Subject: What's the deal with Blood Glutch?

I'm just a guy like you that plays halo.

Why does everyone love it so much? It actually seems pretty bad for gameplay. Only thing I could see it any good for is maybe a vehicle war of some sort.

It's a little too levelled for my taste. One base can see the other. I enjoy the hill on Valhalla.

  • 11.05.2009 12:32 PM PDT

Personally I'd agree, its pretty flat. Nothing wrong with reimagining it into something like Vahalla, just don't leave in horribly huge lines of sight.

  • 11.05.2009 12:33 PM PDT

I don't know why, but most of players love that map, and it's too flat, in my opinion.
Maybe, they love it because it's one of the first maps they've played

I guess that explains why I loved Guardian... Oh wait I didn't.
I think it is because of Red vs Blue. Am I ryt?

What is Blood Glutch?

Do understand, Blood Gultch was one of two vehicle maps in Halo CE, at least for the console.

Back then, there was no matchmaking, if you wanted to play, you had to do lan parties. And you had to do it with friends. No -blam!-s to ruin the experience, no lag, fun gameplay...

All those memories are preserved by time, and is why people like the map so much.

What is Blood Glutch?

You must be new to Halo, so let me explain.

Blood Gulch, aka Coagulation in Halo 2, is one of the two vehicle based multiplayer maps in Halo: Combat Evolved. It is well balanced for vehicle CTF, and other symmetrical objective gametypes, although Big Team Slayer works well here too. It is best played with large groups of players. It has a basic setup, with two bases in a box canyon, with some flattish terrain between the two. It is the setting for the first few seasons of the hugely popular Machinima series from RoosterTeeth, Red vs Blue.

Blood Gulch is Numero Uno!

I am the leader of the Halo Machinima team TEAMHALOSWAT, or THS for short. Make sure to visit www.teamhaloswat.blogspot.com for THS news.

Blood Gulch: it's huge, it's flat, it's totally around vehicle combat

Valhalla: it's somewhat big, it has a hill so ppl on the ground can have some cover, and it can have lots of vehicles without filling space

overall: Valhalla wins, i love that map waaay better than Blood Gulch (which im glad they didnt remake)

People dont actually honestly think that blood gultch is a great map. They just love to complain about it.

Non Nobis Nascimur - We are not born for ourselves.

Blood Gulch is the most awesomeness map ever. Good weapons, good vehicles, and good terrain. The only down side was it was a little too big and walking from base to base took forever.

CTF is god. Praise his name. For the flag is his holy messiah.

My third montage!

It's nostalgia, and the fact that it was popularized by rooster teeth. I'm not saying it isn't a great map, but there were much better maps halo 1. Damnation, Tombstone, Boarding action. Timberland, Danger Canyon, Death Island and Infinity were much better maps in my opinion.

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

Tell that to that dude that had the like 7 paragraph explainanation to why Blood Gulch was the best. Quite frankly, it kinda sucked.

LOL yeah, to me it's like hostball, it's just overhyped. To each their own I suppose.

Yeah thats part of the reason i love blood gulch..its got a lot of sentimental value..since it was a classic in halo 1 and 2.
I think it has good gameplay too though, i like the way large ctf and assault games play out, the site lines make you more vulnerable, so you need a better strategy

  • 11.05.2009 1:29 PM PDT

Blood Gulch has some cover, but it's still mostly open. This is the source of its greatness. It supports much more fluid gameplay than Valhalla. It's also the best CTF map ever.

Retard, that's called a typo. You see a lot of them on the Internet, since almost no one here knows how to freakin' SPELL.

Look out.... -boom- (headshot)
I told you to look out, but know, you got in my way, was going to shoot that splaser....

It's a good thin you said almost, or else I'd have taken offense to that statement.

I enjoy Blood Gulch because it was one of the first maps to play, had an even load out at both bases, was fun to have Hog wars, and ,obviously, Red vs Blue. Sentimental values aside, I actually enjoy Valhalla better because it gave a lot more cover, had banshees, and , in my opinion, had the best idea ever, the man cannon!
