Yello, need some people for some Underwater Map Forging. I have the map, there is about ten feet of water that you can actually be UNDER and live. It is irregularily shaped, so that might be a problem, but it's a MAP THAT'S FREAKIN UNDER WATER!

Purple Food can attest to it's legitimacy, and I will have Screenshots posted of it as soon as they load to my Bungie.Net profile.

Screenies:








And, the unfortunate dimensions:

How did you make it under water??

Haven't yet, just got a blank slate that needs forgin.

Honestly, I have no idea how the dude did it. But it works somehow.

Okay...
I've been thinking on it.
From what i can tell they guy who made the original got outside of the map somehow and found some high ground (still underwater) where you don't die.
Around that he built a small wall to mark out the boundries.

This template could be used in zombie matches to even our the sides between survivor and zombie.

Quite honestly, I don't care HOW he did it, I'm just nerding out that he did it.

So, I think we have two votes for a Zombie Map, mine and Purple, what do you guys think?

Hey...
Wasn't i the red fellow in those pictures?

No, unfortunately my dad decided he wanted to play a different game before I could take those pictures, and when I popped Halo Reach back in, the video was gone

Yeah it deletes movies that you don't save once you turn your xbox off.

Yeah, especially in those last two minutes or such, when we just started killing eachother.

Do you think we should give humans or Infected Jet Packs, as that decision would impact map design.

Why would Infected have Jet Packs? Because it's beginning to look alot like Fish Men.....

Fish men versus not fish men...
Not fish men get... shotguns and DMRs?
Fish men get swords and... Evade? Sprint? Camo?

Maybe classes of Fish Men? Jumpers would get Jump Packs.

Also, not DMRs, pistols preferably; DMRs are too easy to use, and I prefer my Zombies Headshotable with massive Damage Resist.

True that. Above water might be a bit of a problem, though...

Good point... maybe have a maze above water? With holes to drop down into the water where the fish people are waiting...

I like.

We planning on having it where they have to move around or hold out?

Having them move would be cruel... so lets do that.
I'll have a think about a layout for the maze and what kind of... dangers we want to add.

it would be a wicked cool infection map

I'll start building a map and game type.
We'll rope in the DRA squad for play testing...

Ok, tell me when you need me online for helping with the making of the map.

Also, Dakka RA? Dakka Reach A?

The dakka reach awesome squad.

Ooooo, what am I, since I brought us an Underwater Forge Map?

By the way I have been playing Heroic Firefight with limited ammo though all I do is camp on a rooftop with a sniper rifle and run around the place scoring headshots alot of the time. i love no scoping Generals XD

But anyway awesome game type wish i had live so i could play on the map.
