Interstate 80

ElijahA submitted a new map:

Interstate 80 - Retake the Interstate from the Covenant to secure supply routes and to cripple enemy forces.

Spartans must retake the crippled Interstate from enemy forces in 3 phases in attempt to regain a stronghold in this war.

Phase 1: Capture and hold an abandoned city

Phase 2: Retake the Interstate causing chaos and crippling Covenant resupply Dropships.

Phase 3: Take to the skies, land or commando in an attempt to capture the enemy core for study and repurposing. Tank. Beats. Everything!

In all seriousness, I made this map with the focus of vehicle and infantry combat. Whenever I play...

ElijahA updated Interstate 80 with a new update entry:

Balancing/Increasing the fun factor

Stage 1: More respawn hills for Spartans were placed to give more variety to combat. Added a few more landmines to split up warfare.

On stage 2: I replaced a large section of interstate to provide more cover/point of interests for both factions. The two rocket warthogs provided were replaced by a gauss hog and two regular warthogs. The Gausshog can be overpowered but with the plasma grenades, banshee and wraith the covenant receive for phase two, I feel like its balanced out and has proven...

Solid map. My lobby had a blast and we found it to be quite balanced. Good job!

ElijahA updated Interstate 80 with a new update entry:

Update 2.0

FYI: When making this Invasion map, one thing I completely overlooked was the squad spawning mechanic. I just assumed everyone at the end of a round would move on, die and further with the objective. Nope, this proved to be not the case.

So after a week of playtesting further, some more issues were addressed and hopefully resolved. Here they are:

- Before, at the start of phase two, Spartans didn't have one safe spawn zone (which I just noticed). So once Elites died and simply...

Update 3.0

Hi everyone! This is the last major update for now unless a major exploit is discovered in which I'll make another post.

Here are the changes to Interstate 80:

Phase 1:
-Adjustments and protection barriers were created around spawns to prevent spawn killing.
-Scenery objects and buildings were adjusted/moved and created to provide uniqueness to the setting and provide interesting gameplay opportunities
-Unique power weapons were hidden throughout the city to encourage individual...

Hello. And Bye.

ElijahA updated Interstate 80 with a new update entry:

Fresh coat of paint.

I updated some of the images to reflect what you'll find in game. Made some changes to scenery and gameplay scenarios to funnel players to more key spots of importance while focused on the objectives. Phase two was shifted a bit in power and extra weapons/vehicles spawns were added.

I think the map is gone off your file share?

Thanks Arrrash,

With season 8 update, apparently my whole file share drive is wiped and won't re-upload maps and gametypes at the moment. Apparently, 343 is supposedly working on a fix. Will re-upload asap.

ElijahA updated Interstate 80 with a new update entry:

Phase 2 Balancing

If you watched the gameplay provide on the YouTube link, you'll see some examples of flawed gameplay. For example: the last 10-15 minutes are easily dominated by covenant forces as the elites just hug the shield wall and wait to kill the Spartans as soon as they rear their heads.

I wasn't a fan of this gameplay so I changed some stuff. To heavily discourage spawn killing right at the shield wall, I deleted many decoration items to put a highway right above the entrance where Spartans will...
