    Sky Island 4.5 - In Progress


    .:Description:.
    This map is an edited version of Sky Island 4. It now has better coverage on the island, better coverage on the ground, different vehicles added, and better item placements. This map is probably the most fun Sky Island, because the options are great, but Warning: Take Caution, because you are about to have a Blast!

    The map to rule all has arrived, but... what does it include?

    - Attackers Base (on Ground)

    - 3 ways to get to the island: Bridge, Gravity Circle (launches you all the way to the top of the map), and Banshee. NO SAFE TELEPORTERS THIS TIME!

    - Last, but CERTAINLY not least, Sky Island 4.5! (It's made of 8 Fence Boxes, 8 Double Boxes, Open, 4 Bridges (the other 4 bridges are used for the major bridge), 4 Grav Lifts, 3 Wire Spools, 3 Vehicles, 8 teleporters, and weapons/grenades. IT'S BIG, REAL BIG.

    Tips:
    -Each base has 1 Fire Grenade
    -Each base has 1 Spartan Laser
    -Each base has 1 Sniper Rifle
    -Each base has 1 Brute Shot
    -There's 1 Rocket Launcher (on the ground)
    -There's 1 Needler (near Gravity Circle)
    -There's 1 Missile Pod (on the ground, in middle)
    -If you're on the bridge, watch out for a Wire Spool to come hurling at you
    -HAVE FUN!

    Meh, looks okay.

    The bridge up to the island is uneven and doesn't look great.

    Why is there a warthog on top of the island? What's the purpose of that?

    Where do the teleporters on the island lead to?

    I couldn't tell from the pictures (they are a bit small) but do the boxes/barriers have weapon holders/teleporters on them to prevent be knocked off (or is that your intention)?

    I might DL if the questions are answered, sorry for the criticism, but it is constructive.

    Meh, it doesn't look that great. The only thing that really looks good is the man cannon circle.

    The bridge may look uneven due to the pictures... it's very hard to make a panoramic picture... also I only had 4 bridges to make the large bridge, so I had to somehow do it and I think I did it pretty well
    The warthog was a ghost at first (it's easier to fly a ghost off an island that it is a warthog), but the idea was that each base has the same weapons and vehicles that are easily accessible... I didn't want one base to be able to reach 2 warthogs, it would be unfair.
    they lead to a spot almost directly under each teleporter, yet it's still on the island.
    no, they don't have anything to stop them from being knocked over, because those were added in 4.5 just for cover, you can still die from a rocket shot, though (it adds more fun to be able to die in weird and odd ways)
    no prob, thanx








    Also, more pics are up
