    Lockout
    By TimeDipper & D4rkDeath

    "Some believe this remote facility was once used to study the Flood harvest volcanic energy. But few clues remain amidst the snow and ice lava and fire"

    Hi Halo Community,

    Today we bring you Lockout! As you might guess, this is a remake of Lockout from Halo 2. We decided to keep the name Lockout as this is not a remix adjusted for Halo 5 gameplay but an accurately scaled version of the classic map we all know and love. Yes I know...another Lockout remake. BUT! Believe me, you're going to want to check this one out! Keep reading please.

    During the Extermination contest D4rkDeath and I stumbled across a trick to make the best looking lava in Halo 5. We then came up with a unique theme never done before and created Ignition. After the completion of Ignition we knew we were not done yet with this theme, we wanted to show off this unique experience one last time to the community.

    And we fast forward to today...Taaa-daaa! The best looking and one of the most accurate Lockout remake to date in Halo 5.

    Weapons

    The weapon set stays true to the original with two slight adjustments.
    • Mid-BR Base needler has been replaced with an SMG
    • Shotgun spare clip has been reduced and timer increased
    • Library magnum changed to gunfighter magnum
    Recommended Gametypes:
    • Slayer 2v2
    • Strongholds 2v2
    • Classic Slayer 4v4
    Words from the Co-Forger:

    D4rkDeath:
    "Lockout has been a favorite of mine since day one. I have always wanted a great looking aesthetic version built in halo 5. Others had made some good remakes of it in the past, but I feel TimeDipper and I really pulled off a new refreshing theme for such a classic map. This map was way more difficult than we anticipated, fortunately we (more TimeDipper) had the dedication to pull this off."


    Thanks for checking out Lockout! We highly encourage you give this map a try! Feel free to provide us with feedback below.

    10/5,
    I know I helped make the map, but I’m going to review it anyway. TimeDipper deserves most of the credit here. At the beginning of H5, I struggled to make my own Lockout and looked for others to make one. Once we had figured out the lava trick, it was inevitable. I love Lockout, putting a new skin on it just made it better. This is hands down one of the best remakes in Halo 5 and is the best Lockout remake, fight me.

    This map plays just as well as the original, but feels more tailored towards the Halo 5 weapon and player balance.

    The visuals are stunning and the new setting really breathes fresh air and life into a classic map. No doubt this map was handled with much love and care. Ive had the pleasure of playing on this map multiple times and I can safely say it looks stunning, plays great, and would be a fine addition to any personal tourney or custom game!

    10/5,
    The moment I caught wind of this inspiration on a classic, I couldn't wait to see the final product. Lockout has always been a community favorite for good reason; layout and gameplay on many grounds. As much as I enjoyed the layout of the map, reiterations that were in past Halo titles didn't leave me impressed for some odd reason. TimeDipper' toasty overhaul ignites my feelings towards the original. The background is as hot as the title of the map. After testing, this version of Lockout played smoothly with the Halo 5 standards we know all too well. I highly recommend this to anyone who enjoys small team capabilities with a flare to a classic map.

    10/5,
    TimeDipper did this map up good. Like, it actually looks like it fits in Halo 5, and it plays as it should, true to the classic Halo 2 map. Did I say Halo 2 again? Oh, yes I ****ing did. I really like that game. I'm honestly jealous AF that TimeDipper pulled off the best Lockout remake in Halo 5 without my intervention. He should make another version of this map with icebergs and stuff.

    First off, to teh readerz here, let me say that I legitimately had NO part in the making of this map (I know, it would look even better if I did =P) - D4rkDeath texted me just this morning and was essentially like, "Hey man, I just released a Halo 2 Lockout remake with fresh aesthetics". So, I logged into forgehub and expected a fairly familiar look...but what the ****? It has orange? Wat. The orange trim and lighting - brought me back to Ancestor. The orange lighting seems to capture the modern/futuristic essence of the Warrior forerunners, while the classic map design retains that nostalgic sense of gameplay and joy. When I saw this map, it didn't look like Lockout 2.0 - it looked like something 343i could make with a rev-amped theme and some kickass lava goodness. If Tom French the Wizard Himself or anyone from 343i is reading this, I humbly would like to say I have two wishes: 1) Halo 6 forge contains a Tyrannosaur sound, and 2) Halo 6 has a remastered/kickass Lockout map

    Nice job guys.

    Two small issues with the lift. You get caught on it if you are not moving full speed, and it does not properly eject you on to the floor above.

    TimeDipper could have his own for sure! This can add to it!

    We put a circle of blockers around the lift to fix that problem and went on the original to look at where you land and adjusted it. Thanks Nokyard!

    Wow 2 months, I have a problem when I build maps.. Almost all the maps I forge, I finish them the same day, 2 days top.. Then I test them and post them here.. If a map has no script can take me up to 6 hours to finish them if I know what I'm doing.. :)

    We are looking to add oddball to this, anyone know of a working set of scripting for oddball?

    Don't forget One Flag since two flag game types don't work due to the elevation difference and ground pound enabling 5 second captures.

    For the record, CTF is set up on this map, however I recommend classic settings for that. Rumor has it that we are still getting one flag?

    The map looks great on most areas, but the frame rate is horrible. :(

    I've experienced it here and there, but it isn't even as bad as a few BTB maps out there.
