Everybody is thinking the new FF map will be Floodfight and I personally hope for it too, but I’ve got another idea of what it could be.
The Map is in space near the Pillar of Autumn and you constantly fight Space Banshees, Seraphs and Phantoms as they attack. The Pillar of Autumn is like a big Generator and must be defended as it is being attacked and you are in Sabres (I know it isn’t canon but FF isn’t really canon). I’ve also got an idea if you pilot the Sabre over say a Seraph, you hold your action button to jump out of the Sabre and board the Seraph as it is flying but I wouldn’t expect it in the map. Maybe Pelicans will be accessible and others like the Longsword.
Would be cool but it would get boring quickly. Halo’s ground warfare has a MASSIVE sand box, which means the scenario changes often and doesn’t make firefight boring.
If you were stuck with only a Sabre then that’s like playing with only 2 weapons against 3 enemies (Banshee, Seraph and Phantom). I can tell you now that would get boring fast. Bungie managed to do well with “The Long Night of Solace” Keeping the space fight long enough to entertain but not any more to the point where it would almost feel like grinding.
I disagree with it being boring and repetitive, I like space shooters and the genre works for a firefight scenario. Since playing reach I’ve been hankering for more Halo space fights. A firefight space map would be awesome. Capitol ships could be thrown in since reach had us attacking the corvette.
