What makes this version even more enjoyable is the rock solid framerate throughout the matches. Initially these alterations may come off as subtle, but they open up the map quite a bit as players tend to not camp the sword area to the same degree as Halo 3. General aesthetics are tweaked along with the layout of the sword room which now has an air lift and drop down latch. Pitfall returns mostly unchanged from Halo 3. This might be perceived as ‘skimming off the top’ a bit, but by including Pitfall, I think 343i avoids any inherent backlash. The Bullseye Map Pack includes only 2 maps - Vertigo and Pitfall - which goes against 343i’s convention of releasing 3 maps per DLC pack. All of the new content is a welcome addition, but the inclusion of The Pit Pitfall and the game mode Ricochet are easily the two best additions since Halo 4’s launch. Best of all, you can choose to get all the content together for less or buy just the packs you want individually.
Champions brings along with it a bevy of new armor and weapon skins to outfit your Spartan, two maps, and a new gametype. What a nice surprise then to see the Champions Bundle DLC announced at this year’s RTX, immediately dispelling that notion. With the release of the Castle Map Pack marking the conclusion of DLC for War Games Map Pass owners, it appeared 343i was moving past Halo 4 and setting their sights towards the next-gen consoles.
