Map Description

  1. SimLeForgeur
    I've been wanting to make a map like this for a long time. Back in Reach I made an Invasion map similar to this and I wanted to recreate it in 5. There are obvious similarities between this map and Paradiso, but the gameplay will not be 100% the same since I tried to put aside what let Paradiso down in term of how it played. The layout was done on Tidal and without any strict restriction so it is not a remake. The power weapons are a Fuel Rod cannon for each side and a Spartan Laser on top of the mountain. Each side has 1xCarbine, 1xBrute Plasma Rifle, 1xBR , 1xPlasma Pistol, 1xShotgun,1xNeedled, 6xPlasma Grenades, 2xFrag grenades and 2xSplinter Grenade. There are also a few Storm Rifles, Carbines, ARs and BRs placed around the map. You can download this in my FS (Mostly Verah), for the moment the map supports Slayer, CTF and Strongholds. I will add Assault, location markers and cameras soon. Test sessions might lead to some tweaks, but other than that the map is ready to play.

    I also want to thank DC Valorstrike for his help in testing this map. His lobbies provide honest critique and solid feedback for improvement.

    The YouTube video presents the old version of the map. The layout is still the same except for the island, it is only to show what the map looks like when playing it.

    8/5,
    The map feels a lot like it dit in Reach but is not 100% the same which is to be expected. It is visually pleasing. It is a bit difficult to drive around in a warthog in a fast way, but It was maybe meant to be this way. Other than that the map is pretty solid.

    It is in the special effects tab I believe. I just placed them around the map and made sure I tilted them a little bit so they wouldn't look the same when they would appear on screen.
