Snowblind

2v2 Slayer
9.5

Map Description

  1. Tom Cinder


    Thanks to everyone on ForgeHub that helped me test this map!

    The light of dawn brings no relief from the icy chill of this southern cove. Engineers stationed here know better to go outside in midday sun. Well... most of them.

    Snowblind was made primarily for the 2v2 Slayer contest, with Breakout being a secondary option. The map mixes long sight lines with hectic close-quarters interactions, multiple pathways, and nifty ledges. A shotgun is the lone power weapon.

    9/5,
    I love originality of the map, the visuals are up to par and the map honestly could handle 8 players no less. The work with accents and decals on the glass I enjoyed seeing that. My only complaint on my sense of detail with the decals not touching the walls or the surfaces. Also on west or "Red Wing" I noticed a glow of a UNSC eagle light on the ground. Great map keep it up!

    Great map with well thought out lines of sight. Love all the new aesthetic work.

    Looks FANTASTIC. Love using the decals to write your own signage. :)

    Looking forward to trying it out.

    It's a song by Olafur Arnalds, off an instrumental album in 2009. It was then featured in one of the Hunger Games movies.

    Thanks, Sika.
    Regarding decals, I was so disappointed when I realized that we only got ABCD decals. I've considered making a map that is a giant chalkboard with a pre-made alphabet that other forgers can use.

    That could be useful when that saving update comes out to save projects you've worked on in another map

    Wow this looks really cool, love the sight lines. Also that intro video is nice. I'd love to play on this, maybe help test it? How would I download it?

    Currently, to "download" any map you see on ForgeHub, you have to befriend the forger on Xbox live, and then in Halo go to their name, go to their files, and click bookmark map.
