    shuttle bay
    -----------------------------------------------------------------------
    first off, thanks for looking at my map
    -----------------------------------------------------------------------​


    shuttle bay is a remake of the shuttle bay in the belly of the thruth and reconcilliation, the ship captain keys was locked in when the covenant captured him, back in te halo ce days
    or just to make it simple this:
    [​IMG]


    the map is a small symmetrical 4v4 map which just works best. but 3v3, 2v2 and 5v5 also work. because of the small action i didn't place to much br's and carbines and more dual wieldable weapons to give a new twist to the map and gameplay.
    for this map i recommend assault, ctf or team slayer. i found neutral assault to be the most fun along with 1 flag.

    weapons list:
    if i didn't put a respawn time behind it its default​

    3x br
    2x carbine
    2x plasma rifle
    4x magnum
    4x smg
    2x ar
    1x sniper rifle - 180 s respawn time - 1 spare clip

    4x plasma nade
    2x frag nade

    no equipment to give a more halo 2 touch of gameplay which fits the map better to my opinion

    pics:

    front view, bleu base changes to v6: red lights deleted, blue lights are now the only to give it a more covenant look​

    view of the left side of the map above​

    a view of the tunnel entrance, no changes made​

    [​IMG][/URL]
    walkways are changed they now have two large pillars next to them for more cover and looks nicer​

    top floor entrance​

    view of inside of the tunnel that leads from base to the top floor. note the pillar in the middle that is there to cover your spawn and and is more accurate to original​

    close up to the base, bases are the same​

    the bridge structure, notice the base indicators ​

    Wow! You listened to me! Remember, I was the one who told you to get rid of the red lights for a more "covenant feel" you put exactly that in this post. I should download this out of obligation. It's even better than before!

    If you really want it to be accurate, you can merge the red and blue lights together to get purple.

    Wow awesome. Great recreation. I like most of it. There could be cooler structures for aesthentics but than it wouldn't be an exact remake.

    I remember this vividly from Halo: CE. So glorious.

    I like the looks of the map. The blue tone is the best setting, Covenant style anyways, a person can pull off. Combining red and blue makes the color more of a white off-set than anything else.

    as someone already said it won't work well with red-bleu merge.

    and yes i was thinking about aesthetics. but it didn't work out good

    at last i am happy you all like it

    I must say I am amazed. This makes me want to go play the other two Halos. After I DL and play this of course.

    I loved Halo 1.
    I love this map.

    Its almost a perfect re-creation of that covenant ship.
    It looks like an aesthetic remake, but with a gameplay twist to it.

    You did a great job on the interlocking and a pretty sweet job converting this into a playable map. Kudos.

    i just played it on a doubles game and it was awesome. it was really smooth and i really liked the extra pillar in the elbow. really reminds me of ce. i liked the weapon layout, the sniper is in the middle with a lot of chance of grenade injuring or magnum pownage
