Seriously, everyone who reads this thread needs to go download Custom Edition and play NMC. It's incredible just to drive through. The Halo 2 version is going to be even better. :)

There's at least 20... Be prepared for a little bit of lag in your hardware. It's a huge map.

Approximately 36 out of the 56 servers on my list are running it! :D There are probably more, as I have some filters turned on. We had upwards of about 500 people online when it was first released, too. Felt good. :)

I played it for about 2 hours or so, and there were still new things that I hadn't seen before. If you really look at the detail that was put into this map, it is amazing. On the roads, there are white lines that flash, there are stop signs/ lights on every corner that blink STOP. There are Warning signs that flash. The bump-mapping is excellent. Just everything is very well done, from the architecture to the sounds that you hear coming out of objects. If you stand next to the generator, you can here it running. It's just amazing when you take the time to look and listen to the detail in this map. I can't wait to get a new computer so I can play New Mombasa in it's full glory. I cannot wait until the Halo 2 mod is incorporated into this map. Good job Doublefire and anyone else who helped make this map great.


BTW, I was playing with you Let me Live. I wasn't playing to well though because I've been playing Halo Xbox lately.

Those are just a few prerelease shots that I could find. If I wasn't at work right now, I'd fire up Custom Edition and take a few new ones for ya, but... I'm at work. ;) IMO the screenies don't compare to actually walking through the place, witnessing all the attention to detail, the sounds of battle in the distance, and the array of gametype possibilities. Definitely worth checking out.

I have to say anyone thinking about downloading CE rightnow there is no better reason than
New_mombasa_classic!!!! I downloaded it last night and damn what an awesome map for CTF I love IT!! Nothing is funner than taking out 2 tank campers with a banshee and then grabing the flag and scoring on that map. If there was any doubt about Halo being the best game I ever played in my 18 years of video gaming this convinced me it was.


All you people playing Halo PC multiplayer YOU ARE MISSING OUT ON ONE OF, IF NOT THE BEST HALO EXPERIENCE EVER!!!! This map shows the true potential and awesomeness of Halo CE.

I wasn't all that sold on CE at first, but now I am hooked!!! I love CE and I love New_mombasa_classic!!!!!
Great job to the makers of this excelent map 10/10!!!!

How does that make you a dork? I've gotten a few games just for multiplayer too....

That map looks awesome, and it plays pretty well, little FPS drop but no big deal. Its layout and gameplay is just average I think, but it looks great and all the hard work put into it shows.

Indeed. Even the words in the Traffic Signals. Just killer attentiion to detail..

And as for how that makes me a dork? Well, I already had 3 copies of Halo for my XBoxes, I just bought Halo PC specifically for Multiplayer online...
