Hello ForgeHub Community, My name is Pat, and this is my first map posted on ForgeHub. This map has taken a lot of time and effort to complete, and I truly hope you all appreciate it. My initial idea was probably an overused one, a Human research facility on the halo instillation in which forgeworld exists. Where I hope that I've strayed from the pack is in my making the map not a slayer, swat, or BTB map, but rather an Invasion map. As the Red Team, you play a Squad of Spartans assigned to protect a research laboratory, which focuses on various technological developments. The main focus of this research facility was a new form of slipstream space travel, which is highly covetted knowledge. However, they also have a weapons research lab as well. As the Blue Team, you play a squad of Sanghelli sent to steal a Data Core from this Human Research facility, and take it back to your Covenant brethren. As the Sanghelli, you start where your phantom left you, on a walkway outside of lab 1. From there, you must take a bomb inside of the first lab, and use it to disable their longdistance communications array, preventing them from calling for help. After that, you'll make your way to a man cannon, and then to an elevator platform. go up the elevator, and you'll find yourself on your way to lab 2. You must hold lab 2 long enough to disarm the shielding array so the core can be taken. You'll then exit lab 2 and find your way down a long set of stairs. make your way into the only building, where you'll find a previously shielded Data Core. From there, you must take your Data Core to an Orbital Transmission Array, which has been captured by the Covenant. Make it to the Array with the Data Core and you win. Some info: There is every Armor Ability available by tier 3, except for Jetpack, for obvious reasons. There are two Weapon Vending Machines, 1 in Research Lab 1, and the other just outside Research Lab 1. The first contains a Shotgun, the second a rocket launcher. To use the vending machine, throw a grenade in the opening on the top. There are also some other working gadgets. There is a one way elevator to take you to the second lab. There is also a one way escalator to take you back to lab 1. The initial humans start with only a Magnum, but can use a frag to purchase a shotgun. Research Facility- Orbital Transmission Array- {inactive} {Active} Hope you all like it, I'd appreciate any and all feedback! [br][/br]Edited by merge: Bumpage, no feedback? =]
Well it's a good looking map, but I think you should put some more detail into the Orbital Transmission Array. Just my opinion.
I really like your satellite dishes and some of your other aesthetic touches and windows but I agree that the Orbital Transition Array could use some more detail. The name could also be a bit more original but for the most part the map looks cool. Good work.
I can definitely work on the name. And yeah, I agree about the orbital transmission array. I was saving about $1000 of my budget just in case there was mistakes that needed to be fixed... I suppose this counts, lmao. Thanks for the feedback, I really appreciate it [br][/br]Edited by merge: Uhhh, I'm not sure if double posting is allowed... but I just finished updating my map. I'll be posting updated pictures soon.
