An Original Studios Production Elevation This is Benzu13. Some of you may know me, most of you not. I'm getting the feeling a few people are starting to get beefy with me... Either way, do not let the author of this map fool you, it is indefinately a work of art. Elevation supports all gametypes. I would recommend FFA games, but I myself have not tested all of the options, and honestly, many of you don't really care about my opinion. Elevation is a ... different... map. From the screenshots in a while, you shall see soon. It's actually motivated from the interweaving thoughts in my head, kinda wierd. Spoiler The Story of my life: One day, a long long time ago, my brother was playing Call of Duty: World at War. He was in a plane firing down on ships. He got hit by a bullet, and instantaneously our XBOX started messing up. That's CoD for you. After a day or two our XBOX completely broke down. It was a month and a half before we got a new one. But when I finally got back on it... I NO LONGER HAD MYTHIC... ... I quit Halo. For about another month I was doing other games, primarily playing through all of the Kingdom Hearts series, again. Ahh, good times. One day, I logged in under my brother's account. For some reason, HIS ACCOUNT HAD MYTHIC! It was the same XBOX, but his account had Mythic but not mine! I hurriedly tried an experiment. I loaded my brother's account, then mine. While we two were playing together, WE HAD ALL THE MAP PACKS. We completed each other, in a non-gay way. But after forging for a bit, I got stumped on the map I was working on in Sandbox, and I started a new map, on Foundry. A map which was purely the result of me dawdling around back when I didn't have Mythic. I used my imagination a bit, and after some hardcore hours... I present to you... *drum roll*... Elevation! Weapons list: (It may seem like a lot, but it works) 4 Spikers 2 Plasma Rifles 3 SMG's 2 Plasma Pistols 2 Carbines 2 Battle Rifles 1 Sniper Rifle 1 Needler 1 Mauler 1 Shotgun 1 Rocket 1 Energy Sword 1 Flamethrower 1 Plasma Cannon Equipment: 1 Bubble Shield 1 Regenerator Screenshots: Overview 1 Back Overview Overview 3 The Carbine Elbow From a previous version of Elevation, but still, the screenshot works just fine as an angle, there just isn't a ledge going down on the left side anymore. The view from the Attacker's Base. The Back Alley The Sword in the Stone. And by the way, I intended that you still see part of the weapon holder, primarily just the purple lights. The Attacker's Base. The Defender's Base. The View from the Defender's Base. Now for some action screenshots: What is wrong with this picture? Ninja. No, this isn't in forge mode. This is a sneak-peek at an authentic invisible ramp. Why can't we be friends? I bet that grenadier is happy. This is some personal beef going on here. There can only be one. "Two enemies against my flamethrower? No problem." We have all experienced the power. "Oh crap! He noticed me!" "Goooodbye Wooooorld!" This isn't Halo. This is just cruelty. I am trying as hard as I can to get a rendered video, for all of you who are too lazy to download a map to view it for yourselves. Until then, here's the link again in case you don't feel like scrolling to the top of the screen. Enjoi Need Help!!! I currently do not have Bungie Pro so I cannot render any videos. If any of you would be so kind as to feature some nice gameplay clips please notify me as I will be sure to give you special thanks... or perhaps more... until then!
That's a pretty good looking map there. Forging is very good, and I commend you on using unusual weapons like the flamethrower and plasma cannon. Unfortunately I won't be able to dl as I do not have access to my 360 until in about two weeks, but that's when I'll dl. Oh btw, the screenshot 'We have all experienced the power' made me lol.
Your setup is so different for a competitive map it just looks amazing, your forging skills are pretty darn right on the spot. The only real problem i see is your high structures might be pretty bumpy cause they are on their side. i realy like this map
Wow i like it ! its seems like a great MLG map you could do with this ! I very like your weapons choice cauz i really like the Covy weapons ! So great but maybe the flamethrower could be remove for something more good !
Grenadier is very happy. I loved playing the map with slayer, but for CTF and Assault the flag/bomb spawned too close to each base. Once you wipe out the enemy team and take it, you'll already be halfway there/done. You probably changed that, but I will play again whenever you want to play some more. I could see some practical applications for the invisible ramp. If you spot a sniper stand behind it and watch him go "WTF HAX!!!!!." The actual map itself looks pretty good aesthetically. Great job Benzu, you posted your map before mine. If you need the video rendered, you could always ask someone hear or ask Golan since he has a capture card.
I remember testing this the other night with "Nukeball...". Anyways, great job man. I really did enjoy the map, and it's one of the few maps where the flamethrower is effective. Fantastic job.
mm this is sexy, i like the plasma cannon and flamethrower, the map could probably do without the sword though. try replacing it with a hammer or something. this looks like it would be super for koth and territories. its like constuct but smaller and wider and doesnt have an elephant on it. i like lemurs and pot pies are gay
This looks great, a bit like Lockout, but on Foundry. The only problem I can see is that the ground floor looks a bit empty, if you have any objects left try putting a few crates down there or something
Thank you, Recon Speller, it really means something coming from you. I will inform you that I WILL (or most likely will) make an MLG variant of the map as a few friends of mine are just begging, and make a good point. Nay nay. The grounds will be blank. This makes the map more maneuverable, plus is unnecessary by the amount of cover there currently is. Close quarters or BR battles, the floor needs to be blank. Besides, it would go against the whole solid theme of the map.
