    Calibre


    [​IMG]

    This is an asym arena built for TS and Ball. I have hardly tested at all so please leave gameplay feedback if you can. I will update the map as necessary, I have plenty of $ left.

    • 4 BRs - One on each base
    • 2 Carbines - One at each team spawn - 90s
    • 4 Frags - Two at each Team Spawn.
    • 4 Plasmas - Two at each end of middle structure.
    • 1 Plasma Rifle - Top Mid - 90s


    Thanks to Skyfish for understanding the obsession I have had with this map. <3

    Thanks to everyone else who has given me advice throughout the development of the map.

    So this is the so called Calibre I heard of on the MLG forums!
    The gameplay looks unbelievable, everything is so unique. 10/10.
    I love how everything is angled, nothing is the same. It's unexplainable... I'll just say awesome.
    Good job.
    Now get to Sandbox. :D

    looks good but I'm on a hunt for sandbox maps, sry dun ply fundry nu mure. Still looks nice. I like the center piece a lot, you did a good job on it. Can't really find any bad things about this map so good job. Nice interlocking.

    Sweet map 5/5 great layout and nothing's the same. That middle piece looks amazing.
    Though i keeping space for Sandbox and all the other goodies but i would download.

    P.S. Put some cover around the map it looks kinda naked with nothing else to hid behind.

    The map looks great Baron and i have heard a pretty good amount of hype on this map. I have been exited to see this map from one of my fav forgers for quite some time. I like (from what i can see atm) the varying height differences that so many maps suffer from the lack of. You also have walkways to most areas on the map instead of a bunch of jump-ups which ruin the flow of so many maps. I am hoping that i get my X3's tommorow so i can get some playtesting on this. I am hoping the ball plays well because the only good ball maps at the moment are Guardian, Blackout, and Lockdown at the moment

    This is a good map aesthetically, though a bit open. Try building more cover is my suggestion. Sadly however, good foundry maps like this one coming out shall be overshadowed by sandbox maps. Lol. 4/5 for me.

    Calibre looks like your only "simple map". I'm not saying that it is open, but it just seems to be not one of your great maps. Trust me, I have been a huge fan of your maps since Zenith.

    The angled double boxes caught my attention somehow because you don't see much of those on MLG maps. Upper floor game play looks interesting but the Lower Floor game play doesn't impress just yet.

    I am extremely excited to see what you have in store for us next time.

    I am shameful that the people here deem your map "too open" without more than a little glancing on what it is. Have you guys any idea how long this Baron has spent carefully crafting this map to perfection? If it needed more cover i'm pretty certain it would have had it by last christmas.

    I think this map serves its audience, and I love that you have included the plasma rifle, I have long been waiting for that weapon. I will play this map moar when you GIVE ME THE XBOX you xbox hoggin warthog.

    @Skyfish.
    Xbox is all yours.

    @ Everyone.
    Gameplay feedback > "your map Looks" feedback.

    Thank you.

    It's because that most people that post here in the map forums are a bunch if punk-ass kids that judge a map by the posted pictures rather than getting their tubby butts in a game and providing something that resembles feedback.

    BTW, Skyfish, why didn't you get in on the games yesterday during testing? Is Baron one of those blokes who doesn't like playing splitscreen? :)

    Now, on to the map. I've long awaited this ever since I heard the description of "Blade Runner sexiness", and I wasn't disappointed. The map flowed exceptionally well and, despite my atrocious Halo skills, I enjoyed playing Calibre very much(especially loved the impromptu callouts: big fat plat FTW!). I'd love to see how KOTH would work on this, so consider me in for testing when/if you decide to add it.

    Once again you've turned in a fine piece of work, Baron. I know you put a ****-ton of hard work into building/rebuilding this, and it seems like it's paid off. I hope this is able to get some more recognition between all the half-assed Sandbox maps that are flooding the community now.

    If this map dosent get a feature, Then i will be disapointed because Omni got one.

    If you havent played this map yet go play it, Its got to be the greatest Foundry map out. It is almost perfectly balanced
