Why are the Halo 3 launch maps so fucking shit?

>Why are the Halo 3 launch maps so fucking shit? Max Hoberman's team left bungie after Halo 2 was released.
They made most of the Halo Reach DLC as well as almost all the Halo 4 and Halo 2 Anniversary maps.
They didn't make any Halo 5 maps and what a surprise! Halo 5 has abysmal maps.
Thomas Kelly
Because Bungie got lucky with Halo, and actually had no idea what made it good in the first place.
Julian Carter
Construct is pretty fucking bad.
It's a map with 3 levels of play and one of them has 99% of the action.
Carter Sanders
>Construct >Good Yeah, no.
Connor Gonzalez
That doesn't make a map bad, though. The minefield on Sandtrap doesn't see much action outside of custom games. I guess the map is godawful because of it.
Jaxson Perry
Nice mental gymnastics. The minefield is essentially a barrier. Normal play doesn't lend itself to using it. Meanwhile Constructs boreal play is confined to less than a third of the actual map. It's just bad design.
Juan Murphy
It's not THAT bad, but it's definitely poorly designed and tested.

>Normal play doesn't lend itself to using it. Except for when it does, which is why the minefield operates at a speed which is slightly slower than a Warthog. >Meanwhile Constructs boreal play is confined to less than a third of the actual map. It's just bad design. The action progressing up to the top floor and staying there doesn't make it bad. Just saying it's bad is not an argument.

Dev forge maps were a mistake.
Matthew Ward
I never liked construct myself for this reason. Halo 3 only had a few maps at launch I would say we're worth playing, and even then they were pretty games mode specific like 1 flag on high ground.
Luckily the DLC upped the ante
Lincoln Martinez

Noah Rogers
You have no power here, Kek.
Lucas Price
Forge maps were a mistake. You can probably count the number of decent forge maps from 5 in matchmaking on one hand, counting Breakout maps as well. So far I have three, and they're all exclusive to Breakout. And I don't even know the name of one of them.
Benjamin Moore
A-Myyyyyy
Chase Cruz
To each their own. I enjoy most of the forge maps in matchmaking. In fact, I enjoy most of them more than 343's arena maps.
Zachary Reed
Most of the BTB maps are ok, i just wish they updated them with the new textures and stuff.
Jaxon Sanders
>In fact, I enjoy most of them more than 343's arena maps. That's sometimes true for me, but that's not saying much.
Jackson Adams
>in matchmaking The good maps almost never, ever get into matchmaking. The entire system is full of circlejerking and the Cartographers getting their buddies' maps in.
Adam Jackson
I like basin
Anthony Clark
I absolutely hated that map at launch but the more i play on it, the more i like it. Calling it a "Valhalla" remake was a mistake though.
Nathaniel Hill
You'll be gone soon asshole
Jaxson Carter
Basin is better than the Valhalla remake
Jason Anderson
Basin is better than Valhalla, but two base open-air maps don't work well in 5.
Christian Sullivan
I like how if you left the game running, the flood stuff would take over the map.
Its still a mediocre map but the rest of Halo 3 maps carry this and snowbound so whatever.
Evan Reed
I'd like more gimmick maps like that
Gavin King
Gween team.
Lucas Torres
It really is a shame about none of the 343 maps serve a purpose or really have anything outside of them. The most one of those maps does is Riptide, with a whale outside. There's no giant waterfall with sentinels in the distance giving you the idea that you're below the campaign level. There's no glass floor or outside deck showing that you're in a super-high tower, or super-high tower 2 Citadel boogaloo. Nothing like that.
Angel Rivera
They on't spend enough time with the maps to even care
Nicholas Nelson
you guys ever play SPV3? im about to try it out.
Juan Peterson
I'm biased as shit about it, but it think it's pretty good. A lot of gameplay variety, pretty much all of the added features are really fun to play with, and decent enough graphics.
Alexander Rivera
im glad i still have my cd key on hand, this brings me back
im excited, i think im gonna play through the campaign without the mod first though for old times sake and to see whats changed.
Henry Scott
Which is even funnier when you consider that many of the maps have been done for months before the game even released, and they've been waiting to release them but add nothing to them.
Grayson Peterson
They could've done more polishing instead of jerking off in a money pile
Nicholas Gomez

Is 343 going to take this anywhere? Are we going to get a favela level in Halo 6? Are we going to get a short story about some sangheili trying to start a new life on earth like District 9 in Halo Fractures coming out this September?

Sometimes the hand of God interferes when he sees I'm just being way too shit at video games. This is one of those times.
Andrew Long
You don't like how a map plays so its bad? Only retards camp with the sword and only retards get killed by someone who camps with the sword. Theres an overshield underneath, maulers in the same building AND windows to throw grenades through.
No one runs the rockets straight away to avoid the nades, so again if you get killed there you're a fucking retard. There's also the camo, which can help you grab the rockets if they're still nailed down. Snipers aren't a massive issue unless you have someone who is pretty good with one on the opposite team and even then theres is enough room to manoeuvre since the map isn't one open wide space.
I'm not a fan of the >youre just bad meme BUT you actually sound pretty bad. Also its funny you have to spend time in paint to point out pretty moot points on a map that is about as widely regarded as a fan favourite

Nathaniel Parker
Have you actually played the game at high level, though? There's literally no reason to go anywhere if you already have the lead.
Jacob Moore
I've never been a fan of camera helmets desu
Jackson Jones
So the map is bad because it isn't as good for very high level play? I bet you are absolutely in love with 5s multiplayer.
Dominic Morgan
Gungnir in Reach got a pass because it was the only one with that. Then we got to 4 where so many of them didn't even have cameras.
Angel Martinez
Exactly.
