    Fruity

    Fruity is my first real attempt at a 1v1/2v2 map. Its symmetrical in two different directions. Made up of 3 octagons, Fruity has 2 stories, with some small height differentials on both levels. The map itself is mostly enclosed with small openings to the outdoors, such as the bridges on the outside, as well as the roof being open. The main structure of it is complete, with some tweaks to be made. The spawn system and weapons have yet to be started, however.




    Fruity - 1v1

    The gametype it is to be played with is already in my File Share, with my other 1v1 map, Charm. The gametype is titled "Erupt - 1v1," for it is to be used with all my (Erupt's) 1v1 maps in the future. Although Fruity itself isn't on my File Share.




    Now here are some pictures...




    The middle room. The light in the middle acts as a lift and can easily take you to the top floor. I like to think of it like the middle lift in Sword Base.

    One of the two bases, they are symmetrical. And yes that is a custom powerup, although I did say that I hadn't started the weapon placement. That is the only placed equipment/gun.

    Keep an eye out for it in the Reach Competitive Maps!

    And ideas? Comments? Or anyone who wants to test it?

    Well, the map looks pretty sweet, the center piece is also a nice touch. But some more pictures would be appreciated so that we can get a full mental image of the map.

    Thanks. I originally took three or four screenshots to post, but only two were on my File Share when I went on Bungie. Strange? And I can't update right now because I cannot get on xbl. I might just leave it at two screenshots though. As this is a preview. And I don't truly want it to reveal the entire map. It will be posted in a day or two. Then you can download and I will have more pictures. So be ready!

    You too! I've been suffering that problem alot, the only solution I found was to take the screenshot twice.

    Sweet, I'll see it than. BTW, love the 1v1 and 2v2 maps.

    I'm to the point where I use my brother's, friend's and cousin's File Share for screenshots, because mine is filled with maps/gametypes. So it's hard to do that. Does it work if they are just your "recent screenshots," or must they be in your File Share? I just thought of that. I must pursue that.


    Me too. And I find it only logical, for rarely will I get a custom game with more than four people. Plus in my own head I started a little rivalry with NeXn :). Anyways, thanks!

    I think its the same with recent shots because I'm having the problem with them and thats how I do it for screenshots. Like every other picture actually gets sent to bungie.net it seems.

    Anyways, I like the name, Fruity. Seems someone has seen or at least heard of my fruit themed names for my maps coming up... Anywho, it looks cool, and I like the idea of a light for a lift.

    This looks sexy. Did you get inspiration from Hex? Just curious, because I can see resemblances from the pictures. Edit: haha just read that we apparently have a rivalry. I love some competition. Can't wait to test out your 1v1 maps.

    Not that I have actually seen Hex. It wasn't even started yet in the Map Preview, was it? But yes, I kinda did. And not that my maps will be able to be compare to yours. :)

    @Rook: Yes, it's from your map names. I went into the chatbox and said "Map Names to do with orange?" And I heard Tangerine, to which I said no, because you used it. And then I came out with Fruity. So i must thank you for that. :)

    @Everyone else: (Forgot to multiquote and didn't wanna rewrite everything.) I am going to release this with my other two 1v1 maps, Savior and HD, which are nearing ready to post here, in a sort of "map pack" thing. They will be first posted here, along with this map, all in one preview. Then to the Tester's Guild. THEN to Reach Competitive Maps. So it might be about a week. Not that anyone is truly that anxious to see my maps. haha
