I wonder if this could be included in the next map pack after Defiant?

considering that they have probably only just started it, possibly. it is a massive map, which would take additional time to make, though...


the real truth lies in when they will see this thread and decide on an answer...

As a full blown Invasion m ap, this would be really epic and could attract more people back to Reach. It's a shame maps like this weren't included in the reatil copy of the game.

yeah true

I would like to be a Mythic Member, or a mod.

REALLY BAD. I believe I deserve it, I am very loyal to the dear Bungie forums and want to keep everything in tip-top shape. Its always a real pleasure to be on the forums and I want to be recognized here.

I am strongly with the popular vote.

But, although them guys seem to be making the maps, 343 are still incharge as they are the ones who controll Halo now.

No just because I think the entire maps of boneyard, spire, and forgeworld makes for huge warthog maps. Reach is lacking in the BTB map department. What we need is a Relic/Headlong Remake or a Waterworks/Containment remake.

Sandtrap was a garbage BTB map compared to the Halo 2 maps. Since Halo 3 is still playable over Xbox Live, Bungie should be looking at recreating maps and ideas from Halo 2 before Halo 3.

the problem with Forge world it that there's only Hemmorage which has anything close to a fun vehicle fight. Boneyard has way too much on it for vehicles IMO (eg, the ship) Spire is no good for Warthogs as most people are in the spire, the only fun vehicle fight is between the single Falcon and single Banshee. I understand what you're saying about Halo 2 remakes and I do agree, but I don't agree with what you say about the Warthog maps. This concept of Sandtrap will open up Reach for some seriously fun vehicle games, lots of Banshees, lots of Falcons, then you have the ground war. The only Ground-Air wars we have are the small encounters on Boneyard in phase 3, IMO, not much fun.

Problem is the players that don't like BTB or vehicles complained about Hemorrhage being "to open." I cannot imagine Bungie making a giant map where the outside is entirely open for vehicles and the center being some form of a structure. To be honest, Relic and Santrap are very similar maps in design (giant map with open outside and structure in the middle). Mabye combining the 2 into something would be a good start.
