I remember when I started Destiny back when it came out and clash and control had a nice map rotation. Not a lot of maps back then, but there was a nice mix of small, medium, and a course big large maps. Now a days the only decently sized map is Shores of Time and a dreadnaught map, but those aren't like the big wide open ones that once existed. I know they exist and it be nice to have that kind of rotation again. Maps where you can have close quarters combat and then a nice large open map made for those times you like to just snipe people. I know the shotguns would hate this idea, but I like to bring variety back to the crucible as well as the fun. Who's with me and what big map do you miss playing on?

I'm happy to see so may people miss them like I do. Let's keep the chatting going and see if Bungie will take notice. (Chances are slim tho lol) but what big map was everyone's favorite if you remember that far back lol
-
well im missing 2 grimore cards from crucible one is combined arms the other is the map skyshock i would like to get them...
-
Boy, if you thought the sniper whining was bad now!
-
It needs to be at least 9v9. Then we can talk.

Totally agree I'm sick of these shit small maps. The only people who love them are people that played nuketown over and over again with spawning and dying constantly. Those map are still in the classic 6v6 but they should be brought back to most playlists. I'm a shit sniper and would mostly use shotgun but FIRST LIGHT AND BASTION are set out properly for all game modes and they are the most beautiful by a long shot. It would be nice to try and be bit more stealthier in games and try to go a decent streak. I do like small maps as I just went flawless on exodus blue 2 Saturday's ago and I'm a day one player I just think it would balance the rotation and the games to have them maps in regular playlists.

Yea especially bastion that big red sand dessert stage was beautiful and interesting looking. I enjoyed trying to race up the top of the big staircase on my sparrow without being killed. I think all the outside mars stages involving the vex are the best maps

I miss them but all the PvP babies cry about the big maps. Even the little sniper bitches don't like maps without easy lanes and doorways to sit and scope.

Seriously. Bring big team to destiny

Edited by Brockie: 7/30/2016 9:39:15 AMThe issue isn't that shotgunners would hate it. It's that every fanboy has a sniper rifle. The undeserved glamour and mystique of these weapons means every twelve year old secretly fancies themselves some kind of elite sniper. They jump at every opportunity to 'prove' this (generally by losing control games). So big, open maps can't exist. Everyone will just spam snipers and wreck the pace of the game. Which is a shame because the movement, radar, vehicles and weapons all seem designed with large maps in mind. If snipers were a heavy on the other hand...

Edited by zeroknight101: 7/29/2016 10:40:43 PMNow a days sniping really isn't a big deal and those large maps often had vehicles on them so snipers camping wouldn't really matter all that much. Most teams lose when they have nothing but campers. And yes a few can snipe them out of the seat, but most snipers get taken out by people who have the vehicles or someone just using a sparrow to get close enough to use a primary weapon. So the whole worry thing about them is pointless. Anyway the big maps that use to be in the list were well balanced and still wouldn't make or break the current meta. If anything people don't have the patience to enjoy drawn out fights.

Classic 6v6 still has the maps on the rotation
-
Big maps weren't wanted back then and they sure as shit aren't wanted now.

Big maps are not wanted. With the current game types we have in Destiny they dont fit in with big maps, the game play goes far to slow. Remember Bastion, first light and there was another one which they would use for Combined arms games... well they were on the control rotation for a while but its was completely shit house. You die and respawn 45minutes away on the other side of the map, you then get your sparrow out and zoom across the map telling everyone where you are and where you are heading. Then we have the problem with games not being 6 v 6. I can remember a 4 v 4 game of control on these maps and because its such a big map and your looking for 4 other players the game always finished form the time running out. id even say that 6 v 6 on these maps is still not enough player.
-
the 6 v 6 classic playlist has them As for the gameplay on those maps....camping sniper gameplay is the predominant style so if you are okay with that 6v6 classic is the way to go
-
Yeahhhhhhh, no.
-
I would be so happy if they bring them back screw shotgunners they must get good stop hip firing like kids and get some accuracy.
-
Yes! I am tired of playing the classic playlist for hours only to never find first light. I want combined arms back
-
Great, I had to deal with 6 people hardscoping, now we need more campers.. Great. #MakepvpGreatagain.
-
Don't care about maps! I'll still use a double shotgun
-
YESSSS BRING BACK COMBINED ARMS
-
Yea can you still play on those maps I love them
