    I don't know how long it takes you to remake maps, but I've always wanted you to make new maps instead of remaking old ones. You're one of the few people who I get excited to think about forging, so I guess I'm just being selfish in saying that I wished you would try new things and become the hero we need you to be.

    Anyways, I only ever played this map in Halo 4 but it was pretty fun.

    I appreciate it, this remake had been done for ages and I figured I might as well post it. I have a few new designs but I haven't been too fussed about finishing anything for H5 in a while. Recently though, I've been messing around with classic(ish) settings in customs with friends and made a map scaled for it that I hope to finish when I am less busy...

    Going to be Quake/Unreal Tournament as hell! It is playable in my Bookmarks. I hope to do more original stuff at some point but you know how motivation to finish forge maps in Halo 5 can be.

    I really appreciate the stylization of the remake. It lets the map retain the simplicity while also giving it a gorgeous original look.

    Looks smooth, yet simple and refined. I also like the green boundaries. Nice work man.

    The callout for that one spot is still fat right?

    Thanks I appreciate it! It's always a stretch for me to go beyond blockouts so this is probably as detailed as I can get for now.

    This map isn't on your fileshare any longer?

    Should be in my files but not bookmarks as I want to clear the page and make a new set of maps for my bookmarks made specifically with Evolved in mind.
