Studying Game and Simulation Programming at DeVry University

I've been reading every one of these, and I figured it was about time I finally logged in and commented ; )
Really awesome, I think the submerged walkways are sweet, and I'm happy to just know you can do that. From your descriptions to the pictures, it looks like a well-done map; no joke about it.
Can't wait to see how a bigger play test goes.

...or at least DLC.
- I would like this map to be one of the first I download from file-share!

Don't listen to Derek, the submerged parts are the best! Looks alright so far. Good luck with the playtests and edits. Looking forward to the next installment.

LOved it urk. Glad you are keeping us entertained.


I think you should try to make the map a little bit more vertical. Is the map supposed to be asymetrical? Also mabey you should put some sort of nicer weapons off to the side of the map so people are encouraged to go out of cover more.

Thanks for entertaining us Urk. I actually like your map and would love to play it. But why can't you upload the video? You're not allowed or something?? I would really like to watch it. But your "comic-strips" type of telling is great actually it is so descriptive. Keep it up please! :)

  • 08.03.2010 2:53 PM PDT

I still want a video :(

  • 08.03.2010 2:56 PM PDT

Wow, nice comeback.

...

The the way the level interacts with water is the best thing about the map. Now, where are those boats?

In my humble experience I find it's always a good idea to put some non-power weapons on the map too. While everybody will rush a rocket launcher or shotgun it's good to have some needlers and plasma pistols scattered about too.
But these have been a blast to read. It's getting me even more pumped to give forge world a go.

You'll be playing with my emotions if you don put this up in your file share.

I think for the rematch, you put some extra weapons in the Blue Team Spawn.

I don't see why some parts being barely underwater is confusing, you can still clearly see the platform under it from the screenshots.

Also, do we know what AA Urk has? The green box on his back in the picture where he dies after he picks up the rockets.

If you don't know who I am, the feeling is mutual.

This map needs more grenades and Fusion Coils.

Nah, it looks awesome! From what I've seen, I'm really excited to get a look at it!

Why are you reading my signature? Who actually opens these things and reads them!

And as always, SEND ME A PM. Please. Or really bad things will happen to you.

Thanks for doing this, Urk! It is much appreciated for two reasons;

1. We get to see some of the intricacies of the new Forge.

2. We get to see some more screenshots of Reach!

A question though, how often will community cartographers be featured? They happened for a while after Atlas opened up and then died down and disappeared.

Urk my friend, do you think you could upload the gameplay video to Bungie's Youtube?

  • 08.03.2010 3:35 PM PDT

If you ever have the chance to upload the videos I'm sure everyone here would like to see the map from a players perspective while playing. Anyway, it looks good.

  • 08.03.2010 3:36 PM PDT

I almost didn't look at this...

  • 08.03.2010 3:36 PM PDT

That was beautiful. It's the closest thing we've had to a Hump Day in eons.

He's right you know, that's exactly what we want.

If you didn't Play Halo: CE or Halo 2 MP, your opinion about Halo means nada.

CE + H2 >>>>>>>>>>>>>> H3+Reach+H4

Stop teasing us!

Ah!! I wanna play this! Looks great Urk!

  • 08.03.2010 4:51 PM PDT

Soooo beautiful. I love the submerged walkways.
