    GIZA
    BY TheGreatHibiki

    [​IMG]
    Giza Top Overview
    Map: Giza
    Gametype: Mummies
    Creator: TheGr8tHibiki, with help from Hitokyri and Gaming Fusion Gamers.

    Giza was my 'I want to make it before everyone else gets this map and does it' and it shows as I spent over twelve hours tweaking what I could to make the best looking map I could. The Whole Upper area took me aproximately 8 of those hours. So here is the first Pyramid of Sandbox.
    [​IMG]
    The inside of the Pyramid AKA the upper interior is two levels with minimal weapons and wide open spaces with a few corners that can get hairy, red and blue lights illuminate the area giving a very interesting feel as you drop down into the crypt.
    [​IMG]
    Here is where the action is. Inside the crypt is a second Pyramid! You will arrive at the crypt floor in one of four teleporter nodes and scattered across the field are weapons of various types along with a power weapon on top of this pyramid IF you can get to it, it's hard but not impossible.

    A second Teleporter inside the building sends you back up into the outskirts of the Giza upper area as seen in the upper overview.

    This has been my most ambitious map to date with several more ahead.
    Thanks for viewing.

    no offense, but this first of all is not the first pyramid map. ive seen at least 3 others posted weeks ago, and have been planning on making my own for months (dont have mythics).

    anyway, from what i can see this is pretty mediocre. you didn't show anything really, just the outside of both pyramids and a single, obscured inside shot. if the whole inside is really that cramped i suggest expanding it exponentially. this seems like an o.k. concept. just executed very poorly. 1/5

    i agree with the spartan you cant really tell what the layout or much else about the map try posting more screenshots and a better description and i made a pyramid map well before this but never posted it and several people posted theres

    its brown ... thanks bungie

    This needs alot more description, plus you could have made this in the sand so it actually looked like a pyramid rather than a perfectly constructed building ... Plus game types would be very odd on this map, where are the spawns?

    hmm. i actually really like this map. i like how you didn't just go for the pyrimid, you put stuff inside, then the crypt under that.
    the map looks great Givin it the old DL


    you should make a mummy infection game to compliment it. or make another with a maze inside, and a mummy game type. FuN.

    He never claimed he made the first pym on Sandbox, so why would you even bring that up?? Why did you give the map a 1/5?? I would like to see you do better.

    Actually I did... Yeah I searched all through forgehub but I had to go to Bungie to find the others yes.

    So I was wrong on that.

    I'm working on some pictures of the insides of these structures but due to their construction it's nearly impossible to get a decent picture of them.

    unfortunately, i dont have the mythics, and i wont have them or my xbox back until my birthday (the 28th). but once i get them i will make a pyramid map, but on a grand scale. i already planned it all out. i might even include a sphinx :D

    and i already told you: i cant see **** from the pics he posted and it looks like it owuld be uninteresting for anything other than maybe infection, and it doesnt even look fun for that. once again, im going off of the 3 pics he posted. not very good from what i can see.
