    i think you could use a few more pictures. And it looks like you built this only one block off the grid (which wasn't the best choice for ascension, because there are multiple elevations). I think the center dish could have been made with different objects to make an actual bowl instead of the square you made. As for accuracy, it could be much better. Without trying to judge this as a remake, but as a playable map, i think that it would play quite well. Buy i think the banshee would have a few problems on this map because its build so close to the grid. There wouldn't be many places for the banshee to take cover, and vice versa. But i love halo CE and halo 2 remakes, so i'm gonna put this on my box for a while. This is the best ascension remake i have seen so far, well done!

    Hey, form the PIC this looks good. Maybe a couple to get a feel for the map. But i think you got something cool goin, since it isnt ascension due to the lack of towers.

    Please, add some more pictures. This post barely fits standards, give a bit more of a description, additional pictures, and include quantities of your weapons. It looks like a great map, but you need pictures. =(

    I just had a happygasm when I saw the first screens, it was pretty epic at first. You got the layout down, that's the most important thing to note here.

    However, it doesn't look good, I know this is the best you can do with Sandbox but this map is just ugly, that doesn't matter for much though. The towers are an inexcusable absence from this remake, it's just not Ascension without the towers.

    This map is going in the D/L queue for when I get Mythic come next Thursday, it will hopefully add joy to the first hours of Sandboxing.

    Even though this is a remake, its areial cover is a little scarce. I think the side tunnels had roofs, they did. And so add them. Also use pillars in the middle section. There are two different kind of long ones, would make it more realistic to the map from halo 2. Also, make it bigger and use small blocks for rocks

    It was a very quick remake, actually my second map on Sandbox. I have to admit I ran out of objects/cash because I didn't fully understand the object/cash limit.Yeah my bad.

    The small blocks for rocks is a great idea, but again it being kinda of a flat map, i thought the bigger objects would provide much needed cover. Making it bigger may not allow for the towers again.

    I may revist this map in the future and redo it, but currently I'm working on my 4th Sandbox map.

    Thanks for the comments guys.

    by itself, it looks like a pretty solid map, but as an actual remake, its not so good, the elevations are way off, the scale is bad in some places, and the middle has no hill to it like in the old ascension, 2/5

    also, isnt there radio towers in sandbox, so you could use those for the pillars in the middle platform
