GameBattles Team:

I know I do... Guardian seemed a little too simple and straight forward though compared to Lockout. I really hope that a newer map like this would be a little more complex, not any more than Lockout was though.

I don't want like a crazy maze of suspended platforms and walkways, but with a nice layout and flow like Lockout, but still different enough for a completely new feel. I also like how shortcuts can be used in getting around maps like this and falling is the untimate price if you miss.

I would hope Bungie builds in a few alternate, riskier ways around the maps as well. But I just hope there's a new map in Reach that fits in the same category as Lockout and Guardian.

Anyone agree? Or ideas or anything?

I definitely do! Lockout was very popular in Halo 2, and Guardian was very popular in Halo 3. So yeah I would want a map that fits into Lockout and Guardian's category, but what type of environment do you think it should have?

Stick To Your Guns

Yeah I like both of those maps. Open air ones are what alot of my favourite maps are whether they are big or small.

I really hope they make an exact replica of lockouts map geometry this time.

And a new smaller map somewhat like guardian as well.

If a map like this would be created for Reach, I hope they take minimal cues from Guardian. Sure, that's a good map (In Halo 3's map roster), but it has some terrible balancing issues (at least with the Defualt version), and in competitive games, Team Slayer is extremely slow. The game essentially becomes a standoff between gold room and Snipe Tower, where if gold room players take a peak, they get sniped.

Bungie, if you make a map like Lockout/Guardian, take more inspiration from Ascension and/or Lockout than Guardian.
