Ooh, I love those people, the ones who decide to throw everything and the kitchen sink at you, as if an M16 does anything to a T-90. Oh, MLG player with noobtube instead? Congrats! You blew off one of my ablative plates!

In my opinion it would be a great map if they removed the variant WITH the shield doors(yes, no shield doors) and set up the equipment and power weapons smarter.
No shotgun, rockets replace OS and Sniper replace invis. There doesn't need to be a god damn power up on every map.

Replace the power up with something else.

I only really like it for SWAT and small Free For Alls.

I don't know why I don't enjoy Epitaph, but I never really have. Its a gut reaction to the flow of gameplay (I have similar feelings about Isolation).

The level is not badly designed, but the weapons layout and gametypes aren't that good either. The only thing I really like playing on it is KOTH in Multi-Team because everyone is just having fun and making things go boom.

people dont like epitaph because it is mainly based on weapon and map control. map control being camo people dont like it because there are a lot of oppurtunities to crouch and ambush opponents instead of going head to head. It is less of a skill map than the pit for example where there are long sight and less places to camp. But the epitaph is a good map because it utilizes a players smarts rather than their skill.

Obsessively social with an adamant penchant for ranked playlists.

Looking for a group to create an XBL TS Reach team. PM me.

Epitaph has a very different flow from other maps. This is, as previously mentioned, due to the opportunities for ambush. You could spend the whole game on the second level and "radar follow" other people for easy kills.

I don't understand why so many people go onto the lower floor. I love sitting atop the level, perched as if I were Batman and taking easy kills off the floor wings. All you need is a BR and grenades to rack up an immense amount of kills in very little time.

My third montage!

I don't know either. Mostly it comes down to personal preference really as well as the shield doors, I actually prefer Epilogue.

I think Epitaph got a bad rep from the start due to weapon placement and pairing it with gametypes that didn't work well with it from the start.

I SO miss playing team games on Epitaph. However it is great for FFA and oddly enough SWAT.

However you'll find most people will disagree and just say it's a bad map. I think it's much better than say default foundry, or Assembly.

Because the weapon layout on it is awful, and it's ridiculously unbalanced.

Go Reach.

I love Epitaph :D

  • 08.31.2010 1:03 PM PDT

Go Reach.

I despise Isolation though, I don't know why, I just don't like it and I seem to always do bad there :P
