    The man speaketh the truth. The link you have posted takes you to the wretched Bungie forum page. Here's the correct link for anyone else who wants to DL this great smaller map. I'd recommend four man FFA or 2v2 team slayer.

    I like the looks of this one. The back story was a bit much for me, but I read through it anyways, and I think it's pretty cool. What really caught me by surprise was the sixth picture. That arch is simply gorgeous.

    It's more likely a reason that doesn't pertain to the actual map, G043R. Anomaly plays very well with a smaller group of people (I haven't played with more than 5), and you know I'm picky. I'm not sure if any other gametypes are set up in the version that's posted; I know Aethos mentioned working on KOTH and VIP after his next project.

    YES! This looks nice, bro. I'm diggin' it. More importantly (in a selfish sort of way), you gave me inspiration for TNN's next map. Actually, just a cool little feature for our next map, but awesome none-the-less.


    It looks very nice. There was one spot where you had merged two Bridges in a box to serve as ramps to a higher Bridge. You probably know what I'm speaking of. Anywho, the "ramp Bridge" that was closest to the top was tilted, making it appear as if the player had to make an awkward movement to get to the top platform, BUT that's just my OCDness. Great map, bro!

    This map has really neat merging and everything is placed perfectly. The back story was interesting (I read all of it and the map-related text before ruins it slightly,) though I had some problems with it. And MC will be promoted to Senior Master Chief, I don't they plan promotions in advance. And also, Master Chief said it smells different? I don't think he can smell from inside his armor.

    Edit: "All naval vessels report through FLEETCOM, and the commanding Admirals of the UNSC."

    Picky much? lol

    I don't care so much for the backstory than the amazingness that this map gave me. I really wanna try a FFA on this map, it looks just epic for that.

    Welcome to Earth.
    Well, dispite what YOU 'believe' the term means, the literature states something different.
    Fleet Command - Halopedia - Halo Wiki with Halo 3 Walkthroughs, Weapons, and more!
    This may be difficult for most and seemingly impossible for you, but if you read the book The Fall of Reach you will see that term defined several times.

    Smell? The phrase was an aphorism and, as we know, MC is quite laconic in his in-game dialogue. The same effect was sought here.

    MC has every other sense enhanced why not olfactory? Its not that difficult, we can do it today. So, if I catch you right, you believe that MC is a 50 billion dollar super soldier with faster than human reflexes and thought processing abilities but he can not smell through his suit, which I might add, augments his movement speeds beyond human perception (also in the books), enhances all of his other senses drastically, and has a f*%$&ng invisible woman able to materialize into thin air living inside of it. I think someone would have given this some thought and created a solution for not being able to sense when someone has sh*t their pants 5 feet away, don't you?

    I think, and follow me on this one, you are jealous because you couldn’t be that creative in writing a story so rather than pointing out the creative elements, this is the good part, you became a douche bag instead. Am I right, or am I right? I’m always right.
