I feel like the bottom area you showed last should not be that safe to walk on. Make it some place you can go if you are careful with steps, like that spot under The Rig.
Some people make maps with floors. Others make floors that turn into empty chasms... to each their own. (experimental -- a big technical hurdle to overcome, but could be a game-mode in future)
Hey guys! Have been on and off this forum for a couple of years. Used to have the username ARCASIUS back in halo 4 and fiddled around with forge, then quit halo for a long time and forgot all my email and username log ins. I've decided to attempt a BTB version of a map i made in halo 4. It was a 4v4 map but was perhaps a bit too ambitious for what the Halo 4 forge system would allow. I'm now working on a halo 5 BTB version of it and it's coming along great. I'm drawing inspiration from eagle square for overall map flow, halo reach new alexandria for aesthetics (can't see much from above pics, will update), and traffic jam. Still a LOT of things to fix. The layout is undergoing constant change, trying to minimise piece usage, and having some issues with lighting as emissive overlay on one piece tends to make the entire map glow and its annoying. I have the pieces down to 1,100 and the lightmap isn't an issue to reduce for now. It's so high now because I've just been slapping pieces down. Let me know if you guys have any ideas/ suggestions, hoping to make this map the best version it can be. The goal is to promote vehicle gameplay, especially warthogs. I would love to have a wasp on for either team as the map looks beautiful from above but it may not be possible as framerate becomes an issue from up above. Wondering also on whether I should utilise more natural pieces such as rocks for a border around the map? Or does it look better as a floating city. Cheers! Updated pics of layout:
Yeah, good old halo forge drama. You would think our lives literally depended on producing top quality maps. Not interested in reliving it though.
I had a dream that i got invited to a h6 forge demonstration, kind of like halo 5s community cartographer thing, and we all made a map and mine was a remake of ND with a h2a warlock theme... It was dreamy
Man. I thought this thread had actually completely died but no, I just wasn't getting notifications for some reason. It's as if someone wants WAYWO to die...
Notifications stop after a small period of time. I noticed this dozens of times myself and I don't know why it happens. And sometimes you get a random one from an active thread where you haven't been in ages.
I never have open notifications. But I do still watch those old threads so maybe I should just 'unwatch' them. It's no big deal either but just weird when some dude you don't know replies to a lobby and you haven't tested a map there for 2 years.
Not too sure how it works here, but do you guys happen to have any feedback lobbies or would be able to organise something to that affect? I'd love to go through my map with an experienced forger and get a second opinion on things like map flow, sight lines, etc. Every time I ask a non-forger buddy to come check it out they're like "...uhh yeah, maybe later.." *goes offline indefinitely*.
I'm not sure how active these testing lobbies are now, but there are a couple testing lobbies that you can find here

"america is weird" is a underwhelming and concerning response to kids being taken and exploited at drag queen festivals
No the fact you're country is so utterly divided and will do anything to bring the other side to a halt no matter what. I'm as liberal as Forgehub will ever see and I'm disgusted by this, but not as disgusted as the dogmatic and bigoted divide your swell nation has become. That website is a ****ing plague to the misinformed, ignorant people who are dragged into a spiral of fake info and generalisations which all the propagandic 'media' pushes down their throats.
