Seventeen years have passed since the events of Marathon 1. Durandal, one of the three AIs from the Marathon, sends the player and an army of ex-colonists to search the ruins of Lh'owon, the S'pht home-world. He does not mention what exactly he is looking for, although he does let it slip that the are planning to attack Earth, and that being on Lh'owon may stall their advance. Marathon 2 brings many elements to the game that can be considered staples of the series such as: a Lh'owon-native species known as F'lickta, the mention of an ancient and mysterious race of advanced aliens called the Jjaro, and a clan of S'pht that avoided enslavement by the Pfhor - the S'pht'Kr. At the climax of the game, the Security Officer activates Thoth, an ancient Jjaro AI. Thoth then contacts the S'Pht'Kr, who in turn destroy the Pfhor armada.... Mime Target From the hit 1995 release (that is re-released for the 360 fyi) Marathon 2 Durandal' is the map Mime Target. Basically everyone is assigned into individual bunkers and it is an all out slaughter fest to see who can reach 50 kills first. This map can suit 1-8 people and is meant for free for all game play. It is meant to be used with the "Marathon Rocket" gametype. As I previously stated it was based from Marathon so i have created a comparison to emphasize the similarity (Shown Below). I truly love the game marathon Durandal and made this map to inform the public, and although simplistic (intended) it is loads of fun to play with friends competetively. Here are some other screens: Marathon Rocket Game Variant Mime Target Map Variant Enjoy, Recon Squadron
A truly great remake of a truly great game. I loved this in Marathonurandal, and I expect that this will be equally fun. Nice forging! A solid 5/5 and I will DL later!
Nice nothing great about it except tons of fun for who knows how long thanks for making this will be fun to play with snipers that way it could actually take somewhat skill So simple and easy to make but so much fun.
An all out rocket slaughter? Count me in! Definitely a download from me once i get the mythic map pack
It could still be one life dude. -_- This map is a very faithful remake to Marathon and really resembles it well. I can see this game working with a bunch of different weapons, except the plasma pistol and other automatic weapons like the assault rifle and SMG. It's almost like Bungie wanted this to be remade on Sandbox...
If it's up to 50 kills, it can't be one life. I've dl'ed the map. If people DO spawn in other people's chambers, then the way to fix this is by making teams. That way each team is assigned to 1 chamber. It also means that you could also have 4v4 battles, with one team assigned to each side, or a 2v2v2v2v2v2v2v2 with each team to one chamber. I'll see when I play it.
