Orion was taken out of matchmaking shortly after launch due to spawning issues I believe. My question is when will it be added back? The map was available during the beta and seems like it should have been ready by the initial release date. It is different than most of the other maps in the game since it is not a remix of another map. I miss the variety it added to the game. I know you can play on it in custom games, but I don’t have many friends I play with in Halo 5 because of the lack of local multiplayer. Does anyone else miss playing on this map in matchmaking?
I’ve never seen that map before
I completely forgot about Orion… I wasn’t a big fan of it but it is odd that’s it’s been gone for something like 8 months and no word on when it will be back.

Was that the only Multiplayer map that had the Damage Boost?

Yes.
I don’t think DB has any place in Arena and I’m glad no other map has that.
Orion was a very bad map to me.
Yeah it would be cool to see this map again. Kinda miss it
Oh yes, I miss just sitting on the Dmr spawn and pretty much seeing everywhere (kind of why spawning was an issue). Gg to whomever even tried getting the sniper.
There was a post not to long ago where Bravo interviewed a forger with the GT “Black Picture” who totally redid the map to fix all its issues. Sounds like it has a chance of coming into matchmaking at some point 
You should totally check the map out, dude did a pretty good job with it.

I hope so it was content on the base game that we paid for so the fact that it was broken and still not fixed really does annoy me.
I would hope it comes back at some point.

It was just a forge map, it didn’t really cost 343 money to make the map in the first place, using forge of course.

I though it was a really good map.

That’s like saying there is no place for over shields, invisibility, or speed boost. Learn to have a little fun.
Yes, we will. It was remade by someone and the only thing remaining now is when.

I’m glad the community is so willing to produce/fix the game’s content but it really makes the devs look lazy.
Orion wasn’t a remix?
I guess not technically but it’s basically Pegasus with the height levels in the map altered.
An overhead breakdown of Pegasus and orion looks identical.
But I agree with you. I liked orion. I’m blown away they were never able to fix it. It is unbalanced but no more than Pegasus or riptide.

They play pretty differently. Pegasus is about controlling the top of the map, similar to Ivory Tower/Reflection, though it has a much greater emphasis on control for the top than these maps. Orion was like an open, base-to-base combat sort of map, similar to Lockout.

Why?
