Iapetos NG-48 Public Beta The ORION Project once used this facility to train Spartans for combat in a null-g environment. Map View Bungie.net thread Slayer Variant View Bungie.net thread Introduction: The idea for this map came from the book Enders Game. In the book the main character, Ender, would have to train in a room with no gravity, simulating warfare with fleets. I took this concept and applied it to the Halo universe. Description: This map is meant to be played with 4-12 players. Way points are deactivated, and radar is extended to cover the whole play field. All players are forced color black. With gravity set to 50% players can jump around onto the tiered floating platforms for cover and strategic advantage. Scoring is based on the lowest score on each team, causing the game to be more aggressive.

Re: Lapetos NG-48 Once I get more people to play a game on it, I'll replace these with more active shots.
Re: Lapetos NG-48 [Public Beta] Is this a S.W.A.T. based map considering the reccomended game type? It looks...somewhat...unusual I will have to try it out I guess.
Re: Lapetos NG-48 [Public Beta] It's not S.W.A.T. but a similar principle. Game play would be too fast, and camping too abundant for it to be practical to play S.W.A.T. game types on it. Grenades make it fun, but how to put them in effectively is the problem.
