Why btb anniversary is better then reach btb

We have nice colorfull maps in anniversary instat of the boring grey forge world maps!

Seriously i used to love btb its my favorite game mode but the forge world maps is all there is left and its just to boring.

Remember halo 3 btb wow amazing cus no stupid forge maps.

I hope they don’t change the anniversary playlist and mix them up with normal btb although i would like some original maps and anniversary maps to be placed in a playlist for btb.
But only if they are the original maps and no forge world.

man i have such fond memories of H3 BTB

the sniper mission on sandtrap
the flag missions on avalanche
the all round epicness of valhalla

anyone remember territories? that basically never comes up or gets chosen anymore

yeah it was amazing and halo reach has got a few maps that could easily make it into big team but naaah they prefer to put in boring grey forge world maps.

It’s way better than Reach’s maps, in anniversary BTB i made my first perfection and i could never do in forge maps in reach

It would be awesome to play on Breakneck, Ridgeline and High Noon using the normal playstyle of Halo: Reach.

If only it wasn’t for the abomination called lolTUReach and Utilitytards then I would be absolutely happy with it all. Ridgeline and Breakneck are awesome maps. People just really need to download all the map packs or 343 Industries should have made all the maps come on disk rather then making the Anniversary Maps exclusive. So do like what Bungie had done with ODST’s Multiplayer.

If that would defeat the object of playing campaign then perhaps a download code for the Noble, Defiant and Anniversary Maps have helped if they were in box.

Another person bashing the boring gray? Have you not been playing Halo that long? Have you missed the forerunner architecture and themes in EVERY HALO GAME? Halo is basically three colors: Grey, Purple, Green.

I have played halo since halo 1 came out first day.
Since then i have bought and played all the games that ever came out and i have 6 novels and other stuff.

Your really talking to the wrong guy if you thought it be funny to say oow you havent played halo that long.

I was making a point that all you play is forge world maps and never or hardly any basic maps!

Look at the btb in halo 3 and halo reach.
Halo 3: fun maps and load of different themes
Halo reach: Forge map after forge map while there are plenty of maps that could be in btb but you never see them!

Theirs a difference between the beautiful forerunner architecture mixed with the wonderful variety of environments in halo 1-3 and the boring non forerunner forge creations in green environments with nothing else to them.

FYI, Breakneck and Ridgeline are already a part of the BTB playlist.

Whether or not they actually show up is a different matter…

i wish that map breakpoint could be in btb

I miss the times that Halo 3’s BTB were crazy…anyone remember Big team heavies? :stuck_out_tongue:

Anniversary BTB is way better than regular Reach BTB. The maps are way better.

> Anniversary BTB is way better than regular Reach BTB. The maps are way better.

Agreed.

I got to agree with the detail…i love the mix variety with he maps. I think they should keep the anniversary playlist. They always seem to bring back the classy feeling of halo!

Played Anniversary BTB last morning, it was really good. Timberlands was awesome even though we lost (it was really close game, 90 to 100 IIRC) and the fun part is all the players on both sides were not a stacked team. It’s not often you get to experience BTB like that without getting spawn trapped by full team (which is legit btw).

Um… I don’t really know. But I do want to ask if all the maps are playable on BTB. Like they were in previous halos? and… should i get the defiant maps and whatever the other one is or does no one play em, and i dont see an option to play online with them on the matchmaking selection.

I honestly have to agree that BTB has become infinitely more enjoyable with Anniversary in the mix. Also, I would have to agree that the number one reason is the maps. Honestly Reach shipped with the weakest suite of BTB maps in the series. Only through some fantastic DLC (starting with Noble) did we finally start seeing well-playing, large maps. Headlong and Timberland are just fantastic. fake edit Breakneck and Ridgeline /fake edit Anniversary big team battle is definitely a playlist I’ve been having a blast stomping around in.

I think Reach BTB should be Hemorrhage, Utopie, Breakpoint, Spire, Boneyard, Highlands but maybe not Breackneck, High Noon and Ridgeline as we already have Anniversary BTB. These maps should be the only ones in BTB as we know they work well.

For those who don’t know Utopie, its an improved Paradiso.
