I’ve realized one of the painful reasons that Halo 5 is becoming so stale is due to the very restrictive map rotations. So, I’ve been thinking of officially diving into Halo 5’s Forge and coming up with a few quality maps with only 1 goal in mind:
Take 2 old Halo maps, from any game(s) in the series, and create new, fresh takes on what they would be like if they were mashed together into something completely new.
The take on this is relatively complex, because each map is memorable for 1 reason or another, and mashing them with another may make these said maps either flow terribly, or even look…ugly.
In either case, I’m thinking of having mashups in 2 varieties for differing reasons. One of my heart’s ambitions is Breakout-styled map mashups specifically built for Breakout, CTF, and Ricochet, with the latter being priority. The 2nd case, being completely natural-looking Arena-styled maps that would fit in with the dev maps.
So, I ask the Halo 5 Community, what are your suggestions or what maps would be most enjoyed to play on mashed up? Currently seeking H2-H5 only and Reach (no CE due to H5 gameplay elements).
