"A single base must be defended against a ruthless onslaught of enemies. 6-12 players."

I just made this map the other day, so if you find any flaws please let me know.

-There is a large, 3 level base in a corner of the map. The Attackers spawn "behind" it, and have to go around through the hallway to get to the entrance(s). The Flag is in an enclosed room in the 2nd floor of the base, along with a 1-way teleporter.

Screenshots:

Weapons:
-Several Battle Rifles
-2 sets of SMGs
-1 set of Magnums
-2 Shotguns
-2 Rocket Launchers
-1 Energy Sword
-1 Spartan Laser
-1 Sniper Rifle
-1 Beam Rifle
-2 Carbines
-1 Set of Maulers
-1 Set of Plasma Rifles

Vehicles:
-2 Mongeese
-1 Warthog

Equipment:
-2 Bubble Shields
-2 Deployable Covers
-1 Power Drain

Looks cool! I'll try it out, although just to let you know I'm going to Florida tomorrow, and might not be able to give you feedback until a week or so from now.
(also, if anyone wonders what happened to me over at NA, tell them this please. Thanks.)

looks good i havent tried it yet. i like how it isnt symetrical on the inside im tired of that symetrical crap

  • 02.27.2008 1:27 PM PDT

Yeah, I thought it would be more interesting if the base wasn't symmetrical. Happy to hear that someone else thinks so too.

One thing i dont like about the map is that you can get to the flag return area from the base too easily and the defenders can just camp there when the flag gets stolen.

You might want to block that off or someting - otherwise it's a great map.

Custom achievments
Double or nothing- get a double kill from the grave.
Pacifist- win a team game without damaging opposing players. (your team mates can though) and you can not die.
Ninja- get a double kill by assassinations
Traitor spree- be the driver of a warthog whos gunnar is of the opposite team and have the gunner get 5 kills (by killing your team mates)
Time for your shots: kill 10 people in a free for all match using a needled weapon ( spiker or needler)

i agree with halofan, its great cept fer tht minor detail.

Thanks for the feedback. I'll put up some barriers there when I have the time - later tonight hopefully.

It is really a great map. With a few tweaks like the one mentioned, it could be a Bungie Favorite (IMO)!

One other thing I'd like to add, though: there needs to be more spawning points for the attackers, otherwise its too easy to camp their spawns. Its not a major problem, and it should be easy enough to fix.

I hope to see some more of your maps soon, cuz this one is pretty sweet!

Do you really think so? Thanks!

Again, I'll fix the minor bugs and such when I get the time to.

One other thign I forgot to mention- some of the respawn locators aren't facing the right way - like if you spawn on the wall sometimes your player is facing the wrong way.

  • 02.29.2008 1:04 PM PDT

Hmm, I didn't even notice that! Thanks for letting me know. I'll be doing some work on v2 this weekend if I have some spare time.

Cool map! Needs more spawn points period. Add two spawns for every one you put down (double the spawn points).

Also, change the description of the map. It's still set to the default foundry description.

Looking forward to V2!

Thanks for the feedback, Linji. These changes will be made for v2.
