After leaving the Halo:Reach RPG project until we manage to get our crap together. I decided to work on a map pack. On March 5-6th I began to play Halo:Combat Envolved from 8pm - 3am in the morning. Finally some kind of project. The Valiant Map Pack contains 3 map: Station 41 is the only one were gonna announce for now. Station 41 is a inspired map from Halo:CE's Campaign. The structures where marines are holding out. I'm also making a revisioned Invasion/Infection Cross-over. I call it "Survival". The map supports 12-16 Player Invasion. The 1st Phase is for the spartans to hold out for 1 Minute in the structure holding the elite forces back. Then comes hell, Phase 2 is a Power Outage. You must restore power to call for evac. There is a generator located left of the structure where spartans must re-boot the generator in 30 Seconds. Finally, Phase 3 wait for evac. Falcons on there way, spartans hold out the covenent for 60 seconds. This was a Co-forged project thanks to KINGJDOMINATION. There will be a dual commentary video showing off the map and explain in futher detail how this Invasion Gametype stands out. Changes From Beta to Final Product: -Still deciding on removal of revenent with an addition of ghost. -Still deciding on removal of Wraith or Banshee. -Removed Spartan Res Zone near Generator -Added 30 Seconds on Holdout (Phase 3) -Moved Power Weapons to more open areas. -Removal of Secondary Man cannon -Drop Shield Removed from both Spartan/Elite loadouts. -Removal of Warthog. -Addition of 3rd Res Zone near main structure. Video will be uploaded tomorrow! Fun facts: - Did you know when I first named my map I called it "dnalsinep". (Some people will get the joke!) - Elites were called "Mexicans" during the beta by 2 testers. - THIS MAP IS HECTIC with 14-16 Players. - There is a Easter Egg Located somewhere in the map. - Map was based off one of the Halo:CE Campaign Missions. - That Halo:Reach Servers shut-down today!
Will you be following through with this? You constantly fall through with all these map pack ideas, and I like many of the ideas, but they never seem to reach fruition.
Yeah you always build up all this hype but then I never seem to find an actual finished product. Hopefully this time you'll follow through
This Im sure. Remember, Im only confirming one map is done. The 2nd map was started on, then I went to play some matchmaking. 3rd map is still be figured out. With the last map packs I annouced I always had a release date and screwed me up. I told alot of people that in the new year (2011), I would leave all that behind and get my **** managed and completed.
