    Boundless, Epilogue, Pit Stop, and Sand Tarp

    A fine gentleman over at MLGpro posted that he has these maps in his fileshare (already!) for those of you who can't wait to find them in MM. If anyone comes across Sandtarp, post it here if you want and I'll update the thread.

    UPDATE:
    Sand Tarp is here, and apparently there's a new (was this in Head to Head?)map called Anvil that's in Team Doubles and Lone Wolves.

    I played a game on Boundless and I really like it. Since the shield doors are gone it has prevented camping, you can still camp but it's much harder. There is two beam rifles in the bases and the shotgun is back to it's original spot. I believe bungie has turned Snowbound into a great map.

    Sweet. That'll be the first map I want to play when I get home from work.

    All that they have done on pit stop is added a few barrels and made it so you can't spawn above the flag spawn.

    im kind of confused
    what are these maps supposed to be?
    from what i understand is that they are just variants of the original maps

    THey are the Bungie alterations of default MM maps.

    I am wondering as to how Boundless plays with 2 beam rifles.

    Boundless and Epilogue are Snowbound and Epitaph without shield doors, and weapon tweaks. The big change to Pit Stop is the spawns in the attic have been removed.

    Spammer, you need to embed photos of the maps! Just kidding =P

    Thats really cool that we get the maps early =) Can't wait to play on them and see the differences in gameplay.

    Thank you!

    I think bungie just took my least favorite maps (I love the pit either way) and made them into competitive gameplay style maps. Now I might not be as tempted to veto in matchmaking... L(^o^)7

    There was another foundry map besides Anvil in there. I saw it last night but didn't get to play on it cause people Vetoed.
    The game type was something to do with Hammers.

    EDIT, Lol the guy mentioned in the first post made an Anvil canvas. Would that not be just a standard foundry canvas?

    shouldn't this go in the halo 3 discussion not the maps section? This more seems like a discussion about 3 maps that bungie has remade not 3 maps that you have made. Just saying that I think this should go into a different section that what it is.

    Um I think Anvil was one of those maps from long ago that Bungie decided was decent enough to make the Bungie Favourites. From what I remember (if it's the same one) it wasn't super nice, it was just a diamond in the rough when the flood of Foundry maps came pouring out with the release of the Heroic Map Pack. I haven't played this version yet so I can't say for certain whether it's the same or not.

    Well, just saw anvil... wow.
    There is a turret placed where over half the map is open to its stationary fire.... and I was expecting something interlocked.

    I am in love with Boundless, love the changes there.

    Epilouge, meh. Rocket below platform, with a bruteshot ontop of the platform? And then all 4 BR's are paired together on either side, within jumping distance for ammo? Iffy on how Epilogue will play...

    Also, Pit Stop, bleh. Glad you can't spawn up on the 2nd floor anymore, but should they have blocked it off from the people who actually tried to get up there using skill? Makes me sad...

    And yes, I know this is a poor post, I could write much better, but I won't. I know I shouldn't complain, but I can criticize, and I won't deny my disappointment so far.

    I just played boundless, and pit stop. I can say pit stop feels exactly the same, not a real difference. but boundless is awesome. It feels akward, not being able to hide behind a shield door to recharge and reload, but it adds a sense of horror. I can finally say, snowbound? My favorite! Thanks for finding them.
