    Title: Battle Creek
    Splash Splash, Bang Bang

    Description:
    This is a remake of the HALO 1 version of the map. It supports all gametypes except Escort, and Mad Dash. It features everything from the Halo 1 maps. I prefer a good game of Save one Bullet/Tank Flag. If theres any glitches, please PM me.

    You could have interlocked a bit more then you have. It looks very sloppy but if it was done good, it would be a great map.

    pretty sloppy, and battle creek was a good map in halo 1, but remakes of it are hard, sorry this map isnt working for me. good rocky ledge though, could be a bit smoother though

    the b-sign at sniper tower looks so goddamn wrong i'll have to dl it and correct it just to feel better. no, seriously though. for the roof, turn the bridges up-side-down and interlock them, and the archway looks even sloppier than the snipertower. this has been done better many times. 2,5/5

    Yeah, I mean good job trying to do the unthinkable, but in order to make a really good remake, it takes ALOT of time and effort that hardly anybody has. The map doesn't work for me sorry, but nice try and I want to see another map from you some time.

    A bit sloppy, but a pretty accurate remake of the map. The B sign on picture 4 needs to be redone, it is slightly off. And on picture 1, the bridge is a little off to the side, so it needs to be moved. But other than that, a 3/5 for me, I will DL and test.

    The map is a little sloppy; like the bridges on top of the forts look just thrown on. The rock ledge is impressive though. Don’t get discouraged however, I’m sure you can make good maps that aren’t remakes.

    Great idea. I had thought of remaking Battle Creek myself. Unfortunately, for all of us Halo:CE fans, we can never accept a satisfactory remake of Battle Creek. It was just too good of a map. In your case, a few key elements are missing. When remaking Battle Creek, the terrain should be emphasized over the bases (by this i mean make the bases single floor only.) If you would like to continue your efforts to remake the map, i support you and say that you should definitely emphasize these three locations: Sniper ledges, river, arch. Also, try to interlock more to give it that natural feel.

    So basically, i need to add more interlocking of objects in future maps?
    I'll try to do that for future maps, and fix this one up as well.

    And for the record, the pictures I took weren't that great. If you have time, maybe the map itself could show something better.

    --------------------

    anyways, i downloaded this map... and my thoughts still stand. its kindof novice work. just keep your head up and continue to forge and try harder and newer things. definately refer to the Forging 101 guide for help.

    ya um..... i would probably interlock more and clean it up, maybe in a V2. Then i would dl it.
    im going to give it a 3.5/5.
