    Paradise gives off such nice daytime effects. I'm a little confused at how this map is being contained. Are those translucent shields marked by basketball hoops? I think shields like these are the easiest ways to mark the boundaries on the space. Perhaps you could do the same with terrain and structure? Cool map, looks like there's some inspiration pulled from Complex (H4).

    The boundaries are marked by shield generator tower thingies, which keep out the radiation and other nasty stuff outside. (The shields are actually script brain boundaries with kill barriers outside.) This is actually a feature of the original location - Eos Site 1 in ME:A - which has a barrier fence much like it, although slightly prettier.

    Very convincing! I actually thought those were screenshots from Mass Effect for a second or two.

    I am interested in knowing more about your choice of words. What makes this map 100% Halo? Have I been playing 90% Halo maps all this time? o_O

    Some people seemed to think it might be a Mass Effect map for some silly reason. It's not! It's a Halo map, because we're playing Halo, not Mass Effect. I just wanted to make that quite clear.

    lol, and now that I look closer, I have to say I resent your tagline in your signature ;) Just because someone doesn't own the game doesn't mean they can't forge... the mass of bad maps, notwithstanding. You may find yourself pleasantly surprised by what a dedicated forger can do, on any platform! (stay open-minded)
