MLG Backdraft I have become tired of MLG maps, so I decided to make my own. I think you will find it has very balanced gameplay. Enjoy. Weapons: Battle Rifle x10 Carbine x6 Rocket Launcher x1 Plasma Grenades x4 Frag Grenades x4 Screenshots: Special Thanks to all that helped me test this. You know who you are. Cookies are heading your way as we speak. Download MLG Backdraft
It pretty much looks like you took the perimeter of Onslaught and just tweaked the middle area without interlocking. Also movable objects (via: trucks, forklifts, & crates) are not up to MLG standards. 2/5 sorry
STFU jerk. it is actually a great map. not feature worthy or anything but it is very nice. I think you should have taken a closer at weapon placement. From the pictures i can see a few places where the rocket launcher would be overpowering. For example, behind the A&B signs in the corner. I don't see how this is copying onslaught so i will report that coment for bad review so that other people don't come in and think that you steal maps. I will now download the map and write you an offical revie.....After i get home from school.
The person above you isn''t being a jerk. This map is quite poorly created. It does contain a solid layout, nor does it have enough cover. You should restrain from using Movable objects when making an MLG Map. The Rocket Launcher way to overpowered, and just straight up excessive on such an open map version of Foundry. This map needs a lot of revisions before it should be posted on ForgeHub. Try and start to Geo-merge everything, and just make it overall more appealing to the eye. And Forgegod117, please try to use propper grammer, or it just makes you look stupid.
He did take the entire wall from Onslaught, it's pretty obvious, so don't say he didn't copy Onslaught. Also he did give it a bad review but he backed it up better than most, so you can't really report him for that... The map to me looks very open and barren. I don't think that there's enough cover or variety. The trucks and forklifts should be taken out in my opinion because MLG in general frowns upon them.
I'm prettty sure that MLG maps can't have trucks or forklifts in it, but I could be mistaken. Anyway the map is ok, I would make a v2 and clean it up a bit.
They can have trucks or forklifts if you know what to do. I would suggest replacing the movable items with another object, or making them immovable. Also you need to interlock the middle MUCH more. Replace the rocket launcher with a MLG standard weapon like a mauler. also you need to add WAY MORE COVER. The post needs to clearly state that the wall is from onslaught. 2.5/5 not as good as I origionaly thought, sorry!!!
Totally wasn't trying to come off as a prick but the walls and A/B-side towers are exactly Onslaught's. Also in MLG map variants there are no explosives present (with the exception of the explosive walls in Guardian and Construct that can't be forged). Think of the Pit and the cones/fusion coils that repeatedly obtained splatter kills, they're removed. All of these MLG'd maps have their movable objects/explosives removed because it takes away from the skill aspect of Halo, hence MLG. Basically I'm saying that ShaddoBlade should mention that Onslaught's walls are used and work on the central part of the map, maybe a little interlocking? IDK the map just seems far too open. I stand by my rate.
about this map, its pretty good. I would suggest adding more cover, and maybe an overshield and active camo merged into a box to show the bases.
None of you have obviously played this map. Get over what it looks like, and play it because it has MLG gameplay down to a science. And I am sorry that it resembles another map, but there are SO many maps out now, how can I create one that doesn't have similarities to another?
This obviously has nice gameplay because of the layout but i would have tried to make the middle part of the map a little more complex and added aesthetics to it to make it look more appealing.
I dont like the weapon layout either. You could have more than a rocket, BRs and Carbines. With only long range weapons there needs to be more cover.
People people people. Seriously. This map is a joke. Play it and you will see. I created this as a prank for any MLG chumps that would download it, although I failed because I was too lazy to actually make a decent looking map. So please lock this thread or something.
