Your opinion is showing.


It isn't my opinion--it's a fact that these maps are bad. They're plagued by bad spawns, bad weapon balance, bad lines of sight, bad performance (screen lag), and just bad overall design in general.

Watch how these maps play with 2 extremely talented teams. An example wouled be Sword Base, Uncaged, Reflection, Pinnacle, etc. These maps favor one team over the other.

The only 'opinions' in these threads are whether or not you like the maps in spite of their flaws.

Still opinion.
And my opinion is, most forge world maps have bad spawning. And Derp Base.


We can toss around 'opinion' all day because we know everything is opinionated. Which is why we say 'fact' to differentiate between opinions that matter and those that do not.

It's a 'fact' that most forge world maps have bad spawning. We don't need to delve into each individual's opinion who's said that because these opinions are collectively correct. Therefore, we don't waste the energy discussing it.

In plain English, this means my OP is still correct. These maps are bad because of the objective evidence presented towards them, such as bad spawns. For instance, it isn't an opinion that Zealot has bad flag away spawns. It's a fact, and many posters have explained why. It isn't an opinion that Sword Base, Uncaged, and Reflection favor one team over the other. It's a fact, and many posters with relevant opinions have explained why.

Again, we can toss around 'opinion' all day, but the differentiation has already been made. Fact on this forum = relevant opinion.

If people think said maps are good(don't know why), that automatically renders your "fact" opinion.

The maps we have are all that we have. Some have short comings, but its likely none will be updated. Exploit the maps where to can to your advantage, and get better at those maps that prove difficult for you to dominate on. If you continue to try and get increase proficiency every time you play a map you dislike, they tend to be less painful to play. Regards and Happy Holidays.

I think you missed Crates' point. If someone said Sword Base was 'good', I think at least 3 people would recommend a psychologist, 1 person would pay for the session, and the rest would call him silly.

It's a consensus, not a fact. To be a fact, every single player in Reach would have to agree that Sword Base is bad.

personally think the only bad maps this game has is sword base (unless on multi team as there are few campers) and hemmorage, that map doesnt even deserve to be called a blood gultch remake

What's wrong with the maps in this game? I like all of them except Reflection and that horse -blam!- trio of maps they recently added to the Slayer playlist (eden prime, chateau & renova)


You mean you like Uncaged, Pinnacle, Think Twice, Precipice, and Sword Base?


oops forgot to put uncaged on the list...horrible map. Pinnacle's decent, don't like it in SWAT tho. I like think twice okay & i totally dig precipice - got an untouchable there once! Sword base would be more tolerable if people didnt vote for it EVERY time...

All New/er maps that have screen lag. WTF
Highlands.
Scope across map.
Rage!
Prisoner- Look down with any weapon that has a scope.

Not even going to waste a bullet.
Damn glass floors I tell yeah!.
CA's mind: Aesthetics > gameplay


Pretty much. They tried to hard to jam so much detail for nothing. I'll admit, I love the map (for 2v2) but 4v4? Nope.

Its sad when you think about it. A lot of the good maps that support fair play are re-hash old maps.

Sanc
Beaver Creek
The Pit

Zealot is up for debate since its not a true remake.

On a side note. I like Reflection. With ZBNS, I find it flows a lot better. Hate me if you will. Halo 2 fanboy.
