    OK so i was playing Pac Man and thought, wouldn't it be fun to run around this maze as a Spartan? The middle room where the Ghosts would start holds the rocket launcher. Right now its really only optimized for slayer, but i'm looking at optimizing for other game types, I think Oddball would be great on this map. should be great for some team death match or all out frenzy of eight running the maze. Please let me know what you think!


    UPDATE!!

    I took the juggernaut approach for the first update here. Changed the room in the middle to house all the spawn points except the yellow, with one way shields. download the game variant and the juggernaut defaults to yellow, and only the juggernaut has access to the overshield, to make it like a power pellet. Hope you all have fun!

    You should use the Pac V2 map, with the Pacman game variant, I changed the above links so they should be good.

    Oh and here is some vid of the new changes

    Oh, and the portals work to just like it would in pac man, run off one side show up on the other. Have fun!!

    This is funny lol. I think you should've made this above the hangar/coliseum so that the ground is flat though. And for the middle part (where ghosts in pacman spawn), you should make it a # shape and put a spawn point in each of the sections of the tic-tac-toe symbol (except for the middle) and surround it with one-way shields. That way, when the players die they respawn in the middle just like the real pacman game!

    cool map. A way to make it even better would be to set up a juggernaut gametype where the juggernaut is forced color to yellow (pacman) and everyone else is force colored to the pacman ghost colors

    This map doesn't belong in the competitive maps category. Its aesthetic or maybe a casual map. Please read this thread before posting any further.

    thanks for the suggestions I like the juggernaut idea. I was also thinking of some sort of 5 player game where each guy gets a turn as the "ghost" and tries to score as many kills as you can. still thinking about that one. As for the ground, I thought about making it look more "authentic" with real floors, but I thought it would play better with the changes in terrain, thats why i put it there instead of a flat ground. I could try it in the hanger see if it works out better.

    As for being aesthetic, I really meant this ma to be competitive, I think it plays well. It just happens to be a map from another game. I dont think its different then remaking a map from another shooter.

    Thanks again for the comments, I'll see what else I can come up with.

    Here is your map it was built on halo 3 it is meant for pacmans skull it was also on bungie favourites it is a great game variant and map maybe you should try making your own version of a pacman map and use this type of gv. Overall I loved that map so I must love this map but try to set it up for a game variant like Pacmans Skull. Here is a link for the halo 3 version of this map and gv hope this helps you out!!

    I consider this competitive. Just because it tilts the scale between fun and seriousness towards fun doesn't mean it can't be competitive. Let it stay here. Love the idea!
