HydroZ 89 | Hi Im Erupt Hey everybody, here goes my first thread, show-casing my first map I'm proud enough to post. First time for everything, right? Anyways, this is a co-forge with someone you may know from around here, he has won a FHF and he just happens to be my older cousin. His name is Alex, or as you better know him, Erupt. Anyways, this map started out as a map he claimed, when he saw it, to be too small to play a game of 1/2 vs 1/2. So he helped me expand it, and in that process changed a little bit of the existing part, almost ran out of budget, and helped me with the spawns and weapons. Then somewhere along that line, it became a co-forge. Cerulean got it's name from maps like Veridian, Atticus's MLG map, and Vermillion, Reflex's unreleased map. Is anyone seeing a pattern? Probably not, but me and Erupt used to play Pokemon, and those are both names of cities from those old games, as is Cerulean. The map is symmetrical, and as of right now is only set up for Team Slayer. We plan on it playing Territories, CTF, Oddball, Assault, and some others. So now you can, sit back, relax, and look at some picture(s) while you scroll down the rest of the page. =) A basic overview of the map. The new bottom gold room. Bet ya can't guess what the floor's made out of? One of the two "sniper towers." And that's all I've got for ya because Bungie's recent screenshot thingy fails. But here's a little bit more information on the map... Weapons & Equipment Weapon/How Many/Spawn Time/Spare Clips DMR/12/30/2 Needle Rifle/4/60/2 Magnum/3/30/2 Plasma Pistol/1/90/- Rocket Launcher/1/180/- Concussion Rifle/2/120/1 Energy Sword/1/180/- Sniper Rifle/2/150/0 Shotgun/2/150/0 Overshield/1/180/- Plasma Grenade/4/45/- Frag Grenade/8/45/- Health Pack/2/30/- Anyways, thanks for your time!
Despite me playing like complete crap, I thought the map was quite good. I'm sure it'll turn out great since you're friends with all us testers. MattKestrel's going to post the feedback sometime tonight.
Okey dokey, I've posted the feedback in the testers guild feedback forum. Was really a big fan of the map, some polishing and it'll go down a treat.
Yeah, thanks Matt. That was our first test so I'm glad it went down as well as it did. Lol, yepp. Hydro doesn't get on here much, though. I helped him a lot with his threads, too. So don't expect to see him replying to much. Basically, I'm running this thread.
Alright, we changed the weapons drastically. We changed/moved power weapons to increase flow. We got rid of a few unnecessary objects. We added tons of DMRs cuz everyone said they couldn't find any. And we messed with the spawn system a small bit. So now hopefully it works a little bit better. The OP is already updated with all these changes and we will try to get a video up sometime soon, along with more pictures.
The OP has been updated with new pictures and the weapon list of the newest version of the map (2.2). We are now starting to test the map more seriously, so expect it up within a few weeks.
