Map Description

  1. Ascend Hyperion
    This is another Vanilla Forge project of mine, long since buried underneath the pile of update content.

    Halo 2 is by far my favorite Halo, and is without question one of my favorite games of all time. It's extremely hard for me not to only make Halo 2 inspired maps and remakes, but I blew off a bit of that steam here. Last Sermon (titled Gondola Template in my File Share) is a remake of the temple structure where the Prophet of Regret will meet his fate at the hands of the Chief. The remake is for exterior aesthetics only and was originally going to serve as the backdrop for a Core map of mine titled "Gondola". Unfortunately, the project never came to fruition, but I am considering creating a 1v1 map inside the structure.

    Fun Facts:

    -I made this before there was different material types. I took advantage of the shadow draw distance limitations to give the structure a weathered effect at a distance

    -In the Halo lore, this structure is believed to be an ancient forerunner construct imported from it's home world for preservation on the ring.

Recent Reviews

  1. A majestically crafted aesthetic replica of one of the iconic forerunner structures in Halo 2. The sight of this magnificent structure in the background will send a familiar feeling - a sense of awe, wonder, and mystery - and nostalgia through your screen.

    Yes! Yes!.....this used to be my profile pic and was an iconic part of Delta Halo, Halo 2, and Forerunner ancient magnificence/epicness to me. Great job, you nailed the look! Now if only someone would make a really awesome Delta Halo BTB map....hmm...

    This looks so good. I wish this style returned in later games.

    Open up the inside, recreate that lovely resting place of the prophet of regret, and play some slayer doubles!
