SHOCKWAVE - By Greg 'ultraSick' Porter.
This is my first proper map. I spent about an hour and 20 minutes on this making sure it was balanced and had no advantage to each side/team, totally equal and fair.
When I started making this map I wanted it to be very MLG based like Amplified and Onslaught but I wanted to make it feel a little like Warlock from Halo 2 but as I started making the bases I started thinking that Beaver Creek was really good because of the two way teleporters which meant you always had to watch your back when you were at your base - I decided to go and mix both - Each base (Red base/Blue base) has a two way teleporter that takes you to the back of the other base much like Beaver Creek.
Also there is a Rocket raised up and Sniper opposite raised up too similar to Beaver Creek. The rest of the map, ie the middle and "battle-zones" are much like Warlock with the centre having a powerup and both teams being able to get there just as fast as each other. I was going to put a Mauler with the OS but I thought I'd just leave the Sniper and Rockets as the only power weapons. There is a few BRs and Carbines scattered around along with some Frags.
I am still working on this fixing all the imperfections.
Hopefully this gets noticed by some MLG people and they take it into consideration for a MLG map.
Check the screenshots in my Gallery or Recent Screenshots @ Bungie.net.
Remember to download the map and try it. I hope you enjoy it.
All suggestions for improvement welcome.
