We're gonna make it.

Urine won't be the only bodily fluid spilled in the Kiddie Pool :D.

Looks awesome. I can't wait to forge. Excited to see your progress.

On a side note, and a suggestion, I would say pace an active camo armor ability somewhere as it will be deady when the player is in the water. Its like being a invisible great white!

I hope this ends up in Matchmaking.

Agreed.

Are you going to mirror that on the other side, making it a symmetrical map?

You should just put as many spawn points as you can down! And always try to put 2 in any place you think would be good.

Also, make sure that there's about 3 seconds of clear walking space directly in front of the spawn. Don't want people running directly into the sea now do we :P

Ferrex: "[...] perhaps to your astonishment, we do have more significant bans prepared for habitual AFK'ers and betrayal inciting. We've thought about this harder than you have."

LOLOLOLOL clearly you are wrong.

Hopefully we can all get that map off your filehsare at Reach's release!

  • 07.29.2010 2:05 AM PDT

i may have to agree its not up to the standard of proper map but in my standards its just below the bar,is it possible the ones that would like this map could download it from a map file when reach comes out?

  • 07.29.2010 2:13 AM PDT

I hate 'II D3STR0Y3R x'
Please call me 'Akaradude'

I am loving this so far! I also hope this will be put in with matchmaking! If it doesn't you have to upload the Map to the site!

I really like the layout, such an improvement from Day 1

Yax is a shining beacon in these dark times. You should all strive to be more like Yax.

Remember to put it in your file share when you're done.

Oh, there's no way this is going on the disc. Not only are we way past that point, but it's nowhere near up to the quality bar.

Hmm, Map Pack I bonus map?

I can see the title now..

Urktacular Map Pack I


Urk-roic map pack? Legend-Urk-y? Myth-Urk? I like the last one.

I want the Myth-Urk Map Pack free on day one. 8D

You've taken your first step into a larger world

I agree Myth-Urk Pack on day one would be great besides you want to make sure the DLC stuff is going to work... you could do it day one! =)

Anyway glad to see the added dance floor. I'm sure Nathan Fillion is pleased now that he knows the drill.

smart, interesting, seems out of place.


Official fan of Assassin's Creed, Call of Duty, (Problem with that?) Halo, and Bungie, also a total gaming junkie.

Why don't you put it on your fileshare after the game comes out, I mean, your friend list is full, and everyone on your friends list see's it, they will probaly download it, and so on. By the way what do you mean that map dosen't reach the quality bar?!?!?!? that map has the same style as some of my maps, and one of my worst maps made it to Bungie favs!!!!!!! Oh ya almost forgot to mention, the map looks AWESOME. 7

That looks awesome urk! The incorporation of water is an awesome idea, I don't think there was too many places on Halo 3 to do something like that. Keep us updated, I'll be sure to make this a DL when Reach drops! ^-^

Sweet map! Better then I could do. Looks like it could be fun :-)

So urk, its been mentioned that we can make boundaries for our map so people don't go wondering in the wrong places. Is it also possible to make a ceiling for the map? (I think you already mentioned it, I was just trying to confirm).

Don't forget to think about what armor abilities players will use and add some map stuff to go with that. (Like maybe a ledge for jet packers to get onto).

  • 07.29.2010 10:00 AM PDT

It is just my opinion not the law.

Looks great! Keep the updates coming. Thank you.

Ahh, man. Video when its done? Maybe some 1v1 between you and Chad?

As an architect who's used to manipulating 3D space with proper tools, I too gave up on the Halo 3 Forge editor within a couple hours. I'm encouraged by all the new tools and excited by the variety of locations afforded by Forge World.

I doubt I'll have time to make any creations of my own, being a responsible husband and father these days, but I'm excited to see what the community comes up with. I can only imagine how many hours I would have spent creating Halo maps had this come out when I was a lad. I get your 80's references. All of them.

Good luck with the map and thanks for making my Friday afternoons that much more enjoyable each week!
