This is an official cry for help. I have an amazing idea for map (at least I think it is), but next to zero forging skills since I have never really dedicated any time to it. My idea is for a four story enclosed structure with long and high lines of sight for long range and close range combat. I imagined this map as a Slayer specialist, but other gametypes could be added as well. I have made an excel file with detailed layouts for each floor, if anyone is interested, I would be more than happy to send you the file so you can have a preview of what I had in mind. Since I will probably not be able to help very much with construction, I will allow whoever helps me to take FULL CREDIT for the map itself, as long as I am credited for the idea. I would like to be able to at least oversee construction and playtest it. This way, I could provide some help, while seeing that the map turns out as I hope it will. I am EXTREMELY dedicated to getting this map done soon for playtesting, and eventually posting (followed by a feature), but need help from the awesome members of ForgeHub. My gamertag is CondalingisRice and I am usualyl on between 8:00p and 1:00a ET. My time is somewhat limited now, but I will return from Mexico on Aug. 21, after which I will have much more time to help. I will be checking my Live friends list for friend requests as much as possible. I would love to start this tonight, but I need the help of some skilled forgers. PM me if you want a copy of the excel file, or pictures of my layout. Thanks a lot guys!! I look forward to forging with you!! UPDATE: I now have a layout for a 3 level design with the same basic idea. The 4 levels would be better in my mind, but the 3 level version will probably be able to fit inside Foundry. If you want a copy of either excel file, just PM me with your e-mail address and I can send it to you.
Well, in my head I put it to be a long corridor with like support beams in the middle, and if thats what you mean then good idea. But not sure about 4 stories, and I could help once my Halo works again, so good luck. Oh and 100 posts!
Its more like a mix of Midship from Halo 2 and Borading Action from Halo:CE. In the middle is the main room where each of the four floors can see people on every other level. On each floor has a platform around the perimeter with sets of stairs connecting floors 1-3. There is one pillar in the middle with a spiral staircase inside as well as a platform around the pillar on the second and third floors. At each corner of the middle square is a four story tower. There are catwalks that connect some, but not all of the towers on the outside of the middle square. The only way to get to the fourth floor is to go up one of the spiral staircases that are located on the third floor of each of the four corner towers. The fourth floor is just a walkway connecting each outside tower, but it allows players a good view of all players below them.
