I don't understand why they still want to keep this map around. It's laggy. Almost half the players quit as soon as the game starts. Why still keep it around?

Many people like the map. Its only in one playlist. lag is not an issue to get rid of a Map.


The only thing wrong with the map is Flag Wars

I don't know why, but I really like Waterworks for BTB. It's fun to play Assault matches on it, Team Slayer matches there are ok, and I LOVE Flag Wars. It's just a fun map to do those type of base matches. The only thing I hate on that map are the Wraiths. They are too much of a pain.

Because Waterworks is such a refreshing and innovative level! I mean, you can shoot stalagmites off the ceiling and they can crush people! What a useful and original design element for a map! As a sixth generation console game, its safe to say that Halo 2 came up with this design element first.

Its a good map, but the problem is the playlist. Unranked BTB is something that every good player runs from, and every bad player runs to. So when kids get a game that requires some form of intelligent thought, like assault on waterworks they quit, because they wanted something so mind blowingly skillful as say Team rockets. Whats even worse is its hard to find games in that UNRANKED playlist, harder than it was when it was ranked.

Forget Halo 3. In six years, Halo 4 will be all the rage! I say wait for that game.

Oh, and yeah, let's all forget Halo 2 because there aren't people out there who AREN'T going to get Halo 3 the second it hits shelves, or people who DON'T have Xbox 360s...

People like you bother me.

You can run. But you will only die tired.

I've never gotten it in matchmaking

I hate it when it like shakes when your gonna snipe someone.....



That's why you have to time your snipes. Some kids run away from anything that's a challenge. You're probably one of those kids who quits everytime a skirmish game is thrown into BTB, aren't you?

Why not include every map on every playlist after the release of Halo 3?

LOL!!!
I remember the first time I felt that on that map. I knew nothing about it and was like "What the HELL was that????" Scared the heck outta me. I thought there was something wrong with my XBox cuz the screen was shaking LOL!!!! Kinda like that damned Gauss Hog when it goes by you and someone's in the turret....makes your eyes go funny!
But back on topic, I like Waterworks. It's fun for Flag Wars, and any Big Team Battle game pretty much.
