Since last maps and gametype update, I played the remake of the sanctuary map of halo 2 a few times, but only in the CTF. I have to say that i liked the map but the gameplay took a lot more time than any other map of CTF. I think that the reason is that the map is big for 8 players.
What are your opinion about this map and how do you feel the CFT gamplay???
I haven’t played it, but they made CTF so the flag doesn’t have to be at home to score and I think it has a 12 second return timer. Those things are to compensate for the size of the map.
Doesn’t work too well IMO. I played a game where the enemy team outslayed my team by at least twice my teams kills and were still unable to get a single capture. They certainly tried but the flag never moved beyond the middle building and even that was only once. The sheer size of the map is the root of the problems. It seem like a team should be able to effectively spawn trap their opponents in order to get the flag out.
It’s ironic how they pulled Fathom CTF out for having too long games and too much ties and then they bring Sanctuary CTF which is even worse off in terms of ties. The only good comments on the map I have are that its structure is true to the original and it looks good for a forge map.
I was excited about it but it does seem too big and it’s harder to see red Spartans against that tan stone.
Amplified, Onslaught, The Pit, Narrows, & Guardian. Im shocked none of these top end maps never made it into slayer,hcs or anything ranked. I feel it would give life to the dull rotation of maps.
Obviously this is very subjective since i love all these maps and felt they all played extremely well for slayer/objective. Maybe one day…
Very excited to test this map out, I loved playing Sanctuary in H2. It’s just in the HCS playlist, correct?

I believe so.

Thanks!
I’m sure the map was scaled to compensate with Halo 5’s movement and abilities
