Well HI!!! Its me again. I am happy to present to you the Silver Map Pack. It’s been a long two months full of strife, annoyance, and well fun. I had a lot of issues when I started from both the forge and my life which delayed this project twice. Well I’m here and I am determined that it will be released. I had some issues with my video so I couldn’t post that here but not to worry I decided to move forward without it. That will come along soon but nonetheless here you are.
Over the last couple of weeks I have spent a long time perfecting each one so that you could enjoy each one to its fullest. I recently released the second version of Observation Post, a Map originally in the bronze map pack. A few issues came up after its release, such as frame rate, and exploits that I hadn’t seen before. Those have been fixed.
But back on task, The silver map pack. With this map pack you get 6 maps to play competitively across all game types, with the exception of grif ball. The maps are of varying sizes but if your lobby isn’t big enough to start just simply begin playing on one of the smaller maps and I can almost guarantee your lobby will start growing. From playing Extraction on Erosionasa to Dominion on Intact, or whether you enjoy Capture the Flag on Hillside Compound or just Infinity Slayer on New Terra, these maps will satisfy your craving for both competitive and casual game play.
The development process was long and difficult between classes, writing two books, and family related things, the project took 2 whole months almost 3 to complete, having been delayed twice. What started with 3 maps based around a single game type, evolved to 6 fantastic maps that carry their own weight and play many different game types, 6 maps of beauty and elegance that come from long sessions in the forge. I like to think of it like smelting silver. The temperature must be just right or it turns to dross, useless, a waste, and unrecoverable. So without further ado I present The Silver Map Pack, that’s been smelted just right, available today from my fileshare.
Our first map is intact. As some of you may know this map took the longest and was by far the hardest to forge. It was a good map to start but with about 120 hours worth of work, I think I might be down selling it a fair bit I’m sure I spent longer on it, but this map plays CTF really well and supports dominion. This is not a 5v5 map. This is an 8v8 map. You can play with smaller teams but it won’t work as well.

The second map is New Terra. This map was one of the easier ones only requiring a few days to get completed. A few tweaks here and there and bam! It was done. This map supports all game types but I highly recommend either Infinity Slayer, Extraction, or Dominion.

The third Map Choza City Plaza. Feel free to kick back and relax. The map initially had a central grav lift that shot you across the map but it was removed as it was unreliable and broke game play more often then it worked correctly. The map is a great addition to any extraction fans.

The Fourth map present is Hillside Compound. Initially called build 5 it was my fifth experiment on Forge Island. I enjoyed building this and was told it reminded people a lot of halo 2. Well I’m glad so many enjoyed it. This map supports all gametypes except for dominion. What do I recommend? CTF, Slayer, and King of the Hill.
