    If you're going to tell him that you have to at least tell him how, otherwise just don't say anything because it doesn't help the problem.

    Actually, all you have to do now is go to the images, and copy the IMAGE LOCATION(right click on image). Then just insert image on your initial post.

    The map itself looks okay aesthetically, but I think a lot of the cover could be straightened out a bit, such as the fins. I suggest getting rid of either the sword or shotty, because of the size of the map. Maybe just leave the sword but have it on top for when people try to get it it'll be a race.

    Also, you do know that Ascension is a map in halo 2? Your name is misleading, many people are going to think that you are doing a remake when this clearly isn't. Maybe change the name? (also, shotgun and Sword both right there in the middle=no no.. stick to one of them)

    If the title was meant to be like a halo 2 remake and it's not, then it's misleading, if it was named ascension for purposes not attributed to the Halo 2 map, then it isn't misleading.
    Until the maker explains, we can't tell.
    It's unfair to condemn a map title because there's another map sharing that title.

    first off rename your map..also anyone after this post saying that this thread is not up to forge hub standards because theres no pics without having to click on a link will be considered spam

    even from the pics this map looks pretty poorly put together in ways of merging. there a ncie layout but its ver very small and you said its good for 2-9 try 2-3 maybe. a weapon list would also be nice cause you only show us a few pics that dont show much and i can only see a sword and shotgun.

    really why do you do that stop bossing people around and telling them what to do i dont see admin written beside your name

    the map is fairly good but sword and shotgun definite no no id recommend using the shoty because the swords lunge range is probably going to be a problem, you may also want to merge the walls connecting to the middle and the wood bridges leading to top mid.

    i like the map in general espicially the two story part, you might want to change the name because again it is a halo 2 map, and no offense thats why your have so many views of your map, because people thought you u remade ascension from halo 2. other than that the map is good, you might want to take out the shotgun and sword because they are probably overpowering.

    Looks pretty nice and well amde but its al ittle too small for my liking. Make another half like that and it wouuld be big enough to have some pretty fun gameplay. OTher then that its fine.

    Sorry about that, all these questions came in whilst I was sleeping (I'm four hours ahead of you guys).

    Thanks to the guy that fixed the images for me.

    Ascension, the name I gave it, has NOTHING to do with Halo 2. It's just because it has two levels.

    Shotgun and Sword are a keep, they work well together (surprisingly), as we found when we had some Slayer games on this map.

    Right, a lot of you are still annoyed at the name, so if anyone has anything better, let me know.

    If you are one of these people that think it's too small or hate the shotgun-sword combo, why don't you PLAY IT WITH SOME FRIENDS. It's deceptively big-feeling, and trust me, the two power weapons really compliment each other.

    EDIT: For now I'm not accepting any criticism (except for the name) until you've played it.

    EDIT: Also it's not an aesthetic map. It plays better than it looks. Thus COMPETITIVE.

    I'll make an updated version with a new name.
