    Map Title: Parabola

    Download Map
    -This map plays best with MLG variants, also on my file share.


    Description:

    A parabola is a curve; a turning point. This seemed to be a suitable name for this map, and you'll see why.

    Parabola is a smallish map made using a fair amount of interlocking and merging. It is very symmetrical, with two bases, a crescent hallway, (the parabola) and a room inside the parabola's inner walls.

    Parabola supports Assault, CTF, Oddball (though not very well), and, of course, Slayer.

    The weapons are:

    Battle Rifle x4
    Carbine x4
    Frag grenade x4
    Plasma grenade x 8
    Rocket launcher x1
    Sniper rifle x1
    Custom Powerup x1
    Mauler x2

    Screenshots:


    This is the parabola from a bit off the floor.

    This is a view of the parabola from one of the bases; near here is a carbine, two plasmas, and a battle rifle. I am jumping in the room to the left.

    This is a base. The crate in the back leads to a surpise.

    A magical mauler!

    This is the small room inside. It has a sniper, two BR's, a custom powerup, and two frags.

    Everyone please rate on Bungie.Net as well. DL if you can too. :)

    This map looks pretty fun. I like how you don't have the map focused on playing on the ground. I'll get back to you once I play it.

    Some things looked a tiny bit uneven but other than that great job. I give you props for originality. 4/5

    Thanks. I did all of this by eye; and it was also my first time using interlocking. But thanks.

    I reccomend either lining it up witht the floor or lining it up with the walls, I use the floor since faster and easier. once again GJ

    Agent, it's quite simple. If you get your pictures onto photobucket, just clcik on where it says "IMG" in the four lines below the picture. Then just copy and paste that into your post.

    Thanks to everyone who has posted so far. And I'd like better quality pics too, but it just won't happen :(

    i do think the interlocking could be a lot better, and geomerging could add some easier ways to jump around, the map has a great design though, make a v2 with some improvements, for now 4/5

    The only way I'd make a v2 is with help. And lots of it. It's small, but it took a while to make, and I'm not too great with patience and geomerging.

    If anyone's reading this and wouldn't mind helping me with a v2 add Happy War Cow on XBL.

    I've got a v2 started for MLG, and I think I might start a non-MLG version of Parabola.

    Well that's great, I'm here to inform you, you've just triple posted and that is a massive no-no here at forgehub.
    We dont need updates and we dont need nor want you to spam and bump your own map.

    Dont be surprised if you're hit with an infraction.


    I say this to help you as you appear to be new and a little hazy on the rules.

    Did you read the standards of MLG before you made you map? They dont use fusion coils, movable objects unless they have a weapon holder on top to make it immovable (all of these items are movable, crates, barriers, cones, barrels). It would also help if you had a bit more of a description.

    It's an alright map bu it just isn't up MLG standards. There is a certain level of etiquette for MLG maps; items, weapons, scenery. You can't just make any old map and slap on the MLG label.
