I hate 'zero-g' in my MP maps... so... your idea gets a thumbs down. Sorry.
I could have just quoted this and left it at that, but I'll go for a little bit longer of a post. Zero gravity only ruins gameplay. I'm sure you can understand why if you've ever played Anchor 9 and, to a much more serious extent, Condemned. Your idea gets another thumbs down from me. I'd prefer a map that plays a lot like The Pit, Turf, or Construct over this. Good gameplay is much better than casual and idiotic ideas being put into maps. Anchor 9, Zealot, Condemned, and Backwash all come to mind as examples of stupid ideas, and they probably should not have been carried out. This map sounds worse than Backwash, Ascension, The Cage, or Condemned. If you're actually serious about this idea, you should quit Halo. Or at the very least never make a thread on any forum ever again.
Then don't play the map. There's a lot of other people who like the maps with low-g because it's a change in gameplay. Nobody said you would have to play the map. Halo 4 will no doubt have the maps that suit your style too, but it should also have some maps that would come into where most of the Halo battles were, in Space. Why does everyone want the same things as the previous Halos? If you want that, just play those games and get CEA.
You're missing the point. 343 won't make the same mistakes that Bungie made. Your idea promotes bad map design. 343 will probably go for a style inspired by maps like Lockout, The Pit, Derelict, Hang Em' High, Turf, Zanzibar, Headlong, Containment, Longest, Construct, and Midship. Leave space in the campaign. It doesn't belong in multiplayer. Space areas only break an otherwise good map, both Anchor 9 and Condemned being examples of this, and make bad maps even worse. Again, your idea is stupid and has no chance of being considered. The fact that you posted this dumb idea on Bungie.net rather than halo.xbox.com makes it even less likely.
