Do you want your map considered for Halo: Reach matchmaking? Does it support MM gametypes? Send off an email to cartographers@bungie.org or PM me a link and description to your map for submission to the Community Cartographers. I may respond to you for updates to your map, so be sure to be open for communication and critique.

Hi /r/halo on Reddit!

I liked it, unfortunately the 360 choking on active camo on that map killed it off :(

You don't know how hard I was trying to make Backwash the last recorded game of Halo 2.

It was a great map for Zombies, Juggernaut and Hide and Seek.

It's a shame the XBox emulator for the 360 couldn't do planar fog correctly, hence the ghosted images.

Loved backwash!

Correct me if I'm wrong, but for the last set playlists in halo 2, back wash wasn't available in matchmaking at all =[

That's one thing I loved about halo 2, the maps were so unique.

All it took was a stew of whoopass.

As much as I hate playing Halo maps (especially Halo 2 maps) alone, Backwash is one of the maps I hate to play on by myself. It just sends chills of fear through my body and makes my mind spin with fear. It was epic, though the few times I actually played it.

This is actually the stupidest thing ever posted on B.net:

Why does everyone hate Halo 2? Maybe its because its the worst game ever next to mario.

Come on, it had the 2401 Penitent Tangent flying around! Backwash was completley underrated.

All throughout history great empires rise and fall. How you ask?
Two reasons:
1. Economic failure because of either inflation or socialistic programs.
2. War. Their armies were spread too thin and too far from home.

The United States has bases all around the world in "hazardous" areas and it's economy collapses it seems every 20 years. Do you really think that history won't change? Do you really think that you can run the world?

I liked Backwash. I played most of my Backwash games on the Original Xbox, so I didn't really experience the bad stuff on the 360.

halo 2 still the best game in the series. long live halo 2.

Dam, I miss the old days playing halo 2 with my old brothers in arms. Thank you my old friends for giving me this account, I shall continue our legacy.

It was the most perfect map for zombies, but sadly you couldn't play any matches on that map in matchmaking.
