(This may be updated after 343 review and continuous work over weekend)

Disclaimer: This post is for a separate version(MM Viking) that will stay in my files so that the original remake is still true to Valhalla. This is a list of the main changes to the map for the MM Viking. Ive been working on it since a month ago so i may miss a lot of little things that arent important. All of these changes are directly relevant to community feedback and requests but still maintain a level of logical sense to avoid outlandish gameplay. The focus was to make Valhalla a welcomed addition to the halo 5's sandbox and to cure it of the obvious concerns large open BTB maps currently have with BR starts. The changes also consider that magnum starts may still happen.

Also, ALL changes were extremely well considered from all angles of the spectrum. I did the best i possibly could to make this map great again. No changes were made carelessly.

Structural changes and additions:

• The entire map has been reworked although it may not seem so. All rocks/cover have been exaggerated. Cover is now taller/bigger across the board.
• New rock cover has been placed outside blue shotgun, in blue yard, two places in red yard and in mid yard.
• Forerunner supports now extend down from the wall at mid yard.
• Added heightened path to the backside of gulch on blue side leading to mid yard
• Vehicle pathing considered during all changes and smoothed out many problem areas for drivers. Both bases can now be ramped into with vehicles. Rebuilt the rocks in front of both bases precisely for this reason.
• New trees to support tree/spartan relationships/hugging

Weapon and powerup list: Many new options yay!

• 4 x H5BR - One right outside of each base and in the middle of each yard.
• 2 x carbine - One in mid near pelican, one in mid yard in front of new forerunner structure
• 16 x Magnum - Literally everywhere to promote use of magnums
• 2 x SMG - Each base
• 3 x plasma pistol - Top mid on simba rock and one in each base
• 2 x boltshot - One in each base
• 2 x storm rifle - Alley and gulch
• 2 x suppressor - Red and blue lookout
• 2 x Shotgun 1 spare clip, 60 sec on deletion
• 1 x Gravity hammer 100% 60 sec on deletion -replaces turret
• 2 x detached rocket turret 120 sec on deletion - replaces hydras at bases
• 1 x needler - pelican

• 2 x sniper pad - 1 extra clip 180 sec
• 1 x Fuel rod pad - 1 extra clip 120 sec
• 1 x Laser pad - 100% 120 sec

• 2x speed boosts outside each base at lookouts
• 1x Camo under simba rock

• 12 x frag
• 10 x plasma
• 8 x splinter

Vehicle changes: It may seem a little too much but i feel that with the weapon changes this will work out great and im super happy to give the community more vehicles after being constantly requested. All vehicles on death/deletion.

• 2 x Gausshog 60 sec - To improve viability of flag caps
• 2 x Wraith 180 sec
• 2 x ghosts 120 sec - Short run from the bases so spartans have a chance on foot before ghosts get too far ahead
• 2 x banshee 180 sec
• 4 x mongeese 30 sec - Now moved into each base like on Halo 3

Miscellaneous:

• Added invisible blockers for the riverbed in red yard to make a cleaner transition for vehicles after removing all glass and water gobos
• Added invisible blockers surrounding the entire map to avoid players outside normal playspaces
• Raised the soft kill barrier over the map a little to make up for the lost space over the maps edges.
• Pelican trail from crashing aesthetic
• More spawns
• Completely rebuilt bases
• Moved strongholds
• Reduced fog
• New name location for structure in mid yard 'mid platform'
• improved kill volumes everywhere
• improved terrain everywhere
• Changed start cameras and added static cameras

+ more quality of life changes i cant remember sorry!
