    As most of you now Foundation is a Halo 2 multiplayer map. This Foundation remake has a lot of the same things from the classic and some minor Halo 3 swaps. First off no Warthogs. They probably wouldn't have worked to well. I also replaced the ghosts with 2 choppers. The sword has been replaced with a gravity hammer and the shotgun has been replaced with a pair of maulers on both sides and their are 2 spike nades behind both turrets. The last swap is a test swap Rockets have been swapped for splasers. I felt the Rockets would dominate the choppers and turrets. I have it set up for every gametype including neutral flag and neutral assault.

    Where are the rooms in each of the corners? They appear to be absent from your map! I like the replacements you made, such as changing the warthog for a chopper. I just don't think this map will play as well without the rooms. Maybe they are there but i'm just not seeing 'em...

    also, whats the point of stacking up a bunch of objects against the original walls of crypt? seems a little pointless but maybe i'm missing the reason for that as well. Maybe you could include a little more detail in your description. Other than that, this map looks fairly accurate

    I'm glad we're starting to see some remakes on Sandbox, such as longest and this one. I hope to eventually see many exact and perfect remakes of some of the best halo CE and halo 2 maps

    EDIT: oh look, more pictures! Okay, it seems like there might be a little room back in each corner, but I could use a picture to be sure. Now i understand the map a little better. I'll give it a download just to go check the rooms....

    Intresting concept, I like how you game enough room for the choppers to be effective. A bit more cover may be in order but overall 4.5/5.

    Trust me their are rooms lol. If you have Sandbox give this a DL and see for yourself. The rooms are roofless though. It would have just been very time consuming.

    Aaaaa 27 more hours for me... I'm just wondering but is gameplay smooth without interlocking on sandbox? As in no gross bumps when you move around on 2 boxes that are beside each other?

    The floors pop up a little after you place down objects I'm sure you got your hands on the maps by now though.

    This hasn't been posted on in a week if people don't reply/like it to it I'll let it die.

    looks pretty good, id like to see what the inside of each base looks like, and maybe just a little more cover could be added.

    still i give 4/5 srry no DL

    Very good Foundation remake, but I think you can improve it.

    First of all, you could make the coners more similar to the original:

    No, you're not retarded. The Warthog wasn't available in Matchmaking, but it was in Customs.

    Anyway, I think this Foundation remake is better than the one I saw yesterday, but it still needs some work.

    3.5/5. I don't like this remake. It looks great but personally, I don't like vehicles in such a small map, and the original one's default layout didn't have vehicles. If you remove the vehicles and make it at least 90% accurate(leaving the same weapons and stuff as in Halo 2), then I'll rate it 5 stars. For now, no download from me.
