Holy crap-a-doodle! This thing a amazing! It looks like it would be perfect for infection, zombies are propelled by man cannons and fly onto the ship. It would be awesome if you put an iceberg in front to look like its crashing, you can put the return to battlefield, so no campers on the berg.
hence the sinking ship. i like it, i do think you should have one base at the top one at the bottom though. just my thoughts. otherwise, im sure playtesting can handle the rest.
It would still float, but most likely on it's side because the side would appear to give it more surface area
Hey guys guess what! truns out this isnt a blueprint for a boat about to be built....it is in fact a layout for a map in the new game halo:Reach, it simply resembles a boat. OT: looks cool, that would be cool if you had it up against a mountain's side or something, which would explain why its sinking, and would add more playable areas to the map.
This is probably the most beautiful map I have seen, just divinely inspired... 2 Suggestions though, which will help you realise the map 1. Needs less walls. Seriously, you're gonna run out fairly quick, maybe try a downsize or just have a more simple layout. Could someone who's seen the "spoilers" run over how much it'll cost this guy 2. Maybe have just ONE ghost, on the deck. I always loved that on longshore. Also, could you release the file with the Sketchup, I'd love a closer look at this masterpiece Fantastic map man; Well done.
YOU CAN HAVE 50 WALLS. A FULL 50. WALL COLISEUMS ARE INCLUDED i swear, if one more kid posts something about only having a few wall coliseums im gonna freak.
That's one stunning sketch-up. Judging by the size, it might be over budget, but I really hope not. This would be even cooler if you set it up for something like Infection.
This looks like a very nice map! It looks pretty epic, a ship + half sunken + ability to go inside = Epicness. Can't wait to see the final product.
I swear if you make this it will definately be featured and i will DOWNLOAD THE **** OUT OF IT xD THIS IS AMAZING!
I actually like the idea of having the front part open, I think it could make for fun gameplay... or maybe not... But that's what testing is for.
ZOMG If you make this its an immediate dl from me..i love the idea, and will be using the water to make some maps of my own.
This will be a definate dl for me! This map just looks completely beautiful and really fun to play on. Good luck in forging it quickly and greatly (if that's a word ).
This map looks so fun and I cant wait to play it with my friends and I want to make ships of my own when reach comes out. And one of the best maps I have ever seen for reach.
My suggestions are Putting the boat on more of an angle and also tilting the ship slightly to the side so its not sinking parallel sinking from where it hit the rock. Where you hit the rock have a huge hole and ripped up pieces of ship there. And idk if you have done this but have some playable area's in the water not necessarily under water just in the puddles, so there not just there as a dead zone or at a wall. Make it most like a ship in Real life as possible with best additions to make better game play. That's all I can come up with at the moment hope some of it helps.
Wow this looks really awesome! Only suggestion I have is that you continue building further down into the water so that when people look for the submerged sections they can see it.
Got a message on Live this morning with a link to this thread and the words "Holy ****!" So I came looking, but the pictures aren't working (Bandwidth Exceeded). Shame The possibilities for Forge in Reach already blow my tiny mind and I don't even have the game yet!
