Download the map here: Map Play this map with this variant: Game Variant Roadrunner is just a random name, since I did'nt know what to name it my girlfriend threw out a random one for me. Hi everyone, to start us off my GT is ggrozny. -> (Graws-knee) I am really starting to like custom games and forging maps. If you have a group of friends that do alot of customs and/or forging send me an invite on xbl I would love to do more but just don't know enough people that like it also. I would like to mention that this is my 1st attempt at forge, so there are still some flaws in the map. There is still at least one way out of the blocked off area, but hopefully you would be playing with people you can trust. I will take a little time to walk you through the map and provide some screenshots. The map is on the side of narrows only consisting of the gravity lifts and open air, I have blocked off each exit out of this area. So you have two bases, one for each team, that are connected by gravity lifts to reach the other side. There are miniature gravity lifts on the floor in front of the big ones, so that when you land you pop back up and are sent back to your side. You can force yourself to land to the side of the gravity lifts if you are paying attention, so that you wont get sent back. This is just to keep people from rushing your side as much. I even played this map 1 vs 3, I was alone, and this helped me out alot. Along with the weapons and grenades, you will find three equipment on each base, deployable cover, bubble shield, and regenerater. You start out with only the assault riffle, and there is only short range weapons laying around map. Spike grenades will be your only grenades, they are all lined up and easy to find. There is an Island floating in the air in between the main bases. On this miniature island you will find a flare, two flame grenades, and a turret that can see most of both bases perfectly. 1. These two screenshots will show you the blocked off area with the teleporters. They will just shoot you out where you entered, or the back of the base. In the 1st one you can see that is where the deployable cover is placed.

In this photo you will notice the bubble shield in it's normal spot, along with the line of spike grenades.

[img width=800 height=450]http://img398.imageshack.us/img398/6578/6equipmenton3.jpg[/img] 6. This is just to show/give you the idea to launch the spike grenades through the air, since you know people will be coming through. [img width=800 height=450]http://img398.imageshack.us/img398/626/7launchspikewe2.jpg[/img] 7. This teleporter to the right is your only way to the floating island with the turret. There is one in each base. [img width=800 height=450]http://img390.imageshack.us/img390/8349/8toturretpq1.jpg[/img] 8. This is your turret island. You might be thinking now that a turret that can see each base might be a little unfair, but since the receiver teleport is there right behind, it leaves you wide open to an assassination. [img width=800 height=450]http://img398.imageshack.us/img398/1636/9turretislandao9.jpg[/img] 9. These two are just some tips if you are on the turret island. 1) Not only can you shoot the opposing team, but you can also shoot out the miniature gravity lifts, to give your team a small advantage since they will be able to land on the other base easier. They are only on 10 second respawn though, so you would need to communicate this and get across fast. [img width=800 height=450]http://img390.imageshack.us/img390/8089/10shootgravaq7.jpg[/img] 2) Last tip would be to put the deployable cover behind you so that if anyone comes through the teleporter you will have a block between you and them. This is also one way to block the teleporter for the duration of the equipment.

If you find an easy way out let me know, if you think the weapons on the map are wrong let me know what you would suggest, and why. Just please leave some feedback / constructive criticism / and anything else you would like.
Re: New map: RoadRunner on Narrows Sorry this may sound mean, but this looks like a generic, man-cannon war, floating base-esque map. Try making it unique somehow. Make it CTF or something, not just slayer.
Re: New map: RoadRunner on Narrows I am really new to forging and forge sites so haven't seen any like this yet, but I do have CTF set up for this, you just have to set it on multiflag.
Re: New map: RoadRunner on Narrows 2 out of 5 Although I enjoyed playing it, it got old very fast. I have played this kind of map way to many times.
Hey glad to see you decided to post you map here on Forgehub but this post unfortunately doesn’t meet the guidelines. This is because it doesn’t have embedded pictures. So what I am going to do is show you how to embedded pictures into your map post on ForgeHub. To get you pictures embedded first you have to host them on a picture hosting website. I would use ImageShack® - Image Hosting because it’s the easiest in my opinion. 1st step is to save the Picture you want to embed from Bungie.net. To do this just open up the screen shot viewer and right click save image. 2nd step is to locate the file you just saved of Bnet. then after you locate the file host it on Imageshack. But here is where most people make a big mistake what they do is embed the thumbnail instead of embedding main picture. So what you do to avoid that is click on the picture. 3rd step is to take the picture and embedded into the post it so what you do is copy and paste the direct url. (Look at the picture below to find the location of the direct url) and then to embed it on Forgehub all you have to do is add around the direct URL you just copied and pasted into your post. And it should look like this but without the spaces. Finished product: You can also go here for a map posting template to make posting your map a whole lot easier. Or here to read he map posting rules. If you need any other help fell free to send me a private message Here
