Subject: I want to hear your opinion

I've made a map a month or two ago and I've been told by semi-famous YouTubers, such as iflod101, and basically all of my friends on XBox LIVE. I never get constructive criticism on here, all I hear is "Oh this map sucks" "ah it looks stupid" "Trololololol", and I was hoping you guys could give me so reception of this new map I made, I spent a ton of time working on the aesthetics of this map so please take a look at it:

Map: Redemption

Gametype: Invasion: Redemption

Sreenshots (Remember these were taken in the first version of the map, I've made changes): Elite POV

Spartan POV

Thank you, Narwhal

I won't be on for a while but when i do I'll give you some feedback. Just by the looks of it you may want to put more cover on the map for the people trying to take the objectives

So basically... Waypoint is pro-vanilla?

Posted by: Sentox6
Waypoint isn't pro-anything so much as they're just anti-intelligence.

It appears to be far too open.

Hey, uh, if you like vs threads, then check out this little group right here, if you have the time. It's pretty fun, just hop right in.

Opinions don't exist on B.Net.

But it looks bit too spacious. Try adding a bit to the center.

Looks pretty cool. Judging from the screenshots, looks too open though.

On the first wave its actually pretty confined, which does disapoint me. But the open areas fit really well with the vehicles. Oh and don't use that link, its and older version. I gotta find the new one.

Squeeze the map a little bit towards one side or add rocks/barriers

If everyone had a plasma rifle as their cross map weapon and a shotgun for CQB map would be perfect...

But as it stands, IMO; far too open.

Aight, just PM me the newer version or update your OP when you find it. I'd love to add it to my circulation of maps :)

My opinion dosn't count. It's all about how you feel about your map. That is how become a true forger.

The 343 forums suck. They're full of retarded kids and mods who got butthurt in the B.net forums for being told that they're bad.

The screenshots don't show a good view, but from what I saw it's too open, like what others said (especially at the end, by the BFG thing which looks nice).

More screenshots would be more beneficial to people that don't have access to their box to download and look at it.

PLAIN, looks like making a Covenant AA and Low budget pelican was a complete waste of my -blam!- time

you asked, and I answered. No need to be angry, just make a better map next time.

  • 02.27.2012 9:32 PM PDT

Guys remember, like I said above; this was a early version of the map, there is a lot of stuff added in the most recent update

I wasn't mad at you, I was pissed because that's a 2 months down the drain

im the best player that has posted ITT. Regardless of that, just keep revising it. There is no need to scrap 2 months, just keep working on it.

Shoryuken!

Mythic Mode Progress on Reach:
Winter Contingency, perfection.
Other levels in progress.

I like what you did with the AA gun, however, from the screen-shots alone, midfield seems a bit too open.

Honestly, this is a good cover up for all the idiots who won't know its a cover up .

That AA cannon looks really bad.
