Dont remember where i saw this, (and im not trying to take anyones idea whoever thought of this, so it isnt mine.) But i remember seeing in some forum that they should bring blood gulch back but with 4 bases instead of 2, considering the multiple teams, which would make it an awesome map to play and multiple bases, just think of it tho, your on the red team and u have the blue team's flag, and your getting away in the warthog then all of a sudden, the gold team blows your warthog to pieces and takes the blue teams flag to return to their base while everyone is fighting for one flag the sneaky green team gets by into your base and takes your flag causing a even more problems.----im Drooling

That'd be pretty cool, there'll probably be something similar in Halo 2, i'd imagine it'd be a level that features flying craft also.

What makes multiple team capture the flag so difficult is figuring out who has your flag... I just hope they don't make it that you can carry multiple flags...

4 way Capture the flag was fun as heck in the origional Team Fortress... 4f4 was the most popular of the series...

hmmm..........
If Blood Gultch had four bases, it wouldnt really be Blood Gultch. I don't see where they would put the other two bases either.

They could basically do Blood Gulch the way they did 4f4 for Team Fortress, add on a criss crossing part right threw the middle for the other two teams...

If Blood Gulch is in Halo 2, I hope they make it more complex and have actually nice looking bases..

Heck, even better, make the entire area box shaped, with the bases at each of it's corners.
It would also provide it with even more wide open spaces and plenty of room for new tunnels and obstacles... sniper heaven.

Not if they don't make the terrain all wide open as it was in Halo 2... Like tunnels that even go underground... Rocks and other obsticals do hide behind...

how did it work? did you have to steal a specific team's flag, or could you just grab any of them? i was thinking if it wasn't like that, then there could be one flag that all the teams go after and try to get back to their base with.

Hell yes.
Ooh! Okay... heres an idea...

Area kind of like blood gulch... except box shaped, and about twice as big.
The bases are in the corners of this huge open, deserted map surrounded by miscellaneos tunnels and cliffs.
The two horizontal bases are human style, and the two verticle are covie style, and each has two turrets.
Whats more, they have an opening out front that leads to a miniature garage, with room for about 2 tanks.
They have an actual armory style room (think the armory on the POA in 'The Maw') with just about any weapon you want.
Each base also has either human vehicles or covie vehicles, respectively.

Wrap your head around that.
Oh the possibilities...

It was basically capture anyone you wanted. If they did it with only one flag, they might as well turn the game into a "Murderball" level that was used in TFC... You see, in that... There was a ball in the middle of four bases, the object to the game was to hold onto the ball as long as possible. Above where the ball spawns was a thing that showed all four teams where the ball was located...

Blood Gulch 2 could even have enough space to use Pelicans,Seraphs,Covy Dropships,Banshees and Longswords Fighter/Bomber! Anyway,if all four teams(Red,Blue,Green and Yellow) have hunted for one flag,it could be in the middle of the map where the flag have all four colors on it or it could be grey.Just a thought

If they are going to allow all of those flying aircrafts then they should definitely make a map set in space. Have like a space station for ground fighting and lots of space area for plane type fighting.
