never played much of gears but the center of the map seems to have a lot of cover that is highly vulnerable to the balcony up top. makes me wonder if the map is just each team camping there spawns. looks like a legit remake from what i can tell though. goodjob
Yeah I know what you mean and lack of cover in Gears is subsidised with the fact you can go into cover on most of the walls. Obviously this isnt an option in Halo and I didn't want to start adding stuff that isnt there on the original.
Quick update - Managed to get on to the first page for most downloaded maps (Jacinto) and for game variants (Gears Classic) so I'm very pleased with the positive reception the map has had so far. Currently the Map has over 10,000 downloads and the Variant almost 5,000.
Glad to hear it bro, but don't necro post/bump your map just for that. On to the map. It does remind me a lot of Gears, but the lack of cover will dramatically change the game play, so maybe just make it a little higher to compensate Reach's game play. I'm gonna need to download it and see if it actually plays well, so I'll update this post as soon as possible.
Speaking as someone who has played a lot of Gears 2, all I can say is wow! That looks incredible, I can't wait to have a run around it, great job.
