Why not stop by my File Share while you're here?

~Long Live Halo 2
Only regret is I didn't play more of it.

If you haven't noticed by now, I'm sort of a jerk.

Nice job Urk, when it's all said and done, I wonder how hawt it'll be.

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.

I think its the hologram AA, not exactly sure.

btw nice work Urk!

Register at your local Vault Tec office today! The world might not be there tomorrow...

Needs more Flamethrower, because being on fire surrounded by water that will kill you (despite the irony) is awesome.

P.S. Does water in-game only react to Forge objects with physics properties? Such as a weapon, corpse/player, vehicles... or can things like columns and blocks affect it too?

P.P.S. I love the series, keep it up Urk.

I like the direction this map is heading! Personally I love the partially submerged walkways, but I think I see where Derek is coming from.

In the above picture I can see how it would be slightly confusing. It looks like you can take a left or a right at first glance, but I assume that the path only leads to the lift.

Maybe use some of dem' new fangled lights to make the path more obvious, that or slightly higher walls. Basically it needs some more visual cues to help. But whatever you do, keep the submerged walkways, because at the end of the day, they're awesome.

I have been reading these since the first and I have to say the map looks great. I love the submerged walkways. If this is not on the disc please make sure you put it in your fileshare. Because I really want to play it. Anyway good luck finishing it!

Are Cody and Nick on the map?

  • 08.03.2010 8:14 PM PDT

Nice map! but i have a question/suggestion.Can you show off the flak cannon? You might put it in your map aswell.


The fuel rod gun?


Possibly... And the fact that the weapons list on this news post has no fuel rod cannon/gun but DOES have the "flak cannon" further supports this suggestion.

And well, I searched the Internet, and "flak" is defined as:
Ground-based anti-aircraft guns firing explosive shells; Anti-aircraft shell fire.

An image-search result for "flak". While this has been seen in Halo before as an AA cannon, it seems unlikely to me as this is not pick-uppable.
Something like this or this is more likely.

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

I hope there is a custom game search so that those of us without friends can test maps.

"Derek said that the submerged walkways were totally confusing and didn't add much to the experience"

Don't listen to Derek. I love the look of the map as it is and the submerged walkways add to it, I think :)

I will be downloading this one, I think. Kinda reminds me slightly of Construct, but I don't know why...

  • 08.04.2010 4:46 AM PDT

I saw the VidDoc on Forge world and googled around for some more video or something on it and found this. I looked at most of you're posts and I gotta say you don't give youreself enough credit.

I would definately like to see it included in the disk perhaps even matchmaking.

If you're interested... in terms of advice for solving you're problem of the people in the sunny side being open to fire, I think you should add some more rooftop for them and it'd be done at that.

Well actually the Flak Cannon was the internal name in Halo CE for the Fuel Rod Cannon. If you notice, the Anti-Air Wraith actually shoots the same, or very similar rounds to the rounds a Fuel Rod Cannon shoots. Also, I think it was announced that the Flak Cannon was not a new gun, just the Fuel Rod Cannon.
