Vahalla is a more balanced version of what Blood Gulch was all about. But instead of getting sniped from across the map as soon as you spawn like in BG, you get a chance to fight. And the hill that makes that possible also makes for a position to fight for, causing less base camping. There was nothing to fight for in BG. It was a good map in Halo 1, but there are better now.

For the record what you just said, however true it may or may not be, supports that Valhalla is not a remake. Just throwing that out there mate.

I won't argue that Valhalla is better. I disagree, but that's an opinion. All I'm saying it that clearly there are no remakes of Blood Gulch at this time.

There's No Problem That Can't Be Solved With An Abundance Of Weed and A Jetpack.

Well what I said in my first post was that is was remade enough. No point in remaking it if we have a map that has it's basic concepts, but better.

Honestly, I don't care for any 'explanations' as to why Blood Gulch sucks. They're not exactly going to change my mind, are they? In the end, it's people's opinions that count, and there are a hell of a lot of people out there who hold the opinion that Blood Gulch rocked.

Well if everyone thought like that, there'd be no intelligent debate would there?

There doesn't need to be an intelligent debate. I like Blood Gulch. Burrito likes Blood Gulch. You don't like Blood Gulch. Let's just accept that, shall we?

Blood Gulch was a great map, and if it's in Halo 3, then I'll be overjoyed. Red vs Blue can finally move out of Valhalla!

Halo 2 is not shutting down....

The only rumour related to that is saying that ODST only has 100 friends or something stupid like that.

Provide me a legit source and I will believe you.

It's likely they could be putting Blood Gulch in Halo 3 now, since Halo 2 is shutting down, we have no way to play it online bar the PC. It would make a lot of sense to include BG with Halo: Mythic, and they've certainly got enough time to make it, ODST was finished back in May.


This enough?

No.

Nowhere in that article does it say Halo 2 is shutting down. They just used that title to hook in more readers.

Lurking like a baws. Totally. It's like totally important if I post because I barely post.

...

WHO EVEN LOOKS AT SIGNATURES ON BUNGIE.NET ANYWAY???

Why would they remake BG any more? They've remade it enough. Vahalla and Standoff are both remakes. BG was a boring and stale map.

because you were pissed off at not being able to pistol camp in Coagulation, I presume?

One word: VALLHALLA

One word: THE PIT.

Why are we naming random maps?

That's two words. =P

And BG for Halo 3 would be cool, but like others said, I'm not holding my breath.

Just like your emblem

Yes Blood Gulch should be remade it would be an awesome map

Im not going to doubt blood gulch is a good map but the camping is annoying, so i prefer to play it locally. i agree with thundercheeze about it being remade enough, i wouldn't want a map that has similar gameplay to 2 other maps.

blood gulch is still a good map but i think valhalla is a bit better. if valhalla wasn't in the game maybe this would workout.

on topic: if there is another free map i would like it to be ivory tower, it was my favorite map in halo 2 next to lockout, and for a map added in to ODST it would fit in since both the game and the map take place in new mombasa

Yes, I think we should get back on topic. This has practically become another BG thread.
