    PREPARE TO DROP

    Well this is my first map post here on Forge Hub so lets hope its up to standard:

    In this wasteland an ODST dropship overlooks the wreckage of a UNSC sattelite, its power source has become unstable and their mission is to salvage it, but the local Covenant base has differnent ideas...

    With the story out of the way ill give you a run down of the map, built for Assult game i made titled unstable, this map features the following:

    Picture time!

    Overview:

    The Dropship:

    Covenant base:

    The Sattelite:

    And the bunker:

    The tank in the ships hangar isnt for nothing, i improvised a switch that drops it straight down to earth, to activate simply detonate the fusion coils next to the tank, the fusion coils force the radio antenna out form underneath the tank and that being the only thing keeping it upright it falls, often on its treads too.

    Dropper in action:

    Success!

    Ive yet to properly test it myself so DL and tell me what you think :)

    Just a reminder, the screenshots were taken in forge so the grids and teleporters will go away etc.
    Enjoy i guess!

    Well, atm, I can't play my Halo 3 disc right now, otherwise I'd give it a play, but anyway I love the tank drop idea.

    The tank drop idea is very good. I will download once I free up space on my hard drive.

    Looks a little sloppy, but the tank is nice. Nothing real special, but not mutch wrong. Just fix up the roof a bit. 3/5, if the roof was nicer then 3.5/5

    Pretty good map. Tried it, but was a little to lopsided with all the banshee's, but that is just my opinion. 3.5/5

    This looks like an attempt at an aesthetic map that you desperately tried to make into a game map. I think you failed at both. The drop ship doesn't look very impressive. The ground base or whatever those buildings are... just mediocre at best. Just by the looks of the map, it doesn't look like great gameplay, either.

    To be honest your exactly right in saying originally i was attempting to make it aesthetic but before halfway through i realised how bad i was at it and attempted to make it a a good game one, but before you comment on the gameplay it might be a good idea to download it aye? and actually play it.
