    High Arch

    About: High Arch is more then just a remake, in fact I really don't like to think of it as a remake but as a "Sister" of our beloved Halo 3 map Narrows. The design is similar in many ways but will is own feel. The map is a little shorter then the original Narrows but has three levels instead of two. As said, it could be looked at as a remake, but has a lot of changes.


    Map Intel: This map has may game types installed are ready to go. The map has been tested but could always use more testing and fixing. Comments and ideas to help improve the map are welcome as I like feedback. The map, took about 13 hours of straight build time, 4-5 hours of game setup, spawn mapping, and weapon placement. 2-3 Hours was spent testing game play, finding flaws, or areas that could cause unfair game play.

    I love it. Especially where it's located. It's like a non-snowy version of Narrows! The only think I don't like is the Armor Lock pickups. If this map can be played with normal slayer, then why must there be AL? I would put at least one OS instead. BTW, do those lifts give you fall damage? Because all the Narrows remakes HEM HEM 'Sister' maps I've played give you fall damage. Even if they do, it's not that big of a deal.

    Good Job. 4.9/5 +0.1(for making it your version).

    No fall damage, I worked really hard to make sure that there was no fall damage. And yeah I just thought of that armer lock... As said, few things to fix. First map! :) Glad you like it.

    Fall damage isn't hard to fix, you just have to angle the mancannon down 5 degree. :/


    This is pretty good for a first map. Best of luck in your future endeavors.

    Nice take on Narrows. Good looking, well made map. I hate armorlock though.
    I wish Bungie would make a Halo 3 map pack for REACH with just a few of the best Halo 3 maps.

    A good remake you could always do is an octagon or a griftball map. Plus I made an octagon map in my fileshare and turned out great. It's a good, quick map to make and you can make it so many ways
