Why did I have a feeling that it would get "suspended"?

You aren't the only one. No worries--once the maps start testing you can ogle at them all you want. My aesthetics are my strongest point.

Suspended, not cancelled. The latter would imply that I gave up, which isn't true. I've just simply put it aside so that I can work on projects that would be finished in a shorter time frame. 3 months is too long to work on one map. I could have built 2 simpler Invasion maps in that time.

Now onto the UPDATE:

Found a way to reduce wall usage on the Sentinel Wall I was planning on including in the map, so I might be able to use my original indoor concept after all. Now I just need to figure out where I'm putting the map. I need an interesting space for vehicle combat. Otherwise I might just build indoor vehicle combat and set the map as an extension of the Quarry. It's that, Alaska, or the Canyon, the latter of which is where I've built the wall draft.

Hmm...

Goat, in reference to you wanting large spaces for the vehicles, might I suggest looking up some of the cityscape maps built around Alaska? I seem to remember a couple of them worked exceedingly well. Their design made the area feel like entirely new spaces, and yet still gave enough space to the player by extending the surface of Alaska. I'll see if I can root them out.

EDIT: This is one of the particular few that I was thinking of, though I recall bitpart some of the other maps in that set he's set up.

I think you misread the thread. I'm the one working on the maps, not 343i. All we need from them is a reduction of the max party size in Invasion so I and other Invasion forgers could hopefully add a few new maps to Invasion.

I'm really hoping to keep them in. I think I just dropped Pistons though. Light bridges just require a death pit, which can be built easily. Pistons, however, require a large drop down, which I can only build on alaska or the quarry. I might move the map to the canyon, and it would require a huge elevation change for me to include pistons in a canyon design.

I'll keep trying. I gotta run everything by my co-forger though and he barely gets on. I think he'll approve of anything I build though.

I made the walls cheaper by adding spaces in between them and incorporating brace larges. This way I save walls.

Brace Larges are actually $50 a piece, but I'm using quite a few so your number is about right.

I didn't necessarily make the walls cheaper budget-wise. I just made them cheaper wall-wise, meaning I use less walls to make a...well, giant-ass Sentinel Wall.

Well I just built a concept on the quarry and it's just much too small for this particular map. The ODST map would work better but this one needs a wider initial battle field.

So it's between Alaska and the Canyon. I can section the canyon off well enough so that it doesn't feel like Hemorrhage. It's just a matter of what structures we want to include and what sort of combat we're looking at.

Either way the aesthetics are phenomenal. I don't know how I do it but I've got the CE feeling packed.
