I'm surprised that nobody mentioned CMT. Even though I'm not a big fan of those maps, they're still pretty cool.

My favorites are Lost Cove by SomeRhino, Snowtorn Cove by Arteen and Schwinnz and Sniper Canyon Redux by SteelixB.

There are bugs in Yoyorast. They're not blatantly obvious as in some other maps but they are there. Probably the most aggravating are the occasion spots on the floor that aren't solid, causing you to fall through them. Or the lag spikes that cause you to spawn in midair so you fall to your death without even touching the keyboard.

The bugs are there, just few and far between. It's a nice novelty map, quite well made, like you said the author didn't just -blam!- it out. But it's still not worth of being called the best CE map. The CMT maps do.

Show me these "fall spots." Also, lag is lag. You don't lag on a map because of you're on a custom map; you lag because the net code is crap to begin with.

Also, if you honestly don't think the man planned every single detail to the last bit, including BALANCED spawns, then you obviously have only downloaded the map and never followed his progress, so let me bring you up to speed.

And I don't know what your definition of "great HCE maps" are, but, to me, they are original concepts with balanced game play. You want to see maps like that? Go take a look at Firedragon04's and Arteen's work.

Yes, I am quite well aware that "lag is lag". However on a map like Yoyorast the small walkways and ledges just compound the problem. You seem to be reading a bit too much into what I'm trying to say. I do not like Yoyorast, in fact I hate it with every ounce of my being. I don't care how long or how much work the author put into the map. I still won't like it. I'm not saying it's a bad map from a technical point of veiw, I just don't think it's worthy of being called one of the best.

That's all you had to say then. If it's your opinion then it's respected.

Halo 2 PC is dumb
That's nice, but this thread is about the Halo: Custom Edition.

No image tags? Bleh!

Coldsnap got so boring, when my team mates spawned, I chucked a c4 on thier head, or I started flying with the sniper rifle.
Go to coldsnap, and jump and fire the sniper rifle on it, weeee!

I didn't like CMT's Coagulation like just about everyone else I know who played CE did, but the rest of their maps were pretty sweet.. I preferred the H2CE rendition of Blood Gulch. All the H2CE maps rocked, I just wish they would've finished Midship, I really wanted to play it on PC before Halo 2 Vista hit the market. Ah well. I forget who made them, but the trio of Anxiety/Corruption/Immure were pretty nice. I really can't decide on one definite best map of CE.

Do what I did, take a tally poll for the best maps, then, put the top eight in your poll. According to my results it went Yoyorast, Coldsnap, Portent, CMT_snow grove and then the thread died.

One of the few things I actually enjoyed about Coldsnap was sniping people out of aircraft. I recommend you guys try it.

Now, in the quantum moment before the closure, when all become one. One moment left. One point of space and time. I know who you are. You are destiny.

Back when I first tried Coldsnap, I actually thought the concept of playing in a snow covered map of huge proportions to be worthy of being called 'fun'. I gave it up the first time I played it. I mean, I had first foudn out it was big, BIG, but hell, it's larger than the Two Betrayals campaign level map, by twice as much. It eventually gets boring to die all the time from some dude sniping from God knows where 5 kilometers away just to try to even perhaps get on a Jet or the Mythos, to get sniped again. Coldsnap has got to be the lamest and most ridiculous map ever. But then again, I'm steering away from your comment. Yes, sniping Jets is quite fun, taking away all of what I have of course...

the next couple maps that i would have put on there would be cityscape adrenaline, the great war, grunt attack 2, streets of earth city, chaos zanzibar, rainbow road,and kokiri forest
Those are more than a "couple". Haha, don't take me too seriously, I'm just being a smart ass. :)

Cold snap, zanzibar, coagulation are pretty cool. We need more good maps without the moded weps/vehicles. Just good maps.

Training Day is small, but fun. No mods, just a cool small map.

No. You spawn next to someone, and melee them. That's it.

this may be a little off subject but wouldnt a plain square room with nothing in it that is very small be a good map for slayer?


That's the dumbest thing I've ever heard on this forum full of dumbasses...
