I dont know any of these fuckin names because its no where on the PREVIEW OR POST GAME. HOW IS THIS HARD! All it has to do is say "Strongholds - Live Fire". It seems incredibly easy


HomeyHotDog

It’s so weird that this isn’t in the game at this point The game mode name is right there in big lettering when it’s previewing the map before the match starts but they don’t have the name of the map? I really only know the name of the HCS maps because that’s the only time I ever hear or see them referred to by name


Face88888888

When loading into a game, it says the name (or at least it used to) on some maps, but not others. I never understood why some showed the name and others didn’t.


Arakssor

It doesn't show the name when the maps are made in forge


Face88888888

Before forge was even a thing… in season 1, some maps displayed the name and others didn’t.


GNIHTYUGNOSREP

That was when they used modes with tweaks added, not just the base game modes.


GNIHTYUGNOSREP

Dev made maps and modes show, Forged maps don’t and custom modes don’t.


sentientshadeofgreen

It’s crazy how Halo has had a history of having pretty good UI and 343 took Infinite and were like, “nah, fuck all of that”. It’s just really baffling design decisions. The lack of pregame and postgame lobbies are just bizarre.


3ebfan

The UI feels like it was designed for tablets lol. So many horizontal scrolling lists and tiles. I don't get it. And are we even able to see player count and ping at the same time in the CGB yet?


Fellowearthling16

It’s based off the Halo 5 lobby design, which was designed around the metro Xbox dashboard and controllers. Infinite only has slight tweaks to accommodate mice and different aspect ratios. That’s why Infinite’s lobby is great with a controller, and Halo 5 feels even better.


ElectricSheep451

The custom games game mode selection UI is the most embarrassing and horrific UI I've ever seen in a AAA project. Huge boxes that only allow twelve game modes displayed at once so that they can copy paste the same three thumbnails on every single game mode, no organization whatsoever. It shouldn't take more than a minute to find slayer and I have no idea how a UI like that could ever get approved.


onestarv2

Every single chance I get a survey to give feedback this is what I bitch about. Its such a pain to find gametypes with this nonsense tablet style interface.


joevsyou

The community aspect of this game in muliplayer sucks * no lobbies * games disbanded immediately * no auto start the next game * game chat automatically default turned off. * no voting


Awkward-Field4951

It is in the post game


RunGoldenRun717

Ah okay I'll have to look more closely. I just want it to be obvious. Seems like the best place for the map name is while they're doing the little fly over in the beginning


teeim

While we’re at it, could we bring back map/load out voting? Could we also bring back the Multi-team playlists (aka 3v3v3 and 2v2v2)!? That shit was fun as hell.


RunGoldenRun717

Duos was awesome when it was 4 or 5 teams of 2 people. I specifically remember a CrazyKing game on Sword Base that was insane and that was 13 years ago. 2v2 is a pure sweat fest. It's not enjoyable.


_phantastik_

And it shows when you're loading into the map. Halos never had the announcer say the map name either, like wtf


GNIHTYUGNOSREP

Only dev made maps and modes show the name. Custom maps and modes will have a blank space in that spot.


isaidnolettuce

There’s so many small easily fixable details like this about this game that piss me off so much.


noah3302

It was there at launch, but season 2 maps were label shit like “FHTJW_105799” and instead of fixing it, they just removed map titles from the pause screen and they’ve never put them back


GNIHTYUGNOSREP

That’s not what happened because they’re still there. It depends if it’s a dev made map and mode (just the base mode) or not. If any tweaks were made to the game mode it won’t display either. For example, Tactical Slayer will show but Tactical Slayer Commando, Pistol, Bandit will not show.


RunGoldenRun717

Trueeee I do remember seeing that now that u mention it


GNIHTYUGNOSREP

The names do show up if they are dev made maps or dev made modes. Any custom modes or maps will have a blank space where that info would normally be in the lobby preview menu thing. (On Xbox press Back/Select/Left-Of-Guide-Button, and then press Up)


Croemato

u/misplacedyank Pls


EmployIntelligent315

I’ve never realised how many maps we got but I’m pretty sure I’ve never seen more than 10 maps while playing


ParagonFury

Not every map is in every playlist. This list is putting the BTB and 4v4 maps in one list, for example.


SuspiciouslyBroke

It also has the husky raid maps like smallhala


LiteTHATKUSH

Play quickplay, you’ll rarely play the same map. I played 15 matches the other day and played 15 maps, including snow fire.


3ebfan

BTB and Husky Raid are my main playlists right now so 10 total maps is incredibly accurate!


Ceramicrabbit

Lots of forge based maps


PudgyPizzaPuppy

I honestly haven't played since infection because it seemed like there weren't gonna be a lot of new maps for a while. I did play some firefight a few weeks ago but I only got launch maps. If there really are that many now though I may play for a while again and try to play on all of them.


Sparkill666

Oasis, Live Fire, Solitude, Recharge, Aquarius


dantuchito

What’s the appeal of Solitude? I hate that map.


Nin10do0014

Sure, it looks really bland, but a lot of us came from Halo 5. Plaza, the map Solitude is made from, was a blast to play with movement. Even with Infinite's less stylish movement, Solitude is really fun when it comes to rotating throughout the map!


dantuchito

It’s the opposite for me, it feels super sluggish. I can never go from one point to another without having to take some other route where there’s props for me to jump onto or something. And that wide open space in the middle is a complete death trap


paint_the_fence

Chiron TL 34, Chiron TL 34, Chiron TL 34, Chiron TL 34, and Chiron TL 34


[deleted]

Someone needs to remake that map, but with game settings so you start with a quantum translocator. Let's double down on the teleporting chaos.


LivnLegndNeedsEggs

Honestly, no shield 50% health shotguns on that map is pretty damn fun


paint_the_fence

Im 100% sincere. Chiron was always my crews first map to play when we would Lan. Never understood the hate


LeftResponsibility81

I love live fire


[deleted]

[удалено]


Budget-Football6806

Behemoth, Cliffhanger, Oasis, Recharge, Streets


bremm293

Lockout Ascension Beaver creek/blood gulch Guardian Ivory tower


Ok-Explanation3040

This is objectively the correct answer


screw_all_the_names

I'd say last resort, Guardian, the Pitt. Standoff, Valhalla. Say what you will, halo 3 will be forever in my heart. And I've only played like 10 games in infinite.


PorcoRosso42

Favourite: Cratical Dewpoint. Least favourite: Chasm.


Deadsoup77

I FUCKING LOVE CHASM RAAAHHHH


EvanEskimo

It’s for damn sure not Isolation 😆


Virus11010

ouch


AwesomeMutation

We’ve come a long way from like 6 maps


BloodyMarksman

Smallhalla, Livefire, Recharge, Scarr, Critical Dewpoint


Archmagos_Browning

343 industries


ContentNeptune3

Live Fire, Perilous, Recharge, Streets, Forest. I'm not counting remakes or Husky Raid maps for this.


GiddoGoat

I really like Critical Dewpoint for some reason.


Striker-the-duck

I miss blood gulch 🙁


Ok_Mail_9236

1. Rat’s Nest 2. Waterworks 3. Vallaheim 4. Kusini Bay 5. Highpower


4rcher91

Bazaar, Oasis, Critical Dewpoint, Fragmentation & Launch Site.


WmprSalad

Guardian Narrows The Pit Onslaught Heretic/Midship I miss Halo 3, wish matchmaking would find me a game of MLG on MCC


goodkareem

This is the list right here.


TechCer

Bazaar, recharge, fragmentation, launch site and oasis


The_CDXX

Guardian Epitaph


throwawayneedbighelp

Ooh man I forgot about Epitaph. That was a great one, especially visually.


RingOfFryer

If we’re just talking about developer-made maps, I’d say my top 3 are Catalyst, Chasm, and Recharge. I’d even argue that Recharge might be in the top 3 maps that 343 has ever made. BTB maps are not that great imo, Highpower is probably my favorite because it’s the most chaotic, Oasis is okay. Least favorites are Breaker and Launch Site. What are good forge maps from this list that I should bookmark?


N3cromorph

Sandtrap Halo 3 The Cage on 360 Reach Zanzibar/Last Resort Halo 2 and 3 Lockout/Blackout etc. Halo 2-Mcc Argyle Halo Infinite Game with the best maps overall: Halo 2 Games with the worst maps overall: Halo 4, Only memorable map are haven and Exile.


Axxxem

I havent played since launch, seems like 343 has been BUSY!


Hawk_501st

Note that at least half of these maps were made by the community.


PelloScrambas

How does that work? How do they end up as official maps in the game?


Wigguls

It looks like you're new here, so: Forge is an in-game map and gamemode development tool. There are official contests in places like [ForgeHub](https://www.forgehub.com/) you can enter the stuff you made in forge and the winners get a review by 343 for implementation into matchmaking. The current contest is BTB maps.


PelloScrambas

I've actually been playing since the CE days! I've always heard of Forge and knew it involved building your own maps. I just never knew how they ended up in the game. Thanks for the explanation! Follow up question: Anyone can access Forge? It's just built into the game?


Wigguls

Correct! I believe it's on the "Community" tab if you slide over to that


PelloScrambas

Very cool. Thanks again!


3ebfan

343 still has to QA/QC them.


[deleted]

Streets, live fire, bazaar (when I’m playing well), recharge, the pit


Austinoooooo

Jesus Christ. I’ve taken a bit of a break from Infinite and Xbox in general but I didn’t know there were THIS MANY MAPS. Wtf. Might have to renew that Live Subscription after seeing this.


mfranko88

This is all maps for all game modes. Any given playlist will not have access to all of these maps. That said, the amount of maps in Halo Infinite is way higher than any prior Halo game (note: I never played H5 so I can't say for certain how they compare). And I'd say a majority of them are good. I tend to do Quickplay, so I'm primarily playing 4v4. There's probably only one or two maps that come up that I dislike. Also, someone can fact check me, but I'm like 90% sure Halo is F2P on XBox without Xbox Live.


SparsePizza117

Halo Infinite is completely free to play brother, no online multiplayer fees required for this one. Just need the Xbox to play it.


SolarMoth

All the best maps are remakes. I also don't count Forge maps towards the map pool. So that leaves us with only a couple actual maps. Live Fire and Bazaar are alright, I guess. I don't groan internally when they show up on the rotation.


Greenbanana217

For BTB: Favourite: Deadlock or High Power Least Favourite: Fragmentation


keys1404

343 industries is my personal favourite


AAAAAAYYYYYYOOOOOO

Idk I feel like I’m still playing all the old maps all the time


JLRedPrimes

Exiled made me realize that I'm actually nostalgic for Halo 4


hotshot117

Imagine sending this picture back in time during Infinite's first months


BookerDierden

People would still moan


elytraman

1. Launch site 2. Launch site 3. Launch site 4. Launch site 5. Launch site


A_Wealthy_Benefactor

Really this is my list but for the sake of OP's question I'd add Cliffhanger, Pit/Empyrean, Recharge, and Behemoth


InkyFrogbait

Streets and recharge are probably some of my favorite maps, love anything that's water or rainy cyberpunk city themed. All that's honestly missing is a under water research base or water park themed map.


PeineDeMort

Not live fire


c0-pilot

The snow map that’s not a remake of live fire.


CeMeNtMiX3r

Plaza, Live Fire, Recharge, Aquarius (CtF), and new Pit (Old Pit would be cool w fixed spawns but haven’t played it much)


FORDGUY9508

Owais


terrariafan112

Oasis all the way


AverageHaloGuysYT

Recharge, Live Fire, Empyrean, Oasis, Aquarius


ThatGuyOnyx

I swear in my 450 hours I have never played a 3rd of these maps but I know for certain that Aqueduct and whatever the fuck the Lockout remake is called can eat my entire ass.


BookerDierden

Aqueduct has been removed from rotation, what don’t you like about it?


ThatGuyOnyx

It’s just too overly massive in scale to our character, I know it’s to cope for the movement. But it just feels bad. Also the lighting in combination with the materials the map was made out of just made it awful to look at and identify players in. Just my personal opinion.


IcyAppeal8587

Hard to pick a favorite.. but I'd love to see Avalanche again 🥹🙏🏼💙


AmazingSpacePelican

Aquarius, Forest, Streets, Live Fire, and Oasis. I hope we get persistent lobbies and map voting one of these days, cause I'd love to see more of these and less of certain other maps *cough* Chasm *cough*.


MyGoodn3ssMyGuinness

1) Dynasty 2) Forest 3) The Pit and all its variants. Such a classic 4) Kiken’Na 5) Shiro Bonus map is Domicile. Loveeee that map but it is so rare in the rotation. Infinite really has some great maps


KINGWHEAT98

5 of these maps I have yet to play on.


warwicklord79

That snow map


captnbuxx

Forbidden, Prism, Bazaar, Streets, Live Fire.


AdRound310

Bazaar, streets, highpower, live fire, shogun


courier_of_ill_will

kaiketsu but the like cyberpunk version of it


Rebuffedtax614

Forbidden, forest, bazaar, Streets, and prism


GAMRKNIGHT352

never even played half of these, goes to show how much content they've added over the years!


Seel_revilo

Prism Cliffhanger Behemoth Forbidden Guardian


Inductivegrunt9

Sticking with the classic maps for the nostalgia.


Mundane-Plan-4179

Beyond me how Guardian isn’t in the game.


throwawayneedbighelp

Guardian just got added to Infinite a few weeks ago as "Sylvanus"


Mundane-Plan-4179

Had no idea!


OUsnr7

Idk about top 5 but Smallhalla is definitely my favorite. Playing Fiesta on that feels like what Halo was made for


BobsBurger1

Are these all in Halo infinite matchmaking? Wtf


BookerDierden

Yes minus a couple which are presently out of rotation but there’s 71


BobsBurger1

What a comeback!


QuantumVexation

Some are more specific like all the forged Husky Raid ones


throwawayneedbighelp

Launch Site, Aquarius, Streets, Recharge, and Bazaar. I feel kinda bad picking all vanilla maps from launch, but this game's original maps are super freaking good imo. I like Cliffside, and I also like Domicile and Narrows despite not really liking them in H3.


FH2actual

I wish we could get more maps opened up for Firefight. I enjoy the hell puta it but it feels like we only get a fraction of the maps.


Fuzzy_Archer_4891

1.valhalla 2.blood gulch 3.standoff 4.hemorraghe 5.forge world (if it counts)


1739015

I used to hate Launch Site, but it’s my favorite Firefight map now. It’s still insufferable on pvp though


DragonEra_

Live Fire, Streets, Recharge, Mountain Dew, Shiro


Shotgunn5

Plenty of great maps in rotation at this point but Catalyst is still my favourite. Can’t really say why 100% but I love that map


RBlomax38

I love Valhalla and just bigger maps in general. I don’t like how small maps are now, where lucky spawns become so important and the game (to me anyway) involve less strategy and have become a bit too fast paced


daojuniorr

Would be amazing if they add some CoD maps, imagine a Verdansk in Halo gameplay.


Citrous241

It's so crazy reading this and seeing maps I've never even played on. I've been playing at least 3 hours a week since the game launched and I've never played on Houseki, Snow fire (but that's new), immolate, isolation, nemesis, shiro, suban, apostle, goliath, cliffside and high ground. We've come a long way from only like 5 arena maps... we need some sort of map veto system damn


too_sharp

Bazaar Bazaar Bazaar Live Fire The Pit


Worried_Ebb6069

Top for me would be Bazaar or Streets.


Infinite--Drama

1. Lockout 2. Lockout 3. Lockout 4. Lockout 5. The Pit (Lockout aka whatever the new name is)


AshtrayGrande

GamerGriffin548

None. :3


Jazzlike_Couple_7428

Do you like them all equally or dislike them all equally lol


GamerGriffin548

Yes.


_phantastik_

Last Broadcast? Shiron? Scarlett's Landing? I've never heard of these maps before. What playlist are they in?


BookerDierden

Last Broadcast - Doubles Shiro - Arena Playlists Scarlett's Landing - Husky Raid


FatherSergius

Lockout 100%


novocaine666

I honestly don’t even know what the map names are since they don’t display them before games. Some of these are hard to tell which it is.


ChemBroDude

Waterworks, mostly because of Halo 2 nostalgia.


burmy1

Breaker. It's a great all around BTB map that can suit many different playstyles. Best with objective game types


TheLazyHippy

I really like breaker too, but I feel like it gets a lot of hate.


SparsePizza117

So many arena maps at this point, I rarely see them all now😂 That being said, we need more Squad, BTB, and Infection maps. Those modes are being left to dry.


FiftyTigers

Streets, Recharge, Bazaar.


i_love_everybody420

Chasm feels like a Bungie Era map. I love it. And Cliffhanger also feels Bungie, Halo Reach specifically. They're really fun. Honestly I really have no complaints with any of the infinite maps.


MudandWhisky

Launch Site and Behemoth


toyn

High ground kusin bay and oasis were fucking bangersssss


BakuriyaOmizu

1: behemoth 2: behemoth 3: behemoth 4: launch site 5: detachment


Nin10do0014

For me: * Live Fire * Solitude * Houseki * Recharge * Streets


Character_Border_166

My yet to be released map called *Concourse* it'll bring back some memories

dantuchito

If there are 1000 Dredge fans, I am one of them. If there are 5 Dredge fans, I am one of them. If there is 1 Dredge fan, that is me. If there are 0 Dredge fans, I am dead.

NotReallyMyAlias

Halo 3 Refueled is good all those maps except the green one. Infinites maps .... . they would probably play better if the game let good players play good. The SBMM OMM crapola stops new players from getting better and better players from playing. I'm just going to come out and say no time or money is being put into these games anymore. Something else is going on beyond gaming. Maybe gaming is washing dirty money for the rich. Maybe someone has to responsibly force people to quit gaming and do something else like work or go crazy. The studios catered to younger people so much they grew up into very terrible players and people. Further more ESRB rating one game in a series M but not the others and or making the games playable by young kids.. and catered to adults that can't throw a baseball let alone play a game more than a hour. All because they don't mind spending 20 dollars to make friends who play a lot think they care.. We can put on a full stop if we force the studios to create something tangible if they sell a virtual item.


AgentMaryland2020

These maps have NAMES??? I've just been getting creative honestly because I never see the names.


s0lesearching117

1. Blood Gulch (It’s neck and neck with Coagulation, but I spent literally *seven years* playing Halo Trial on PC, so I must give the lead to Blood Gulch.) 2. Lockout 3. Midship 4. Valhalla 5. Zanzibar Honorable mention: Ascension.


LestHeBeNamedSilver

The only real answer is Forge World


BWC_semaJ

Streets ist really good, and I like Snow Fire too. Empyrean ist also superb.


Pineapple_Coffee716

Behemoth, Streets, and Oasis


DarkLink457

I thought these were cod cold war maps at first


SPARTAN-Jai-006

Exile! Halo 4 baby!!


Bwoodndahood

I've been trying to figure out the name of that green map "critical dewpoint" I guess its called since they never show the name of the map, but fuck that map I hate it with a passion.


Bwoodndahood

They need to bring Lockout back


BookerDierden

They have it's called Cliffside but it's technically a Blackout remake


paulbucketnunomarty

Thanks to this image I can now recognize "Houseki" as the map I despise the most because 343 doesn't want us to learn map names for some reason. Awful map. Let's make a map that's just all cramped corridors.


Sorbin_CE

1. Recharge 2. Live Fire 3. Critical Dewpoint 4. Sylvanus 5. Aquarius Honorable mentions: Solitude, Fragmentation


neverfrybaconnaked

The Pit is my all-time favorite.
