why submitted a new map: Boulderdash - Castle Wars map featuring Warthogs, Mongooses and boulders. Read more about this map...
I do not understand what people see in this game mode. I've had to help play-test a few of this type of map and in my experience it is just 12 minutes of people rushing across a bridge with swords, and the occasional mongoose or gimmick. No gunplay, no interesting movement, no complexity. It's mindless but not mindless fun like fiesta. I can't fathom why there is still enough attraction for people to be making new maps for it.
I think a lot of people are "discovering" Castle Wars for the first time thanks to the custom game browser and the occasional inclusion in matchmaking. I'm assuming these people are making maps for it since it can be a super easy gametype to build a functioning map for.
To each his own I guess; I've always enjoyed these kinds of modes since their conception. I think one of the main draws to this gametype is it's simplicity. Honestly the movement in Halo 5 has made the gameplay for these kinds of modes more fun in my opinion. Gunplay would turn this into a large Ro Sham Bo match .
How many kids do you see playing poo pushing on the customs browser my man? X) Actually, still, whats your point? XD
