    Embarcadero

    Oh, hi guys. It's been a while. I've been working on a new Big Team Map. A few of you might remember a map I made a long time ago in Halo: Reach called Embrcadero, or perhaps the Halo 4 version Embark, my Halo 4 map Breakwater, or the H2A remake Wharf. All of these maps had different layouts...

    ...I mean, I do like Halo to be balanced. The fun of having a BR gets kind of outweighed by the fact that you can't peek out anywhere without getting pinged from across the map, Warthogs become far less effective, and other stuff like that.

    Warthogs, BR's, and Valhalla is pretty classic, iconic BTB. But BR's weren't hitscan back then, and it wasn't so easy to kill a gunner out of the turret of a 'hog with a spawn weapon, let alone people across the map. Halo 5 is a different game, and in this case the old balance just doesn't work...

    I'll be testing Aerie for slayer again. I took off the Wasp after realizing that I just don't like the thing much for 4 v 4. I thought it had weaker shields and armor than it does. Plasma caster moved to old Wasp spawn which is now a steamy gravity lift, shotgun moved to old caster position...

    Data Lost [Feb 26, 2017] Squally's Sunday Skirmishes - Halo 5 (XONE)

    I'll be coming on Sunday to test out my new 4v4ish map, Aerie. It will be set up for Strongholds but I figure we should start with a Slayer game just to see how it goes, and if there are no major issues and we get to a second test we can try out Strongholds. So yeah, apparently I still forge...
