When I’m playing online all I see is stupid Forge maps, I’m getting sick of it, even in the premium playlist which makes no sense. Anyway hopefully when CEA comes out I will actually get to played the maps I paid for, not be forced to play crappy swat’s versions in Forgeworld…, don’t want to be shoved into the premium playlist with lack of gametypes.
I would quit all of these Forge maps but the game forces people to play or they get temp ban from matchmaking. I know why they are there but to force gamers to play terrible forged maps is frustrating.
I wouldn’t mind if it meant turning all the Firefight maps into proper multiplayer maps.
Having two or three of the best community creations wouldn’t be too bad. Many of Reach’s maps are imbalanced in favor of Red Team, and we need some quality symmetrical maps in the mix too.
I would happily fork out money for proper maps but I don’t want to get involved with custom maps online… Custom maps are ‘fun’ but they should stay in custom games. Games like griffball was fun but nobody online plays the game right anymore, have everyone camping for kills which has ruined that playlist, not even attempting to win.
Anyway if they keep spamming forge maps then whats the point in buying dlc that barely pops up?
> you wouldnt want the lockout remake to be in rotation? original lockout was grey anyway? Same with the foundation remake and chillout remake.

> I agree to the BS ones in TS but the really good community remakes should be in.
I would happily accept them as remakes but not as forge maps. The main problem with Forgeworld is that it takes all the feelings away from each map, attempted forge maps like the reach forge maps for lockout look bad.

you talking about the lockout one from the classic playlist? even its location on the map, under a cliff resembles that of the original only sunny and not snowy
Strange because I barely ever see Swordbase due to the stupid Forge maps… There are like 14 maps to choose from but instead I get spammed with Forgeworld.

Oh, crappy maps like Asylum we’r its poorly designed for spawn camping!
I never sad anything bad about the default maps… Also the community maps aren’t that good, people just mis-use them all the time, they end up looking like a mess. Like I have said in the past if I want custom maps then I’ll play custom games but they shouldn’t force others to put up with it.
Actually, I think there should be MORE community maps. There ARE good community maps in rotation…Select, Renegade & Treasury (though there’s one or two places that need softkill zones in Treasury down near Rockets) are my favs (I’m ok with Affinity as well)…but there could be more to balance out the bad maps. Also, there seem to be a lot of the community maps that haven’t even changed their preview cam locations…

You paid for the brand and the physical game itself, anything enclosed within the game itself is whatever the Dev/Creator wants to be there.

Cliffhanger has to be my absolute favorite. I got an awesome Perfection on that map.
There is Select, Treasury, and Enclosed. I would like those maps to stay in. I would also like 343 to remove every other Forge World variant, including the ones created by Bungie. Then a new set of community maps should replace them.
Out of all of the Forge World maps, I can say that Wayont is the only one that plays good. Other than that, I’d also like to be playing on the maps that I payed for. Yeah, you’ll lose some casual players if you make some playlists DLC required, but would you rather lose these guys or your loyal fans who love the game enough to actually buy the map packs? Since I’ve bought both of the map packs, I’ve played a DLC map ONCE in BTB, out of pure luck. This has to change.

I actually started digging Mt. Lam Lam. It has that “Beach of Normandy” feel once you make towards the center.
So you’re saying you don’t trust community members to make great maps?
To be honest, I find that Synapse, Select, Wayont, and Eden Minor are better than all the default maps in Reach, bar maybe Arena Zealot or Powerhouse.
When the community makes a map that is better than default maps in the game, it should get in. Period. I don’t get why some people are so quick to hate maps that were expertly forged, especially considering most of the ones in MM are REALLY GOOD.
To be honest. I’d rather them fully remove The Cage, Cliffhanger, Uncaged, Pinnacle, Asylum, and Hemmorhage.
