So for now I'm dropping my "epic bridge" map from last week because I really just don't feel like continuing with it for now and it isn't really coming along as I would have liked. Instead, I'm focusing on a Skybubble map with a stronger emphasis on vehichle combat (something I'd like to see in more Sky maps). Here's a basic sketch of my envisioned layout. I left out a few things I want to include on this map for the sake of making it easier to understand: (Hahaha, doesn't really look too exciting, does it? Obviously this sketch doesn't properly do my ideas justice, but whatever. Things I left out: tall, raised walls on the "canyon" side, and possibly a bridge that connects the A and B areas) I'm going to need a lot of help with this, especially from people who are willing to be dedicated to this project. Usually I tend to get bored of ideas fast (.... epic bridge) and I'd actually like this to get done. Like I've said tons of times, I'm not a solo forger and I'm more into collaborations. So, who's in?
I like your idea Lippy. It does have somewhere to go. I'm not going to help you out though because I have 2 maps underway at the moment (in my sig). I would like to help out, but when you too many things going at once you can get confused. If I get bored of forging my 2 maps I might pop in have a look at how your map is coming along, so send me an FR. My GT is crypto nv.
Speaking as someone making a bridge map on in the skybubble - good luck. It's gonna take time, and a lot more patience than you know.
What if you built the bridge over the canyon type thing? Kinda like the rocky bridge with the two Banshees from the Halo: CE level Assault on the control room. You could have a large canyon type thing with a bridge crossing the top of it.
I think V1D30 GUY Did this idea before ? But it was a remake of the campaing map of halo 1 . But good idea , could help you if you need .
Let's not be frank here. Your idea needs something to spice it up. The layout is far to simple. Not to mention poor LoS and choke points. Build on what you have, try some better (revised) 2-D sketches, and possibly make a final sketchup before actually building the map.
This is really similar to Construct without the lower level if you think about it. There are the two bases on top (which are basically merged to one on this) and the large lift base. Then on the two sides are bridges conecting. I've always liked this layout because it created good BR/Sniper battles to spice up the game. However, Contruct has that bottom level and the lifts up to spice up the gameplay, and this needs something unique too. I'll think about some things and edit my post if I think of anything worth mentioning...
Good job I haven't started on the bridge then Like FG117 said, it seems a bit simple at the moment so put some more planning into it before you start making it. I applaud you for trying something different though, keep with it!
That's my exact idea actually, yeah. I just didn't include it in the sketch. I have a lot of different ideas floating around that could be worked into this map, but my epic MS Paint job is just the barest possible layout, just to show the basic idea. Knarly, I know you're working on Cynderland but we could co-forge the **** out of this once you're done testing it.
