You like jetpacks and swordbase, you're retarded.

Jet pack and SB huh? Retard alert.

Lol OP is a joke who boosted in Arena and still thinks retarded and unbalanced maps need to stay

Sword Base, Reflection, and Uncaged need to go. And while I'm thinking of it, Countdown and die in a sewer of AIDS for all I care.

Reflection wouldn't be that bad if the starting spawns were moved to what they were in H2. Weapon placements shouldn't need to be removed, especially if ZB was introduced and AA's taken out. At least as starting loadouts.

Obviously movement speed an jump height would need to be increased w/o Sprint and even some forge objects placed to make the old H2 jumps possible again.


Crouchdown could be replaced with MLG Countdown.

Aesthetics is an art, your body is the canvas, weights are your brush and nutrition is your paint. We all have the ability to turn a self portrait into a masterpiece

Jetpack breaks the game on so many fundamental levels; it needs to go and almost the entireity of the consistent arena popoulation agrees on this.

Reflection, uncaged and sworbase need to go as well; these are all terrible maps that gives a good team an insurmountable advantage right off the start that almpost always decided the match. Boardwalk isn't as bad, but the spawns definately need tweaked for better map symmetry.

New, symmetrical forge maps need introduced

I think Reflection should stay and they should switch the initial spawns to the shotty and double lift (dragon) sides of the map. (I think that's how it was in Halo2, I can't remember.)

That is exactly how it was. Bungie can't remake their own maps correctly.

nope, the map just cannot work. There is no emphasis on teamwork whatsoever, and the map consists almost entirely of sharp corners and vertical drops.

Awhile back a few people playtested the map with neatral spawns and no jetpack, and it still played out terribly. It is an awful map that just does not work for reach in any circumstance. Replace it with a symmetrical forged map i say.

Do not play halo much anymore. Barely ever come on here.

Is the arena ranking system no longer based on win/loss?

I'm sure it still is

Boltshot = mini shotgun

After playing Arena on Zealot earlier, I can honestly say take out the loljetpack(v1). It would also be nice to play some CTF or Stockpile in it(v2).
