The next map pack

I’ll get right to the point, 343i please, please! do not feel bad about making Halo map remakes in future Reach map packs! Some of the greatest maps in Halo History are in the older games. The #1 reason Halo is loosing players is because of its maps! Now dont get me wrong you guys did an AMAZING job with Defiant map pack. probably the best maps currently in the game! But I would just like to say, we need remakes and dont make any radcal changes either I mean we like those old maps for a reason! if you change them too much they will be diffrent ( I mean look a Hemmorage)

Here is a list of the following maps I think the majority of the community would want back:

  1. Sandtrap
  2. Valahla (possibly)
  3. The Pit
  4. Guardian (awesome free for all map)
  5. Blood Gulch ( a REAL remake)

Now for Firefight:

  1. Crater
  2. Last Exit
  3. Lost Platoon

Now If I left any maps out please post in the comments section, I know there were a lot of good maps on CE for PC.
Thanks! :slight_smile:

I want to say a lot. I really do. But every sentence ends up turning into a flame. So all I will say is no.

But I wouldn’t mind 1 or 2 of those maps mentioned having its husk added into another Forge World that is either Covenant, Human or… other. They don’t have to be big worlds, just 3 BTB maps sized.

Yeah I undertand your reasoning there, but just in my opinion I would like to have Sandtrap over everything else. I mean that was a map that me and my friend could play custom games on for hours and never get sick of it. The Elephants were really an intresting map object as well! :slight_smile:

I can understand the desire to play these maps in reach, I want to as well. That said reach needs to have some of it’s own well known maps. Not to say that it doesn’t, I just haven’t heard much, I’ll just blame time though.

Anyway we could get both, but only if the maps use of the new forge is worked on as much as the map itself.

I don’t like the idea of re-makes anymore. Considering the previous maps were made for Halo, and not for Reach I doubt a lot of them would play well. I’d rather 343 focus on some new 4v4 arena styled maps, and non cluttered ones at that. Condemned is a horrible map. Cluttered piece of trash.

well I mean if they were to remake it they would remake it for reach… so it wouldent nescisarly be cluttered… i mean reflection is a good map and thats a remake…

Agreed. We should be able to DL remakes for free such as Bungie did for the remake of Chill Out. We want to see newer and more different styles of maps. The shipped maps with the game were simply Campaign based (literally) or forged. -.-

Bungie confrimed that you’ll never run out of room on halo reach, unlimited amount of maps… They can create / remake all the maps and place them onto reach.

all that matters is Big Team Battle.

you forgot terminal, headlong…what are you crazy? Halo 3 maps were good but Halo 2 is where the maps are at!

this big team halo2 maps are horrible. nobody wants them back.

What about some of the h1 and h2 maps? Instead of having forgeworld remakes in the classic playlist, why not have real creations of those maps?

> this big team halo2 maps are horrible. nobody wants them back.

HA thats a matter of opinion. if we had a poll asking for Halo 2’s BTB maps back the “yes” would win.

I would like to see a competitive map pack.
Maps that can be used for Arena and MLG without having to mess too much in forge world.

Enough with catering for BTB players for now.

The Noble Map Pack and Defiant Map Pack were both marvelous additions to Halo: Reach’s multiplayer experience. Certain Affinity has really showed us once again their great talent in map making, but on top of that giving us a taste of the world of Reach and it’s story, map by map. We have 343 to thank to showing us they are up to the task!

Nevertheless Halo fans, there is more to be dished out on the marketplace for Halo: Reach DLC! Let us collaborate and incorporate our opinions and ideas with one another to answer this question…

What Do You Want To See In The Next Halo: Reach Map Pack?

Map wise? Game types? (Invasion) More FireFight? What part of Reach should the map be taken place? Style? (Big maps? Small maps?) This includes what not to do as well, by critiquing the previous maps etc.

Discuss your thoughts here. Remember to keep it clean so 343 can take the most out of our input!

Valhalla and Guardian and I’m set forever.

Really small maps. Every halo game has had a few really small maps and most of the time one of these was one of the best maps in the game. Halo 2 had lockout and midship. Halo 3 had guardian. Reach needs more small maps. That being said I’d love to see some remakes. I want Valhalla more than anything. To be honest I think that is one of the best maps from any game. Other than that I’d love to see Guardian, Highground, or The Pit remade.

I want one more FF map. I loved Unearthed. I would also love one BTB map that is a like Sandtrap but in a Jungle setting, think Delta Halo. Then 3 small maps as well. I think we have enough mid/large maps. We need smaller ones. A true spiritual successor to the Pit would be nice, Anchor 9 doesn’t count.

I would love to see REAL remakes of previous halo maps, a real Lockout, Midship, Wizard/WarLock, Beaver Creek, Guardian, Narrows remake none of this community remakes on Forge its not the same and it doesnt feel right to play an old fav map on some weird terrain lol

Whatever the case, if it’s multiplayer I want completely forgeable maps. With flexible geometry, and a lot of it. What map they make with this I’m not concerned with. Just so long as I’m able to make big maps from scratch , then I’ll be happy. Hell given the above criteria you should be able to make any map you want. Be it big or small and whatever geometry it’s composed of.

That and maps in general using the new forge. Take for instance tempest. I could care less if it confined me the way it does if you could delete all of the geometry in it until there is a small box to use. Like how foundry and sandbox worked.

I think we should have Halo 2 maps remade, like terminal and that one map that had the conveyor belts with crates on them as well as contamination or whatever that BTB map was called… oh and tombstone too.
