    Anti-Air Gun
    Made by UFH Nightmare

    This is my first map post ever on forge hub. The game variant is called AA Gun One Bomb. I might add more screenshots. Please leave a comment on how I did on the map or any suggestions. Some guns on the map have bigger spawn times and ammo.

    Story:
    When the covenant started to attack, the UNSC built an anti-air gun to defend a near-by base. The anti-air gun does not have a use any-more after the end of the war. It has been left alone and doesn't work any more but you will get to fight on it.

    Weapon/Item List:

    Assault Rifle x2
    Battle Rifle x16
    Shotgun x2
    Sniper x5
    SMG x3
    Brute Shot x1
    Rocket Launcher x1
    Spartan Laser x2
    Energy Sword x1
    Machine Gun Turret x2
    Missile Pod x1
    Bubble Shield x1
    Power Drain x2
    Trip Mine x1
    Gravity Lift x1
    Regenerator x1
    Flare x1
    Deployable Cover x1
    Active Camo x1

    Thanks for checking out my first map. There is an Easter egg on the map, it can be found in custom games, but is more likely to find in forge, enjoy!

    This is not posted in the right section, it should have been placed here. Aesthetic maps are for looks only, they are rarely, if ever, playable.

    I believe that this is considered competitive. But this looks really fun. I understand you thought it was aesthetic from the giant missile launcher tower (from campaign right?) but if its playable it is not aesthetics. But i believe that this is really cool, pretty original layout with a good weapon choice. Also, thats definitly not fair that one side gets a hornet and a Scorpion. Please just stick to the Hornet :p

    don't double post ^ also I don't know how this would play but, I like the Gun it looks pretty cool, you might be able to create a switch that fired fusion coils out of it if you somehow hollowed out the barrel.

    Suggestion 1: Don't take your pictures in forge
    Suggestion 2: If you change something about the map, change the pictures too!
    Comments: Okay, no offense, but... It looks better for gameplay than aesthetics. The "Main" thing of the map isn't that well constructed. You started off strong on the legs, but it's kinda an epic fail for the top part. Gameplay wise though, It looks pretty good. The map looks pretty good for anyone that is worthy of wielding a BR. Anyways, I give it a 3/5. Good work. Keep on forging!

    Epic Fail?
    I doubt its that bad haha

    -=-Nice idea though dude (Y)
    And at least it is still playable, and you have put a general structure into the map :D
    so 7/10 :)

    it would have made this map a lot better if you would've made it so the gun "shot"
    i like the whole one bomb thing where you try to blow up the gun... thats always fun

    overal the gun looks pretty cool so 5/5 aesthetics
    game play is kinda fun too

    Wow man nice job. Generally when people add a middle structure it's just a big shape. The big shape thing isn't bad by any means, but it's common and unoriginal. This, however is an actual middle structure and looks, in my opinion, awesome! I'm not positive if you were trying to copy the gun in campaign, but if you were, nice job! The minute I saw it I thought of that gun so I hope it was your intention.

    As for the actual map, I don't see why ya moved it to aesthetic maps. I think it would be more useful as a competitive map than an aesthetic. I think this because as a middle structure, that thing is awesome, but if you were going to make me judge on purely aesthetics, I've seen better. What I haven't seen is a map with something that looks that good AND plays well. I haven't played it yet so I can't say it has good game play, but I think I might check it out and see. If it's as good as I assume, you've definitely started a trend. One that I might possibly follow.

    Overall, very good. I say 4.5/5 for now since I don't know about game play, but if I end up playing on it I'll rate it based on my experience. Good map man I suggest you make another one just like this, but obviously with a different middle structure.


    P.S. Sorry for writing so much my thoughts tend to scramble which makes my comments get out of hand. Hope you found it worth your time.

    Get rid of the bases for an asethestic map. Or comepetivtive with them.

    Maybe a V2.0 that shoots fusion coils at enemy aircraft?...

    P.S I want credit for the fusion coil thingy pls.

    ditch the hornet and replace it with a mongoose or some other light vehicle
    i think this map is aeshetic becuz it still looks like a remake of the mission on the storm, well not an exact remake, but a remake of the gun

    overall this is an excellent map and i think bungie should choose this to be in MM playlist

    This is an awesome aesthetic map and competitive map, which isn't a usual occurrence. The bases on both sides are really nicely evened out, and BR battles are pretty epic with the unique cover provided. Major props. Good job!
