Hello everyone, this thread will feature a map I have been working on for a few months now, and finally have finally decided to put it out there for feedback from the community.
om·pha·los
ämfələs
noun: omphalos; plural noun: omphaloi
1.
the center or hub of something.
“this was the omphalos of confusion and strife”
a rounded stone (esp. that at Delphi) representing the navel of the earth in ancient Greek mythology.
Omphalos is currently a symmetrical medium sized map that is fully set up for 4v4 and 5v5 Team Slayer, and has the potential* for CTF and Ricochet.
*If someone could help me set it up for either game type, that would be amazing. I would give you some credit here for the help.
I suppose you would like to see more pictures, so here you are!
Looking down on Mid.
Another view of the Middle.
Blue base.
Red Base shown from the opposite direction.
Green Hall.
Yellow Hall.
Omphalos has many routes to be taken. I have been told it could make a great CTF map because of said routes.
What the pictures do not show, are the walkways that circle around the center of the map. They are close quarters, and are best viewed by downloading and playing the map yourself.
The Explosive Barrels that are inside the center tunnels work just like they did in Snowbound in Halo 3. Shoot at one, and they all explode. Enter at your own risk.
Currently I have just two weapons that spawn on the map: Sniper and Railgun. Please leave feedback on weapon locations whatnot.
Thanks for reading! You can find the map in my file share, under map variants. Thanks!
