So i was eagerly waiting for a response to this, but then i saw Furious posted on this, and to me, furious' opinions are as good as anyones so i took the liberty of actually downloading it instead of just trying to make people mad, and i was actually impressed. however, i do concur with my first statement, the pictures suck. The layout of this map is very sound and the pictures don't show it at all, like this is a perfect layout, to the T. I played a 1v1 with my friend here, and he was equally interested in this map as I was. I also see how this very well could have taken 100 hours, the only thing that isn't interlocked or merged with geometry are like the weapons. So, good map, hope i didn't piss you off too much =] and why do you want my myspace?
This seems like an incredibly well crafted map and worth the dl. I do have to agree with another poster however a Matchmaking version would allow more people to experience the map as MLG gameplay isn't everyones cup of tea. Thanks again for the great map it truly is excellent in it's design.
You can indeed jump on these. You have to jump on the dumpsters and then, you jump on the doors, which stick out enough for you to land and jump up to the top tower. I saw some amazing forging (merging double box with crane, wow), but like the whyer said, I saw some interlocking flaws. I remember a rough transition from the on the side(s) of the base(s) to the base or to the towers. I also remember on the taller tower a spot where the double box up top was slightly raised above the slanted boxes, which created a slight bump. They didn't really affect gameplay, but I thought that I would let you know the slight fallacies. I also had trouble with callouts for the towers. They both had Carbines and had A and B signs, so I just called them tall tower and short tower.
Thanks for the comment man. The reason the map doesnt look amazingly good is becuse we, 1: Couldn't use the budget glitch becuse MLG wont pick it up if it has it, due to Bungie not putting glitched maps in MM. 2: Dad to get it done by a certain date for testing. 3: Its still in the building process, its not a finished map. Still in the testing phase, we'll probably go back and make everything perfect when it is. Gameplay > Looks.. on this map. Had to be that way, if we could've used the budget glitch, this map would be beautiful. I appreciate the comment though, made me feel pretty good! haha. When Bungie gives us a new canvas I'll probably make a new map, but for now I'm pretty much done with foundry. You confuse the hell out of me.. But.. thanks? I wanted your myspace to see what you looked like, you were acting like you were the ****. Sorry bro.. haha. And, just sayin, not my first map, I made Chill Out and MLG Onslaught, so yeah.. I have my connections with MLG, dont need the gameroom. But thanks for the help.
hmm so budget glitch = no mlg or bungie. hmm maybe my next map i shouldn't use it. But the fact that this map was made with a minimum of items its very impressive. Been playing this map alot.
dude you sound like my girlfriend. anyway, i am the ****. and heres what i look like: http://www.foxnews.com/images/162326/2_26_rader_dennis.jpg
To be honest with you I highly doubt that it took you 100 hours, but it looks like a very good map, so keep it up
this is an awesome map an i'm really liking all the geomerging you've done. i actually found a way to break the map though. all i needed to do was go onto the bay door sided base and grenade jump on the boxes an find my way out. just to let you know.
every new picture i saw surprised me. i didnt think you could have done better but.. it just got better! il try it out P.S. if anyone has read my "pledge" this does not count as my map-a-day
I'm going to edit this to be a little more civil. The last post was a bit too mean, even for me. Why did you say "nice first map", and then later state that you knew about Chill Out? Why are you having a go at Nexn for defending himself against completely ignorant attacks? He knows what he's talking about, he backs his statements up, he has experience in forge. He wasn't being arrogant, he was being honest, and he was in a perfect position to do so to knock you back down to Earth. Why did you bash the map without even trying it?
I playtested this a couple of days ago - was great fun. Apart from the me getting owned part. Still - great map, good interlocking, great lines of sight, good weapon placement. All in all - 5/5 and download from me.
I really liked the improvement to 1.3 for the most, but I hate how you made the jump to carbine tower so much easier. It really gives a more skilled player an advantage when they can pull it off, but now, just about anyone can do it. I still love the map and hope MLG picks it up because the maps on the current circuit just aren't getting it done right now.
Nice, loved the interlocking and the merging into the map geo. I really like the flow of this map, smooth and flawless, in gameplay and level design. 5/5
well i played it by myself, focusing primarily on breaking out of the map. Impossible. there was one spot i looked at that i might be able to.. but il try it next time i play it. this is an amazing map. good job
