Subject: What is wrong with the Crimson Map Pack?

I gaze upon the stars and see the majesty that is the universe.


EGO mos bulla astrum.

Shattered reminds me of a revamped Waterworks. The map has several tunnels and good control areas on the bases. Plus they're huge. No more emphasis on these crappy small maps you could easily just Forge. Plus it's a great CTF map if you have some teamwork and are able to use the Mantises effectively.n

Wreckage is a bit cluttered but hardly bad. It has enough cover to allow Warthogs to kick ass but also give infantry a chance. A giant ship is there to control or heck the cliffs to control so you can destroy the enemy below.

Harvest is probably one of the best. It's fairly small enough for 4v4 or 5v5 and is probably the best CTF map in the game. Frequent pushes down the middle and a Warthog ring around it. Honestly it feels a bit like Rat's Nest with a few more vehicles. Love this map.

Good. The bigger the maps the better.

Not for a competitive 4 V 4 setting.

I agree the maps are quite well designed, but we just didn't need them.

CTF is god. Praise his name. For the flag is his holy messiah.

Harvest is difinitely the gem of the three. I have played slayer, KoTH and Flag on it and flag plays great.

It actually reminds me a bit of a broken apart and extended/expanded elongation. Good mix of urbanish(?) type combat and enough room for hogs to play.

Watch out. If I post in your thread, chances are it'll die. I've been cursed, and if I kill your thread, I'm sorry.

They're too big for 4v4.

Not a single one is actually small or is even closed off for a 4v4 anywhere.

Nahman Jayden, Eff bee eye. I herd that you're the origammy killah...

Wreckage=burial mounds
Harvest=sorta like elongation
Shatter=Waterworks
My only complaint is now i want competitive arena style maps

yeah this reminds me of the time i got sent to jail for stealing crocs from target becozs i wanted all of the colors because i only got the green wons for my birthday and i wanted more ;)

Halo 4 is already lacking good FFA/4v4 maps so lets just make more BTB maps!

The only people who don't like the crimson map pack, haven't played it!

I understand that part, but I don't understand why people tolerate it and mindlessly buy -blam!- that probably could have shipped with the game.

The Internet is an empowerment tool that's agnostic; it doesn't care about race, gender, or age.

I only like Harvest tbh, the rest are meh.

This was my immediate thought upon seeing it.

Harvest is ok. Perfect for Team Snipers probably if they still had that. In fact, if they merely added Team Snipers as a gametype in the Crimson playlist then it would be much better.

not big enough

I don't think that means what you think it means.

On a related note, ******'s mom has really nice boobs, and it doesn't take much booze or encouragement to get her to let the puppies out of the pen...if you know what I mean...

LMAO

It was free for most people.

I don't understand how anyone could like this garbage.

  • 12.12.2012 5:21 PM PDT

Bones of my enemies.

The buildings in the center of Harvest need a little more. Overall, that map is bland as hell. It needs more rooms or something.


I don't understand how anyone can love Harvest.

Its a term I use loosely. They care more about money as opposed to their actual fans. Cashing in and trying to sell maps as opposed to adding in campaign theater and more custom options.

I'm still annoyed that MS went back on their word and erased the Map Pack for people who got it free.

Your 'beliefs' mean less than dick to me.

Shatter is absolutely enormous and the other two aren't small enough for 4v4.
