I don't know about everyone else but it seems as if the two new maps have been popping up in matchmaking a lot more than any other map.. I'm getting really sick of those two maps and I was just wondering if anyone else felt the same way... Might be time for a MM update..

On a side note, GIMME BACK COAG IN SKIRMISH.. lol... I like that map...

I hate desolation. I played that four times in a row, three times it was in the same playlist! That map is HORRIBLE with SMG starts and even worse for Neutral Bomb.

it has WAY too many power wepons, 2 shotguns and brute shots, a sword, a rocket(worst thing possible in such a medium sized map), sentenel beams are a plus, wish they had them on other maps, but thats the only thing it has going for it

the map is realy not good for anything, the halo 1 was REALY good, but in this one it just dosnt fit

Moo

Desolation is garbage, especially if the SMG is your spawning weapon. The map is decent if you at least have a BR.

I seem to get more games on Desolation and Tombstone than any other map too, especially Desolation in team games.

Is it only me, but I actually kind of like tombstone. It's not symmetrical and is set up for a mixture of long range and close range battles. It also has tons of unique hiding spots and weapon spawning points. And there is finally a map where there's some risk to going and getting Rockets, the Sword, or the Sniper Rifle. The only complaint I would have with the map is that it's just too -Blam!- big. Keep the bases the same size, but make the lower center area half as big.

One of my Halo 3 montages.

the maps are alright. i like tombstone, but desolation does come up way too much. i think they need to put more zanzibar and burial mounds and less of warlock, elongation, and desolation. and add foundation back in.

The two new maps are garbage. Yes Tombstone is better then Desolation by a long shot, but still both blow major Grunt balls.

QFT, the host advantage on Tombstone with Br starts is just amazingly stupid....

  • 08.15.2007 1:32 PM PDT

Srry to break this to ya man...but the forum specifically says "Everything you like and love about Halo 2" not what you hate about it...so OFF TOPIC....j/k....


But anyways I'm tired of playing tombstone...I can deal with Desolation

  • 08.15.2007 1:34 PM PDT

They who can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety, deserve neither liberty nor safety.

They are fun to play for about half a game, then it becomes way too stupid. Desolation is like Warlock's retarded cousin, and Tombstone is just landing potshots the entire damn game. The maps sounded cool in concept, but really have very little replayability.

i have to agree way to much Tombstone for team snipers, almost every game i play, its on that map... havent played much desolation (knock on wood), but i agree, BRING BACK THE OLD MAPS FOR GAMES! and what ever happend to multi-team? was it not a hit?...cause i thought it was fun... and BTB games, and while were at it CLAN MATCHES!! bah, but the only way to get good when you know all your gonna play for snipers is Tombstone, just practice on it...and now that ive started practicing on it....theres getting to be a little less of it, (played my first ever game of Snipers on Headlong last night, took over 100 games!!! >=[

No. I like the new maps. Desolation is a better version of warlock. Tombstone is another good sized level.

No image tags? Bleh!

I hate how most h2 players have never played h1.
Tombstone = Hang 'Em High
Desolation = Derelict

what are you talking about? that's what the maps are called now. plus, they're different than the halo: ce maps. i hate when players say h1 when it's halo: combat evolved

it is way to big, its perfect for snipers, but its played way to much, if i got it like 1 time out of every 10 games it might be a little bit better, but for everything else its really bad especially for slayer with smg spawn, you get the sniper, and your overshield, and games over pretty much

i absolutely hate it for skirmish type games, its way to damn big, for example its team ball and the other team gets it up to red base, its litteraly impossible for you to get up there without being seen, shot at, or just killed, flag is bad to, the only one that is kind of alright is plots, but plain and simple the map is way to big for the type of stuff were playing in there

If I have to play multi bomb at desolation I will explode.
