I definitely missed that. I kind of took it as him saying it doesn't matter what's fun as long as it's pretty. I know that's not how he truly feels but I felt it was a gross "mis-statement."
My thoughts exactly. Clean, even maps with great gameplay and a respectable amount of detail. It's what got me to fall in love with maps like yours. (Please come back)
My suggestions were honest, I just forgot the names of two of them. Castle-looking map by Erupt looks nice from the outside. Japan map by Salty Illadris by Demption
I personally like spellbound, seclusion, and full metal. Theres more I can't think of off top of my head
He was heading in the direction of mentioning the Forge community but the conversation took a turn and never came back.
+1 for Full Metal. It fees like a clasic Halo 3 map High Guard is better looking than Seclusion in my opinion, but its lighting is similar to Full Metal so i might give a different map from Given the edge. Port 66 has great aesthetics but Salty's newer 2v2 map is gorgeous and would be my pick Multi's Oblivion is one of the most thematically immersive maps but lighting isnt quite there yet. Id still pick it because itll be sick when its done Pueblo by Martian is one of the few maps of its style and i think it looks great
