Hey everyone I have a sneak peak for you, this is a map pack Ive been working on for almost a year! It has 7 maps in it, in my oppinion the maps from best on down is Yanmee Haven, Chaotic Realm, MLG Hazard, Focal Point, Zinc, Courtyard, then MLG Stronghold. A lot of people were hyped over my map Courtyard when I released a beta of it half a year ago. But then when people played it, it wasnt the greatest game play so this Courtyard will be very different!! But if you look at both of them side by side you will see positive similarities. But enough talk here's a vid. of MLG Hazard. It is 100% done but I will not release it until ALL my maps are done which will probably be around March 2010, but I am testing 3 of my maps this saturday with friends if anyone wants to join.

Nice preview. From what I saw, you havent really read the MLG rules, unless your going for an unorthadox MLG map. Mlg maps must not include shield doors because they slow down gameplay and they must not include fence walls or fenceboxes. I loved the layout and the aesthetics of the map. Is it FFA or team? BTW, if you say its 100% complete then people will laugh if your calling it an MLG map & still having the latter stuff on it, I recommend reading up on MLG rules and fixing your map, or just releasing as competetive map. Good luck with the rest of the map pack (I recommend getting a capture card or getting someone with a capture card to film for you (BTW you can also plug most camcorders into your TV and record with them with the cables)).
thanks I didnt know cameras can do that and I did read up on MLG but it wasnt written by forgehub it was written by a member. Okay yeah I guess I'll just make it a competitive map, which means I can add a bubble shield! and the original version didnt have a shield door but I felt it was necessary to add in order to make that side of the map not such a downside to control, and with the shield door it doesn't slow down game play at all, and the map is Team oriented and works with any team gametype, you can walk through the back hallway only in symetric gametypes also, and this map works best with mlg gametype standards especially with the lay out and the custom power up. Thanks for the constructive criticism
No problem, okay, I see it may work well but there are certain standards for MLG maps which you must adhere, the guide was written by a forgehub member (I think, unless it was C&P) but it is as far as anyone on here is concerned, the MLG standards. Also bubble shield is being discussed about being used in MLG BTW. Aww, I so wanted this to be FFA, damn ;p
Looks really sweet, only thing that seems (ugly) in my mind is the A area, near original spawn, that seems like just way too many fence box's. Also you can probably do without the fence box over the bridge. But it really does look badass, Honestly the way you positioned the shield door i think it would work quite well with MLG.
well you could try it free for all when it comes out, Ive only tried it with teams and the map is balanced well even though its an asymetrical map. And yeah I remember reading about letting bubble shields be part of MLG and I decided that this map will just be competitive, and the cage box of the bridge is important. The original version didnt have it and people would grenade hop their way on top of the wall then they could walk across it and get up into this one box way up high and it really messed up game play. And I put the fence boxes over by A side as a wall because of one sided objective game purposes and I ran out of double boxes so used fence boxes instead. But even though this map will now be competitive when the pack comes out, this map should still be played with the mlg gametypes.
ok Im releasing a few more pix for my map pack and I need testers for Yanmee Haven on Sat. Jan. 10th, Yanmee Haven is built on the main floor of sandbox and I used the outer wall (out of bounds) in order to make my map bigger, I believe that I am the first to do this
