Can anyone confirm something for me? If you bring up your roster by pressing X, then press X again to take it away, is the sound created by removing the roster with X softer than the sound of of removing the roster by pressing B?

I know it doesn't seem important but my sanity would appreciate it.

Yeah I just tried this and its definitely a much quieter sound using X again

Blood Gulch/Coagulation/Hemorrhage is the most overrated multiplayer map in gaming history.

*Fourth Blood Gultch Remake will appear in Halo 6*

 

[RoyalLaFlame]

If Halo 5 ships and we have to pay for DLC maps in 2015 game will slowly die like the others.

Yeah, probably. The new trend should be Free DLC, keeps the game alive.

 

[rrc1594]

Blood Gultch is overrated!

You all can go to hell.

 

[matthieuC]

Aren't they supposed to be updating us today about what is happening?

I remember Monday being important for something

Yes. Also, there has been a rumor that they will announce a for of "compensation" for us today.

Standoff and Valshalsla were definitely steps in the right direction.

 

[Sephzilla]

Just got flashbacks of successfully running the Warthog over the entire top of the Relic base, hopping out and grabbing the flag, and then driving off and tumbling to victory. So rare it was to clear out the enemy team and time things just right to make that happen, but it felt so good when you did.

Funny enough this happened during my 2nd match on Relic in MCC. My teammate and I in the warthog were legit shook because we drove up there almost entirely unopposed. Granted, we executed the start of round Warthog run so I think we caught everyone with their pants down because we drove into their base just as the other team was running out to get weapons.

But Relic really was a great map. When things went right they went so right but when they went wrong things went comically wrong.

Containmemt.

 

[Sephzilla]

Sorry but saying Valhalla > Blood Gulch is where I draw the line. Valhalla is inferior in every way.

 

[Fracas]

Blood Gulch suuuuucks

Giant, partly flat map with next to no cover zzzzzzzzz

 

[Tawpgun]

I thought blood gulch works well in CE.

Shit sucks in every other game though. Gulch Wars or whatever that gametype in Halo 2 was called was way better on Containment

 

[TriStateTryHard]

But the vehicular needler is on Valhalla.

Complaining about Slayer on Lockout is kinda like complaining about Slayer on Pit. Why are you playing Slayer on Objective maps?

Because that's what gets the most votes.

But Relic really was a great map. When things went right they went so right but when they went wrong things went comically wrong.

...like the time my teammate was scoped in with the sniper rifle in a 49 - 49 tie game and accidentally strafed his way off the edge of the right side of the map, fell to his death, and lost the snipe for us. We then lost.

Much rage happened that day.

Midship is the most overrated map in Halo.

 

[Sephzilla]

Blood Gulch suuuuucks

After actually playing on it I think Bloodline is my favorite take on Blood Gulch. It feels like there's just enough cover to get around the map, but a good sniper will still have his way with you. It feels like a good trade off. I was happy my concerns about Bloodline didn't seem to surface.

Spoiler

Still needs more color though

Gasp. It's almost like people like that map. It may be bad for Slayer, but without ranks playing slayer is amateur hour.

At lower skill levels people run around the bottom levels and it's a fun map.

 

[DontBeThatGuy]

Midship is the most overrated map in Halo.

I don't like this.

Wrong.

We had as good lead and snipe control at snipe tower. My team mates repeatedly committed seduko against the enemy's sword br1 until we were losing.

 

[rrc1594]

Wrong.

The correct answer is Guardian.

Me and Kiki WolfKill disagree.

 

[Rockyrock]

Slayer anything gets the most votes.

yep.

and 343 still makes it show up 100% of the time in non-slayer specific playlists.

Wanna play some fun BTB flag or bomb?? LOL nope sorry just slayer with Vehicles.

Wrong.

The correct answer is Guardian.

cause it only plays every gametype flawlessly

 

[Sephzilla]

Me and Kiki WolfKill disagree.

That's nice.

It doesn't change the fact that Guardian isn't that good. It's Lockout without anything that was good about Lockout.

I like the game, but the spawns are atrocious. How does anyone justify that shit.

 

[User 73706]

fucking midship and lockout are the most overrated maps

Bigshow and unknown might give you some skill gap reason but the real answer is...

Campaign wise, yuuuuuup

I like MP though.

 

[rrc1594]

The most underappreciated map is Construct.

Your opinion is bad and you should feel bad.

CTF?

I love Guardian though. One of my all-time favorites.

 

[DontBeThatGuy]

The most underappreciated map is Construct.

I liked it in the MLG playlist, but wasn't exactly a fan of it anywhere else.

 

[Impala26]

Wrong.

The correct answer is Guardian.

Huh?

How can you overrate that which isn't rated that highly to begin with?

Midship is the most overrated map in Halo.

The most underappreciated map is Construct.

You trying to make enemies in here, breh? XD

 

[DJ Gunner]

The bad opinion train is running full steam here this morning I see

 

[jem0208]

That's nice.

It doesn't change the fact that Guardian isn't that good. It's Lockout without anything that was good about Lockout.

Guardian is far better than Lockout, for slayer at least.

 

[Fracas]

Last Resort is the best Halo map

Get at meeeee

 

[FyreWulff]

The most underappreciated map is Construct.

It's neat but you can tell it was one of the last disc maps made.

When they came back and redid it as Countdown, I liked that version much better for movement and actual use of all parts of the map.

 

[rrc1594]

Guardian is far better than Lockout, for slayer at least.

Guardian is everything Lockout wish it was

 

[User 73706]

I mean I get what it does right as a map but I mean goddamn Lockout is basically chiron without the walls / ceilings and teleporters replaced with catwalks

Boarding Action and Waterworks would work amazingly well in the modern (H2AMP-era) sandbox

 

[Impala26]

Last Resort is the best Halo map

Get at meeeee

Not gonna lie, playing H2A Stonetown I STILL reflexively try to find cover inside the ground floor of Camp Froman. It's becoming a problem honestly.

 

[Tawpgun]

Best map in the franchise

 

[rrc1594]

Timberland is by far the worst map I played in CE so far. There is power weapon under every christmas tree.

 

[Sephzilla]

Timberland is by far the worst map I played in CE so far. There is power weapon under every christmas tree.

Yeah. Timberland isn't that great when there are 4 snipers all shooting at one base

Not gonna lie, playing H2A Stonetown I STILL reflexively try to find cover inside the ground floor of Camp Froman. It's becoming a problem honestly.

I still expect there to be a walkway from camp froman back to base

 

[Rockyrock]

CTF?

I love Guardian though. One of my all-time favorites.

multi flag CTF is one the greatest gametypes of all-time. OF ALL-TIME!!

 

[Tawpgun]

Naded playign H2A

That fuckin ending holy shiiiiiiiiiiit #wesortaback

Favorite map in H3 next to Narrows

 

[Overdoziz]

No other map shows how much better the game plays without radar as much as Construct does. Radar vs. no radar is night and day on that map.

I usually shit on Construct pretty hard, probably my least favorite H3 "on disk" map, but you're totally right about this. Being a ninja when motion tracker is off is so amazing on Construct. That map plays great for SWAT.
