    OutPost 343B TM

    Its finally here....

    Ok let me give you the story.

    Its 5 years after the first encounter.... The US outpost are overrun, and the world is in a standstill, as we wait, watch, and hope. Now let me tell you my story. My name is Nicholas Carter, I was stationed at outpost 343B. Just another military checkpoint along border. Until they hit. We were all worried, but nothing happened. We were told to stay calm and remain alert, until that day.... When we were raided by the Covenent special arms group. A legend among the Covenent, these guys were strong fast as resilient. When we got word that we were the only outpost left around we were ordered to retreat. To bad I wasn't there when the signal was given. Me along with a party of about 6-14 other men were out on a recon mission scouting for food, as we were cut of from supply lines and needed something the eat. Armed only with whatever we have left at our base and a dingy set of outdated armor we were met . As we saw them the jump on us, not giving us much time to retreat, then got one of my friends 1st private Stuart, this was his first and last deployment. Now were are held back at our base not knowing what to do how to survive . Now im just trying to reach you please help us, help the world . DOWNLOAD and PLAY TM

    (Edit:) Thank God I was able to get back on... Be warned if the last days we had noticed that they have flood like adaptation to absorbing other organisms. Meaning.... once you die you're with them.....
    Here are some surveillance pics I managed to get to aid in your effort.

    This is there suspected entry (respawn) point

    Looks pretty cool man I like the way the base looks. The only thing I dislike about the map is the zombie side. I can tell you're a good forger so I'm sure you could find another way to put cover down rather than shield doors. That kinda ruins my DL right there I'm not gonna lie. Shield doors aren't all bad, but I try my best not to use them in Foundry. Along with Teleporters and Lifts. (Unless they're underground or not able to be seen.) The reason for this is because Foundry has a "Modern Construction" vibe to it and those items above are alien-like future stuff. To me it just doesn't blend. Anyway, sorry to ramble I tend to do that, I like the map as a whole so I guess after writing this I might as well DL. I'll play your custom game on it soon and tell you how it went.

    3/5 for now just by pics. Gameplay rating = later.

    Im there with yah man I didn't want to use them, but there are the only "covenant looking things available, This is B It as A until I redid it, I never publish A But I will most likely make a C. Plus they kinof look like deployable cover for an attack.

    you could use interlocked fencewalls+shield walls to make more covanent cover, or u could use ghosts and wraiths that are held immobile by window pannels - that would look really sick. hope this helped!

    By reading through the post(which is artfully done BTW with you pretending to "have managed to barely get these photos without getting caught" it adds to the map if somebody reads the post) I see that you said you have a weapons room... AAGGHRHRHJSKDGH, don't put weapon rooms ever. If the room has like 4 BRs that never respawn then that is one thing but if it is loaded with "ub3r 1337 grenades infinite respawn lol pwn" then that is bad. I think I may try this map but looks like some unneeded interlocking was done and some interlocking that was needed was not done. I really can't be the judge until I play the map however. So for now based of pics and description 7/10.(No gameplay added into scoring, could go up or down)

    Ummmm read the post tastefully done, all power weapons are set with minimal ammo and all grenades are on like 30 - 65 sec respawn. And they are all Covanent weapons. There are four carbines and 60 sec respawn. So dude please don't do what you just did w/o checking out the actually room it is small with a small amount of weapons artfully placed ( if I do say so myself) with a fence box meshed in the hall to black it off ( geomerged)

    Uuum, pardon me, but I remember seeing a map JUST like this a few weeks ago, but with almost no interlocking, and no skillful switch. I even remember the shitty looking gate, truck crash, and back pallet entrance. I'm not saying that you stole it, and, even if you did, I say that this one is way better than the other one, which was ****. Well, the map has some nice interlocking, the gate isn't one bit sloppy, and the back entrance is pretty cool. Gameplay seems nice, but is the weps room connected to the base, or is it connected by teleporter? Anyway, 4/5.

    Duuude, I remember this, I thought it would take you longer to release. Looks real good. The only thing I dislike (along with the others) is the shield doors. Looks cool though.
