    Sniper Chutes
    "A Game for the Skilled No-Scopers"

    [​IMG]
    Even Bungie Approves.


    Description: Sniper Chutes is a game of passion for the true no-scoping fans. There are four (4) chutes in the map that allow the player to transport to 4 random destinations via mancannons. At the end of the mancannon's journey is a strategically place Sender Node that will keep you flying through the air. Not going through the mancannons give you a disadvantage as you are constantly under fire from above.

    Gameplay: Sniper Start. No Grenades. Headshots are +2. Game to 25. Shields Do NOT Recharge. Leech is at 25%. 2v2 or 3v3.

    Yes, they work properly.

    Yes you can. While the camper is watching you, what makes him an invincible target? As I have tested it's much easier to kill people on the ground while you are flying through the air. Also much easier to get headshots.

    Yes it's possible to hit people flying through the air, but with 3v3 or 2v2 it's a lot less likely.

    Just play it and try to scope as your going through the teleports. =)

    I am a fan of no-scopes, so I am going to download when the link is up.

    Onto the map, What I like to see is that its neat and everything isnt all over the place. I dont know anything gameplay wise, but it looks fun. I also like how you go in and out in different directions. Is it possible that you would hit other people flying through the air in different directions?


    Does it really matter? If you are worried look at his pics on his service record.

    Heard of a joke?
    That's what it was.


    It looks like it really will complement sniping.
    One thing that I see, do the receivers work properly as they are underneath the man cannons?

    I never know with you. You could look like you are joking and be serious and vise versa.

    He watches too much batman. ;)

    Anyhow, looks like a fun game to play that will reward the player with the greatest accuracy...I'm wondering though...couldn't you just camp on the ground and pick off people aiming at someone else?

    I bet this would be a really long game and I can see this getting very old, really fast. I guess if you know a lot of people great at no-scoping and can get them every or every-other time maybe this would be fun...

    And jpitty, I have a feeling those are mods (the flaming recon armour). And I don't know if you read the rules or not, but mods are illegal and are also a big no-no here on ForgeHub. Forgive me if you accually know someone with recon but, I think that's highly unlikely.

    Players flying through the air are harder to hit than those standing right where you are going to fall.

    Yes it's possible to hit people flying through the air, but with 3v3 or 2v2 it's a lot less likely.

    Yes the mancannons and receiver nodes work properly. lol I would hope so since i am posting it. =) It has been tested thoroughly. Although, like any map, there may be bugs I have glanced over.

    You tickle my tummy. One of my buddies went to college with a guy who works at bungie, they play halo together and I was testing one of his maps and his friend joined to help, so I just asked if they would want to test out my map I was currently working on as well. And here we are, making accusations.

    I couldnt find the pictures on your service record. Where did you get the pics of flamming recon in your pics? On who's profile?

    They're on my fileshare now.
    I had to upload them to my fileshare because I took the screenhots while I was not connected to the internet so it set the date back to 2005 and screenshots in the gallery in the service record are taken off if they are over 30 days old.

    Looks like a lot of fun, good work. It has great attention to detail, i.e. the segments of the wall are made with 2 boxes merged together, rather then just 1. I also noticed you merged a truck into the ground, - i'd presume you used the method posted about a month ago to do that? If so, how did you find it? Tedious, easy, extremelly difficult?

    To the actual map. It looks like it could be played for hours and still be fun. Good work with all the TLC, really gave this map more depth.

    5/5 DL.

    Ha, I'm glad you noticed the two double-boxes interlocked together. Took forever. Anyways ya I used that method. Actually I used it for the first time in the process of making this map just to test it out and decided to keep it there. The tutorial said it was one of the harder things to put under but I found it was fairly easy, although it has been the only thing I have used that method for.

    Well the idea certainly is original, but idk how well it plays. but i'll give it a try. you didnt put a lot ont he map to add to the gameplay though. not that i think its neccessary but if you make a V2 you might wanna add somestuff to switch up the gameplay.

    Lol ya I guess you could try to scope. It will be very difficult as you're moving through the air at a fast rate.

    Interesting game!

    Although there ARE proven ways to mod Halo 3 to make you have any armor you want in Theater (including recon and flaming helmet (which is actually caused by a certain chest)) I'll believe you...if you can get someone else to vouch for you.

    I'm a skilled no-scoper...but only on the ground...wouldn't it be easier just to stand on the ground and shoot the people flying in the air, since they're moving and you aren't, wouldn't you have the better shot?
