noticed this, but after playing Halo 4, I realized the gameplay would go PERFECTLY with Sandtrap, honestly. In terms of how things work? It would probably work out better than Ragnarok has, and I enjoy Ragnarok (when I’m not losing).
> oh but at 1st people loved the idea having it back… You people really need to make up your minds… I like the map…
The Halo community will never make up its mind.
Almost everything people wanted fixed in Reach have been fixed in Halo 4. However, everyone suddenly wants it back to the way it was in Halo Reach. They’re like a bunch of crack addicts with ADD.
As if there’s a single forge map in Halo 4 that can accommodate a map of that size, not to mention trying to match that kind of terrain would be nearly impossible.
Anyway, I hated that map in Halo 3 and I have no idea why they would remake it now. There are dozens of maps that are in front of Valhalla in line.
Keeping in mind the new armor abilities and sprint. Think of how much faster we can cover ground now.
Foundry and Guardian might be a little small. MIGHT. But they’d definitely play different.
Now, Sandtrap… I would like to see Sandtrap again (but I don’t think it would play the same with DMRs and plasma pistols for everyone. Vehicle combat was important on that map). Even though 90% of the time the teams just drove the elephant tanks into each other and made the match a giant cluster in between the two teams.
because it it’s a now iconic map, but the problem is, valhala was designed with actual weapon and vehicle balance, halo 4 is not, thus it directly clashes, when 343 corrects the horrible imbalances then ragnorok could be a awesome map…but for however long that vehicles are made of tissue paper, power weapons literraly fcall from the sky, and everyone can spawn with a micro sniper rifle, ragnorok is gonna stray a horrible map (actually all btb maps are horrible thanks to these imbalances.
Valhalla had very long sightlines. Whoever controlled the hill had easy shots into the enemy spawn.
Sandtrap was a MUCH BETTER map imo. Even if you controlled the long center piece, you still didnt have easy shots into the spawns. Plus you had the huge elephan support vehicles.
Imagine if they made a remake. And not a copy remake, but an ACTUAL remake, where instead of elephants you got to drive MAMMOTHS!!!
The epicness it would be…it would be OVER NINE THOUSAAAAAAAAND!
@xCrimsonLegendx: Um… it is easy to remake. In fact, I owned a remake in Halo: Reach. Even if in Halo 4 it is hard, it isn’t impossible. Making a giant metallic spinning wheel, however, is in fact impossible.
