    why hello there it has been a while...
    SinlessLedgend and I are here to show you something...
    THE HALO-LEDGEND MAP PACK!
    im not gonna talk much but thanks to Sinless...
    we can have a nice little description and pics so here you go
    "
    Sapphire is my first asymmetrical map that isn't something that you can find in a five year old's file share.
    The whole map has been colored blue to live up to it's name.

    It houses a total of five power weapons:
    a sniper, a camo powerup, a grenade launcher, an evade, and a drop shield.
    And yes they are balanced.
    Enough talk, on to the pics.

    Here is where the blue spawn, a nice hallway with a camo powerup

    Here is the base that the red team spawns in, it houses a lovely grenade launcher.

    The word 'Epic' is very heavily overused, so theres that and the fact that you misspelled 'Legend'. The maps themselves don't look to bad, I like your use of rocks and decorative elements.

    I really like how you incorporated water into both of your maps. Water gives maps a nice, clean visual appealing feature. Also, I like the simple aesthetics into both of your maps as well. The pole teleporter really caught my eye because it was very unique. The constructive critism I can give is to make sure your budget is okay to avoid screen lag.

    I'm liking the looks of sapphire- Some of the aesthetics look quite nice.

    I've played Azul quite a few times and the spawning was a bit off, but I hope you got rid of the spawn point gathering in the middle. The middle was quite open and didn't let players move around the map safely without crossing through the open ares. Other than that, I found there to be no FRL and the aesthetics were nice. I suggest, when you build a map like Azul next time, you get another controller and test split screen lag. I don't know if there will be any, but it's always worth a shot.

    Great work, guys.

    @eightball thank you and if you go above I think 4v4 you might start to get some FRL
    @wpcubs which map are you talking about?
    @splatterman I will fix those errors but which map are you talking about?
    @sinless I will fix that.

    I like the first map very nice aesthetics don't understand the cone thing(just for laughs I am guessing) I do see on problem in this map and it is in the 3rd pic the brigde seems to be a little high but besides that these are really nice maps.

    I enjoyed play testing Azul multiple times, I guess the teleporter was confusing at first, but if you play the map often, you get used to it, otherwise cool map on that one. The first map in your "Legend" Map Pack I really like this picture.
    [​IMG] I don't think I have ever seen that done, by extending the edge like that with some water for aesthetics, I really like that.

    I've played Azul several times over the past month or so, a few Slayer and CTF games here and there.

    A few issues I remember having were spawning and falling off the map.

    If I remember correctly, during a CTF game we spawned dynamically around the map, easily pulling flags or stopping the flag carrier simply because we didn't spawn on our half of the map. Not sure if you fixed this yet but you should, at least for CTF, Assault and other Gametypes. Slayer's fine for dynamic spawning though.

    I've also fallen off the map a few times, no big deal but I remember others doing the same as well. You might want to consider a few changes to prevent that.

    Also, I downloaded Azul and am currently looking at it in Forge. You don't have any respawn zones at all, you need respawn zones for certain objective gametypes to establish a form of map control. Also, looking at your budget and object count, Azul will probably screen lag often, though I don't remember much frame rate loss during the game. It'd definitely play better if lowered your object count, especially if you want to support 2 player split screen.

    well i decided with azul it would just be easier to just get this released, but if you play like 8v8 on this you are not gonna be happy with all the lag but next time i make a map i will see what i can do with the split screen stuff but i highly recomend playing this 3v3 with dmr starts, you wont see any screen lag. and i figured that spawn zones just make the spawning for me just more messed up, because i really am not good with spawns at all.
