Foundry Mephisto

cool see a lot of merging probably ghost merging but still looks really fun perfect for my parties of 4-6.definitely dl keep forging ang can you give a description of the map???

 

I had a lot of fun playing on this, especially the 8 person FFA lol. This map ran 1v1s great, and 2s was really fun, but make sure you play with no nades on start.

 

This reminds me so much of the map that had a bioshock look to it(I forgot the name sadly)

It looks like it's worth a download, I'll try it out tomorrow and give a valid opinion. =)

 

I am always looking for good casual slayer matches and this looks like a wonderful example...keep up the good work!

 

This map grabbed my attention pretty quickly, not just because of the number of merges, but because they're all so clean. So I downloaded it, did a forge-through, and my initial impressions were reinforced. There's a great attention to detail throughout the map- and the humping trucks in the background are hilarious.

Then I called one of my roommates over to try it out. He had a little trouble getting oriented, although I didn't have the same trouble since I'm more familiar with Foundry. Maybe you could add a little more visual distinction to different parts of the map, though.

I thought the weapon balance was great. The sniper and plasma pistol were definite draws but weren't overpowering at all. Also, the general lack of ammo definitely promoted movement.

However, I had two big concerns. The teleporter was completely out of place. In such a small map, it seemed unnecessary, and every time we used it the resulting fight just seemed awkward. If I played the map a second time, I'd avoid the teleporters entirely. My other major concern was that the layout led to predictable encounters. For example, every time I'd run up the ramps toward the carbine, I'd get shot in the back by the sniper. Again, that makes me feel like I need to avoid that area altogether, and that leads to stagnation in the map.

On the whole though, this map is really great. I'm really impressed by how clean and detail-oriented the merging is. I just hope you can iron out some of the gameplay kinks for a version 2.

 

Wow cool map ! I think you get bassed on Remedy a creeping death map ! Anyway your map are unique because your weapon choice are great for your map maybe add a over or a camo ! I give you a download and a 4/5 !

 

!Wow your gra!mmars and your spellin!gs is bad!s and your exclamatio!n points are annoyings and overused!! Weapon choice is unique? What's that supposed to mean?

The aesthetics on this map are great and I love how you used the inside area instead of the outside part like they do in grifball and so many foundry maps these days. The gameplay looks pretty decent, I am going to have to try it but I can already say the gameplay is going to turn out well.

 

Wow your originality is beaming through this map. I assume you used ghost merging but I love how you used the most difficult half of Foundry to execute your idea. I'll DL and get back to you on the gameplay, but nice job!

 

This is epic. You do not see this type of flawless merging often. It is quite small but you could still put more weapons out. Three weapons besides BRs is just not enough, even for a map this small.

 

This map truly highlights the amazing quality of forging that is available on Foundry. I challenge all of you to do a forge-through simply to check out the seamless forging that Solo executed quite nicely.
Mephisto is in such a unique place and creates a very, very different feel than any other Foundry small asym. map I've seen.
Job well done Solo.

 

y do some people act as if ghost merging is a pathetic escuse in forge and originality? how so?

anyways I played this map with a party of 4 playin 2v2, at start it was fun, but later the carbine area seemed like a "o please shoot me" zone and wat are teleporters doin on a small map such as this. I motion that u delete the teleporters, add (aesthetically pleasing) cover to the ramp o' carbine, and add some aesthetics that tell which side ur on(red/blue/yellow sides), and get this map featured cause it has a chance if u can clean up some of the gameplay.

 

You sir, are an idiot. Getting rid of teleporters for aesthetics is exactly what he DOESN'T need to do. Go learn something about competitive Halo, because you clearly know nothing if that is your opinion.

 

ghost merging objects to be flat is very hard for me, is there a way to make that easier? the objects are hard to put even

 

nice this is really cool and clean. i love the whole idea of the map and the aesthetics are amazing. but what should i expect from you solo. you have some of the cleanest merging that ive ever seen on any of your maps

 

I read in your description to use the MLG variation, are you in fact intending it to play as an MLG map, because if so You posted this in the wrong section. I bring this up because If it were MLG my suggestion would actually be entirely wrong.

Both from doing a forge around as well Looking at your pictures You made it rather to the point. Your map has not used very many movable objects. It could be your forging style, but to add realism to your map often it helps to add a few barrels or crates. These also help players see weapons in spots they often would over look if nothing Caught there eye there.

Think of some of bungies maps and how they combine the idea. PS If this is MLG you can't use moveable... so that is again why I openly asked you.

 

How does this map run 1v1's well? I've played it, and the spawns were excruciating. All the time, players spawn either in "Gray Box A" or "Gray Box B". I had an easy time predicting my opponent's spawns.

As for the games with more players, I have yet to test it again. Amazing job on its design, though. People should make more maps like this.

 

I have to differ... but again I was in customs playing 6ffa. That made the maps true spawns reflect and it played wonderfully.
