I cant believe that 10% vote for B.C. its a tough map to control but i'd hapilly play on B.C. than Elongation anyday.
It's a double team nightmare it at times the playlist feels loaded to it.............
Worse map:- Elongation, turf,

this is the worst maps and why to me anyway how i feel. since i play alot of mlg games i would say...... BEAVER effing CREEK!!!! i have played that map over a thousand plus times and still dont like it. i just cant seem to ever get anything going on it no matter if i put 40+ kills the game before i am damned to go negative on BC. sanctuary is horrible because of the awful spawn system that makes me want to quit halo but for some reason shooting people in the face never gets boring. i mean how can you put a whole team next to another team on a big effing map. that makes no sense and it happens all the time. terminal is bad for alot of reasons that everyone knows and i dont feel like explaining. relics is bad for many reasons. mainly known for just camping. no problem with elongation though.

I play snipers (close-quarter combat sucks with latency...coutesy of my local internet service)

The worst (small, boring, not meant for snipers) map is Sanctuary. Beaver Creek and Ivory Tower run a close second if they aren't tied for worst.

The biggest and best are Headlong (favorite), Relic and Zanzibar. So many places to "play". (Even if you don't bounce, etc.)

Whatever the map ranking is, I wouldn't mind seeing some new ones! Preferably Big and unique/irregular...

I agree. Bungie should make a unique map that resembles the fy_ maps in CS, such as fy_repub.

Lockout, Ivory Tower, Midship Plasma start, and... Elongation

Reasons

1. Lockout: Too overplayed, still a good map, but I personally dislike it.
2. Ivory Tower: If a team controlls the weapons, they win. Would like to see Battle start in it, even though it could possibly never happen.
3. Midship Plasma start: Way too unbalanced. You can be left helpless at times especially when even just one teamate (I hope I spelled teamate right, lol) leaves.
4. Elongation: I actually dont this map, I just dislike the PP/Br Combo and the SMG start. Personally I think that No Duals could fix this up quite nicely.

All other maps are just fine IMO. There are some things that I dislike, but I just don't remember off the top of my head.

I agree. People are too prone to just camp and hide when they have a lead since it's such a huge map and there are hundreds of nooks to hide in.

Out of all the maps, I think Relic is the most useless. Let's think about that for a minute.

Team Skirmish
- Assault: Pretty damn near impossible to run up the bomb... the only plausible way is to get the warthog up there, but it's very difficult to just drive straight to the site... after all, the other team will have rockets/ghost/sniper by the time you get there.
- CTF: Same thing - it's too hard to get up there without vehicles. They should have left the two ramps up in CTF/Assault.
- Generally, this map is too procedural for Skirmish gametypes... there isn't much variation... on defense you get the ghost and rush the beam, one guy rushes rockets, the others get duals/BRs/combos and just camp in the alley leading up to the pinnacle. On offense, you have no CHOICE but to rush with the warthog before the other team gets the guns.

Team Slayer:
- It's not bad for the most part, but it sure is a -blam!- to play when the other team bridges host. This map a host's shooting gallery = eg. instant headshots when sniping from cross map, BR effectiveness from cross map, etc.
- Sure is a -blam!- when the other team gets a lead and starts camping... there are waaaay too many nooks and crannies to hide in.

Team Snipers:
- Same deal - everyone tends to hide when they have a lead, and the host has a significantly greater advantage than on other maps.

Elongation is the worst by far. There is very little skill involved, it is all camping, combos, duals, and shotties


Which is your opinion

Everybody has there own opionion about what maps they love and hate(except baskwash...nobody likes backwash) but different maps suit different game types... but hey the "GRAB THE ODDBALL AND BOUNCE" in turf is pretty much BS unless ur the one who's bouncing

None of the above in my opinion, I actually like them all... They might get old after you get them 10 times in a row like I sometimes do, however, I still like them all I think.

Elongation, Ivory Tower, Turf, Beaver Creek. Why?

Elongation just has a horrible layout, weapons seem put on there at random, and it doesn't feel like a proper map. Games are unbalanced and there's no way to put teamwork or skill into that map.

Ivory Tower has every power weapon located on that map. A team of noobs that happen to spawn closer to rockets, sword, or sniper happen to have a very high chance of winning the game vs. better players.

Turf is unbalanced yet again, focused on duals that require less skill than other weps. Its easy to get outside of the map with sniper, there's way too many ways to get on higher ground that half the other people don't know about, and there just seems to be too many 'sections' of the map.

Beaver Creek is like Ivory Tower, whoever spawns at sniper wins, snipe rockets, your team gets them, and its down to camping at weapon spawns and luck.

If I wasn't on an Xbox 360 I would play Backwash a lot, it is a very fun map that adds a cool twist with the fog.

You see thats the many problems which lies in with people. They always are like o u used rockets because whoever uses them are noobs. BTB skrimish for exaple is one of the better playlists because you dont get people complaining about using noobish weapons and such but the moment you step out of this you get these huge peoblems with maps because people constantly complain about a flaw thats in there view in maps. Weapons in game types are there to stay and play those because there not going anywhere. Not everything on all maps are set up for team rifles which is basically the most balanced you can get
