I would go nuts for a playlist full of remakes in matchmaking. I’d love to see a 4v4 or 5v5 arena playlist featuring H2, H3, maybe some Halo Reach forge maps. Could be a mix of Slayer, CTF, etc. I’ll have links for some of them in my list below. Some of these are just amazing remakes. Just so well done. It’d be great to have them in matchmaking.
H2 Terminal
H3 High Ground
H2 Zanzibar (H3 Last Resort)
HR Boardwalk
H3 Narrows
HR Sword Base
Honorable mention:
H3 Avalanche - would probably fit in BTB better
H2 Coagulation - BTB
It can’t be too hard right? Play testing is probably time consuming, but if that’s all that stands in the way of opening these up to matchmaking, why not? Some of these maps are INSANE. So much time and effort went into them, and forgers could really use the recognition for their good work.
That’s my list, but what other maps might you really dig?
(Also feel free to share links if you find better versions of the maps I linked, I can update this post with the better link)
I am all for this. BTB, Objective, and Slayer Throwback playlists with 1:1 remakes of old maps would be great.
Though, if the maps are 1:1 remakes, the gameplay would need to emulate the previous games so that the maps play more like the originals. This would require toggling Spartan Abilities off, adjusting movement speed and jump height, and bumping the radar up to 25m.

I think some of the larger maps work great with Spartan abilities as is. But I’d be open to a playlist that has them disabled

i was just sayin this earlier today. maps like narrows, rig, and ascension i think would be just fine with spartan abilities, and would probably actually make ground pounding and clambering fun (clamber on rig and ground pound after the man cannon on narrows would be fun)
plus just watching the walkthrough on these old maps made me miss playing them

Same bro. I got the feels. I wish I had more friends that played halo so I could give them a ride in custom games

can’t play throwback maps because Halo lost all its players due to not having good maps like the throwback maps. makes your head hurt if you think about it

Amazing Idea
would also add some variety in the maps that we are able to play on
