    My remake of Damnation. I was only able to play test it with up to 4 players so far, it plays very similar to that of halo ce. You can still camp and hide behind the teleporter on the upper bridge. Tried balancing out the spawn points for CTF just let me know if theirs any issues with that. I haven't figured out how to get infection working. Added the appropriate dead zone so no one can jet pack places you should be hiding at. Also added some scenery and a movie reference easter egg.

    Wow this is impressive and I hope I won't be let down when I see this on Reach (I need Reeeaaaach). This will definitely be one of the first maps I download, hope I have time to add more to this post when I physically see the map.

    ive gotta say, i was really excited when i saw the damnation remake title on your thread. this was my second favorite map on halo: ce.

    from the looks of it.. this is too great. the one thing i would have done different, instead of making the bottom just water; levitate the map (its super easy now) and you could make it so when you fall there you would die (either from fall damage or kill zones). i can understand you wont want to do that now (so much work into that) but that would have made it perfect.

    ill DL and check it out soon. :D

    ...it's beautiful...

    but really, This has got to be the best remake of damnation ever. I'd recommend putting a drop-shield where the ovie goes for new slayer. It'd be the least obtrusive powerup possible. Other than that, good work.

    The only thing I can is that it seems like there's more open space than the original Damnation, like it would be easier to see someone from a distance. Maybe my memory is just hazy, though. This is definitely by far the best remake I have seen yet.

    Well; I've played and tested it.

    It plays far better than any Halo 3 remakes I've tried. But your upper floor is way too flat. You used flat walkways rather than the ramps of old, and your gameplay suffers from it. The middle space is now a death trap.

    However, I love the look and nostalga this map creates. And the water bashing against the rocks on the bottom lever is amazing looking.

    OK, I'm beyond thoroughly impressed. Not only is it a pretty darn good remake geometrically and such, that water jank is GORGEOUS. Seriously, I couldn't disagree more with whoever said to put it in the sky...this is a brilliant reimagining of such a fine map (one of my favorites from CE). Really well done, man...you've got my download and respect.

    We tried it out as slayer and it played really well. You absoluteley have to go back and look at your spawns though. On more than a few occasions We were spawning in direct line of fire to opposing spawns even on initial spawns. You need to move them or your gonna have a bunch of easy kills. Also whats up with the base in the distance on the cliffside?
