Giant Flaming Pit of Lava Remake of the classic Marathon 2: Durandal map, for FFA Slayer and Oddball This map is as close to faithful as I could get it; of course the lava had to be replaced with killballs, and the limit to lights is too small for the full red colour effect. Other than that, I feel that this remake is quite accurate. Here are some screenshots of various areas: Inside the Pit/Needler Spawn (There are two of these) The elevator: Once again, due to the physics of Reach, this elevator only goes up, unlike the original, which went up and down. Now for some action shots... Thanks to playtesters Afro Monkey FX and Impeachable Download Map
FINALLY! A TRUE MARATHON FAN. I have been waiting for somebody to remake this forever! Btw, what did you replace the flamethrower with? And this the only true remake i have seen.
What you could do is use a grav lift for the elevator, that way you can jump down, and then use one way shields and kill boundaries to make it look more like lava.
Actually, I didn't replace any weapons other than the Assault Rifle (Needler). In my playthroughs I didn't come across a flamethrower, but I suppose the plasma rifle takes the place of no weapon at all. And YES, MARATHON FANS UNITE! lol [br][/br]Edited by merge: That's actually a great idea. I did run out of shield doors, but that could actually help out quite a bit. Thanks a lot, I do plan on making a V2 after hearing some feedback.
The flamethrower is in one of the tunnels that are in the lava, but i suppose it is impossible since you cant go through killballs alive. Also, do you think it would possible to forge one of the survival maps? like make enemies a little bit tougher each time they die
Ah, I see. Well actually, I just put a Needler in each tunnel, but... There is a way to go through Killballs without dying; simply place it behind (or under/over/next to) a wall, and walking through the part coming out of the wall doesn't kill you. It's hard to explain, so an example: On this mpa, the Killballa are UNDER the floor, so walking on the floor won't kill you. And I didn't know the flamethrower was there; when I make the V2 I'll probably think of something to replace the 2nd Needler with that can be closer to a flamethrower. As for Survival, I can't say I've ever played it... Sorry.
