    We're always keeping an eye on what's going on in the passionate and creative Forge community, and lately, we've been keeping a particularly close eye on ForgeHub's 2v2 Map Contest. When the contest submission period came to a close earlier this Spring, a total of 145 maps had been entered for consideration. After months of playtesting and looking at the maps details in Forge, the organizers finally had their top ten. When we heard that they had narrowed it down to the best submissions, our curiosity got the best of us, and we reached out to take a peek at them. After extensive playtesting, and with loving feedback from our Multiplayer, Art, and Pro Teams, they were deemed ready for the open ocean we call matchmaking.

    We're pretty excited about involving the talented community yet again in the Halo 5 experience, and can't wait for you to try out these playspaces for yourself. Without further ado, here are the maps you’ll be playing this week in Community Doubles:

      Am I the only one who notices that Malta sticks out like a sore thumb compared to the rest? The forging is a bit sloppy, the colors are all over the place, the elevator is awkward and the geometry doesn't always cooperate with clamber. Not to mention it was just pulled out of nowhere by 343. Maps like Frank, Heads Up, Bloodsport, ect. would have made much more sense to fill Malta's spot.

      Can't really jump on the Optic bandwagon just yet as it hasn't appeared in rotation for me yet. Playing it with friends in customs was fun but the current doubles settings in MM are terrible for these maps (mostly referring to radar). Maps like Reign and Hazard were full of hide and seek situations which at times gave me an aneurysm...

      Let me know if you have any interest in further improving Cobalt. I'd like to talk through some of the issues I've noticed with the layout during matchmaking. None of this bullshit "make the rooms more visually distinct" crap that you've been getting pestered about. I want to discuss hard-routes, teleporter-pathing, and spawns.

      Thank you for your feedback on Malta. I will implement suggested changes regarding weapons, design and spawning. Unfortunately for many of you, it got in somehow. I do not know what the map's future will be, but I will do my best to again make improvements.

      It's all dev maps again. They removed all the forge maps. This company is a ****ing joke.

      Yes. Added ranks and removed all forge maps. Exactly why the doubles playlist failed the first time it came out.

      Of course you can't have ranked matches on forge maps bro, do you even rank!?

      So they definitely removed all the forge maps designed for 2v2 and replaced them with dev maps designed for 4v4? Just want to be damn sure.
