Subject: Bone Yard v2 progress

some older pics cause i'm too lazy to render some newer ones, it will take a while to texture it right but i think it should look very nice once done, its going to be for halo 2 vista (where i work in) and i am giving to some friends of mine on the rfu/h3mt who are going to in turn make a halo ce version of it.

How's it going to play without objectives though? Although your remake is looking great to my untrained eyes, the actual map was pretty poor.

what are you talking about the original map was amazing, i never got to play on it i just did this off of pictures, but i watched a lot of videos, it might have been a little too big for small games but none the less very epic, i think it will play pretty well with the halo 2 game types it would be nice to have invasion though, but with the new main menu mod we can change the model of the objectives so i think i can make an invasion game type out of ctf if i get the spawns right.

How can you call it amazing if you've never played it? It was horribly designed and the game-type was tedious. It was like a poorly thought out UT assault clone that underwhelmed in every area.

the only thing that was poorly thought out was your comment, are you trying to hurt my feelings, by saying that i don't know anything because i haven't played on it? now lets assume you were in the beta, i know more about the map than you do thats a given i know equally as much about the map as most bungie employees do, and i have watched a ton of games and seen how they play out from different perspectives, an i can say beyond a shadow of a doubt that this map will play out well, think before you post man;)

Yeah. That's right. I don't have a 50 in H3. I never got Onyx in Reach. If a game sucks too much, I won't even bother trying for such trivial "accolades". Besides, I've done way more things that take far more skill and talent than anything that can be done in a video game.

Take a deep breath and remind yourself that he's a H2 player. Those guys love terrible gameplay like fat kids love cake.

This is the average H2 Fanboy.

50 in H2/H3? Great, but you still fail at this.

Yeah, I tried playing the first h2v port. And it sucked.
It sucked in reach beta too, as I went back to playing the other playlists in the reach beta.

And so that you can see if it looks any good when it is complete, this is your answer.

Use Valve Hammer, UnrealED, the HEK for CE, or the CoD4 SDK if you want to make better maps.

Meanwhile, Powerhouse has been ported to CE, and it looks better then h2v boneyard.

Hurt your feelings? I told you your work looked good. I simply gave you my opinion on the official map.

I stand by what and I said earlier and still believe that you can't get a feel for a map without actually playing it.

bone yard v1 was the first map i ever made, so duh its not going to look good, but even still bone yard v1 looked better than powerhouse, which by that way i'm also fixing up that bsp and textures for, v2 is going to be everything that v1 wasn't its going to be extremely accurate, its going to have halo reach vehicles and weapons and most likely halo reach hud and maybe biped, the textures are going to be more accurate.

now if you think that i don't know enough about boneyard then feel free to ask me anything about the map, in every map there are going to be areas that are over powered, the heatmaps show that, i am going to let a few of my friends play around with a beta and if any area is too overpowered then i might make a modification in the weapon layout or vehicle layout.

now dusk how about you tell us the name of a map that does have good gameplay, and for the record fat kids don't like cake they like twinkies
