    COLOSSUS

    Tried to make it as faithful as possible, had to cut a few corners near the big window but I'm happy with it.

    The bridge between the bases only appears in Free For All games (like in Halo 2).

    Supports all Gametypes except Race/Rally and Invasion.

    Hmm. Looks very accurate, but I believe some darker FX would do this guy justice.

    This looks very faithful to the original Colossus, glad to see it (loved 2v2 on there) looking to get some games on this soon. Good job.

    Yeah I agree and I was planning to use some FX, but I ran out of budget (again).
    Overall, I think the budget was better spent on making the map as accurate as I could.

    I really like your elegant solution in replicating the angles next to the conveyor belts. It was something I didn't attempt when making my own remake. The two elevated platforms on the side feel uncomfortably close to each other, but are correctly spaced in relation to the ground floor. The ramps from there feel a bit narrow, but I know you are low on budget and a change like that would be expensive and time-consuming
    The area directly around OS is more accurately recreated than mine.
    There are still number of touchups I'd suggest, but it is well conceived and clearly thought out. Keep it up!

    Looks pretty good. I'm liking all these halo two map remakes, but it bums me out that theres no way to add in all the fun moving objects that these maps used to have, for example the conveyor belts on this map and the array on pinnacle. But still looks really good!

    I used to play this map a lot back in the day so I find it very nostalgic to see it made with such accuracy in Reach. With every high quality remake, Reach just get's better and better. Well done, your work is very appreciated.

    Very nice job, Colossus was one of my fav halo 2 maps. I really envy you for making it so accurately.
