The new maps are good. But i still think the classic maps from the origional halo 2 are outstanding. My main concearns are for Team Slayer. The new maps will work perfectly for Team Skirmish I do believe. But theres only one maps I really 1 maps out of the most recent five, that I actually enjoy playing slayer on... That would be Gemini. Also, Coagulation needs to be taken out of the Team Slayer category, or atleast make it regular slayer. With the Human Slayer BR, The three rockets truly, truly kills it. The only good thing to do is camp out on the cliff, near the rockets spawn, and use the sniper.
Now back to the new map issue. Terminal - Is just to big for 8 people you can hardly ever find anyone, Hopefully, it will be in only big team, maybe team skirmish.
Relic- I think just plain sucks, you guys worked hard to make a great map, but... It completely ruled by the snipers, becuase you can get sniped almost anywhere. For Skirmish on relic, the idea of a long way to get the flag serves no purpose...You just rush the flag with a hog and then throw the flag straight off the edge, and slowly move it towards your base as you get picked off by the constant onslaught of sniper raining down upon me. The map works slightly for Assault, but it's almost impossible to score when there team has a sniper right on top of you. I know, your supposed to go kill there sniper, but it seems whenever you try, you get picked off.
Elongation, is complete madness. I really hate this level, it's ruled by newb combos, (which are so convieniently placed) and dual weilds. I hardly ever play on Elongation, but when I do, It sucks. p. s. for Elongation. The CTF Classic doesn't help...
Backwash- Backwash is an odd level the fog really works, I guess. I actually sort-of like backwash. It seams like a great Double Team or Team Slayer/Skirmish level. I have nothing more to say about it then, Why is it so damn hard to get outside of. If anyone knows an easy way, please, tell me.
Gemini, I really enjoy playing on. It has almost everyweapon, and it seems to not be ruled by anyone of them... Good work on Gemini.
Now, as I read what I have just wrote I think, Who the hell is going to read this?
