    WINDWARD


    [​IMG]



    This is a full remake of my favorite map from Halo ODST "Windward". Reason why: I wanted to make a remake of a map, Windward looks very symetric and perfect size to forge. The remake turn out to be better than expected! I miss some aesthretic pieces in the map because of the budget. I wasn`t shore if i should use color effect to make it look more like the original map but than the gameplayturn out to be worse! The map is not comepletely symetric but i works great with temas! The map has rocket with 180 spawn time with no clips and sniper with one extra clip!
    BTW. It`s not possible to enter the falcon::!!::



    Weapon
    4x Frag granate
    4x Plasma granate
    2x Plasma pistol
    2x DMR
    2x Needler rifle
    1x Rocket launcher
    1x Sniper Rifle
    1x Concussion rifle


    Here is a picture of the map. (The effect is not used in the map!)

    This is realy good! But maybe patch those places which people can hide in outside of the map?

    Downloaded. Loved it. It was one of my favorite maps from ODST too. Here's a suggestion from my personal opinion:

    Take out the falcons, you can't use them, you can use the extra budget to put in more crates, like the original had. Cover is sparse sometimes on the landings over the ramp downstairs. Also, it needs more weapons, this actually is a fairly large map thus put a decent amount of weapons in it. For example, magnums, plasma repeaters, AR's, maybe a grenade launcher, plasma repeaters/rifles and certainly a needler and a grav hammer. How could you remake THIS map with no needlers or grav hammers. I got soooo many killionaires with the grav hammer on this map in ODST. If you did want to introduce vehicular play into the map, put some banshees down that are actually usable, or maybe some shade turrets.

    It's a good start, maybe even a great start. But it's a few versions away from AMAZING. I for one am looking forward to the evolution of this map.

    Thankx for an awsome comment :D, you might have a good idea with adding more weapon`s to the map but didn`t want to add any crates because the are blocking to much of the map. The map is unfortunately to small for banshees. I would add some turrets to the map but didn`t find a good placement for it.

    I haven't dl the map, but I agree with echo. It needs more crates for cover. For example, your last 2 comparison shots. Plus it would feel more like the original. And IMO, I think you should delete the falcons and add GLs in place. Oh, and definitely a hammer!

    Nice work overall though, I'm very impressed with your forging skill.

    Oh, and how many more crates can you use exactly? I would try and use them all up.

    Add more cover and weapons to your map. Since it's not possible to Forge a Firefight map, this needs to be a Competitive map instead.

    By far the best attempt at a Windward remake I have yet seen, but without the crates and weapons, it's just a 7/10. If you can add those and remove the ridiculous and unneeded things, such as the Falcons, I'd give it a 9/10. Windward always did look like it could play well in a competitive match, and now we'll see about that.
