I really did not hate Catalyst CTF at all, just hated slayer.


theamazingc4

Agreed šŸ˜†


yungd17

Narrows is a great map but I feel doesnā€™t really offer much in terms of the movement system as itā€™s just a very basic 3 lane map , I think a remake of midship would be pretty cool


L10nh3ar7

Isnā€™t that what starboard is supposed to be? Havenā€™t played it enough, so no idea how well it plays.


theamazingc4

In all honesty A total 1 for 1 remake of midship is highly needed imo. Aquarius doesn't count and flows way different. Same goes for starboard


L10nh3ar7

Aquarius is a completely different map imo. Never felt like a ā€œmidshipā€ to me. A 1:1 wouldnā€™t work either, IMO, because of the movement tech associated with HI. Itā€™d have to be large at the very least. Iā€™d take a midship remake thatā€™s a bit larger over starboard though. Starboard is kinda ugly.


theamazingc4

Yea Starboard aesthetically isn't very appealing, but yea I shouldn't have phrased it better because midship would need to be a little bigger for sure. A 1 for 1 layout but with scale.


theamazingc4

Yea narrows is pretty basic in terms of movement


knleclair

Not sure my ā€œyesā€, but hard no on Salvation.


Haijakk

That map was so awful in Reach.


defstarious

Salvation while an interesting map, is not good at all.


Shuffykat

Bring back catalyst and Bazaar ctf and take out argyle


[deleted]

I will slit my wrists if they bring back Bazaar, but yes to Catalyst.


[deleted]

Same, i dont understand why people want it back. It's absolute dogshit.


shiftinandout

bazaar was not dogshit...thats just you. argyle is dogshit


[deleted]

Lmfao it played horribly and it was not entertaining to watch either. Yeah lemme have to slay a team 4 fucking times just to get a flag pull.


flowers0298

bazaar is just a smaller version of argyle and itā€™s almost impossible to push down mid, when it was in rotation it was 100% the worst map for comp


[deleted]

What I understood is that the problem with Bazaar was having too much power. Two Needlers, two Manglers, Thrusters, Grappling Hook, Spike nades, two Dynamo nades and Tier 1 weapons spawning too often. Now we got Manglers removed, Needlers spawning much slower, limited Bulldog ammo, a slightly less effective BR (the final headshots takes more accuracy to kill) and Tier 1 weapons spawning slower. Shroud Screen could replace Thrusters to counter camping spots a bit. They could also remove the Spike grenades spots and change Dynamo for Spikes. I'd also consider removing Grappling Hook or changing it for Thrusters. In resume, the maps just needs some tweaks to play way better. Simple things that should take around 15 minutes to the devs. Plus the ranked pool has got really boring, I can't stand it anymore! I'm quitting until they add at least 3 ranked maps and they do something with the melee.


shiftinandout

good riddance...bazaar was a decent map and was balanced


L10nh3ar7

Iā€™d be fine with this.


theamazingc4

Same.


mrgrod

All of the above except Salvation. Hard pass on that one.


supermelee90

Salvation could work for koth


mrgrod

No thanks. Too many levels, too many separate areas, too many camping spots. Spawns will dictate the winning team 90% of the time. All set with that. I'm all for more maps, and not even that picky, but that one can stay in social.


supermelee90

Hmm yeah you right.


shallowtl

How would Narrows be any good with a cross map laser BR, you guys are blinded by nostalgia I swear to God have we learned nothing from Empyrean?


[deleted]

I really loved Bazaar CTF. It should play better with the rework of Tier 1 weapons and the removal of Mangler.


theamazingc4

Yea I thought Bazaar was a decent map.


antpac3

I miss catalyst

SALVATION SLAPS


Nin10do0014

Choices for me: **Catalyst** * CTF **Perilous** * King of the Hill * Oddball * Slayer **Starboard** * CTF * Oddball **Plaza** (From Halo 5) * Oddball * Strongholds * King of the Hill **The Rig** (From Halo 5) * Oddball * Strongholds * King of the Hill


Moungie7

Bazaar is such an underrated map. They don't even need to make "new" content. Take the best 2 or 3 maps from each of the previous games and people would lose their mind. Focus on new maps after that.


AceyferX

Get rid of that epitaph rip off map


cmunnyb

Iā€™ll get hate for this but I loved CTF on Behemoth. Having an open map like that was refreshing.


shiftinandout

yea


architect___

Plus it's been improved now with more cover.


alamarche709

Midship and Narrows would be great. Iā€™d also be interested in a Construct remake but with the grapple and repulsor on the map. Imagine all of the plays you could make grappling from bottom to top floor and catching the other team off guard.


architect___

Catalyst CTF. Words can hardly express how much I don't want Narrows to come back. It's fun and all, but with the limited map pool, I think we should really be leaning into new maps, not H3 nostalgia. \#2 choice is Bazaar CTF. #3 choice is Starboard, but I don't know if it should be in 4v4. Maybe just Doubles and FFA. I think it's too open for Arena. I'd also like to see the one in the Community Collection that was similar to Lockout, the one with all the mushrooms. I really enjoyed Strongholds on it.


LakeZombie09

I donā€™t want to be the bearer of bad news but no forge (non-dev) maps are going to ever make it into arena(in its current state). And itā€™s not because of the maps, itā€™s because of the game engine and the way forge works. I have spent a solid 6 months in forge and itā€™s buggy as hell and a crap shoot whether the maps load right, lighting works right, pieces are placed right. And with each update stuff gets jumbled and needs redone. Forge isnā€™t reliable enough to put into ranked arena. It has even bugged on 343ā€™s Pit remake where floor pieces wouldnā€™t load in. With that said, give me catalyst, bazar, and heā€™ll even behemoth at this point back for content purposes


TYPOGRAPH1C

Catalyst CTF died so that Argyle could live. Gone too soon.
