Halo: The ring.

Hey I started up halo today and I noticed those big circles on the HALO skin (backside grey area) and I thought " that would be a really neat map!

So here's the idea:

The map is is on/in one of those big circles on the outside of halo and down is away out into space away from halo. Well there is a bunch of big rings dropping out from the ceiling of the level (down is out, with the gravity) the edge of level is the biggest circle or edge of the circle and it has walkways all the way around the ring. Plus many, many, many sqaure windows looking toward the center of the circle.

The map is huge with many rings all the way going to the center about halfway away from the edge of the circle there is a ring with two sides on looking towards the outer edge on towards the senter of the circle. Then there are more increasingly close rings that go out further from halo (down). At the center is a huge circular tower that goes down out into space.

This map is perfect for sniping, and all other game types. Going in between the rings are a series of bridges and tunnel bridges going to the center of the circle.

Races can be held racing in towards the center and around the rings. CTF can have two seperate bases at either end of the circle (way outer edge) with passage ways going all the way around the circle. KOH can be held perfectly because the central tower can be the center hill and the two main bridges leading from the outer edge can be the hills.

I'll make an image showing the map:

Image
This is the side view the purple red (or pink color if that what you think it looks like) color is the highest up circle with docking ports for banshees.
Image

There are teleporters from the bases to the banshees ports (4 of them).

The outer ring is not sticking out from halo it is dug in to the outside of it.

Who think this might be neat?

Oh yeah a covenant starship could be underneath the map (sky) way down.

EDIT: I edit to much... but what do you mean by "qaulity"?

Seeing as those circles are part of Halo's final weapon, I wouldn't want to be walking on them. And scaling them against the ring, they must be at least a few hundred kilometres in diameter. Good luck. :roll:
