Title says it all. We have a map: Wraparound is more fitting for obvious reasons (Forerunner structures, also we might be able to turn on nova for the light effect). Someone would have to analyze the crap out of the player traits like player speed, damage and what not. We should base the gametype off of the gametypes from Anniversary classic.
Let’s replicate Halo 4!
I will make the map, others can join me or make one of their own. once you’re done with your map gametype, contribute it here and we will do a manual vote to see which one is the most fitting. Then, we will make 343 play it, and ask them how close we were.
As Killergrunt1337 mentioned, I edited the existing Wraparound map. Firstly I must say whoever made it paid attention to very minute details in the trailer, and recreated it fairly accurately.
They did seem to miss one thing though.
Several times in the clips, it shows Spartans jumping in from the sides of the map, as if launched or thrusting.
I decided this must have come from a man cannon on a lower level, which I forged in there with a few extra weapons.
These are:
•Gravity Hammer
•Plasma Rifles
•Plasma Pistol
•Plasma Launcher to replace Rocket Launcher
As for the lighting;
Nova was way too bright, even for a solar facility, so through trial and error I combined 4 special fx to create as close as possible to the Halo 4 look.
I also fixed some aesthetics, including the giant floating thing in the background.
Updated version should be on my Fileshare soon (after beta-testing is complete).

Yeah, I know… I guess I’m just out of ideas for forge
Sure!
Ok so we’re gonna create the game right now
Just request either of us and we’ll add you to it
We’re gonna wait a bit till an adequate amount of people join
I made that map. It’s also the same map I used to make the Wraparound screenshot that made “Screenshot of the Day” here on Waypoint and Facebook. I did study the crap out of the “First Look” video to make that map. The version in the link was made from the map I started.
A guy named Francis was really eager to make a youtube video of it for his channel, so I let him have my unfinished copy of it, so he could finish his own version for the video. My intentions were to make an exact replica of Wraparound. I had to hault the construction of the map until 343 released more gameplay videos.
I still like the idea of working with a team of forgers to make a community interpretation of Wraparound for all of us to enjoy, so count me in if you want my help. There’s quite a few things I had in mind for the map that I think the real version has in it.
My friends list is full, but if you send me a message, I’ll try to boot someone and add you.
