    The Cube

    Created by Trevyn R.

    Map Description
    Initially inspired by a Borg Cube. I altered the design to have a more 2v2, "base battle" feel to it. Very small, but great for FFA and small team fights.

    This map is 99% symmetrical, so it should be great for any CTF games, and also supports a very intense KOTH! Please give it a shot and let me know what I can fix or make better. Thanks.

  2. This map has an interesting design to it but the walls look a little too... bland. But then again, that shouldn't be a problem since it is a cube. Is the Middle Section supposed to have that intended Bridge? Gameplay wise, how would it work out with only one way to get to either side?

    By the way, can you please include a weapons list? Are there any cover once the players reach the other side?

    The bridge in the middle is a sort of "Safe Spot" with shield doors on either side, but to make it more interesting, i left tiny little holes at the top where a nade can be chucked through. You can jump the pit, so the bridge is not the only option for getting across, but I wanted the middle of the map to be an intense battle ground, so I didn't really want to add any teleporters or connections between the two bases. You gotta fight your way to the other side.
    And as far as the weapon list, I will update as soon as possible. I'm still pretty new at this ForgeHub stuff so I'm still learning everything I need to post.
    Thanks for the feedback though, let me know if you DL and give it a shot.
     
  4. Interesting Concept. I like the idea of having a nade being able to be tossed through the top. I just noticed that the middle section was crossable jumping wise. Good post though, I congratulate you on getting this right.

    I'm pretty sure that there is some rule against pulling on people's nerd strings and making a Star Trek themed map. This doesn't really look borg-y, but I do like it. You have actually just inspired me to make a borg map lol.

    Anyways, I do like the design, but I think that a wee bit more cover would be nice.

    Yeah, I'm a huge Star Trek junkie. I know it doesn't look Borg, but like I said that was only the initial inspiration for the map. I felt like a Borg ship wouldn't be the best Halo map. (Maybe a little too cramped) If you do make one, I would love to try it out though! I was also thinking that The Enterprise could be a cool map with teleporters for turbolifts and such to take you around the different decks of the ship.
