Foundry - A Strong Remake of Halo 3's "Foundry"

Thanks for the compliment, CK. And as for the original ceiling grenade bounces, I regret to inform you that "...compromises had to be made." ;_;

 

Balancing the home bases was one of my biggest concerns when recreating Foundry. Initially, I opted for a "manual override" switch for both home bases (windows), that would be located near the rocket launcher spawn; but I decided against it, as I deemed it counter-intuitive to game flow. I'll look at the options, and most likely settle for a delay timer script for the window switches. Believe it or not, there are actually four points of entry for players attacking a home base. It'll take some work, and maneuvering, but it's entirely feasible. It's very satisfying to get a plasma caster kill when a player is camping the red/ blue flag spawn from above.

I seriously contemplated for each home base to be fully enclosed, no ceiling gap or moving windows, and recreate the "window crouch jump" of the original version! ;D

Also, do you also remember when "G4" or "Straight Ribbon" was a thing? Ha!

 

I appreciate the kind words, Fatum. The industrialized, or urban, atmosphere was my intended vector of theme. And while I was tempted to incorporate the cargo container pieces, like in the Halo 3 version, as part of vital geometry, I decided against it... "for budget reasons." ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
