    Though i say remake, i think this map is more a tribute to the great map that made me fall in love with halo, i've been forgeing since the day halo3 came out (i stopped in alot of hotels with no internet:)

    I spent all my internet down time endlessly trying to create 3d pictures placing guns on 3 different hights 298 failed attempts later i came close enough with the spider and called it a day, yet i've never made a playable map.

    When Halo Reach come the only thing missing was my fav map and allthough i did try lots of amazing versions of it, they just didnt feel right, clinical presision was spot on and they played well but i just could not feel it so decided to build my own.

    I built this from memory so to my amusment when playing halo3 after building it i made a few missjudgements with the layout,but the map played well 4x4 and they amused me so kept them in. Dont fly to high if you chose jet pack you will be punished and mind the hole by the shotgun.

    big thanks to MrGreenwithagun for his help with the spawning.

    Good indeed, but you spelled GUARDIAN wrong, and the size proportian looks off at the top gold lift......

    Yes, indeed you did. Guardian is spelled with a U before the A. You may look it up in a dictionary if you would like. Responding "i did didnt i" doesn't also doesn't make much sense.

    Back to the map, I find it fun, but the problem is how there are already so many. If you want to introduce something new, I'd understand you, but this ground has been tread by just about every other successful forger on Reach sometime in the past. I am afraid to say that I have seen much better.

    I've seen a few Guardian remakes and most if not all were better than this, no offense, its just heavily overdone. Though I would be interested to see if you could make something original how it would turn out.

    Looks very cool, emphasis on the rock formations. Not trying to be negative, but you have the minimum players set to 01. I think 02 would be more correct, but its just a preferrence.

    Hello....This is a tough map for anyone to make as so many great remakes and remakes of those remakes have even been made.... and I am afraid there is much wrong with this remake. The post says it is forged on Anchor 9... it is on forgeworld. It does look good and has the layout of guardian, just the dimentions and areas look wrong as a remake... I would go more on a remenat or re vamp of Guardian and not give people who download your map a false impression.

    I don't think anyone looked at the post properly here. OP clearly stated that it was his take on the map, and said it wasn't exactly a remake. I personally think it looks quite nice, and a good take on the map.

    Obviously, the people who posted about it not being like guardian need to stop browsing for pictures and READ the writing above them.

    I dl'd this map and looked around. And like every guardian remake, it unfortunately suffers from massive amounts of framerate lag in the center. Everything else is well forged and looks good and I like your take on a classic, but this just isn't playable. No offense intended. Just trying to be constructive.
