    Here is a preview of my latest map, Boxworld v2. The map is a remake of a well-known Counter-Strike map called fy_iceworld, and the first version took much less time to make. It was also my first competitive map, and it had received mixed reviews but the bottom line was that the map was mediocre at best. I decided to rebuild it from the ground up. The new version took roughly 15 hrs to build, and it is now in the testing phase. The map is completely symmetrical and will come with its own custom gametypes (Box Flag, Box King, Box Ball).

    Just in case you didn't see/play the first version, here are some pics of the map for comparison:

    I have already played a few games with my friends and they all liked it, so that's encouraging me to post it up here. The problem is, my gold subscription expired so I can't upload anything to my fileshare. I will probably get a friend to upload the map and gametypes for me so I can copy them over to my own fileshare. I had to use a 48-hour trial just to test the map, and I still have one left if I still need to test the map some more. I'm hoping to renew my subscription when Christmas comes around.

    I hope you guys will like the map when it gets released!

    It won't let me use mine. It will say that I have to be a gold member to use it.

    I love Iceworld in counter strike. I don't know how well it would play in halo 3 though? The map looks excellently forged and but be good with a fiesta gametype like how it is played in counterstrike.

    I tested the custom gametypes with a few of my friends and it was really hectic. We had some great 2v2 games going, and it was really fast-paced just like Iceworld was. I didn't put every weapon in the game on the map, but instead I put in my own weapon set because having every weapon on both sides on the map probably wouldn't work too well in Halo.
