    Foundry Original Version 2
    Created by JlGSAW Original by Bungie

    Description

    Version 2 of the original Foundry has open areas and very compressed areas that will deal
    alot of great battles from high to low. Take the top advantage from above on the previous
    known power drain platform but this time it is raised to a second level (structure similar to structured building on start of Halo3's campaign mission 'Halo'). Or take the lower advantage
    with the major power weapons, which include the sniper rifles and rocket launcher.
    *While your playing look for the crimson colored box...unless its only on my screen*

    Looks like a cool map, although unlike the real foundry their is not much cover and there is a lot of open space. Although from the picture the map does look like it holds cool game play! 4/5!

    I like your map's idea, but it could use some revisions. I would add a lot more cover especially in the middle. Also, there are a lot of places that you could have interlocked to improve the gameplay. I would make sure to do that in a lot of spots. If you have any questions feel free to PM me.

    That should be on the matchmaking for foundry. I dont like the regular foundry in matchmaking at all.

    I really like this map simply because the original foundry stinks and definitely needs revisions. THis makes the old foundry look like crap. But you did a great job and hey nice idea. 5/5

    From the name I was expecting a non-interlocked layout of the regular Foundry. You caught me by surprise, and I have to say the map is not to shabby, good interlocking was introduced and it looks like there might be Geo-merging. But what I really love is the layout of interlocking, it's not the cheap bozo maps that have interlocking and no interlocking all over the map, you actually had half the map interlocked and incredibly neat that it looks pro to me... I have to give your map a 5/5 it's incredibly good looking for something with little interlocking.

    From the looks of the picture I have to say that Game play won't be bad either, there are more routes to every location that it removed camping. The fact that you have grenades eliminates the single box camping position in picture one. I did notice one flaw, where are the weapons, I only saw one rocket launcher not a single other weapon. Take more pictures with weapons.

    I also recommend you take separate pictures with the spawn points... I need to see that. But really good job, it is an overall achievement in my eyes, it looks professional and unique in my opinion and keep making more.

    Thank You

    That was my first interlocking objects in forge. I just watched a video for like 10 sec. then went to try and thats what I created. The weapons are in almost the exact same spots on the map and so are grenades. The spawns are the same as 'foundry' also.

    But yeah I'll post more pictures of strategies I found while playing with my friends. And the weapons and spawns

    Do I just reply with pictures or can I add them on to the beginning post with my other pictures?

    I actually don't think this has the original Foundry feel at all. Its a nice map, but it doesn't resemble the original. The interlocking is pretty nice, and the map layout is ok. I think it is too open in the middle area, and could have a little more cover. Overall, nice work, 3.75/5.

    I give it a 4. I think it's really good considering how it's supposed to be a v2 of the Default map. 4/5

    1 Star? Wow, some immature people here...

    wow, really nice map. i think the big part near that thingy that seperates the two bases that are built into foundry looks really cool! i just think you should have interlocked the top 2 starcases and made them like half the size of the normal stairs. also, some geo-merging would do it some good! i give this..... 4/5

    I was never a huge fan of the default foundry, but the additions you put in looks like it could play better. I'll test it out later and let you know.

    It keeps the same feel of the original Foundry while adding a whole new dimension of gameplay with better weapon placement and forging. This is what Foundry should have been like.

    Final Score: 5/5 for working with a terrible and old map and making it fresh and new.
