Eidetic (Eye- DET-ik)

[Jeff is I]

I started building this map probably a week before the Mythic Map Pack released so she is on Foundry. I wasn't really going to finish it but I got bored one night and went back. Eidetic is a symmetrical map, 2 bases, one large middle structure and kind of like a side platform. Mauler spawns on the top of the map and custom OS spawns below it under the awning. A street runs along 3 of the 4 walls on the map. There is a staircase in each of the base's tunnels. Some of the glitches are sloppy, I know. If I get good feedback from the community I'll go back and clean it up.

You just had to steal from Amplified didnt you?

[Jeff is I]

I took the wall blocking off the Foundry garbage, the rest of it I built myself?

[RoboticUnicorn]

Knossos: QQ

OP: Doesn't look like a circuit map but it looks nicely forged. Good effort.

[TrojanWarriorX]

Soo, what would go good with this map? Slayer, Oddball, etc.

[Jeff is I]

It's only set-up for Slayer at the moment.

[PulseKiller]

I <3 stairs to nowhere.

But on a serious note (<3 Tak) you shouldnt have stairs leading to nothing and taking another map's blockoff really doesnt make any sense considering the blockoff is very easy to do.

[Jeff is I]

I guess that is serious enough that it needs to be brought up, clarified, then brought up again.

[uurrnn]

I think it looks pretty cool. I'll test it out.

Thanks for being a smart-ass, but I was just telling you that you might as well build your own blockoff because then you dont have to deal with people saying that you stole it and all that stuff and it is very easy to do.

Ignore the fool guy, cmon.

And by "people," you mean you?

[WheezyMoney]

he was actually the second person to bring it up. so he means other people too.

ot: what's with the stairs to no where

Shut up....

really it's a block part of a map he used...


Stop causing drama and stick to the thread leave feedback or stay out of the thread with your nonsense...

hey douchebag threadmaker dude guy. You make map threads for criticism, thats what Pulsekiller gave you, but you decided to be an asshole. So really this map is bad, theres my criticism. Stop making smartass comments back, people like you are why these forums suck sometimes.

Jesus F****ing Christ, these petty little arguments and tempertantrums are the reason why all the juveniles in these forums show their true colors and why the community will never grow and be a respectable collaboration of effort.

All of you Salot haters need to chill and grow the f*** up, let him be and let him do his own thing. He doesn't get in the forums everyday and bash on you about how often all of you post, or of how many sketchups that are made, but never made into maps does he?

If anyone actually knew how to move forward as a community other than a few people, you would actually realize that using other blockoffs if they are material saving saves an assload of time in making the rest of the map. I, personally would be proud to have anyone use a blockoff of mine in their map. Also nobody actually owns any of the forging they do so stop complaining if someone uses your template. There is a reason why you agree to the Anvil license when you forge. Everything is property of Bungie.

On topic: This map isn't really that good in my opinion as far as gameplay and design goes, but it's definitely a solid start for a newer face. Though, I do have to say, stairs leading to nowhere = nonsense.

[Jeff is I]

If my thread was entitled "Flame Here" or "Use Me to Post Complaints About a Fellow Community Member" you guys would fit right in. But seriously, can we stay OT? The staircase to no where is just a staircase, I didn't figure it'd be an issue. Apparently it is, I'll exclude it from future maps of mine.

[I_Knossos_I]

Stop it.

Oh and btw i can tell from the pics that you took more from Amplified than youre admitting, the stairs to nowhere (lol) are a good example.

[I_Knossos_I]

**** you.

Go do something useful, like forge a map thats actually good.

Seriously, lets all chill.





OT: I definitely think that this is a pretty good start.
As aforementioned, there are a couple of nonsensical things, such as the stairs and blockoff, but regardless, this is definitely a workable map.

I dig that you cut the LOS from base to base, which is something that isn't seen in many 2 bases.

[tigaer]

the design is good, the exucution of it isn't that great. i like the design and layout you have, but how you built it isnt doing it for me. you should try doing this in the skybubble on sandbox, i could see this layout working very good if you turn the bottom floor into catwalks but kept your layout of the top floor and add some rooms onto the sides.

...you should give credit to fritzster for making half your map. heh

[The_Phuria]

oh no it's contagous....dot dot dot...dot dot dot....

JK the map is pretty cool for your first time forging and designing and don't worry about the bumpiness clean forging will come in time after you forge more.:grin:
