silver lagoon Silver lagoon is my first 1v1/2v2 layout I have created on reach; Silver lagoon has actually proven to be my first successful small competitive layout out of both Halo 3 and Reach due to its well ballanced layout as well as weapon options. I love the new natural formation pieces bungie supplied us with. It gives us so much more to beautify our maps with, creating better aesthetics as well as to create islands and hill formations such as these which makes Silver lagoon a slight challenge to traverse on cause of its rough terrain one fun way to get across is using my little rock islands I placed strategically so that you may have 6 easy access ways. 3 on each side there by making this map consistantly flowing at all times as I mentioned above, the weapon selection is well ballanced and timed so that players are not over powered at short notice. From my experience, it seems to me that the needle rifle can be powerful with its automatic capability but seems to be overpowered against a marksman DMR user therefore i have decided to place 2 needle rifles with 2 clips and 30sec spawn, one on each side: red location blue location From that decision being made, I placed only 1 DMR with 2 clips and 30sec spawn, directly centered and across the mainland so that it can be easily accessed from both sides and whoever obtains it can use the distance to pick off the other(s). There are snipers to be found in the towers. Each have just the main clip with 120sec spawn. going through the center you will find two usefull weapons. One directly cenetered you will find the plasma pistol and a little more to the red side, the needler which spawns in 60sec. and has 2 clips last but not least, the rocket launcher. You will find this bad boy up and center of the catwalk. Unfortunately for you rocket happy users, it only has its main clip....and spawns in a whopping 180sec. So use it wisely and accurately Other little things such as assault rifles and pistols, you may find the assault rifles at the base of the towers as well as the Health stations. Pistols are in the mid balcony of each tower. grenades you will find well placed, each pair consist of 1 frag and 1 plasma. Hope to hear some feedback soon. Thankyou for your time, hope you enjoy my latest map [br][/br]Edited by merge: its kinda hard to have people view without a intro pic. why wont it load? I even uploaded a smaller verision and it wont even upload that
This looks pretty sweet! My only concern is wether or not walking would be an issue. Rocks have lots of lips and such, so that could effect your gameplay. I'll be sure to download and check it out. All and all, great map.
Yessir it is a little challenging however if you find just the right angles in the rocks it will be much easier to traverse. Other than thay, there are the grasshopper players out there who do nothing BUT jump in their gameplay so I believe they shouldnt have a problem at all playing on here XD
The map is very natural and I love that...all the metalic maps can get annoying after a while...very nice aesthetics...I wonder how the rocky terran can affect the gameplay though...the rocks can sometimes map the pathway hard to travel and I would like to know if thats the case here...
not so much, your first initial run through getting used to the terrain you will find it a little challenging and feel inconvenienced by a dip or so when trying to get away. I have recieved some advice back which im considering fixing and thats the back path way and middle isle getting to the DMR since those are said to be the roughest spots
