Based on community suggestions, I beefed up Ancient by adding all sorts of fun stuff. There is now a Sniper Rifle instead of a Sword, more power-ups, more weapons and a better overall look and feel. If you thought Ancient was a bit boring, try this on for size! Download to HALO 3 Screenshots: Ideal Use: 2-8 Player FFA Slayer 4-10 Player Team Slayer Capture the Flag, Assault Download to HALO 3
Well I'm glad to see you have been making improvements to your old map. Your map now hosts a far better structural formation that cuts down on the long lines of sight your maps predicesor had. I'm also glad to see a reduction of turrets and the placement of a sniper rifle. A few concerns I have are where does the hole in the middle lead? Also I would recomend putting a few more entrances and exits into your tubes. They are far too long to trudge through without the possability of a second route. Overall this is a massive leap in the right direction, nice work!
I like some things in your map like the large ramp, tubes, and bunker (reminds me of the Japs from WaW) Although, I also agree with Canadians in that your tubes need a few more entrances. I see that problem a lot with tube heavy maps and I don't want to see the map be ruined because of this problem. Overall, good map. 4/5.
I will try to add another entrance to both of the tubes. I think I may also try to link them together by going through the bottom of the giant ramp. Other than that, I guess this map is ready to be played. The hole in the middle leads down to a hidden Kill ball, so you'll die if you drop. However, you can stand on the small inside ledges, crouch to hide and possibly execute a surprise attack (with the shotgun which spawns right next to the hole) on your enemies. There's an added risk, but it could make things fun. I appreciate the feedback. Thanks!
The second screenshot has intrigued me. I'll download this and give it a try and possibly post some feedback later tonight.
Uhhh not so big on the shotgun camp thing especialy since it's a hiding spot. If someone has a large lead they could just hide in there till the round was up. Glad your working on the tubes. Also I probably told you this for your last map but I would seriously suggest a weapons list.
I appreciate the feedback, but I think it would be very difficult to camp there. One well-placed grenade, and you're doomed. Also, it's not easy to stand on those inner ledges of that little hole. It does provide a good hiding spot, but it is not impossible to tell when someone is down there. I think trying to camp there would be more work than it's worth, personally. I may lengthen the respawn time of the pallets, though. That way, they don't keep popping back up every ten seconds.
