    Hey forgehub, so this is my second map post. I made this in my spare time, played it with my friends and they told me it was great and i should post it. So here i am. I don't expect many downloads seeing that Reach is coming out, but comments would be appreciated. This is my latest teacher map and it is the biggest. It has three classrooms, two bathrooms, a cafeteria, a stage, a library, four offices, a janitors closet, a parking lot, a soccer field, miniature duck hunt, and a basketball court. It uses up the whole crypt and all of my items. Here it is.

    Overview

    This map is terrible because you made it.

    In all seriousness it's a very good teacher map. Soccer fields and basketball courts, libraries and lunchrooms. It's all fun. It relies a little too much on the brute shot jump, but it's really fun to play. Cool aesthetics, a way to kill the teacher, it all comes together for a fun map.

    I know that and it's a little unfortunate. v2 featured the best challenge to getting the power up, but do to lack of items all i could pull off was mini duck hunt. I plan to make a bigger school map in reach with a better way to get the power up.

    tbh i cannot understand how anyone enjoys this gametype.
    now the forging is neat. except lacking any aesthetic value. its not very interesting looking. could you explain to me how the actual gametype works because i must have not been playing it right

    It's like cops and robbers, a honor rule game. The infected tells the survivors what to do, and the survivors try to escape and get the custom power up.

    Hat I was with you when you were giving me a tour, And i got to say there is asthetics value in this map. The different classroom, cafeteria with stage, office. It was all great, Would love to see V4 In reach, May I help you with a little somethin somethin in Reach?

    Played this with you. I have to say, this never gets old. I recommend deleting the shield doors of the "Mini Duck Hunt". That way it's more of a challenge and you will have enough money to put a roof on the library. Than again, reach is right around the corner....

    This seems like a really cool teacher map. I mean it. It has lots of aesthetic value and neat merging. My favorite part by looking at it would be the mini duck hunt (though maybe too many shield doors) Gameplay seems very intense by Teacher/Cops and robbers standards. Now if only you could add a roof.

    I actually think that without the roof the library looks great, it was originally a basketball court, but then my friend suggested that there should be a library. I moved the basketball court outside and the roofless library just looked great.

    The shield doors make it fair for the humans. First you have to escape the class room, then get on the roof, then make it through duck hunt. It's a challenge, but like i said before not as awesome as the challenge in v2

    There is a roof, it's just in some pictures i removed it.

    I had a great time playing on this map, but yeah there are too many shield doors. In Reach, if you could make a massive school and an even longer Stairway to Heaven, that'll be the best version of your school series.

    5/5, but needs more interlocking. :D No, it's a 4/5 because the school is very well done, but there should be more effort in making the jumping and duck hunt more challenging, like it was in your previous version of The School.

    I know this, and i really wish i could make something as epic as the ladder to stairway to elevator to heaven, but i had to size it down to accomplish the size. In halo reach i plan to make a two/three level school that has a even bigger custom power up path. I like the name the school series.

    testing was fun. it plays pretty well. its also cool because you can FOOD FIGHT in the cafeteria! although you shud put a roof in the library at some point

    school > cops n robbers

    I don't know why every one wants this! I love it without a roof, it looks very nice with a open ceiling. I hope people don't think i ran out of objects so i deleted the roof.
