I am volcanic Decay, I am mostly an infection forger but my go to type of maps are Linear infection maps. if you are not sure what a linear map is basically you have to types of Infection maps
Free roam and Linear
A free roam map allows the player to roam around the map hiding in any place he or she wants and is allowed to hold out until the end of the round
Linear maps gives the players a path to follow forcing them down a campaign story felling type of map crated by the author. each section of these maps are broken up into phases. each phase last up to around a minute were the player must hold out at a point on the map until they can move to the next phase most Linear maps has around 3 phases and a holdout or some sort of power use at the end insuring that the last remaining survivors can survive.
Iv been forging Linear maps since Reach and im always creating new ideas for fascinating ways to tell a story in a linear setup.
Reincarnation (Outbreak) is my first working Linear map in Halo 5, allowing players to move around the map and surviving each phase.
Each phase gives a different approach to holding out so you dont fell like you are staying in the same area
what I mean by that is the first phase you are able to survive and hold out with a turret.
The second phase you must hold out until you are able to escape into the elevator
And the third and final phase you get access to a Worthog
Each phase gives the players a different approach to holding out in each phase making the game play fell different from other infection maps. In order to progress through each phase you must wait for a trigger to spawn, once you activate the trigger you may proceed through the rest of the map.
Tips and helpful hints to surviving, stay together and work together if you dont work as a team the infection will grow rapidly in numbers ending the game faster. in each phase around 10 seconds before the next phase the infection will start poring out closer to you from different infection spawn rooms. to prepare yourself monitors will start to blink the infection symbol on them letting you know the infection will start attacking soon.
Play this map with around 10 to 14 players with the game type Reincarnation under my file share. if you have any concerns about the map or would like to contact me my gamer tag is xVolcanic Decay so enjoy the map and be on the lookout for the next map part to my series
