    This is a very nice remake of Turf. Probably the best that I've seen so far. It has very smooth forging and I really like how you made the tent on the end of the street. Only thing that I felt was off was the small ledge that runs along above the ramp by the garage doors. Fix that and this should be a perfect remake imo. I played 7 player FFA and it felt just like the old Turf, so Great job.

    Wow. This looks phenomenal. The forging looks extremely well done, with no hiccups seen thus far. I downloaded it, but I can't give a review until I get a new Halo 3 disc, sorry. But regardless, this is the best remake of Turf I've seen, excellent job.

    i'd have to disagree with the above poster, i've played on it and everyone in the party agreed that although it did share a few similarities, the scale was off and it just kinda wasnt very fun.

    I love the look of it.
    And overall it looks pretty dang close to the original one.
    Great job on that! Remakes can be very hard and fustrating.

    Ah yes! This is really good remake! I was waiting for someone to pull this off. The only thing i would add (if it doesn't burst the budget) is by the walls where the sniper spaws, where theres just the top part and the walls, i suggest putting double boxes ON TOP of the walls so it seems like it has a roof like in the old version. Another thing that would be cool (asthetically) would be to put below where i was just talking about on the ground, ome columns every end of the wall to make it seem like the shops are there, again like in the old version.

    Also a really cool thing to do would be to put radio antennas where sniper is and about 10 feet on the other side so it emulates the "ladders" that you can knock down to walk across the otherside.

    ONE LAST THING! Sorry. The map is incredible, im just nit-picking WAAAY to much. Only suggestions to make it a little more city-like. Put a dumpster on the corner of the 5th picture. where the ramp on the right goes down opposite to the warthog room/ base thing. i remember hiding around that area from time to time.

    But otherwise 4.6/5! excellent job and i look foreward to playing on it.

    looks like a pretty good remake but your missing a few things like the scarab. Also a few porportions are alittle messed up like the garage it is alittle bigger than the original H2 version but otherwise a good map. I did a remake of Turf but i did mine on the main level of sandbox, i think if you had done it up there you probably could have done alittle more detail but otherwise good job. i give it a solid 4/5

    No, I think if you did your map up on the main level of sandbox you wouldn't have been able to re-create this map so well. Really well done. At first I thought that you made it all one level, but as I kept scrolling through the pics, I realized you did an awsome job with what sandbox gives you.

    wow i've played it and loved it, very true to the origional, a small downside is the window, it seems awquard to jump through and also it is very easy to grenade jump out via getting ontop of the garage. same with plasma pistol spawn but it feels great otherwise and a great remake!

    Thanks for the comments all!
    they are great

    Sorry but Like i said in my map post "i cant add anything since the budget is at 0$" but thanks anyway!
    hmm why would i want to do the scarab?
    that would only cost much money and it would not change gameplay at all. and the map would be a lot smaller if i did it on the main floor , and cost more money since there is no walls up there.



    And i know that this map is escapable cyanide and thats because the budget on sandbox isnt large enough to build a map like turf.
