Subject: To this day I've never understodd

...why Hang 'em High/Tombstone/High Noon/whatever name it goes by was such a popular map, at least for Slayer purposes. It's SO unbalancd with SUCH a high emphasis on controlling one area of the map. I facepalm every time it gets voted for a Slayer gametype, because I already know what the gameplay is going to consist of. One sided Objective games are fun there, but no one ever votes Objective when Slayer is a choice...

Inheritor #156 :p

And not to mention the 15 shotguns on the map, I swear their is a shotgun for every player.

It's horrible in anniversary classic, shooting across the map with a pistol the whole time or hiding on the stairs with a shotgun.

I do enjoy playing it, But in Slayer, I find it too easy to defend myself at one general area. It's either the bad enemies or the fact that the highest point on the map is quite dominating.

I've been robbed of several Perfection on the map because I kill some guy running at me with a Shotgun, only to be killed by his teammate behind him, who had a Shotgun. Matter of fact, I remember killing TWO Shotgun users in a row just to be finishd off by a third one once.

I think there are something like six Shotguns on the map in Anniversay gametypes. Absurd.

its my least favourite of the new 7 for that reason
2 sides of the map are so unbalanced the one controlling the bigger side makes it so easy

This^^
All maps are bad in Anniversary gameplay, 4 grenades on one spawn location etc WTF is that old BS gameplay doing in Reach, every time it gets picked its just 15 min of slow azz gameplay where one team might get to about 70 kills or so then it's time up.

i like it. i haven't had a problem with running into multiple shotgun whores in a row tho.

  • 12.08.2011 11:05 AM PDT

I hate Hang Em High. If I were to add a map I would either choose Waterworks or Foundation from Halo 2.

So many -blam!- shotguns. CA didn't need to copy the weapon placement that much, because it doesn't work at all in Reach.

I'd have added Boarding Action myself. No one ever remember that map though, which is probably why it never got remade. Most underrated Halo map ever in my opinion.

I wouldn't call it BS, but old Halo gameplay and mechanics will never feel nice and cozy with Reach. Reach is too different and broken to ever really play like previous Halo's.

You're a moron. Because if I disliked ANY map from the HOLY GRAIL that was CE I obviously either never played it or understood the gameplay at a high level.

Yes, I understand it's most prudent strategy to win. Yes, I do it myself. That doesn't mean that I have to enjoy it.

  • 12.08.2011 12:41 PM PDT

Yay yuh!!!!!

I do not like the map. i think it's to open or something is just not right with it to me

  • 12.08.2011 12:41 PM PDT

I want my elephant back.
Give it to me now!
(Please?)

Me.

lol

I've never understodd either.

  • 12.08.2011 12:47 PM PDT

only you guys would complain about a map that is exactly the same as the original. they already went over this like 10 years ago
