    Map description:
    Those giant tentacles are Forerunner sculptures. Play with «Asset» gametype. 6-8 players

    About my map:
    This map is the first Asset map built in the crypt. When I started this map, It didnt even looked like that... I had the idea of an ODST map, but I didn't knew what to do. One day, I joined, jakob hunter's game and I was testing his Asset map, Last Bird Out. This is how I got this idea, so I asked rifte gifle if I could use his gametype and he said "yes". Six to eight players are recommended for my map but it can support players below or above my ideal player count. The standard gametype that my map support is only VIP, but I recommend playing with "Asset V2".

    Objective:
    rifte gifle writes: The objective for the ODST is to protect the asset and keep him alive. At 2 minutes, a transport hornet will spawn on the right side of the mini base and using that, fly the VIP to the destination point in the sky.

    That was something I wrote specifically for Protocol... you might want to delete that part and make up your own story. Anyways, I play tested this a couple times with you before this was released. Not a bad Asset map, although it used to be waaay too hard to survive with the old gametype. I'm wondering how it plays with V2. Thanks for getting an Asset map together that's not part of the map pack :)

    Yeah, I now the hornet spawns at 2 minutes... we almost finished a round twice in 1 game with the Asset V2

    I'm sure you saw a lot more maps from me in the past ;P

    Played this yesterday...Looks like you have made some changes to structures, looks like there is more cover. I like the attackers starting point in this, i think alot of people did. I think this is the first asset map in the crypt so congrats, its really fun.

    Finally, a small Asset map. While some of you might view it as a bad thing, I see it as a relief, cuz I can never get big parties ;P

    Anyways, the map - amazing. Very smooth, very aesthetically pleasing. I can picture playing a game of Asset on it.

    This will be a great addition to the map pack.
