Amazing Mound Download [floatleft][/floatleft] Amazing Mound started out as another pointless project, To duplicate the Gigantic dune that dominates gameplay in Middle Tier Sandbox maps. Then Coincidentally AceofSpades0707 and Noxiw Showed me a game that I thought would be Horrible (but is really Fan-Freakin-Tastic!) This Amazing game is Amazing Bomb (Be sure to check it out because if you don't, you won't understand anything in this Thread). But I'll copy pasta some important info about the game anyways. The bomb will spawn at the beginning of the game and after each score in the middle of the map on one of the three to five bomb spawn points placed across the center. In the game, once you grab the bomb, you bring it back to your own base to plant it. This may seem odd, but we wanted to keep Amazing Bomb as true to the original as possible. The bomb will detonate immediately so other players, beware. Now, trust us when we say that your gravity hammer is your best friend. It can be used for offensive and defensive tactics alike. Your rocket launcher is your deadliest weapon. Get used to other players speed, lead your shots, and you'll be able to dominate the battle field. But watch out for grenades flying through the air! They can be hazardous in Amazing Bomb when placed in the right hands. The best part about this gametype is that it can be played with any number of players! That's right, you could play a simple 1v1 on smaller maps all the way up to extremely chaotic 8v8 games on the huge maps. Well, anyways, here's some gameplay [bungievid]109996801[/bungievid] Now that (hopefully) you know how the game is played, here are some Pictures! Pictures Standard Overview View of the Mound Overview Number 2 Scoring Now scoring on this map happens one of two ways, by jumping off of the top of the Mound, or taking the Man Cannon off to the side. Now Both are easy to score on, but both are also Easy to Hammer Squeeze on also. The Bomb plant zone alternates in the way the plant points are facing, that way you can score on both sides! and there are three, because the Heights of the mounds varies where One point doesn't cut it. Placement of the plant points. Side view Man Cannon scoring Man Cannon scoring Number two Man Cannon scoring Number three Bomb Spawn Points In this map there are a total of Three Bomb spawn points on this map (That's the normal number for amazing bomb maps) All of them are neutral, and when a Bomb spawns it is Random where it spawns. These spawns are... Blue side spawn Middle spawn And Red side spawn Miscellaneous stuff Now Im going to wrap it up with some Miscellaneous stuff... If you get Launched behind the mound, there are teleporters behind it... That Bring you to the Front of the Mound... The Artificial Hill is actually BIGGER than the opposing mound. Most all of the Objects have been used to make this map (I think I have 2 objects left...) and I also have $20. I didn't use any OLN in the Mound, but spawns are OLN.

OH MY GAWWWD! That mound is gorgeous! I spy some sturctures from the mantle. Erg... I dont have silver light. Ill download and try the game out for myself. I spent a couple seconds just staring at the mound XD
OMG... that video...it started off and in like that first 20 seconds or so you couldnt see IT... and i was all like 'is this it?'... and then the camera pans to The Mound and i was just like 'I'm gonna need a new pair of pants'
It is about time you got around to posting this Meta, seriously. This is always a fun Amazing Bomb map to play on. I hope others enjoy it as much as I do.
This looks very fun meta. I dont think that I have ever seen something quite this big built on sandbox, did you use all of your items to make that? Because it sure looks like it. Every map I see a begin to play this game more and more, great job!
That's the damn biggest thing I've ever seen! I'm glad you decided to join the Amazing Bomb fever. This looks like it'll bring many a good time during the wait for Reach.
Im not gonna lie, that mound looks super smexy (thats what she said?) I think this is a pretty creative idea and I like it. I will DL for wins
I'm not a big fan of Amazing Bomb, but I always have fun on this map. You did a great job with the mound and making Sandbox symmetrical. It's pretty open and simple, but that has created the best Amazing Bomb gameplay by any map thus far.
Maybe not quite to this extreme, but I had roughly the same reaction upon watching the video. That mound is rather stunning. Your forging abilities never cease to amaze me Meta. From your L4D-Rooftop Finale remake (ah... nostalgia) to the brilliant and witty Fronk, you've broken the mold several times over and that has gotten you well deserved recognition. I can't wait to see more of your work, and I'm always up for testing.
