Hey, so. It’s been forever since I’ve actually came onto the forums but I’ve been busy playing Halo 4. Anyways, one of the few things that bother me is the complete absence of any custom games (or maybe it’s because I only have 5 friends on XBL and only 1 of them is consistently online) so I wouldn’t mind trying to play some games with people!
These are the maps and gametypes I’ve made if anyone is interested.
MAPS:
Lateralus - A huge map that incorporates elements from Rat’s Nest, Temple from Conker’s Bad Fur Day, and Paradiso from Reach. It has a ton of places to hide and ambush from but it also features a massive ring system for people to drive around on.
Reconstruction - Another map of mine that sort of ended up being massive. It was supposed to be a remake of Halo 3’s Construct but I sort of kept adding to it until it became a BTB map.
Torrential - A work-in-progress that is a remake of Waterworks from Halo 2. I’d love to get some feedback on it so I can keep perfecting it, though!
Foundation - A near-perfect remake of Foundation from Halo 2. (Couldn’t come up with a better name, though, sadly.) Unfortunately it’s not made for anything other than Team Slayer and Infection for those nostalgic “H2 Zombies” and “Team Sniper” matches.
Castle Wars - A classic map remade into something…better. For those who are uninitialized in Castle Wars, it’s CTF on a tiny linear map and everyone is armed with Energy Swords.
GAMETYPES:
Tactical Slayer - A perversion of the SWAT gametype I made that involves the introduction of other weapons into the SWAT formula and Ordnance Drops that allow you to use Power-Ups and Armor Abilities. You have a shield, but…one shot and it’ll disperse. Thankfully it recharges incredibly quickly if you can get out of the way in time.
Plague - A variant of Flood I made that allows more variety in weapon use and a longer lifespan for Humans at the cost of much more efficient and powerful Flood. Think of Save One Bullet from Halo 3.
Castle Wars V.2 - Well, self-explanatory for the most part. Charge into people with your sword drawn and hope for the best. Now add turrets, railguns, catapults, and armor abilities.
Binary Slayer - The Action Sack gametype! I didn’t create it but it’s definitely one of my favorites. For people who haven’t played it, you get infinite Thruster and you’re armed with a Binary Rifle and an Energy Sword. Oh, and no radar.
Assault - I basically ghetto-rigged Grifball into the Assault gametype. It’s been around since the olden days and why it was taken out I’ll never be sure.
Sorry if it was a pain to read but I’d love to play with people on my maps and I’d also like to see what everyone else in the community has up their sleeve. Customs have been my absolute favorite thing about the Halo franchise since H3 and I feel like it gives us an edge over a lot of other shooter games out there.
