The Best of Gears of War - but Better All Created by Rest in Pieces From hearing about Gears of War 3, it managed to inspire me to create this map pack, featuring 5 new maps, Re-imagined from Popular Gears of War 1 and 2 maps. Despite holding back on MLGpro, I am pleased to present these 5 maps. Playing them in the past GoW games allowed me to remember today how much potential they had for Reach. However, they did need some changes for adaption. Some underwent alot; some little. Considering they are re-imagined, they have different names. Anyways, with concise descriptions, here they are: Waterway [Canals from GoW 1] Gametypes: TS, CTF, HILL Relatively popular map back in the day, with water running through the bottom, and 3 bridges connecting LOS with another (Middle bridge blocks the main LOS). Underwent Major changes Power Weapons: -Rockets (Bottom mid ledge) -Sniper (At purple) Screens: Download Waterway Estate [Mansion from GoW 1] Gametypes: TS, CTF, HILL Very popular and enjoyable map back then. Includes Outdoor and Indoor gameplay. -Underwent Minor changes indoor; Major Changes outdoor Power Weapons: -Rocket Launcher (outside, middle platform on the end) -Grenade Launcher (inside, middle/up top) Screens: Indoor Outdoor Download Estate Sector [Pavilion from GoW 2] Gametypes: TS & CTF Not as popular map, but great layout to work with. The resemblence is still there, but underwent the most change out of every map i re-imagined. It is an extreme mix between Pavilion and Construct. Power Weapons: -Rocket Launcher (Bottom, at the end) -Grenade Launcher (Top Mid) Screens: Download Sector Bloodbound [Blood Drive from GoW 2] Gametypes: TS & CTF Probably one of the best Gears of War maps out there. It had a decent layout, but it needed some help. The bases are much more open, the nade room is open and jumpable, and slight other changes happened. Underwent Medium level changes Power Weapons: -Grenade Launcher (Bottom Mid towards bases) -Evade [not really a power weapon] (bottom mid towards nade rooms) Screens: Base Overview Download Bloodbound last and HELL not the least Rust [Ruins from GoW 2] Gametypes: TS & CTF The map was so good in Gears 2 that it underwent the least change for Halo reach. The starting spawns aren't as dead-endish, and a few other changes occured. Power weapons: -Grenade Launcher (Top Mid bridge) -2 Snipers (Same location as GoW 2) Screens: Download Rust All of these Maps were enjoyable to make, so I hope to hear they are enjoyable to play. If not, please leave feedback!
Wow, it looks like you've put a lot of hard work and effort into making these 5 (is that right?) maps, and they all look pretty awesome. Normally a map pack has three maps in it, but you've taken it one step further and created five very good looking maps. I never played the GOW series, so I can't comment on the accuracy, but what I can say is how good they look. I havn't had a chance to get a game on any of these maps, but needless to say, I definatelty will and I shall leave you with some more feedback when I do. 9/10
Accuracy wasn't a factor in making these, but scaling was. A couple maps have near pin-point scaling (but I had no intention of being exact). The rest I just went through with it w/o any consideration of those. Anyways, thanks
Wow this really looks great im giving this a tentative 8/10 untill I play on it. As a fan of Gears I can instantly see the similarities with these maps. I'm going to try it with a custom slayer game similar to gears (no jumping, evade, one life)
Hey Rest in Pieces i know this might be slighty off topic but i made a kickass remake/inspired map and i have a gametype for GoW if you want to mix and match maps ^_^. (BTW this is Commander Null)
if you wanna mix it up, add me if ya like. Most of these maps are extremely different, but it doesn't mean it won't work
