    Hello everyone Slashed here with another new map which atm is still quite secret, its called 'Pipe-Line' and im going to give you guys a little information about it so here we go,
    basicaly its a water pipe plant which is in the middle of reconstruction after being attacked but before it got finished reach fell along with this plant, now the events of halo 3 are over it is back in human control and the plant is back, it has been reconfigured onto the UNSC Infinty for training excoersises for the new spartan 4's before they go to battle to find and help the chief.

    okay so that is the sort of in depth description of the map, before i release some teaser pics of this new map im going to tell you all what it looks like...... well as best i can, in the middle is the water plant which is a pretty big building with a massive pipe leading onto a smaller building with a helicopter pad attached to the back of it, the main big building has 2 entrances for each base, dotted around the map are cranes which are accesable by certain points for each team and will lead to the main pipe in the middle, Red team in there base have a load of scafolding but because its the future its more building like, the Blue team have a main building which you cant go in but have a walkway around out of the base over looking there side of the map, each teams have:
    1 Scorpion
    1 Warthog
    1 Mongoose
    2 Machine gun turrets
    1 Sniper
    and a couple of other weapons

    This map has taken me the longest to make out of any maps ive ever made including Dust-Off, with a completion BETA time of 10.5 Hours (thas just making the basic map so without all the weapons and decoration), this map does remind me of Dust-Off, probrably because of its cronstruction feel and urban ish enviroment.

    Players: 8-16
    Gametypes: Team Slayer atm but will add more as time goes on
    Author: ME, SlashedTortoise
    Easter eggs: None atm
    Release date: soon enough
    Testings: None atm (going to do one soon)

    so thats about it, keep looking back because i will upload some [ics with thebest quality as i can very soon, thanks for looking ill be back soon with more fish for your chips, Slashed out ;P

    -Update 1-
    This is how you can apply for testing of this map and also the rules when ur testing this map:

    How to Apply:
    GT:.........
    Language:........
    Mic Yes/No:........
    Have you done testing before:.........
    Age:......
    GT nickname:......

    okay just leave a comment with this template filled in, the first 16 people will get in and the first 11 will stay onto the 3rd match on this map where it will be 6v6, SO GET APPLYING!!!

    Rules:
    1) NO downloading the map, no point anyway because its not finshed yet.
    2) You need to tell me if theres anything wrong with the map by posting a comment on the thread that will be on here on the day of testing.
    3) NO trolling or annoying on the mic!!!!
    4) please no bad language and saying that the map is just rubbish because you need to remember its still in beta stages but criticism and recomendations is okay.
    5) If you can get out of the map and survive, dont keep doing it, do it once keep note and leave a comment saying where because we still want to try and have a good game on this.
    6) DONT invite friends because they will be kicked instantly and so will you, remember this map is still top secret atm!!
    7) NO spawn killing, you shouldnt be able to because each team has lots of spawn points in there half of the base but incase you can dont keep doing it!!

    i think thats about it for Update 1 of 4.
    Next update should be tomorrow but cant promise anything. and then hopefully i might just might be able to post a pic or two of the map, i know you guys dont all like applying for testing when you dont know what the map looks like i apreciate tha.

    You can't stop someone from spawn killing and just because their are "lots of spawn points in there half of the base" doesn't stop spawn killing either.

    Also having a map "top secret" is a pretty stupid idea and won't build any hype for it. We have no idea what it looks like so all we know is that it may be good or bad. Probably bad since you have people to apply to testing and various other reasons.

    sorry Elite Warrior5 but if you read the WHOLE thread you wouldve also read that will uploading pictures as quickly as i can, and i know that people dont like to sign up for testing when you cant see what the map is like and also i also said EVEN if you can, try not to just tell me that you are able to then i can sort out MORE spawn points to reduce it as much as i can..... SO DONT JUMP TO CONCLUSIONS!!!!

    Lol at whole quote.

    But you really can't judge a map because the map creator wants to keep it a little secret (even though I think keeping a map secret is stupid) So your point is invalid. Sorry.

    It looks to have potential, I'm very interested to see how this will turn out, but, the cranes...oh God, they look like Tetris blocks, how much budget do you have left? They need a little more aesthetic work.

    i have no budget left and pretty much no blocls or anything left, the cranes are made the exact same way as i made them in 'Dust-Off' which people seem to realy like, thats why i have used them in this map as well but thank you

    Maybe when we play the map I could possibly save the map, and see how I could work with he cranes to look better, show you the design, if that's ok with you of course. But then again it could be just me, since most of my maps are small and highly focused on details :p

    Same old, same old. I revoke my "apology accepted" as you continue to do what annoys the crap out of me.

    Btw, the map looks very promising and I hope to play this soon.

    It looks like the grass area needs more cover it looks way to empty there.

    So you're saying you can stop spawn killing by placing many spawns in a certein side of a map?

    You're also saying that having a map "top secret" is a good idea?

    Edit: And my apology wasn't truly meant for you because you was spamming my profile.
