    With Halo 5 making everything look so schmexy, I was curious if anyone had any old school favorite community maps that they would like to see remade/re-imagined in Halo 5.

    Here are a few fav's I used to play on the regular.

    Probably one of my most played maps, outside playing my own, is Skeleton by NeCRoMaTIiC.
    Though not a flawless map by any means this map was a blast to run around and offered alot in regards to engagement variations.

    There are no longer any download locations for this map but I could upload it to my fileshare if anyone is interested in checking it out.

    Jackal Creek - @A 3 Legged Goat

    Again there is no active download link for this but if Goat won't host, ask me and I can upload a copy to my fileshare without Goats permission :)

    Dominion V2 - Shurshacker

    I'm not sure if this download link is the correct one as it's just labeled "Dominion" but as there is no V2 in the fileshare I will assume that this has just been updated.

    Download GT: Shacker

    Sequence - @iTs_NeXn

    Download - GT: ITS NEXN

    Out of curiosity are you referring to the remake of the UT map?

    Unless there is an updated (not broken) list of these old FHF maps already, I would like to start a pinned thread with some links to the original content if I can find it. Is that possible, and where might I post it that it could get a bit more visibility by current users?

    Even if we have moved on, I still can't help but feel saddened by the loss of these old maps and I would like to have as many as I can, kept in the loop for as long as possible.

    I've already started a basic touch up but unless it gets pinned there is little point in me posting..

    I can't make any promises since I'm stepping down from my staff position, but to me it might make sense to add a section to this stickied thread for Featured Maps and FHF/Community Favorite winners. Actually, if you start a thread before the end of the weekend, I'll add it to that sticky and then you can continue to update it as time permits you.

    The maps themselves should be relatively simple to locate by searching the map names or usernames, either on the site, or via Google. I have yet to encounter an old map that I haven't been able to track down. It's just time consuming. I wouldn't mind helping get links to some of them. I could do 1 or 2 letters probably (plus links to my own maps on the list) if you want some help.

    Career 45 actually remade a bunch of Nexn's maps including Arca. I thought he did a great job with it as well. He has plans on remaking Sequence next. I'm really looking forward to it:)

    I've already got half of A done. If you want to pick a couple letters and just let me know ahead of time so you don't waste your effort that would be great.

    That's awesome. The point of this thread would was to inspire people by returning to past maps and revisiting what we loved about them.

    I may have to give Anent a download after watching the Video for it when building the updated Reach FHF page. We still play Reach matches on the Xbone in my neck of the woods. :cool:

    The other day, i did hop on H5 and wanted to remake Anent with a Destiny type of architecture. Who knows if i will ever get around to doing more of it. It wont play like in Reach I bet.

    That sounds like a great idea. I can't imagine halo 5's movement would negatively affect the map. I don't know that there are many places you can't get up on in your original map that you would have trouble with in Halo 5. I usually base the remake scaling on the easiest spot to break the pathways I originally set out, and determine if I can block it without adjusting my scale too much.

    Anyway I would love a remake of this. Let me know if you end up making it.
