Back in April as we all know Tombstone and Desolation came out. And wether or not people liked them or anyone for that matter, I still think they should make at least one more group of maps. Maybe some brand new maps that are freshly designed or whats left of the Halo maps. The one Halo map that i really wish they would put out there is "Boarding Action" from Halo Combat Evolved. C'mon guys the map freakin owns, bring it back! You could put it as a download on Halo2 and Halo3. If there were to be any new additions to the map I believe they could put a couple of turrets and or a Banshee spawn or two. What are your thoughts on this guys?

I have no idea why, but I can't remember that map at all. I'm all for new maps though. Just not another like tombstone that sucks for snipers. It's one of my fave maps for Team SlayerBR, but it's horrible for snipers.

Personally I liked the idea Boarding action had.... but it does need to be redisigned. Banshees would be lovely along with some bad-A turrets with some heavy firepower. Do some cool stuff with the sniper turf, give the other floors more cover, and make each level a little moer close combat friendly. It would be perfect.... well almost. XP

its an amazing map!

here is what i would change.

add 2 banshees 1 for each side
make the teleporters random so you could end up anywhere!
have a point on the top floor where you could just about make a jump to the bottom of the other side
have a sloped roof so people couldnt super jump on top

i always like this map even 1 v 1

I used to play Boarding Action a lot in Halo 1, but here's the thing - it's not a good map. It didn't flow very well, and gameplay was fun only if you drastically altererd the game rules. Snipers only matches, and occasionally rockets would be fun, but with default weapons, the map simply wasn't enjoyable. I'm not surprised they didn't bring it back, and don't feel they really need to spend the time and effort to redesign it. It would be more practical just to start over with a newer, better design.

yea i agree, add 2 or 4 banshees, 4 to 6 turrets, and some more cover, the original was really open. i loved playing on this map with rockets and infinite grenades
