    BACKSTORY TIME!!!!!

    In Halo 3, there was this guy that created 3 pretty fun maps that were dubbed the name TEAM GLADIATOR! http://www.forgehub.com/forum/casual-maps/8946-team-gladiator.html

    Now, I had an f-ing blast on this map. Haven't played it? well you missed out on an awesome time...

    Anyways, the map is where there are 2 teams who are basically invincible. Their are many weapons set aside that the competitors can choose, than there are the equipment and then its time to enter the arena. You enter the arena by going through a teleporter that is blocked until 30 seconds into the game. Each player shoots out and fight to the death. Whoever is the last man standing, wins. well, their team wins...


    It is an extremely fun time, go pop in your dusty halo 3 disk and play it.

    MOVING ON!

    I wanted to make something that was like that, but better. Keeping DaCeased807's rules, everyone is almost invincible, will have many weapons and AAs to choose from, and will have a nice map to go along it all. But I want to start a revolution (que epic music.)

    So as of now, I am in the works of creating a TEMPLATE. Yes, you heard right. A template. If you have no idea what a template is, then you are in good luck. If you know what a template is, move on past the pink.

    A template is basically something that is made that people follow and modify as needed to create something. For Example

    Here will be an Example Template.
    Race:
    Age:
    Personalities:
    Favorite Music Genre:
    Favorite Movie:

    Then someone will take that template and modify where needed.
    As so...
    Race: Asian
    Age: 26
    Personalities: Quite
    Favorite Music Genre: Hard Rock
    Favorite Movie: Kaazam
    (Note: Everything above is completely false about me)
    TADA!


    So what I am doing is creating this template in which there is the spawn area,(above the arena) where people will pick up their weapons and taunt their enemies (there is a nice window so that you can wave and look like an idiot to the opposing team). After 30 seconds a large explosion will be heard, (tank plus mines), and 3 (or one, im not at that stage yet) will open for each team's spawning area. Players must leave the spawn or face the consequences of death for not having the common sense of walking into the teleporter.

    And that's only the first part of it. When players enter the arena, they will be faced with either a place they don't know or somewhere they do know. How is this told? well, its up to the community. Coming back to the template, the arena at first is a large octagon. Perfect size for a quick 4 player action. Either you make it look like a coliseum, maybe you want to make it centered around a big rock fist, or maybe you want people to have to have to fight while jumping away from rolling deathballs.

    its up to the community.

    As of now, i am only around... 60 percent of the template done. All i need to do left is put in some teleporters, completely copy blue spawn and basically paste it over to red spawn. and then tweak the gametype here and there.
