    Description:
    This is Quarantine. This map is part of the MLG Halo 3 Forge Forum Map Pack II. The
    initial design for this map, which was a symmetrical map was thought up almost 2 years ago, it was built in Foundry, for the most part, but ended up not being finished due to limitations in Foundry's size and objects. With the release of Sandbox I revisited the design and Sandbox still wasn't big enough for what I wanted, so I thought to myself 'What if I destroyed the map, and turned it into an asymmetrical mao?' so after playing around with that idea for awhile, I started to put together some concepts in Sketchup. After the initial Sketch was done, I started forging it, over 2 months went into forging and playtesting this beast and the end result is almost exactly how I wanted it to be. This will be my final map for Halo 3. I hope everybody enjoys it as much as I enjoyed building it.

    I've been waiting for this one to release. from the teaser trailer a while back I knew this map would kick ass. Then I ran around it with Squidhands when he nabbed it off your FS a few days ago and my thoughts were confirmed. Love the destroyed feeling. I think the broken rocket ramp is my favorite part. How it feels as if that upper level extended all the way to the wall of the crypt at one time but now is broken and fell down, creating the ramp. Great aesthetic-functional touch. I've yet to actually get a full game on this, but I definitely plan on it soon. Its one of the biggest Crypt maps I've seen in a while, which excites me. Great work on this one.

    OMGGGGGGGGG this is even sexier than deadbolt (which I'm happy 2 say is still on my HD). I'm so glad you kept the same atmosphere 2. This map looks soo cool I actually Dl'ed befor posting. This map deserves way more attention than it's currently getting here at FH. Actually, my favorite part is how you turned the ugly symbols on the walls into a cool center tile type thing. Cant wait to run around it it =)

    @FearFlareThanks bro, run some game on it and tell me what you think.

    @LIGHTSOUT225
    Glad you like it man, the rocket ramp is actually my favorite part of the map too. I had a lot of fun forging that haha took hours and HOURS to get it smooth and find a design I liked and that flowed well for it. Tell me what you think when you get a chnace to run games.

    @A Fluffy Pillow
    Haha even sexier than Deadbolt?! No way! Haha well, maybe... ;) RUn some games on it and tell me what you think.

    @CaptnSTFU
    It's definitely new for MLG maps. I wanted to try something different. Glad you like it. Run games!

    I just finished getting a couple good games on this map, honestly it is one of the coolest maps I have played. This map has its own little feeling about it when you play it and i love how everything just looks so run down. I tried to make a map like this before, but failed. Sad to hear its your final map though, i might just keep this map forever.

    I LOVE this map. Everything about it is just fantastic. It plays wonderfully, out of the 2 games I got on it, and the aesthetics are brilliant. The bottom middle is my favorite part, mostly because it really gives that "broken down" effect. This is a map that will stay on my HD for a very long time.

    Amazing, feature worthy, 5/5, I can't find a single flaw. This map feels huge for being in the crypt, the second level could be a stand alone map, but there is all the space underneith it too. I'd love to see a competitive version of this map (basically just changing the custom power-up to a standard OS). Very nice work. A must DL.

    Thanks for the comments. I'm kind of disappointed how forge has really died down due to MW2. All the forums are pretty dead.
