Hello everyone, this is my first map I'm submitting on the site, so just give me the regular. A little info about my forging.....I'm as rookie as it gets. I've made 3 maps before this one and have only been forging since July. But enough about me, lets get down to business and get some critisism. This map was inspired by Halo CE Campaign mission "Halo". Inspired by, not a recreate of. It was orginally intended for Invasion only, but then I thought it'd be better to give it a more competitive side as well. Each game mode has it's own unique gameplay. Not in a sense of "well, duh! Invasion is nothing like One Flag!" But more like, it's plays completely different and uses the map in a different way. But you'll notice this as you play it in a variety of gametypes. Invasion Weapons: DMR x2 Plasma Launcher x1 Warthog x1 Rocket x1 Focus Rifle x1 Banshee x1 Shotgun x1 Needle Rifle x2 Sniper x1 Concussion Rifle x1 Team Only Weapons: DMR x4 Concussion Rifle x2 Warthog x2 Rocket x2 Spiker x2 Falcon x2 Shotgun x2 Plasma Pistol x2 Ghost x2 Sniper x2 Needle Rifle x4 Mongoose x2 FFA Only Weapons: DMR x4 Spartan Laser x1 Warthog x1 Rocket x2 Concussion Rifle x1 Shotgun x2 Needler x2 Sniper x2 Needle Rifle x4 Infection Weapons: Map Default (weapons/vehicles) Weapon Pickup: Disabled Vehicle Use: None Alright, now that that is out of the way...Here are some pics. Enjoy! These give a basic overview of the map. Invasion Bomb Spawn My wife planting the bomb at Objective 1 Objective Alpha phase 2 Objective Bravo phase 2 Unfortunately I don't have a pic of the core spawn, but this is the "extraction zone" (I know, it's supposed to be red, but I was too lazy to fix it! =]) One Bomb Defense One Bomb Offense One Flag Offense One Flag Defense Action Shots: Special Thanks to my wife Jennifer for helping me test play and supporting my crazy habbits.
I like it <.< it looks really fun and i really wana play on it xD. and yay for the wife! lol anyway ill give it a DL and try it out Kudos
Wow for a newer forger I'm very impressed. The halo combat evolved inspiration is noticeable right off the bat. And that forerunner tower is beautiful. If I were you I'd make it a base a possibly make a btb map with another base similar to it. Overall a very nice map. Good work!
Please can you line return each of your images. The map post is stretched beyond time and space and I can't view half of Forge Hub!
I was actually thinking of doing a map similar to this. I'd advise using peices like large braces, or even colesium peices instead of using Grids. I'd also suggest spreading out large peices like barricades, and maybe put some sandbags around them to complement them. Finally, I'd maybe suggest using block peices for the Delta, but God knows it looks over 9000 times better than taking the easy way out with a Collesium Window. The map looks great, I just like to give a lot of constructive critisism. I'll be sure to DL.
Thanks. I just realized something, I didn't mention before that I have two gametypes in my fileshare for this map. Invasion is Operation Firestorm and Infection is The Flood.
Sorry, about that, but I inserted the images without spacing even. Not sure how to go about changing that to make it smaller.... [br][/br]Edited by merge: I used the grid because there wasn't a big enough one way shield to stretch across the area. The "beams" are Forerunner tech that support said shield (Or at least my imagination seemed to think so!) Which is why the first objective is to take out those shields and get on with the game. =] I do like the critisism. Helps me make things perfect....Assuming I can reach that. As for the Delta, I don't follow. Can you be more specific? I did think of spreading the barricades, but I was waiting to test some gameplay with more than just my wife and I haven't had the time with our new son. That's when I heard about this site from a buddy of mine. He said that people will test it for me, and I can fix things accordingly. Which again, thank you all for your imput and downloads! [br][/br]Edited by merge: Seeing as BTB is my favorite (in a 3 way with FF and Invasion) I'll think about that. I already have an idea of where to put it.
