    Amazing forging rifte... but...
    When I looked at the forge through, there didn't seem like there were a lot of respawn points. Also, the honor rules are difficult to enforce... especially with players hopping in and out of the game. There's always gonna be someone that hijacks a vehicle and camps spawn points. That could be a real issue if a banshee gets hijacked and a marine ends up on the drop ship. I know you mentioned it in your honor rules, but it's too difficult to get a decent sized party for custom games anymore... and unfortunately there are too many unsavory players out there that still act like two year olds.

    Great forging, though.

    Well Rifte, I hate to disagree with you but I don't know where you got this "OLN"(object limit nullified?) from because Every object adds to the Total Object Limit. and deleting any object adds to the amount of object's you can place.

    Also I have to disagree with my previous post, Because there is no "Weapon Limit" Subcategory.

    I Jumped to an conclusion because I was unaware of A glitch which doesn't let you place the total amount of weapons if you spawn with that weapon.

    Example:
    Cant place 16/16 Assault Rifles on a map if you spawn with a Assault Rifle. Can only place at the max 15/16 (while solo) and it comes up with the message "Object Limit Reached"


    To the Post that started this Discussion you might have also run into this glitch?

    It's not that big of a deal really, it's just to keep the game fun.

    ...Object Limit Number. Every object you can place is in that category. There's no max weapon/spawn/block limits, there's just objects. When you hit this limit, you can no longer spawn objects until one or more objects placed on the map are deleted.

    You just repeated what I said in the first bit btw.

    OMG, OMG! This is the best map I've seen with a ship and this actually looks good for game play. I haven't read the story since I haven't had time but I'll get to it. I'll DL tomorrow too. 5/5

    There is an object limit, but the objects that are from the original unedited version of any map do not count towards that limit for some reason and that is what rifte was referring to. If you delete an object that was originally on the map, it has no effect on the OLN... only objects that you create will effect the OLN.

    Thanks for explaining it clearly, The way he described it ment that the "Battle Rifle" "mongoose" and the object's he mentioned any of those didn't count towards the Object limit.

    But it's all good now problem solved, Good map non the less :)

    First ODS3, Asset and now this. You have already proven that you are the BEST Forger in the Halo 3 community yet and this game will hopefully let you keep your throne, however I have 1 very MINOR complaint. I think that the Medic should be able to drive vechicles to. Its not like he isint as good as the rest of the marines. Also, the intro was epic. Like what LilDevil said, you have an amazing talent for making maps and also movies. I believe you should create like a mini series or something. Keep on trucking Rifte!

    Yeah man I have to say this map is pretty epic. Rifte I pretty much got the spark I needed to start my forging in Invasion Slayer and others from you. If only I could DL this I would.

    This map looks beastly. Definite download.... But I wanted to know. Can the game still play without the honor rule. Because I often get games with a bunch of people and I know for sure people wouldn't follow it. I understand the game is more fun with it, but I might have to do without it. Thanks.

    Can I use the covenant ship on your map for a map I'm making if I give you credit for it?

    No, sorry. I'll allow machinima use so long as I'm told beforehands and Phenom and I receive all credit for the ship, but I'm not ok with people using it in their custom maps.

    Rifte, I've got to hand it to you. That covenant ship is the biggest bad*** thing I've ever seen! Just the shot with the group of elites and two ghosts shows the massive scale of the beast! This WILL get a almost-permanent block on my File Share JUST for the ship. I wuvs it lots <3...Perhaps a little too much...

    You know I've tested a lot of maps, this one however stands out without a question.
    Fictionally Reach was one of the turning points in the war. It would be a loss not to see this on forge. Back story-great (Fall of Reach) Video-awesome! Gameplay-medic idea is great.
    I've actually remade Truth and Reconciliation myself. It's not human vs covenant, but rather covenant vs the Flood. With all of forge hub's wisdom it still has not been approved.

    Personally the gametype and map haz a few flaws. The ship is nice though at a certain angle it looks like a person sniping would dominate. Another thing is that the map is to open and Brs rockets and snipers would own if you had the tanks to go with them. Marines are a lil underpowered and what are the Zealots traits exactly?

    That looks really cool right now, good luck with your map :)

    ...there's no sniper on the map.

    The marines are meant to be underpowered because of the ordnance that they have. We had no objects left for weapons so OLN weapons were our last resort. In addition to that, the game is more one sided for the elites because they are supposed to win. The difference between winning and losing however, is the number of kills you get because there are two rounds.

    Zealot is stronger and faster. If you want to know the exact traits download the gametype and look for yourself.

    Good idea

    I played this maps with my friends and the first impression hasent been good however i have been impartial and shall remain so.

    Pros:
    • Good idea
    • Love the convenant ship
    • like the way its laid out.
    Cons:
    • Too many buildings to camp. When i played my friends just camped in the middle house with a rocket launcher.
    • Tanks a good idea but really doesnt work with vip- Every noob jumps into the tank and leaves the vip to his end.
    • Should be something like a assult or king of the hill
    Overall liked the map aesthetically but not duing gameplay
