The one thing this game needs -- as much, if not more than a patch -- are solid arena sized maps. So far there are zero quality small maps (it's a stretch to say that Countdown and Zealot are good), that are not forged.
Traditionally, the best, and most loved maps in previous Halo titles were the smaller symmetrical maps.
Halo: CE had: Prisoner, Damnation, Battle Creek, Chill Out, Wizard, Derelict.
Halo 2 had: Lockout, Midship, Sanctuary, Warlock, Beaver Creek.
Halo 3 had: The Pit, Heretic, Guardian, and MAYBE Narrows.
Seems to be a trend with less and less solid maps. So far in Halo: Reach all the maps that have been made are designed for BTB play. Of the 14 multiplayer maps so far, including these last 2, there will be 7 maps (50%!) dedicated to BTB play.
It's really a shame this game is going to go to waste because of a lack of patch and/or decent competitive maps. Looks like I'll be continuing my 3 year streak of not buying a single Halo map pack.
I must dis-agree. We actually only have one REAL BTB map, and that is Tempest from the last map pack. All the other ones are either FW or Invasion, and Invasion and BTB maps are most defiantly not the same thing.
