Hey all,

In an attempt to predict whether people are going to like Steamedbacon's "Trepidation" map for CE, give me your two cents one which level size is your fav. Feel free to say why it suits your style!

Somebody likes me : )


I prefer "Fleet Admiral Bacon" GruntMaps.tk is at war with Halomaps.org (their forums), hence the "fleet" part (rank of Fleet Admiral reserved for time of war) I am Admiral in my mapping team, and due to a bet that everyone at GBX is now denying, I am "King" of Halo CE.

My favorite is small cuz you can just boom! in people's chests to give them the smackdown. Oh also does anybody like Ginormous cuz vehicles rock hardcore??!

I would have to say small to medium. I can't stand Infinity cause it seem's like there is always under 10 people playin, which makes for a slow and unproductive game.

Thats pretty much the purpose of this pole, isnt it?
To see if people will like my map... Wow.
Big maps = more space = more vehicles
Small maps = small area = more detail is possible.
Big = more area = more polies if detail is used
Which is why Trepidation's hallways are, and will stay, scenery.

Bigger maps allow for bigger things. THe point of hugeass was being able to take a longsword from one hanger to another and nuke the living -you know what- out of the other team. THough, driving a tachi' to the other base on camo-mode was more efficient and much quicker.

Esp. for halo pc, small to medium is the best....lower lag and less ppl!
Other wise....on halo 2 medium to big maps can be even funner, but hugea** maps seem to be just annoying to trravel around in. Well whatev!

Haha no problem Bacon I really think it will be fabulous!! To add to this discussion, I like the pretty big levels, wherein there is not too much traveling and traveling and more traveling in the hopes that someday, somehow, you'll find someone (though with enough people these levels are fine cuz that doesn't happen). The bigger levels have a good mix of close range combat, usually indoors, as well as more long distance and vehicle fighting along valleys and bridges.

P.S. Wow, that chicken is popular!

I prefer medium-size. By medium...I mean something smaller than hugeass, but bigger than beaver creek. Something like danger canyon or ice fields size is good.

I voted medium because i got lost on death isle

I love Medium size maps, you can snipe and brawl at the same time.

Zanzibar really rocks; it is totally awesome. It's just perfectly laid out for like, gosh, everything. But I also like Gulch (and Coagulation for H2 and CE) just because it is so simple yet so great for close and longe range.
