Please explain your response.

The Pit is one of my favorite maps in any of the Halo games. To me it had great balance and an ideal variety of weapons. I enjoyed it in almost every playlist/gametype I came across. From lone wolves to doubles to MLG it seemed like a perfect competitive map. What do you think?

Halo 3

one of them

Weapons are all neatly placed, and it's symmetrical.

if you do you will probably hear me say "jesus flying kangeroo balls a lot".

One of them, Gaurdian is the best halo 3 map in my opinion

Vengeance only leads to an ongoing cycle of hatred.

I like almost all of Halo 3's maps. The Pit is one of my favorite. *Looks at Reach's maps* Yeah, we were very lucky to have maps like The Pit in H3.

I liked it, but I felt it was overrated.

I hated Guardian. I've always hated it with a passion.

I love The Pit though. It's great for everything!

It's a good map, but when you get two teams of non-tards the gameplay slows down considerably, it's kind of annoying sometimes.

Guess I'll have to defer to your expert and statistically robust estimates :(

I do like your tactic of being deliberately obtuse then accusing me of being stupid when I try to surmise what you're actually saying. Very clever.

No its not, library is totally different, lockout is larger, on lockout you can view full length bottom, ramp to ramp, also there are other more subtle differences!

OT: The pit is one of the best halo maps yes

It's a pretty good map, but it's not that great.

U Mirin?

Why don't you do any work on your chest or legs or something? You look like a cartoon character.

The Pit is the best map in Halo 3, in my opinion.

I've always had trouble combatting a sniper at one of the towers on The Pit, especially o
If they have a regen.

But yes, it's definitely the best map in Halo 3, although I play Guardian far more often in customs

I agree. That's why it failed in MLG. The only real Halo 2 map to really translate well while keeping the same general mapstyle was Heretic.

Hanger one I just shredded with the SMGs until ammo was out and I just threw 'nades like a boss while BRing.

My experience playing Cairo Station on Legendary

The Pit had Small contained battles that were often jam packed with fun. Weapon spawns were fair and balanced.

Burn Bright. Burn Blue.

I loved the combination of long sigth lines and close quarters combat.
