CROCKET LAUNCHER When the radio tower was destroyed and all communications were lost... people went mad. 2 - 8 players Made by GoodWhaleSushi and COMMANDERMATT1 Gametype(s): Slayer (TS and FFA), CTF and Oddball. Map link: Bungie.net : Community : Forum Topic Listing : Forum Reply Listing INTRODUCTION: OHAI gaiz, GoodWhaleSushi here, presenting thou with his first map ever posted (Except for that Mountainous one bit it was incomplete, therefore it failed). FIRST OFF: Why Crocket Launcher? Well, as Turbo Gerbil and Caboose (COMMANDERMATT1) already know, the Rocket Launcher on the map is mounted on a weapon holder and looks a bit like a ****. Commandermatt likes to crouch on top of it and pretend it's his ****, therefore: Crocket Launcher. Har har har. WEAPON/EQUIPMENT LIST: WEAPONS: 5x Carbines 4x Battle Rifles 2x SMGs 2x Magnums 2x Maulers 1x Plasma Pistol 1x Shotgun 1x Rocket Launcher 1x Beam Rifle 1x Sniper Rifle 1x Sentinel Beam 1x Machine Gun Turret 1x Needler 1x Assault Rifle EQUIPMENT: 6x Plasma Grenades 1x Overshield 1x Active Camo 1x Power Drain 1x Firebomb 1x Bubble Shield 1x Deployable cover OVERVIEW: The Überest merge of all: The crane. I merged a single box into the crane for this one. Also, if you shoot the fusion coils by the sniper rifle, the Sniper Rifle can fly to one of two places. Next to Mauler 2 or in front of the Firebomb. Strategical. OVERVIEW 2: FIREBOMB AREA/SUN WORSHIP ALTAR THING: Contains Firebomb. Overshield hidden in background. BASE ONE: Contains BR and a turret for extra defense in symmetrical games. BASE TWO: Hidden: Sentinal Beam and kinda the Beam Rifle. Contains Active Camo and Wire Spool Jump™ (See last 3 pics). SHOTGUN AREA: Contains Shotgun, Plasma Pistol and Power Drain. MAULER ONE AREA WITH FLAMING SPARTAN: ÜberMerge, with Bubble Shield and Mauler 1. SPECIAL JUMP: PRAISE: Please note that none of the important people have played on this yet, therefore it won't get all the amazing comments that other maps might. Thar. Any questions? Elaboration needed anywhere? Comments? Post. Please!
Lol, you can see the Crotch-ets (hehe) in the shotgun area pic. lol, i can imagine someone doing that with the rockets as they stick out a bit. teehee. The flaming spartan just happening to run by made me lol. literally. And that merge by the mauler spawn is uber!! its like an uber merge!!!!! Elaborate: if you shoot the fusion coils, where would the sniper go? EDIT: What's with this: "Proxy-Connection: keep-alive Cache-Control: max-age=0 Magnums"
this map looks very cool i like the look and feel of it. it seems like you took a lot of time making this map. very cool i like the special jump idea. it makes the gmae really hectic if your trying to do that during combat.
ÜberMerge: Not REALLY. It stuffed up a bit and I screwed up the money glitch right afterwards so I was unable to fix it. If you shoot the fusion coils by the sniper rifle, they can fly to two places. Next to Mauler 2 or in front of the Firebomb. Strategical. I have no clue. It's gone now! Thanks for the comments. The special jump works really well and if you do it correctly you can sometimes do it without losing any shields. And yeah, I spent a while on the map, but I think I spent less time making it than I did procrastinating and putting off the release.
lol. Thank you. I hid the sentinel beam for it pwns almost all. It's up to you to find it. And you have to shoot a fusion coil to get the beam rifle.
Wow... Thanks a lot GoodWhaleSushi you make me sound weird or something like that. Now i regret saying that i ever helped with this map. lol. Its a great map and its really fun to play just you make it sound so bad with the descripion. Im suppriesd that you didnt put me right on the rocket launcer or something like that. Thanks a lot...
What i didnt say anything bad about the map. I said that it is a great and its really fun to play on. It just feels werid on the choice of words. And thats all... Ilove the map and i think that its great, ohh wait i was one of the creator. lol
I'm sorry but unless you're going to say something constructive/helpful I may have to neg-rep you for spamming. (Sorry)
I thought it looked familiar. I can remember playing this weeks ago. Its very nice. Nothing really new, but what was used, was used great, if you get me. I found it to have very diverse gameplay, I'd be surprised from multiple points. Firebomb sun was very cool. This is a very nice map. Forgewise, nothing new and amazing but it had solid creation. except for the uber merging, taht was uber, lol. and Gameplaywise it was very good.
Thank you. I reckon the ÜberMerge wasn't the fact that i merged the double box into the ground, but the fact that I merged a single box into the crane.
wow this is really good with great attention to detail. 10/10. nice interlocks. i like all teh uber structures and cover and hidden firebombs and bases and everything.
Wow GWS you finally got around to posting this you lazy bastard.=) But this map is extremely fun no joke.The map uses all sorts of advanced forge techniques that makes it play and feel much better.When you play this map it doesn;t feel like foundry at all.Its so hard to accomplish that feel now a days.I love how you posted this as more casual calling that uber merge uber merge.I will be + repping you for a great map and a great post that must've taken you a while.Allz I can say is just keep making them and can't wait till next time =).
Thank you, Mr. Sampson. There are many ÜberMerges on the map that are better than the one I primarily listed, too. Give it a play. Look around. EDIT: Best. Comment. Evar. Thank you so much! =)
Yeah i'll do that. INV me sometime (GT=Murdock Sampson)... this truly is one of the best competitve maps i've seen in a while. there are a lot of uber merges, the weapon set doesn't seem unbalanced, and there are a lot of original ideas. I (and a lot of other people) could learn a lot from this map and its techniques, and i hope the map i'm releasing in a few weeks can match up.
Ok I've played it (not a large party, but oh well.) and it's great but the only thing I don't like is the the exposure everyone gets and the exposure you get once you pickup that sniper on the tower. In large-er parties everyone would see you and shoot the fusion coils to get you. One thing I LOVED about this map: The teleporter/grav lift thing near the A/B signs is tehsex because if you chuck a plasma at the double box near the end of it, it acts like a trap because the plasma keeps going up and down...thus when someone goes in it, they get stuck. 4.5/5 =) (Also very very advanced techniques in this, adding another .5) Nothing is perfect, but a 5/5.
