Howdy folks, Luv Gunn here with some great news!
Recently the Wheelmen sucessfully playtested some of the best Invasion maps known to Halo with the Community Cartographers in preparation for the June Update.
Now, what maps were submitted for Matchmaking aren't publically known and no one will know what maps will make it THROUGH 343's playtests until the actual update happens. So a lot of things are still up in the air and nothing else can really be said about it.
That said, here are some links to the maps we played from the B.net group Blueprint. I believe you have to be a member to see the threads but if you aren't already its a good idea to join. THFE has some videos on some of the maps on their YouTube channel if you feel like giving them a view and a lot of the maps are posted here on the site as well. Now, without further ado, and in no particular order are The Maps:
Overgrowth - [Yardbird92 and Ablesir Thomas]
Refinery - [Stubborn Clam]
Bravo Site - [Mr Saddo]
War - [Rizon]
Floodgate - [Oakley HiDef and Kanggo Sucka]
Broadcast - [HWM RJ]
Meteora - [Psycho duck and FlyingShoe ILR]
Ordinance - [FrankenPanda]
Some played better than others and the 3 maps that the wheelmen have been playtesting for months really showed their polish with the exception of an errant Kill Zone that I had added earlier that day in an effort to make things perfect but somehow mislabeled. I blame Ducke...
When we know more about the coming update to Invasion we'll be sure to try our best to keep it to ourselves or drop the smallest hints in an unbearably douchey way but until then feel free to speculate and name call.
k thnx bai!
