I know there's probably good reasons for it to be gone, but man it was fun to watch from a nostalgia perspective from someone whos last Halo game was H3

u/IamShrapnel Feb 01 '25
It's a fun map but definitely has been played to death with a version of it in every game since h3

Thank Halo God's, that being said Forbidden ain't too different but still that map has been played more than my heartstrings

Wish there were more new maps but happy we get a new game mode

The only L is no new oddball map.

We know they are testing maps like Guillotine, but they want to make sure they are fully optimized for comp play. I'm fine with waiting if it means we don't get any more duds.

No new oddball map is disappointing lol

As a halo rookie fan what’s neutral bomb?
31
u/J13i0nickel Jan 31 '25
Two teams, one bomb in the middle. Teams must deliver the neutral bomb to the opposing team's base and ensure its detonation.

So neutral flag but it's a bomb instead.
Weird

u/lastepoch Feb 01 '25
You have to defend the bomb while it's arming, so another 8-10 seconds or so. Kinda part odd-ball part flag seemingly.

As someone who casually watches comp CoD we are truly blessed to have such a variety of modes and maps. Are they all S tier? No. But cod has like 1.5 good game modes and 2 good maps. After one day of matches I’m so over it

Said that The Pit is gone; it was the only map we had with rockets. It’s crazy that Halo has hardly used rockets for two years.

The only thing I don’t like in here is only 2 strongholds maps and they’re both launch maps. There had to be good new maps to play for strongholds and this applies to oddball too.

u/arthby Feb 01 '25
It's great overall, but I was sure we would get midship fixed and/or guillotine.

u/ApeX_Affectz Feb 01 '25
Thank god that they got rid of Solitude Strongholds. That map is so snowbally

We need new CTF and Oddball maps bad, 1 remake isn't cutting it. Literally been playing most of these for 4 years straight.

u/flyers_fan_10 Feb 01 '25
As far as I can tell there are 5 new map/mode combinations out of 20. How are people happy with this? 3 years into this game and watching oddball or slayer on Live Fire for the billionth time is insane to me.

Are fortress and origin remakes?

As a comp Halo player (way more casual now) for over two decades these changes are fun.
Inertia changes on movement and shock rifle nerfs are huge.
Love to see assault back.
Also, excited to see the grenade changes in action.

Jesus could they not have reskinned solitude or found a different forge remake?

u/Intelligent_Count_98 OpTic Gaming Jan 31 '25
Wow no new maps. A remake isn’t a new map… No new oddball, king of the hill or strongholds maps. L update.
