"High above the gorge lies a bridge to the remains of forgotten places." Escalade is a map I've been working on for a couple of weeks now. It's main purpose at first was to play all the game types in the Big Team Battle playlist, but now it is compatible with every default game type on disk. It is even set up to play invasion, invasion slayer and infection. There are minor differences on the map when you play it. On every game type the map is the same except for regular invasion. There will be added structures to that and vehicles and weapons will be different. You can see what weapons and vehicles are for what in the example below. Default shows how many weapons are on the regular map and invasion shows how many are on the invasion map. The first half of pictures are of the regular map the other half is the invasion. At the bottom of the post there is another link to the map and a video fly through of it. If there is anything that needs to be changed or fixed just leave a comment telling me what it is. weapon - 2(Default), 1(Invasion) vehicle - 5(Default), 2(Invasion) Weapons: Assault Rifle - 0, 1 DMR - 2, 1 Magnum - 2, 1 Shotgun - 2, 0 Sniper - 2, 1 Spartan Laser 1, 0 Frag Grenade 4, 3 Concussion Rifle - 2, 0 Focus Rifle - 0, 1 Needle Rifle 2, 1 Needler - 2, 0 Plasma Pistol - 2, 1 Plasma Repeater - 2, 1 Plasma Grenade - 4, 3 Vehicles: Banshee - 2, 1 Falcon - 0, 1 Ghost - 2, 1 Mongoose - 4, 2 Scorpion - 0, 1 Warthog, Default - 2, 1 Wraith - 2, 1 Pictures: Overviews - Red Base Overview Red Spawn Center Overview Blue Base Overview Blue Spawn Action - Bluegoose Assault Cross The Bridge Plunder the Base Push back The Assault When fighting air you need a big gun Maybe something bigger That's just what I needed Invasion Pictures: Phase One(Gate on the bridge is not on default map, used for phase 1) Action Phase 1 Phase Two(Gate is not on default map) Action Phase 2 Phase Three Base is locked till phase Two is over Phase Three Action Phase 3 Bring the Core here to win the game(Structure is not there on default map) I've worked hard on this map and done lots of testing. So I hope you all enjoy my map. Map Download Escalade Fly Through [bungievid]11096749[/bungievid]
Looks alright from the pics. The aesthetics and architecture are kind of bland, but the gameplay may make up for that. On that note, having a bridge between Montana and Alaska has been done to death.
You need to change the thumbnail picture to a non-edited screenshot. Forum policy. I will give you 24 hours to do so before I remove it. Thanks!
this map obviously plays well, the bases are constrocted well, but you could add some more cover, and smaller structures as checkpoints.
