I was wondering, when i was playing Halo 1 for mac, (sorry massive pc fans). i was playing on blood gulch, and i though, i wish they would bring this back and the other maps. What does the community think?
Also I don't mean the remake of like sidewinder (avalanche to those who haven't played halo 1) or chill out (Cold storage).

[Edit]:

If you want BUngie to bring back maps that have been changed like sidewinder and Avalanche, choose selected maps. thank you

Maybe bungie could do an official poll and bring back only the most popular maps, this would mean that they could put their creative talent into making new and even better maps while bringing back some fan favourites. They could also change the weather effects in remade maps to make them look new. e.g. a remake of Blood Gulch/Coagulation but covered in snow instead of grass.

got all the bruises
will someone please step in?

I don't see bungie bringing any map back without changes. And you guys mention Blood Gulch but it did come back. Valhalla is pretty much blood gulch for H3. Yeah, its not the same... but its the thought that counts.

also.. for the record Bungie, please don't bring back sandtrap.

Thats what I mean but not like sidewinder and avalanche, i mean the exact same map but redone with better graphics and stuff and in forge, A.I would be good to put in there like Halo: CE : Custom Edition.

Boarding Action should be brought back.

Agreed, but updated with updated graphics, Man Cannons, destructible environments and turrets so it would be like an actual ship to ship battle.

they're like, not the same, sir.
it's like saying "guardian is lockout. yea, it's not the same, but it's the thought that counts".
bungie called valhalla a SPIRITUAL SUCCESSOR to blood gulch. they also said that guardian is a spiritual successor to lockout.

they remade lockout.................... they need to remake BG.

i said "pretty much" so its not like I tried to say they were exactly the same... but I see your point. I'd be ok with a real blood gulch remake, but I think as they add new features to the game, the old layout might not play as well as we remember. Just a though.

in all honesty, I don't see why an exact remake of coagulation wouldn't work. just upgrade the graphics (obviously) and change some minor things to suit the gameplay... but that really is all.

They already bought back halo 1 and 2 maps if u pay close attention ull notice almost all of halo 3s maps are taken from halo 1 or halo 2 theres a similar campaign map on either 1 like the last lvl of h3 was a rerun of halo 1 last lvl

  • 10.17.2009 2:29 PM PDT

Yes it is spelt like that on purpose.

If Blood Gultch and lockout could be brought back for Reach I would be very happy. Also like someone already said, boarding action would be a great revived map.

Yes we know that with valhalla and others but we are talking about the vintage maps, like boarding action, is there one for that, no. That is what we are talking about.

I think we are in agreement that boarding action should be brought back, but i was wondering and a space battle for that one, like star wars battlefront, but no the same but the same idea, any suggestions?

Yeah a space battle could be good, one covenant ship, one human ship. Turrets on both ships so players can damage the other team's ship. In a hanger there would be a pelican/ Covenant Dropship from Halo 1, other 1 man ships like Banshees and a human ship that flies in space. HEVs could also be used to launch people into the other ship through the walls.

That would be pretty funny, you could use longswords and short swords because they were invented before Halo Wars which is set before reach. They can fly in space as well,or you could use modified hornets or steal hawks or hawx, cant remember the spelling in halo wars and say they were destroyed.

no, sandtrap was amazing. It was a large, asymmetrical map with indoor and outdoor combat, the only other map I can think of like that is Zanzibar/Last resort, and that's not on the same scale as sandtrap.

but yeah, remakes of the H1/H2 maps would be awesome, i miss coag.
