Wait... now we have to wait for Lockout...
Opps, I mean "Moonlight Sonata"
You do realize Guardian was Bungie's Halo 3 rendition of Lockout, right? It's got all of the features: the green room with the shotgun, the big lift with the two recessed cavities on each side leading to the room below, the center focus of the map which has two layers, even the foggy, quiet atmosphere. There would be no point in remaking Lockout if you already have Guardian, the maps are just too similar(like Isolation and Snowbound) geometrically.
Yes, guardian is obviously influenced by lockout, but it plays completely different.
In lockout you could find people from almost any point which would give people who knew how to focus fire a large advantage. Almost every room in lock out could be strategically held. However, in guardian everything is so constricted you usually cant see people from multiple perspectives(at least not nearly as much as a lockout inspired map should) and all the rooms are so damn small that if one person chucks a grenade the splash will take out everyone in it.
Atleast thats how i feel about it.
Agreed, guardian sucks compared to lockout, lockout is also a bigger in every way which gives more space to move around and survive. but the best thing about lockout was sticky launching, BRING IT BACK!!!! (please)
ooo, also falling of the map doesnt kill you instantly on lockout, whereas on guardian theres no chance to have ur hilarious revenge on the person who hammered you off the edge
