    Proximity
    Created By: Rifte

    Recommended Players: 4-8
    Recommended Gametypes:
    MLG Team slayer, Team King, Team Oddball


    In a drought produced by the ending of Halo 3's lifespan, you'd be hard pressed to find a map that is truly sensational. As time charges on towards the launch of Reach, interest in Halo 3 customs dwindles. It requires a spark to reignite the passion a community once had for Halo. Normally, the feature write up would be comical and lighthearted, however this would not do justice to a map such as Proximity.

    Proximity, a producer of shock and awe, has really done it's part to revitalize Halo 3. Originally a 2v2 map, Proximity has gone through transformations to now preform well in the 4v4 MLG scenario. Proximity is a tight quarters map with a lot of height. For fans of the Reach map Sword Base, Proximity provides a similar feel but in a more well rounded sense. On behalf of the Forge Hub staff, I can wholeheartedly say that Proximity is an impressive map from a Forger who has developed his talents excellently over the years. Congratulations Rifte!

    Fantastically forged map and a well deserved feature. Love the curved borders with the columns makes for a great aesthetic touch. Has the mood of that map Waterworks from Halo 2 with the curving walls, only a lot smaller.

    ZOMG FINALLY A NEW FEATURED MAP!!!! [/offtopic]

    From the video and the pics, it looks like the forging is nice and clean, and so is the gameplay. I'll definatley give it a DL [/two-thumbs-up]

    P.S. How in the world did Rifte have enough objects to make that, when I don't even have enough left over to add more weapons to my small asymmetrical/symmetrical map (most are power weapons)?!?!

    MLG doesn't really require a lot of weapon variety, so most of the weapons are OLN (except for sniper and mauler). In addition to that, I tend to use my OLN objects first so I always have plenty of non OLN objects (Proximity for example is out of budget but there should still be a decent number of objects left)
