Update: I don't know why, but I forgot to mention that the gametype is NO GRENADE STARTS. You can't just play your FFA on this, the gametype has 100 less downloads then the map, not fun.

PLEASE READ:
Hey, I'm Bnasty, been forging for a while but this is the first map I actually finished. As you may have noticed from the pictures this map is small, thats because it's not your normal map, it's a BR Warmup map. I didn't include that in the title because then people would think it was a circle with shield doors, but its quite different.

I had an idea for this a long time ago, I just didn't think anyone would be interested until I saw a thread a while back with the same idea, so I thought about it and came up with this. Kids camping at S3 with sniper on guardian ffa's wasn't getting me warmed up, so I thought about what would and the layout just came to me.

I've put a lot of brain power into this and I've perfected the geometry, lines of site, and gameplay in general. I don't really feel like explaining what I did to manipulate gameplay in a certain fashion, but I can tell you that this map is a great warmup that requires aim, cover, peekshooting, and some strategy which makes for a great warmup.

There is currently no weapons on map besides one frag that doesn't spawn at start, but every 30 seconds, feel free to change the starting weapon if you want to practice something else like carbines (oh wait Bungie. . ). Speaking of, the kind folks at Bungie decided to ban my fileshare, so the screenshots/map/gametype are on his fileshare, but once he removes them you can't download, so if anyone will host please contact me.

The gametype is normal MLG settings except for no team, force color white, 110% shield recharge, 5 rounds score to win 5. Some of you may be curious about the last part, but it's with good reason. Starting a new round goes to black screen, everytime Halo 3 is on black screen it picks a new host, this changes up some of the unfairness of this (which I can't do anything about besides this really). If you don't like it you don't have to, it's just not as fun if your shooting a sponge. Enough talking, here's some pics:

High side tower (it's not bumpy, just looks bad)

Middle structure/ Frag spawn (cuts off lots of high sides angles preventing domination and spawn killing)

Sup Bnasty, I see you updated Axis a bit from back when we played it. Really unique map to get warmed up on. I just got internet back so hit me up on xbl :)

[HITtheLIGHTZ]

Ahh that double box was a really smart idea. Now I can't stand up at the top of the map and out br you on spawn with my awesome host.


I'll dl later.

[CR0553D]

Dude this came out saweeeeeet! And don't worry I dont plan on taking this out of my fileshare on you.

[iM_xZonKeD]

Nice job B. With all of the time you put into this you finally got it all to pay off. No matter how many times you said you were gunna quit you didn't and look at how good of a BR Warm Up map you made. There were earlier versions with bad spawns that you spent endless hours working on but all you had to do was change the geometry when half your map randomly gets deleted LOLZ. Well good work with everything and thanks for the thanks from sitting in lobby with you for like 7 hours total and testing and giving you ideas =P.

[bnasty574]

Thanks guys, thanks zonked. I forgot to mention you guys, but I owe you a enormous thanks, ect ect.

[Zanno]

i can 100% assure that you host does not change on a round restart blackscreen

i decided to play SWAT in a BR warmup map once and that more or less settled it

[Baron Saturday]

The changes you have made since I played this with you are sweet.

Looking forward to playing this later.

Looks solid Mr. B

from my observations playing it, i'd have to disagree with you, it doesn't change everytime, but every now and then it does, and that's better than nothing.

thanks for all the feedback.

[bnasty574]

changed the post. DOWNLOAD GAMETYPE.

[HITtheLIGHTZ]

Have you addressed that one spawn trap wheezy found?

[bnasty574]

don't plan on it.

I love 1v1 maps, this one looks the best out of the ones i have downloaded but i will deffently have to run games on it to see if its the best cause i have some pretty beastly ones.
+rep :)

[INovaK]

I'll DL this... I probably won't play it at all until I get my 360 fixed though =(

[_TaK_]

forgot to post my opinions on this a little while back, it is a really good map but personally I think that the corner should be a bit lower to provide a bit more cover and also, there is one double box that is not flipped upside down and I always wondered why??

[Winkleson]

Good job looks good I'll try it 1nce I get my box back

[Nokterne]

Just thought I would let you know, the links are broken due to Bungie updating the file share system on their website.

[xxtheslayer]

looks pretty sweet. anyone looking to run games on it send r slayer t a fr

[HiThereHeroin]

YARGHHHHH!
This map is sex.
Honestly, I can't put it better than that.

[R_A_W_K]

I have been looking for a br warmup map for a while now. Thank you for making this. :-)
