Desolate Link: http://www.bungie.net/Forums/posts.aspx?postID=24209381 The name of the map the link takes you to is distortion and this is because i saved that thread before i changed the name but its still the same map. Map Description Desolate is an assymetrical map that works well with free for all gametypes and slayer gametypes but ive set it up for a few others as well. Includes Alot of Geo merging and Interlocking. Almost every structure is Geo merged into the map or interlocked with something else. Backstory Thes structures were signs of the first covenant civilization abandoned over a thousand years ago yet despite being abandoned for so long the structures remane perfectly intact.

Ooh very nice. Doesn't look like you can grenade jump out and the design is rigorous. Interlocking looks very nice so I'll give you a 5/5
I definitely like your map. You understand complex geometry and geomerging and interlocking very well. I only suggest that you change your map's name because there is a fairy well known map called distortion.
Yes i know i just remembered about the other map thanks for reminding me but i really have no clue what to name it. Please comment and rate.
This looks very nice! The structures you have created in this map with your interlocking is imaculate. I think you did a very good job making them tall with your interlocking on angles and geoglitching. I believe this is pretty cool so I will download and try it! I see you have already been told tochange the maps name. That is a very good idea since Distortion was featured and competing for most origonal map of the summer (best of forge). I would recommend you shange it to something that origonal and has to do with the structures. I am talking about names like Skyscraper or something like that.
I'm amazed! All those bent buildings look great, as well as the aesthetic touches you put on them! This is really good! One thing though. You should cahnge the name, people will mix it up with the famous slanted map.
Looks like a map I like weird buildings and just awsomeness. So dundun dun! rating time 5/5 and a DL. EDIT: The link doesn't work... EDIT AGAIN: It works now...It must have been me...lol
It was meant to be kindoff sloppy and every where because when i went into building it i had no clue what i was making so i based the whole map around one structure.
the map looks cool but some of the features in the map are a little weird looking. i like the double box made features that add some great asthetics to the map. good job 5/5
well the map looks very creative and i also like how much you geomerged and merged so much that takes alot of patience but one little thing i would change is mabey replace the ghost with something else.
good job bro, aesthenics are sick, and it has some awesome structures. I'm not sure how the great aesthenics will play though. but from what i can see 5/5 is deserved
while reading your post i noticed you called your map Distortion... you might want to fix that. anyway. im surprised to see that a newer member like you has such a great knowledge of forge. it looks like you know how to make a map. i can't say much now... but looking at the pics, i see a lot of elements from other forged map, which is great. i like to see a bunch of ideas fused together to make something great. i'll have to DL and take a closer look.
Thanks for noticing my abilities. ive visited forgehub for a while and have always loved looking at others maps and now i have got around to actually making an account and making my first map with geo merging and interlocking. once i figured it out some of those things it became pretty easy to me. please tell me what you think after you downloaded.
i like the way youve used the double boxes in this map, and usually people dont use barriars heavily in a map, and its good youve done it. "diversity kids, pass it on."
thanks for the comments and feedback. please rate and dl. making a mlg version with the same type of structures but not the same map
Im impressed with your interlocking abilities... VERY original map.. The oddly shaped structures in the map make it different from any map i have played... The ghost brings the map down.. BUT your structures make up for it... Great Job 5/5!
Yea thanks Mag and thanks for testing it with me. I have to leave the ghost cuz Fran said so... Cant wait till your map gets posted.
