Please 343 do a remake of turf…
Here is an example. Although it has the same textures as the Halo 2 map. Here you can compare the two…
Ah, good ol’ Turf. Those were the days.
still one of the best maps
It’s called Landfall now.
> It’s called Landfall now.
In what moon-man language is Landfall considered Turf?
That new urban map in the castle map pack looks like a sucsessor of turf.
miss that map 
They tried to recreate Lockout already. Even omitting choppy frame rate (yup, no wonder forge maps aren’t available in most popular playlists…) this map just isn’t as good as everyone remembers, or just doesn’t quite fit Halo 4’s gameplay.
I would rather see Turf’s spiritual successor that is made with Halo 4’s mechanics in mind. Something like Midship’s offspring called Zealot in Reach. They both looks and feels similar, but Zealot’s more horizontal architecture much better suits sprint and other AAs.

If Forge would let you to remove big containers from outdoor area (just like crates) and let you put some Warthog instead it would somehow resemble Turf. Right now it’s just too different imo.
Artwork is something different as well. I would rather see some old buildings made of bricks and narrow streets with asphalth roads. Maybe New Phoenix’s old town?
That and Lockout/Guardian playable successor.
And Covie-themed arena map, like Midship or Assembly or Zealot.
Am I asking too much?

It definately is the latter. Turf was an awesome map, but due to its size it will never work properly within Halo 4 if Sprint and other AA’s are still intact. If we were to get a proper “Throwback” playlist (no AA’s, no Sprint, no post H3 weapons) it would work for sure.

Agreed. And in that regard Landfall does indeed resemble some of the things that made Turf awesome: a good combo of longer sightlines with tight corners and hectic battles.
But that is the deal with most great classic maps: they worked well because they complemented the game’s gameplay perfectly. In H4 they would play completely different than we remember, which results in damaged nostalgia and the realisation that such maps simply don’t work within H4’s set of rules.
I’d take spiritual successors of maps like Turf over perfect remakes any day.
That’s not saying all maps would suck in H4. I bet Terminal and Containment would work great for instance.
I LOVED Turf. It would be awesome to see it come back.
Sorry about the Amateur photoshop… I still need A LOT of practice lol
Yes. 343 do this. Turf is one of my favorite maps.
I would enjoy a revamped version of Turf, not an exact remake, but more of a nod to it. Almost the same layout, but different, kind of like the difference between Valhalla and Blood Gulch.
There are some great remakes people have done in forge!
Go check them out!
