silentshadowxp Posted February 28, 2013 Report Share Posted February 28, 2013 Map Name: Sigma File Share Gamertag: silentshadowxp Canvas Map: Impact Supported Game Types: Slayer, Regicide, CTF, King of the Hill, Oddball Best Game Types: Slayer Intended Team Sizes(s): FFA, 2, 4 Initial Ordnance: Incineration Cannon, 2 Beam Rifles, Hammer, Sticky Detonator (all set to respawn) Random Ordnance: None Weapons on Map: 4 Light Rifles, 4 Pulse Grenades, 2 Plasma Grenades Armor Abilities/Powerups on map: None Supported Vehicles: None Budget: 7100/10000 Screenshots: Blue Base Back Green Walkway Red Sniper Back Red Base Front Incineration Rush Red Sniper Bottom Mid Map Description: This training facility was once the cause of an intergalactic war. Trait zones: I used one trait zone to create an invisible ceiling for the map, and I used another than drains shields on a certain structure to prevent players from wanting to camp on it. Additional Info: Work on this map actually started back during Halo 3, before Reach was even released, though more in concept than anything else due to the limited capabilities of Halo 3's forge. I rebuilt it, and finalized most of the layout in Halo Reach, but I was never happy with it due to the screen lag caused by the location I forged it it. In Halo 4, I re-rebuilt it, with the main changes being caused by Impact's forge pieces. The name Sigma was chosen due to it's mathematical relation to summations. The map is the sum of many elements from past Halo maps that I loved. The main maps that I took the most from were The Pit, Guardian, and Boundless, though I pulled inspiration from many other maps as well. The reason that I chose Impact was mostly an aesthetic choice. However, this allowed me to take advantage of the map's unique forge pieces, which helped evolve the map to where it is now. Looking back on it, the map would have been completely different if it were forged anywhere else. I designed the map around slayer, and my experiences with the gametype in past Halo maps. However, I also set it up with CTF, KotH, and Oddball (my three favorite objective gametypes). It was also built around 4v4 team play, though I have found that FFA and 2v2 can be quite fun on the map. The initial ordinance is set up similar to The Pit's power weapons, but I changed it up a bit. There is an incineration cannon directly in front of innitial spawn points, and I used it to create a fun beginning battle, simiar to The Pit's rush for rockets. Instead of a sword, I chose to use the hammer, since it hasn't been featured on many (if any) Halo 4 maps (as well as my group of friends' tendency to scream "PIMP CANE!" anytime it's on the map. Instead of sniper rifles, I used beam rifles, due to a personal preference. I also added a sticky detonator, due to it being my favorite new weapon in Halo 4. Instead of having random ordinance, I decided to have the initial ordinance simply respawn. This is mainly because I prefer the old way weapons spawned. I also added a few light rifles to the map as actual weapons in order to prevent the screen from becoming flooded with ordinance icons. I considered placing an overshield on the map, but decided that it didn't work well. I had also considered a Banshee, but decided against it. The description of the map stems from a joke between a friend and I. He fired a blast from the incineration cannon into the sky, and I joked that that it would be funny if we were the accidental cause of the covenant war. Because of this joke, I felt it would be fun to tie that into the map in some form or another. Trait zones were used in order to balance the jetpack. There was one location that I didn't want jetpackers to reach, so I caused it to drain shields as a deterrent. I also used it to create an invisible ceiling to prevent players from using the jetpack in conjunction with the man cannons to launch themselves higher than should be allowed. I also decided not to use soft killzones, because I feel as though they detract from the gameplay experience. In short, it's a fun and simple symmetrical map that works well with multiple gametypes and team sizes. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also I could've added more gametypes other that inf. slayer but I'm about to run out of gold so I unable to add other gametypes. At this moment it can only hold inf. slayer.

Initial Ordnances: Sniper X2, Rockets X1, NeedlersX2 Random ordnances: Sniper, Frags X2, Railgun, Sticky Det., Plasmas X2, Needler, Shotgun and scattershot Map is built off cliff of Ravine so their will be a lighting glitch not concerning the map what so ever but the map functions the objects differently, so the if lighting seem to appear and dissapear it is the canvas' fault. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Charles Woods Posted March 2, 2013 Report Share Posted March 2, 2013 Map Title: POPULOUS Map Creator: Honored Forge File Share Gamertag: Honored ForgeCanvas Map: RavineLatest Updated Version Date: 3/02/13Supported Gametypes: Infinity Rumble, Team Infinity Slayer, Regicide, Capture the Flag and OddballBest Gametypes: Team Infinity Slayer, Infinity Rumble and OddballBest Team Size: 4 vs. 4Initial Ordnance: 2x Sniper Rifle, Shotgun and Overshield*Non-Ordnance: NoneRandom Ordnance: [Gravity Hammer/ Pulse Grenades/ Needler] and [Concussion Rifle/ Damage Boost.]Budget Used: 9405/10000 Description: The billboards are long gone with the war as are the people. City Sector-3 Locked down and became a refuge for the lost. It eventually formed its own government and established a new order from the chaos. It was peaceful for a time until the food supplies began to dwindle. Then through the citizens violent protests and murders it all fell apart. All the commotion brought attention to the city. People panicked and left Sector-3. The few that stayed behind were picked apart by the Arc soldiers. After that the "city" was marked as a dangerous zone. No one was allowed passage to the sector for fear of The Arc tracking travelers. As Mark Lengborne once said, "The streets had roared full of life and lights for miles. Now silent, they sit as reminders of the past."Map Info: Populous presents a unique rooftop combat formula that utilizes ladders, tack. jumps, teleporters and man cannons to get players from rooftop to rooftop. Each team has a sniper rifle and a set of buildings to hold down not including the three neutral buildings that are up for grabs in-between. Still the action doesn't stop there. You can also take your battles to the streets and indoors for close quarters combat. Overshield spawns in a drainage trench located below gold building and Shotgun spawns in an alley way central to the map. Control of the streets, and rooftops is key in winning. (NOTE: It was mentioned that there was minor frame rate when you stood directly against red gate. But it wasn't enough to hinder gameplay or map flow.) Thank you for considering my map and good luck to all who are participating. Keep up the good work Forge Community . Screenshots are in my File Share I forgot to mention each of the five ladders uses a trait zone that turns you blue (so you know it enacted) and increases your jump height. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No specific theme. Budget is maxed out. I spent over 3 months trying to perfect this map fixing every flaw possible. More budget and blocks would have been great though.Map Intel: An asymmetrical competitive map designed for fast paced combat. It has a mix of close quarter and mid-long range combat, but mostly consists of close quarter combat throughout the map. This map’s gameplay flows very smoothly and looks very aesthetically pleasing. Good cover and risk vs. reward scenarios are given in “Contour.” Also, the map is merged with the terrain very well. The main floor level is grass, as it is on Ravine. (Jetpack will be useful on this map)-Contour has no known performance and visual issues.P.S. PLEASE READ!!!!!!!!!!I am a young forger the age of thirteen. Now, I now what you’re thinking… “A thirteen year old thinks he can forge…pshh.” I have been making maps since Halo 3 and am very experienced and good at forging. I think for my age, and even for anyone’s age, the maps I produce are amazing. This is my second map I have created in Halo 4. My first one I made is used for 1v1 or team doubles. It is called Disgraceful and is on my file share Greasy BananaXx. But anyway, I believe my forging is good and would like to be noticed in the forge community. I have been a fan of THFE and Ducain 23 for a long time. All of my inspiration comes from them and they are the reason I am forging. Thank you and I hope I will win. This contest means a lot to me and would be amazing for a teen to win. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slayer, KOTH, CTF, Dominion & Oddball. 4-8 playersDoes this map use players trait zones? yes one. It's over head to keep player from jet packing out of the mapAdditional Info (optional): Sniper Rifle Respawn timer is 3 1/2 minutes, Rocket Launcher is 4 minutes, and Sticky Detonator is 2 minutes. ------------------------------------------------------------ I've made maybe a total of 5 maps in Halo 4 so far. I grab inspiration from smaller maps, community made or shipped with game. If I use terrain at all I usually end up with a map that is much larger than I wanted, so therefore when I create a map intended for 2v2 or 4v4 I have to use man made structure only. I started working on this map about a month after Halo 4 came out and then I left it half built and moved on to other projects. For some reason I didn't feel like it was going in the right direction. Then I got new inspiration and decided to come back to it. The general layout has stayed the same I just tweaked the bases and completely redid the spawns. I liked the open feeling of the bases yet at the same time there are many line of sight blockers. So I guess without further adieu, Enjoy.

Trooper376 Posted March 6, 2013 Report Share Posted March 6, 2013 Waterfront Fileshare Gamertag: DBC Berserker Canvas Map: Ravine Last Updated: 3/2/2013 or 3/3/2013 Supported Game Types: 4v4 Infinity Slayer and FFA Slayer Best Gametype: 4v4 Infinity Slayer Intended Team Size: 2-4 Initial Ordinance: 1 Needler, 1 Sniper Rifle, 1 Saw, 1 Rocket, 1 Fuel Rod Cannon, and 1 Shotgun Random Ordinance: N/A Map Intel: This is a multi-layer map that puts both teams on the bottom layer at first spawn. Both teams can go up to the next layer's and beyond in many different ways! There are many different power weapons but each has its advantage and disadvantage. Call in ordinance just like usual and use it to your advantage as well. This is a very small map and is built in the actual ravine on Ravine! It is just right above the kill barrier and makes use of the nice mist effects that the map has coming off of the water. The bottom layer is more open and the top layer is more structured with different points throughout. It is built to avoid camping and to change up gameplay every time. You can use this for a basic 4v4 Slayer or you can go and drop the teams for Free for All Slayer! Notes: I can't stress how it is very small. I wanted to capture the effects of that mist because it was very nice and the size of how big the ravine is, is why this is multi-layered. I know that you will get a kick out of it though! And I took advantage of that soft kill barrier by placing a narrow bridge below and in the middle of the first layer. It has one of the power weapons but you have to be quick! I also wanted pictures but I couldn't get any in the time that I had left so that is my mistake. I also didn't get that much to test it but I did some basic tests so I can assure that it can still be fun. Even if I don't win this contest, I will still probably tweak this map a lot and change up the weapon placements. Who know's, I could even add another layer to the map! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tur7le Posted March 6, 2013 Report Share Posted March 6, 2013 Fileshare Gamertag: Tur7le Canvas map: Erosion / Map title: Depths Map description: An abandoned pump station in the depths of a planet that was quickly evacuated during the human-covenant war. The station is now used as a training facility providing a real world environment and hazards. Behind the creation: I wanted to create something that looked different, a distinct environment not yet used in halo 4 multiplayer. I have always thought that the best maps are the ones that are aesthetically pleasing and feel like they tell their own story, just by looking at them. The kind of maps that, if you weren't being sniped, blown up, beaten, stomped, run over and tea-bagged, you'd stop to admire the view. The unique environment provided by 'Erosion' offered just that. A beautiful underground cave system with a mysterious green glow. Naturally a mining/chemical facility came to mind as a platform to base the map around. With no natural features such as hills, rocks and trees, I looked at the idea of a construction site as the basis for cover and map layout. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I created this acc after I was halfway through the creation of the map on my other acc Q U A R l S M A, hence why the map creator comes up as Q U A R l S M A and not A R C A S I U S however it is on the fileshare of A R C A S I U S.

jk artsy Posted March 6, 2013 Report Share Posted March 6, 2013 Map: Verticál Author: JK Artsy Verticál is a small to midsize map. It plays very similarly to Citadel or Ghost Town from Halo 3, and despite there being a lot of close-quarters, the map also supports long-range sight lines without being broken. There are several trick jumps, lifts, and if you're skilled enough, you can make it to the top of the map from the bottom with relative ease. Overview Overview 2 Overwatch Here you can see one of the skybox elements. Overwatch - Top Floor Overwatch - Red Base Connector Overwatch - Red Base Connector and view of the drop to Overwatch Lower Red Spawn Shipping - Lower Shipping - Top Floor Shipping - View of Outside More skybox elements Shipping Mid - Command Upper and Command Upper Connector Command Lower Command Lower's Death Pit Blue Base Upper Blue Spawn Overwatch - Blue Base Connector Central Lift Room Central Lift Upper There is also a tunnel (not pictured) that runs underneath Blue Base and leads to Command Lower. Random Ordnance drops in the tunnel. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
