Well that's a start. Now try making custom content for Halo and more complex and diverse maps. Don't to wide open maps, do smaller indoor maps with corridors and rooms etc.

Also, it's not smart to use other peoples content in a map that it doesn't fit in. Take this map for example, you just through in all these vehicles without putting any thought as to why it should be in the map.

They're all box maps... All you did was extrude the ground and put a single texture on it. No bumps or anything.

make sure you redo the bsp in 3ds

(im redoing the whole a30 level...AI, Cutscenes, Triggers...you name it )

also.. i find it funny that a map that im flameing and everyone thinks is bad is getting more comments than a map i personally worked on balanceing for 3 hours.. and spent 4 on the bsp and 1 on weapon placement... thats sad..

and really the only person who goes hard on people who asks questions is... well the h2 xbox guys on that part of the forum... i dont get mad at people who are asking questions and want too learn new stuff.

Urm. well, it's mostly like all the other box maps copies of hugeass that went out recently. I enjoy the POA's scale, the fact that for once, someone thought about adding stuff on the ground(such as houses) and things like that, but the fact you can't see the nukes explode, that bases are simply "holes" and that most vehicles are ripped, doesn't work for you. Of course you are learning but sometimes not releasing something is better if you know how people will take it. Yes It's getting alot of downloads, yes it's good for stunts, but to the eye of those who make maps and know how the engine works, it's always hard to take it that very simple stuff still gets more downloads than combat maps. It's not like "obsolete" is balanced either so what'S left? stunts and RP. Personally I tryed RPing on it but couldn't get in the house because of modified player speed and weight. Kept bouncing off.

Bearing in mind the map makers made it clearly obvious that they're tag's could be used in other map's. Beside's, half of these tag's are on Halomaps. Also Hugeass wasn't as good as it could of been, it needed more scenery.

Well, pretty good, I kinda agree with Clancy, it need's work, maybe some more scenery, more weapon's, no Halcyon.

4/10 For effort and Attainment.

and the reason all those tags are on halomaps is because everybody ripped them and uploaded them.

Are you that thick? Obviously you are.

The map maker's put them there becasue they were getting asked why the Rip's started failing.

Actually it did, also Coldsnap is highly unbalanced, seen how strong the gauss hog is? Very, as much as I love it I hate it too, now stop arguing.

wanksta · Post by **wanksta** » Fri Jul 20, 2007 7:39 am

you started it.

and in coldsnap every vehicle has its downside. the mythos is powerful but if something gets behind it its dead. and the gauss hogs take 2 people to drive so they getmore powerful. and also the hogs are easy too kill.
it is balanced and the snipeing is hella fun.

i cant belive im up this early. thank god for coffee....

Actually, those are my Halcyon-class cruiser tags. He didn't model or tag any of it.
