I haven't seen a map this beautiful since Placidity,(which would've been perfect without the lag) But this was made on tempest which is very good.The dome roofs are gorgeous, and the pillars are very nice as well. Good to see such nice aesthetics; I hope it plays as great as it looks.

 

Looks like a pretty interesting map. I like the pillars and domes a lot, but one thing I would change: It looks like the energy sword in the middle is fixed. I would maybe set it to something else and try and balance it, or if that didn't work, I'd make something it could lay against or lay down on. Very good map well done!

 

Hey I just want to clarify that your DL link has to lead directly to the map, not to you fileshare. If I were you I would try to fix that soon. Nice map BTW.

 

This is a nice looking map. I like to rotate structures like you have, but you have done it really well. Nice theme, nice to see a decent map made on tempest. Great forging. Also a little tip for u to stand sword on normal. Place the sword like it is in pic tight to floor on fixed or phased then once u have let it go highlight over it and change to normal. Should stand up also works with hammer. As long as standing up straight and as close to floor as possible

 

This map looks amazing, and now I am even more sad that I don't have the Noble Map Pack. But I actually like the black and white effect in the first picture. It reminds me of the tower fortress in Heroes III, and it gives the map a snowy feel. I don't know if it was included in the final map, but I like it with the filter on.
Aside from excellent aesthetics, the layout kind of reminds me of Assembly, from Halo 3, but it looks better than that. It looks like it should play very well.

 

This map is amazing. The aesthetics are great and it does not hinder the game play at all. The only thing is the sniper in the sniper nest may be a little overpowered since there is only one way to get to it. You may want to place the sniper in the middle of the battlefield so that they have to fight to reach the snipers nest. Overall wonderful map.

 

WHAT IS THIS?!?!?!
I need to find a friend that has it. unfortunately, most of my friends play Black Ops (I don't know why, I can't stand the online multiplayer on it; it's horrible).
But do you mean recovering the gamertag, then like re-downloading it?

 

does it save it as if you bought the maps or if i move my gamertag or whatever will I lose it? Also, will bungie kill my puppy if they find out what I'm gonna do?

 

Those dome roofs look gorgeous, but the crosses look out of place and threw me off. They're just too big. I recommend removing two of the three and just having one tower with the cross, or at least make them less thick.

 

I loaded this map up and two thoughts hit me at once, 1)the asthetics are beautiful and 2) Spawns and Respawns. The fact that there are only 11 respawns for each team could end up being a MAJOR problem, also, you will require nuetral respawns and initial spawns on the map, or you will have players spawning on the ground underneath in FFA. The spawn areas are so large as to be sloppy, covering half the entire map, you might as well have no spawn zone at all! Which brings me to another problem, the lack of other teams (or even neutral [re]spawns) lowers the rank of this map considerably. I'll come back with an 'improved' version. The weapon spawns are also a flaw, a 30sec respawn sniper with 2 clips will undoubtedly overpower the map. And, to get rid of those kill zones that barely keep anyone in, use a safe zone. I would also get rid of the sniper nest, yes, it is slightly overpowered, I would move the sniper to where the tele used to be on that side.
PS: change the description, 16 is way too much for this map lol.
All right, no offense, but I went on to improve your map, dont get frightened! You shoudnt even notice the difference. The changes are:
-Green/Yellow teams added
-Respawns added
-Spawn zones fixed/added
-few weapon placement fixes+weapons added
-Overshield replaced by sword
-Sniper tower deleted, sniper placed where the tele was
-grav lifts to reach platform opposite of where sniper tower/tele was
-gametypes added
-grenade launcher added under the platform opposite of sniper tower/tele
-More cover for red/blue bases
-grenades changed to normal instead of phased.
-weapon clips and spawn times adjusted
-main cross kept, other crosses deleted
heres the DL link: http://www.bungie.net/stats/reach/fileshare.aspx (its set up for all gametypes but stockpile)
With spawns: 3/10
WWithout spawns 8/10

 

Just some food for thought, there are other methods to make a weapon float without fixing it in place. You can spawn and place a weapon as "fixed" then just use the x button w/o actually grabbing the sword to turn it to normal.

On a lighter note, absolutely astounding forge work here. It plays very well and I enjoyed it ALOT

 

I like how you used it on Tempest. You wouldn't think it, but the background really adds "character" to the map. Nice job with this. The aesthetics are beautiful and seems like it could host some pretty fun games. You definitely got my DL.
