ABR Halo Master Posted August 20, 2013 Im comparing it to other good 2s maps we already use. It didn't really work well in halo 3. I didn't play dubs in 3 so I wouldn't know. The only other good 2v2 maps are rail and skyline. 1 3 Quote Share this post Link to post
Doju Posted August 20, 2013 The only other good 2v2 maps are rail and skyline. Nah. Skyline needs adjustments in its weapon layout to deemphasis top mid. Titan, Scythe, Koffing, Rubble, Aegis, and modified versions of Adrift/Abandon/Landfall are all better. Rail is good though but would like to see a V2 of it. Quote Share this post Link to post

I was talking about the matchmaking playlist because I have no clue what Titan, Koffing, Rubble, and Aegis are. Scythe is alright I guess. Quote Share this post Link to post

I think they forgot how to update that playlist. I tried getting in touch with Tashi after he shown initial interest but heard nothing since. All the maps above have mostly went down well in tourney play. Quote Share this post Link to post
logan Posted August 20, 2013 So banana is just gone? Also I think it's a good thing you need to spring to the yellow wall. Players can't even spring jump up to the banana. Not even from the ledge cover beside it. Only way up to it is by jetpack and that's probably not happening on the competitive version. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post

Only way up to it is by jetpack and that's probably not happening on the competitive version. I have tried it with spring jumps, thruster spring jumps and such. there is no way you could get there besides grenade jumps or jetpack. Maybe ghost will put something to jump up on in the v5 settings. Quote Share this post Link to post

Maybe ghost will put something to jump up on in the v5 settings. I looked at his "v5 Pitfall TEST" that's in his fileshare(Gh057ayame) and he didn't add any jump ups to the banana. He did add a wall to the insides of each runway though. That way players can stand on that ledge beneath the sword ramp. Quote Share this post Link to post

Are you sure there isn't anything else Ghost added? Quote Share this post Link to post
Aphex Twin Posted August 20, 2013 I didn't play dubs in 3 so I wouldn't know. It didn't work all that well for 4s too. Quote Share this post Link to post

Sam Posted August 20, 2013 Omg hahahaha It's honestly horrible to play on with Sprint. Can't wait to play v5 CTF Pit where the time limit is reached and the score will be 1-0. Quote Share this post Link to post
vavavoom Posted August 20, 2013 I'll find a slide ramp to get to banana would be cool. maybe you can play around with the sand laying around. there are some spots where you can sprint against the wall and get much more air thanks to a little sand bank Quote Share this post Link to post

logan Posted August 20, 2013 Is that all he did to modify Pitfall? Are you sure there isn't anything else Ghost added? He changed weapon placement(snipers s1, rockets green, scattershot top sword, light rifle at the end of each long hall, dmr at each top flag door, and battle rifles at the end of each runway). He also deleted the jump ups from the pit area to the platforms since players can now use the sand to jump up to the platforms. He also centered the jump ups in each flag. That's basically all I noticed that was different than the normal "pitfall." No special walls or anything, besides the ones in runway. 3 Quote Share this post Link to post

There used to be like 5 different ways of getting to attic without a grenade. Quote Share this post Link to post

Yep kinda dissapointed. i was also dissapointed that you cannot make the jump from below sword to sword ramp if you now what i mean. Just missed by an inch if you spring jump. i could only find these jumps so far Quote Share this post Link to post

I can play in like a few hours I just wanna get on the map already! Also I just thought of the sweetest jump but I wanna test it first. I also don't wanna give it away til I land it.

I walked around the map for about 30 mins just looking for jumps, could not find any more interesting jumps besides the one in the video. there are a couple jumps where you use the sand but in this map version they placed the boxes on the same place so not really worth it putting it in my video. good luck on the jumps! (i also wanted to look on vertigo but that map is way to big to just check alone) Quote Share this post Link to post

(i also wanted to look on vertigo but that map is way to big to just check alone) Thanks. I completely agree I already know the pit and it's a nice and simple map so it's easier to find jumps. I don't even know where to look on vertigo at all. I'm literally just gonna go into custom games on the pit for hours. Quote Share this post Link to post
xx tricky Posted August 20, 2013 question since I havn't been able to play today yet... what gametypes has Pitfall been put in to?? Slayer, Throwdown, new game type? Quote Share this post Link to post
