I have been playing alot of arena lately since I got back into Reach and am having trouble with these forge world maps, I was wondering if anybody out there has got any tips to improve my (and others) play on the following maps:

Synapse
Kingdom
Select
...and others

I do fine on the orginal maps that shipped with the game and the DLC, but I cannot for the life of me get the hang of the forge world maps. It seems that wherever you are positioned you can get shot from multiple directions and can get quite frustrating, and it seems to be difficult to get the jump on the enemy when they can see you wherever you are coming from.

Also would disabling custom content block these maps in matchmaking? As I find there are too many of these forge world creations in MM.

Forget it man, and get with the countdown. Shake this square world and blast off for Kicksville.

Reach host ranking algorithm: (a*quit_percentage + b*isMexican + c*(1/KDR) + d*hasGuest) * 100
where a > b = d > c

I don't know whether or not I should admit to this, but I like Synapse a lot.

Select is so awful though.

I played on Select in Doubles.

It's too big for a playlist like that.

Gah, I hate Select in Doubles. Everytime I play it I get ripped.

You should have seen me and my little brother today on that map...

On second thought, you should not have seen it.

We played on it. Twice.

We lost on it. Twice.

We were outclased, outgunned, outplayed, outmatched, and outouted. Twice.

I fear for my K/D. Not that it matters so much, but I think I might have gone limp somewhere...

I like the maps, but I find them hard to get used to. Everybody seems to be beastly on them.

I don't like the small forge world maps but I like most of the large ones. (excluding the one with the falcons)

What about if you were playing Double Team?
