    Hello, I do a yearly game night every Halloween Called Halo-Ween. It has been going since Halo 3. It's basically Where we play a bunch of Custom Games and we have one featured map which I usually make.. But this year. I have absolutely no idea for any scenes..
    So I need all your help for Ideas. Much Appreciated!
    The Ideas Must be:
    Dark
    Scary
    Not Already Done/Not Well Known

    Are you sure you want to make a new map this late in Reach? I mean, I DO have ideas (a ton, actually), but I'm just delaying things for Halo 4. There are actually plenty of interesting Infection maps already that are worth checking out.
    However, if you do want to make something new, here you go:


    Locations:
    • Italian (port) town
    • Jungle (village)
    • Mountain valley
    • Chinatown
    • Zoo
    • Hollywood
    • Casino
    • Desert
    • Atlantis
    Settings:
    • Medieval
    • War
    • Scorched
    • Flooded (literally)
    • Guerilla
    • I Am Legend
    I hope this helps you to think of a map and its background story!

    Thats understandable, you have got to agree.. REMkings has some awesome ideas for you. Im doing actually the same as REMkings, just preparing for Halo 4. And finishing my maps.
    But if you want to do somenthing special, shouldnt you come up with it yourself? Just brainstorm for a while, i know thats why you are here probally for some help.. but still.

    - Urban infection map, city flooded with water. Nightime, only a few lights left in the city. (Free roam / holdout)
    - An building infection map, like an office, linear progression going upwards.
    - Beach resort.
    - Crashing zone, few survivors.
    - An festival halloween town (We are short on lights in forge, use your imagination ;)

    You really should check that link REMkings suggested, it pretty much contains awesome infection maps. Im sure you can get inspiration from there. Im a little short on ideas at the moment.
    Good luck.

    Thanks for the ideas guys. But the best one has been staring me right in the face.. I'm going to make Halloween Town From "The Nightmare Before Christmas". But keep the ideas coming. It might be useful to others >.<

    Nightmare before christmas? Be nice and include Jack Skellington and zero to the map, just kidding :p I think that the town is quite hard to remake, but man i would love to see that. Good luck! :)

    Aha Just to let you know. I'm basing it off The Kingdom Hearts Version not from the actual movie.
