Tell me, do you think maps like this would be a good addition to Halo: Reach

Map Name:

Location: Outer Space

Rules:
-Teams: up to 4 teams max of 8 players per team, 16 players per game eg if there are 4 teams 4 people per team,
Any type of game eg. slayer could be played.

Structures:
Two main structures, each with four airlocks to which a vehicle can be attached
1-2 asteroids that float around, maybe a few abandoned vehicles and weapons there.

Vehicles:
Pelican, Hawk*, Banshee, Phantom, Spirit, Vulture*, Vampire*, Longsword, Seraph
*Vehicles from Halo Wars

Description:
Each big base has 4 airlocks which can be used for pelicans or other vehicles, Turrets are on the outside of the base and can be fired from the control room at incoming vehicles
. Windows can be smashed to create strong (not deadly) vacuum, sucking nearby objects out into space(bulkheads close after a few seconds).
A central section in the base where airlocks can be locked down, gravity disabled, turrets fired, and bulkheads closed(to prevent the chance of someone smashing the windows).
*Vehicles such as pelicans and the covenant equivalent could be used as CTF objectives or a new gametype where you have to destroy a certain vehicle(thanks to Capt Daget for this)

The asteroids have a small cave with bulkheads that sense vehicles and open, allowing vehicles to dock and access other vehicles, weapons and powerups.

Each base has a series of corridors, most with windows, but some without. Each base is about 100mX100m, with the out facing corridors long and open and the interior corridors closed off and close quarters.
A few weapons are scattered around, with sniper rifles, BRs, ARs, Spartan Lasers and rocket launchers in the outer corridors, with SMGs and Shotguns in the interior.

I know this subject has been brought up alot so i'm sorry if this is spamming your Bungie account, but I suddenly had a burst of inspiration.

Elites beat EVERYTHING.

I think more than 4 players per team is needed, give the game an "epic feel". 6 would be alright, but Halo Reach's new engine might support more than that, which would be fantastic for space battling!

thanks for being the first one to post on this thread apart from me. XD
*I meant 4 teams. maybe a max of 16 players is good

Beware the smiley face! =D

With Longswords and teams of 10 or maybe more, this would be fantastic!

Just enjoy the damn game!
Who cares about BR vs AR

Maybe in a separate Halo Universe game, but not in Reach.

What spectagon are you in?

4 player teams with that many vehicles.

I never really thought an outer space map would be cool, but this one could be. I would make some refinements, but a good idea overall.

Need a map reviewed? Try The Forging Assembly!

a good idea for a map but i think an UNSC outer space base doesnt follow the halo cannon properly, maybe have a map in orbit over a planet? Reach? That would be cool. And maybe teams of up to 10 would be amazing. I love your idea with the windows smashing and vacumn etc

it is a very good idea especially the pelicans (always wanted to fly one) a new name and this would make an awesome map!

I meant to say a space platform in orbit around a planet
The vacuum could suck people into space maybe killing them, or leaving them as sitting ducks for the snipers at the other base.

Thanks! I always wanted to fly a pelican more than the other vehicles, it's a pity Bungie didn't allow us to fly them

I hunt for the Prophet of Contentment, the San 'Shyumm that murdered my son, and stole his birthright, his Energy Sword. They call our species Heretics. They claim to all that our tongues sting, our words a vile poison that feeds on the unworthy. I have seen the true face of Heresy. The head of a gallant warrior lay on the ground. His neck scorched and blistered, scarred by his own blade. I shall retrieve the weapon, and drive it through that bastard's heart! Punishment for his sins is nigh.

First thing, Change the name a little pit. Then, fix the Covenan't Dropship's name also, it is a Spirit by the way.

Then add Longswords and Seraphs.

And boom, a little better... though still not fantastic. Im gonna give it an "If they do it they do it, if they don't, whatever."

Just for reference the original Covenant dropship is called a Spirit dropship
