    Introduction

    [​IMG]

    Altar is my first and best FFA slayer map on Sandbox so far. The theme of Altar is that it is located deep within a dormant volcano where the ancient alien race known as the forerunners possibly took refuge here and convert the interior into a holiday resort.

    Idea

    [​IMG]

    I got the idea of Altar from one of my previous maps on Ghost Town called Mosaic which was another FFA level. I got the idea of Mosaic from the brilliant map on Ghost Town called Endor. So I basically designed my idea from that and came up with a slightly enhanced version of Mosaic. Altar.

    P.S. After playing on the map Lava Pit. I decided why not add some Aesthetics into the map. So I placed some Kill Balls behind a wall where the shotgun is so now when you go to grab the shotgun, you can see the lava flowing through. There are also tunnels just like the Ghost Town ones in the same area but they are much larger.

    Weapon Placements

    [​IMG]

    In Altar there are a variety of weapons and equipment that have been placed on the map, only two of these are power weapons. Here is the weapons list.

    Weapons
    Battle Rifles
    Assault Rifles
    Needler
    Sniper Rifle
    Shotgun
    Brute Spikers
    Plasma Pistol
    Plasma Rifles

    Equipment
    Active Camo
    Regenerator
    Frag Grenades
    Spike Grenades

    Process

    [​IMG]

    While making this map, I had some friends test out slayer variants. Most of the time they always tried to find ways to get out of the map. I always had to keep on making newer and newer versions to stop them getting out and stopped and V.10. Hopefully there aren't any ways to get out of the map. If so contact me Metal Mak Z. I also had the make a few sacrifices with weapons and equipment e.g. Power Drain, Brute Shot, Bubble Shield, Radar Jammer, Maulers, Deployable Covers. For Budget Cuts. Damn You Bungie :(

    Conclusion

    [​IMG]

    So in Conclusion this is my map Altar. I hope that in my fullest opinion that you enjoy the map. If you suggest any changes contact me Metal Mak Z.

    Have Fun :D
