Description:
To Dr. Brian Lopez AKA the Bropez,
Yo yo yo, I've got some effin stories to tell ya broham. I , Jake the rattlesnake Murphy, Supreme researcher of the most chill in our righteous nation of Brohemia, may have just found one of the greatest links to our history before the great bropocalypse of the 6900's. You get my angle dawg? I'm talkin about a temple. And not just any temple, but one of the famed temples of the ancient Broman god Broseidon. You know, Lord of the Brocean, he who gave the bro natty ice and threw the first and most epic kegger in existence at his bro sean's pad. Me and my brotastic research team uncovered this while we were blacked out from our customary post flight rager when we got to the chick filled and natty pumped beaches of historic Lake Chad for our Archeology field survey. It was truly an epic and surprisingly productive night bro, you shoulda been here instead a tryin to game that bro-ho from last saturday. Anyways my bropatriot, get you and some fine ladies out here so we can conduct a full brovestigation of this temple while keepin our thirsty thursday quota's up. We need someone well versed in broman archeology. The temple's got some crazy ass looking tech-stuff and extra construction beyond a normal temple. Mein broheim, if I didn't know better id say it looks like a hotwheels track or something. We'll be pregaming your arrival dudacus.

P.S. yo can you bring some more precision explosives? It appears we totes used up our initial supplies excavating most of the place.


Ok, well, now with the extra backstory out of the way, I give you guys my latest track, Broseidon's temple. This is a reimagining of a map I made a very long time a go called Pagoda. I've always enjoyed any game that had you racing on, around or near pyramids/temples, and I wanted to try and recapture some of that in a race track. I tried in halo 3 with Pagoda, but I was limited with my options and my forging wasn't at its greatest. With reach I decided to take another shot at it since the new forge was a lot more powerful, and this was the result. This map has several smooth banks and drift turns, as well as quite a few jumps, and even a "triangle forest" that makes the race much more interesting towards the end.

Pictures:

The Start




The ramp takes you to a drift turn, leading you back towards and into the temple




The inside of the temple




When you come out, you take a wide u-turn and then take a jump over the entrance to the temple





You move along the coastline past the temple to the start of the next turn




The banked turn around the rock




The bank ends in jump, which takes you to a short platform, where you then jump onto one of the outside ledges of the temple





At the other side of the temple there's a banked turn that takes you into a short tunnel that pops you back out onto the next highest ledge of the temple






You then head to a 180 banked turn that takes you around and up to the the last few parts of the map






The triangle forest. This place can make or break you so be careful




This jump takes you into a final turn into the teleporter that takes you back to the start






Q: What inspired your creation?
Like I mentioned above, I wanted to take another shot at doing a temple/pyramid themed racetrack since forge became a lot more awesome.

Q: How long did it take you to create this track?
It took me about 13 hours to create and decorate the track. Add another 5 or so of testing/tweaking. This was all done over the course of a week.


Q: What aspect of the track took longest to make?
I probably spent the most time making changes to the triangle forest. I didn't want it to be too difficult to get through without slowing down, but i still wanted it to feel challenging.

 

Thanks for the suggestions t4k shadow, and thanks meltyourtv about the backstory. I'm glad to hear suggestions for improvements.
