    Of course not. In some of those forge videos you made, your main point was that any map that wasn't Damnation was garbage.

    But I'll show you it at some point oh great Damnation Sage.

    I've been working on the same design for a long ass time now, and the last time I did that I was happy with the result. Heres to hoping that history repeats itself:beer:

    The purple blocks represent forerunner tunnels, and the yellow/green blocks represent teleporters. This wouldn't exist without salty, so thanks man;)

    I'll be starting the super pretty version soon, and @Given To Fly will be helping me with the forerunner architecture, whether he likes it or not.

    I feel so out of the loop. Everyone here is using each others names like they know each other. And here I am, been or since 2010 and not a single person knows my name.

    Probably should put out more maps... :facepalm:

    I've been working on a similar design. An atrium with multi layers surrounding it. I sort of had inspiration from that shitty map Backwash. Instead of teleporters I had man cannons to give a Guardian feel.

    Looks great by the way. Would make for an interesting 1v1.

    Put out more maps because you want to, not because you want to be at their lunch table. I've been eating my lunch alone in the corner of the library for weeks and have picked up some really good map design ideas from Farside and Calvin and Hobbs compilation books.

    For real though, the Forge community has a very "build it (good) and they will come" atmosphere so just make sure to get feedback on in-progress maps, share your work with people, and refine them as best as you can. Unless they're Breakout maps, keep that **** to yourself.


    Are your teleporters currently receiving? Because I want access to your Rocket Launcher. :heart:

    I imagine this is how Multi reacts to anything that isn't damnation or damnation inspired.

    To me, it isnt the theme of a map that impresses me but rather how the theme is pulled of and how the geometry of that theme is used to create an atmosphere and layout.

    I could easily be just as imp

    *impressed by a covenant or forerunner theme versus something less done, say a fantasy castle theme or Lego land block theme.

    How geometry is used to create a thematic atmosphere is#1 for me. Detailed astheitics or themes just reinforce those ideas.
