    i think you are just jealous of them. Its no big deal though but seeing that not many people have the maps alot of the people that do have them are over here at FH. They are just anxious like DTL said. Although i wouldnt worry about it though as the maps are gonna be lost within the depths of all the bad sandbox maps on March 3rd.

    As I said before and continue to say, interlocking will not be needed to make smooth surfaces, but to make more natural feeling, and interesting geometry it will still be needed. That is all.

    I have to wait 5 more days, it is so painful... I have ideas and yet I don't have ideas. I know what I want to achieve but I don't know how I will, and I am interested in seeing what I can achieve once I get a chance to sit down and screw around. There is one idea in particular that I started on Avalanche that is now possible to make even better and longer lasting, but it will have to wait for it's predecessors to come out first... I do await the use of the Middle to Crypt chute in a map in some form however...

    Do not lose hope! Granted, there will be a sudden deluge of horrible zombie maps (HUMANZ HAVE INFINIT FLYING ABILITEES! Zombies can only live ten seconds!!!); but that (hopefully) won't stop the truly impressive ones from shining. We'll just have to hire a bunch more testers! =P

    Of course I'm jealous, but that's not the case in point.

    I just think they shouldn't be posted yet because they'll get like what.. 5 downloads? And they won't have enough people to critique and test their maps anyway.

    Im feeling the pain as well. I was planning on making a map in the skybox but after seeing assembly it totally ruinded the idea because i saw how alike they would be. Also i dont want to rush any sandbox ideas because of the new possibilities with all the new objects. im just sooo crazily jelous of all the ppl with the mythic maps now

    Am I the only one who has entered in virtually every single Mythic Map Pack Code Giveaway? I wish there were words to express my jealousy over those that currently are using the glory that is Sandbox. =(

    No, you're not the only one. I have entered in every single one - besides the Haiku contest. The site overloaded before I could post my Haiku lol.

    Does anyone know yet as to whether or not you can overload the map to turn off the laser towers??

    You can overload the map, but it takes more trip mines than it used to and it kills the sky bubble grid.

    Awesome, I thought it was still a few weeks away. I definitely can't wait for Assembly and Sandbox.

    If you needed the towers to be off then you would be forging on the middle level, and the sky bubble grid turning off really wouldn't effect you to much. Unless the grid on the ground turns off aswell?

    I'm pretty sure it kills the towers, and RightSide, it was just an observation I made...

    Some thoughts on the Mythic maps Orbital, Assembly, and Sandbox from some of FH's own Premiums, Loyals, and even an Architect who had the opportunity to check them out early. See the Mythic Map Pack Preview HERE.

    Oh yeah, if anyone hasn't done this yet, the height of the Skybubble... from the ground to the top is roughly 74 meters or so.

    Just a question going out there... can you pick up golf clubs in custom games... and do they then just function as grav hammers?
    Also what do golf clubs look like to other players?

    Yes, yes, and they look like magical pink fairies floating around your player's head.
