With the days of dwindling down to the release of reach I have been a bit apathetic about begining construction on a new. However I have had this idea for a while now about building a bombed out city with multiple buildings ranging in height and mostly clear streets so it would be warthog and mongoose friendly. I think it would play great for all objective and slayer gametypes especially swat. Also for an terminator inspired infection gametype I made called Hunter Killer. So if the forgehub moderators would like a cool contest for sanbox see below for some of the my suggestions for build parameters... 1) I must be built on a towerless canvas on the ground level of sandbox if you need one check out xgamer's canvas at http://www.forgehub.com/forum/aesthe...xgamer849.html 2) Streets must be somewhat navegable, and at least a double wall to a double wall in a half in width. 3) Buildings don't have to be too tall, especially cause with the item limit you wont be able to make many if you make them too big. Get creative it can be the remnant of a tall building that collapsed. Try for as many buildings as you can. Geomerging into the surrounding hills of sand would be cool as well. 4) Build it however you want but have at least one of every vehicle weapon and equipment type budget glitched and on the map. This will allow your fellow forgers to customize the map Other than that i'm open to suggestions. Hit me. ManRayX LV-426SIETCHHAIL MARYSHADOW-ASSAULT
So what you are hoping to see is someone to make a city on the middle level covering all the dunes aswell! I'm sorry but i cant see that happening. Maybe with the guardians on but deffinately not with them off, it will be just to big.
I don't think he means for the outside to have buildings as well. But yeah, I don't know why he thinks a towerless canvas should be used..
I also do not see why anyone would need a link to a towerless canvas because nearly everyone on forgehub already has one and those are pointless because you loose half the OLN. Back to the map, there is a good chance that a map such as this would be fun to play on, however, there is a much, much smaller chance someone is going to build said map for you. That said, I have no idea why you want the guardians blocked so explain a bit more about your map.
First off the intent was to build in the center of the map as if the desert had reclaimed the city. Kinda like Las Vegas in that resident evil movie. The reason why I suggested building it on a towerless canvas was simply to give it more options for gameplay/types. Also I have reconsidered and begun construction on a map that will have two tall structures (like twin towers) that will be mostly burried/geomerged into the tall hill at the edge of the center of the map.
http://www.forgehub.com/forum/competitive-maps/93170-metrokalypse.html ^This is the best urban map on the mid level I have ever seen in terms of lots of buildings. http://www.forgehub.com/forum/mini-game-maps/97048-city-streets.html ^This is a minigame I made with tall buildings in the Crypt. It is a cool game and involves fighting in streets with vehicles. It is not glitched in any way, so feel free to mess with it to your liking. There are countless other urban maps. If you are too lazy to make your own, then give someone else credit while you take theirs for you gametype.
I can block the towers on a map without even starting a new round (and most other people probably can), so pre-blocking them is kind of pointless. I do have one map on my hard drive (never found it on forgehub though) that makes the entire midlevel of sandbox into close quarters combat. I will see if I can get that too you because you could probably just make a custom gametype for it. Only problem is the streets are not really navegable.
