    I got a chance to play this map in the Social Team DLC. Im assuming it was the other map that made it in ATLAS. I have to say, it was one of the most boring games i think ive ever played. the map itself wasnt horrible to look at... although it was uninterlocked, and everything was just layed down like it is on default Foundry. This leaves me with the clear impression that Bungie is only currently looking for basic maps.

    Anyways, it was just a basic U shape with some stuff filling in the other side of the map. It was also a 5v5, which is too many people. The back half never got used, and it was just tug of war over the central stairs to try and get to the other side. Im really hoping to see some better stuff in the future.

    Yup, I can't see why they would only be trying to include basic maps. Even if they are basic the fun factor has to be off the chart. And if they are boring they are just steering people away from them. Both octoplex and smash are bad... That is just a bad move on Bungies part. I hope to see much better decisions in the future. As of now they are not helping themselves.

    Well i hate talking bad about Bungie because i love their game so much. But they have really bad taste in user created levels. Even if they dont like geomerging or interlocking or something they should know level design they did make some great levels. Octoplex is alright its not the greatest map but compared to Smashed its a welcomed improvement.

    Smashed was the bungie variant added. Not made by a community member, it came from the inside.

    I was anxious to play these maps, but now I don't want to.

    Played it. In the playlist.
    Ok at best.
    But, the other team quit early. All of them. Now that certainly does say something about it.

    Yeah, I'd have to say that the map is STRICTLY decent for a map. I personally don't like the map, because I've played on it twice and lost both times because my teammates were complete garbage. :irritated:

    I played CTF on it twice and it was a blast... I think that's just because I was kicking major ass. :D
