NRA TOWER ARENA Click Here To Download The Pictures The Introduction Firstly I'm hoping this was the right place to post my FFA Map, and Secondly I did just intended on creating this Map Variant for my Local Lan Clan Group in Sheffield ( So hence the NRA in the Maps Title ) but thought I would Up it on here for all. Also Please note as this is sort of a Quake + Halo hybrid idea, I have just included the Map Variant ONLY,( hence the starting weapon choose of my map for example. ) The Game Variant I have left up to the individual to create for how they would like to experience/play the map, whether it be a FFA or a Mid Air Rocket Arena using no other Weapons on the map just only using starting Weapons of their choice like Rocket Launcher. Brute Shots etc... ( the sort of equivalent to Quakes Rockets and such ) The Primary/Secondary Weapons, Frag/Kill Limits of the Game, The player Damage/Health again I have left this action up to the individual Players to Create in the halo Game Variant menus. Now lets begin... The Weapons Placed On The Map 1 SMG 1 Plasma Rifle 2 Brute shot's 1 Convenant Carbine 1 Battle Rifle 1 Fuel Rod Gun 1 Plasma Cannon 1 Sentinel Beam The Grenades 2 Plasma Grenades 2 Frag Grenades 2 Firebomb Grenades The Map Includes 1 Grav Lift 2 Man Cannons The Weapon/Grenade/Lighting Spawns Plus Other Additional Information On Them SMG = 30 Seconds, and Placed at the start Plasma Rifle = 30 Seconds, and placed at the start Brute Shot = 30 Seconds, and placed at the start, Spare Clips 2 Convenant Carbine = 30 seconds, and placed at the start, Spare Clips 2 Battle Riffle = 30 Seconds, placed at the start Plasma Grenade = 10 Seconds, and placed at the start Frag Grenade = 10 Seconds, and placed at the start 1st Blue Light = Start of the Map and placed at the start Firebomb Grenade = 60 Seconds, and Not placed at the start Also simultaneously 1st Red Light = 60 Seconds Not placed at the start Fuel Rod Gun = 90 Seconds, and Not Placed at the start, Spare Clips 1 Plasma Cannon = 90 Seconds, and Not placed at the start. This Weapon is meant for pulling off the tripod Also simultaneously 2nd Blue Light = 90 Seconds, and Not placed at the start. Sentinel Beam = 90 Seconds, and Not placed at the start,- Also simultaneously 2nd Red Light = 90 Seconds, and Not placed at the start. The Explanation This Map has taken me along time to build, adding bits at a time and has been a form of a hobby now and again for me and started out being based upon a quake map ( but the map layout design ended up turning out to be something else entirely ) and was being made for 2 members of our Sheffield Clan Lan Group hence the NRA in the title ( N.R.A Stands for Nood!e Republic Army ). The map on Quake was called endif YouTube- Quake World Endif Air Rockets and it was a mod type map for Quake 1 from Quakeworld. The Objective on that was for mid air rocket training. Theres alot more to it and to explain than just spawning mid air and trying to kill them while their in the air before they hit the ground, But as this is Halo and not Quake it has turned out to be a bit of a Hybrid FFA with a difference, the difference being of course 1. Spawning then falling from the air, and 2. the Weapon choices I have included ( again though I must add if you feel they are to Over Powered as this is halo not Quake, please feel free to simply once the Map Variant is downloaded to change the Weapons to what you like in forge for your own playfull taste with fellow gamers, its simply easy enough to do, will take mere seconds, and it is each to their own as they say ) and the 3rd being that the Arena is made 3D sort of speak due to the fact you can play this Arena while on the ground, in the air or on the 4 platforms above. The Summary A Hybrid FFA/Mid Air Rocket Arena Map Variant ONLY, this map starts you falling from mid air, with the sign NRA and the 1st blue light lit up on a Top platform, once you stop failing there are 4 Weapons on the ground, 2 Brute shot's 1 SMG, and 1 Plasma Rifle ( I have chosen to include an smg and a Plasma Rifle for the use of dual which is different, plus also looks good together on my map, just like a fire and Ice combo when firing ) Also made available on start is 1 Battle Rifle next to 2 frag Grenades, and 1 Convenant Carbine next to 2 Plasma Grenades on the two Mid platforms above, access to these Mid platforms can be made by the ground Man Cannons to the Top platforms then by jumping down to the Mid platforms ( a note for some people as you may well know the use of man cannons on halo are unpredictable and all depend on where you hit them to where you take off and land, please note and be advised that where some pro's may find these easy to use on my map, they maybe some of you who may have difficulty with them, but be assured, I myself and others who I've played with can do and use these everytime without fail. So to conclude map = not at fault, just simply put, once you can use/master them, you can use them everytime and be Pro ) After 60 Seconds into play, on the ground the 1st red light will light up along with 2 Firebomb Grenades. After 90 Seconds into play, across from the 1st red light on the ground, the 2nd blue light will spawn along with the Plasma Cannon ( Where you have to pull it off its tripod for use and in which I know is Over Powered for the map but I wanted this map to have a different feel to it and by adding this it is a FFA map with a difference and again with one forge click away after downloading the map, gamers can easily add there own taste by deleting or by replaceing it. On the place where the 2nd blue light/Plasma Cannon is and at the same time at 90 Seconds there will spawn a Grav Lift ( Grav lift just to add a Plasma/Watery feel to it plus makes for a fun jump within the map itself ) Also during 90 Seconds into play the Fuel Rod Gun will spawn at the Top blue platform ( With Mid Ammo not to be to much but just enough for the use on the map and won't be to much like say 1 blast from a rocket launcher which can kill in 1 shot, the Fuel Rod takes 2 Ammo to kill ) At the same time again of 90 Seconds into play, across from the top blue platform where the Fuel Rod Gun is, at the other Top platform the 2nd red light will spawn along with the Sentinel Beam. ( Again I chosse the Sentinel Beam, as the same reasons as the Fuel Rod Gun/Plasma Cannon to add a distinctive/different/Quake and Fire and Ice feel to the overall Arena map design. ) So Here Is My Map, & I hope You Will All Like It, Thanks & Enjoy but Most Of All and Above Everything Else, HAVE FUN!!!!!!
Im not really understanding the game...but i think im getting it. The middle stuctures are very interesting. I like the idea of a giant area that will have dead bodies flying everywhere. The weapons a fairly placed out. But im just worried that people on the top are gonna camp.
Thankyou very much for my Truly first Reply on this map Lil FlipKid 8o8, Yeah, I was a bit worried aswell on that and on the player respawns in general tbh as there are only 4 ( I'm still thinking of adding more player respawn points as if played as a FFA I think it needs alot more ), I also thought by playing it as a FFA It will be abit Crazy and alot of things would be going on to camp. There would be no time for camping on this small map just plenty of killing lol Just Spawning and getting straight into the action Depending of Course on how you want to play and use the map FFA or the Mid Air Rocket Arena.
4 player spawns ok that u might have to add more it depends on how many are on the map, if FFA or Team Air or what you said it' going to get pretty predictable where they are going to spawn. you might want to add another 4 to 6 for FFA and close to 8 for Team air. Other then that i remember this map although the bots were pretty dumb and nomally i had a LAN conection with my mates its a pretty fun map
Thankyou for your comments, The map has just been amended this weekend, 8 More Respawn Points Added + the 4 already on the map = 12 now in total. Note:- You still fall from the sky but that is the design of the map sorry, Plus as I said above even used as a FFA as its a small map and depending on how many gamers are on it there would be to much going on and it would be so fast paced there would be No time for camping the spawns from the bottom just standing still waiting for the player models to drop. In Short you would Simply be shot down within seconds of standing around waiting. I have Now Today Replaced the Old Downloaded link In My first post with the updated one. ( Also You Can Click here too ) Thanks
