So far, the only map remake we know of in Halo 5 is Truth, a re-imagining of Midship. What other map remakes, if any, would you like to see in Halo 5?
As one of my all-time favorite Halo maps, I would personally love to see The Pit make another return to Halo. Sure, it got remade for Halo 4, but if Midship can be in 3 different Halos, why not The Pit? Guardian would be nice too, but I don’t feel it would work in Halo 5 because of Spartan Abilities (a lack of areas to use Ground Pound, for example). The other map that would definitely work is Beaver Creek. All Spartan Abilities could be used on this map with some tweaking, like making little ledges stick out of the mountainside below the Sniper/Magnum to allow new paths to the Sniper/Magnum through the use of Clamber
What do you think? Should there be any other map remakes, whether on-disc or in DLC packs? Or should 343 just focus on new maps in Halo 5?
Had a thread myself on it and everybody agreed it would work perfectly with Spartan abilities and large scaled fights
As far as The pit is concerned I’m a bit uncertain about it. I never really liked that map, but the reason for this could also be that I never favored Halo 3 as a whole (Halo 2 and Reach were my favorites trough all the years, just my opinion don’t want to restart the “Best Halo” debate)
I’m sure the pit is a fan favorite and alot of people could be hoping for it to make it’s return, but for me it doesn’t need to I mean we had pitfall in the last game and although I think SA would actually work on this map I don’t see that one happening
Battle/Beaver creek remake: Always played bad on this map, but loved it anyways, so another remake would be welcome…
But as much as I hate being the guy with the bad news I don’t see it happening either, because there already was a remake in CEA
Now a second suggestion of mine: Deathisland
Seriously the mother of BTB, one of the most played CE maps (Halo CE for Pc) and my all time favorite besides spire… It’s awesome, would allow SA’s, could support larger battles and helped btb getting the fan favorite gametype it is today
But 343 doesn’t seem to like this map at all as I still can’t find it in the MCC (all maps should be included, am I right?) and it was never even thought about as a remake for HCEA if I remember right (heard an interview a few years ago)
I’m mostly a Big Team player so my choices are pretty biased, but my top picks are Sandtrap and Death Island. Sandtrap as a map is fairly average, but I’ve always loved the Elephant and definitely think it needs a comeback in Guardians. Death Island would fit the large-scale battle gamemode they seem to be going for, and seeing it graphically enhanced on XB1 would be beautiful.
I would like to see a couple of remakes that haven’t been done, backwash from Halo 2 and countdown from Halo reach. Also colosus from Halo 2 would be cool.
High Ground - I have some of my most memorable Halo memories while playing this map. Please 343, please.
Valhalla - This is one of my all-time favorite Halo maps. I know it’s already been remade, but I’m probably not the only person who would love to see this map again!
Isolation/Snowbound - I loved both of these Halo 3 maps
Turf - It’s small, but I loved this map. I could see it working in Halo 5
