Is playtesting open to everyone?


Basically yes. Anyone is welcome to test the map. I'll run lobbies tomorrow to test it. I'll also have it on my file share for others to DL and play with their buddies.


Invite me or have the map be doomed to fail.

You're in league with my 11 year old cousin who is hogging the TV at my Aunt's house?

Huh? Oh that's what you meant? You should probably remove the box with the wires coming out that's duct taped to your car's gas tank then.

What? I'm in a normal modern house with electricity in New Jersey right now. I don't know what you're thinking of.

lol my keyboard must have backspaced over the 12am I had written in there.

It'll be late I know. Had to run a few errands.

The good news is those who can will be able to download it and play on their own time, or at least give initial feedback. I'll be up for a while working on a walkthrough.

Hmm.. Not trying to steal any concepts, but how do you plan to do vehicular combat in an urban environment?

With only Mongeese and Ghosts. Although the current layout may have a Scorpion.

And also. The same way ODST did it.

Alright, thank you for the quick response. Do you know if the entire 2/3 phase is as narrow as the first was in the preview?

Both videos in the OP were concept demonstrations that were made to show that OP could design an area to look like ODST in Forge. Neither is currently in the exact layout that OP said they would hold open testing for in the next ~20 minutes.

Sweet. You seem to know a lot more about this than me.. One last question. Do you know of any green terrain (using the non-deletable stuff like cliffs and varios things) that will be in the map?

Sorry for the late reply this time. I don't think he used any of it. He stated multiple times in this thread and a previous one that none of the grassy areas felt right for his map to him.

Thats fine, and I would have to agree. Unfortunately... Gray can get boring but Im confident goat should be able to make a decent map.

I have transcended appearances and only care about a map's overall layout.

There are lots of things I don't like but I don't hate the game.

I hate CoD and therefore do not play it.
