Gametype: The Herd

This is Hershel's Farm from Season 2 of The Walking Dead. This is an aesthetic and a Flood map. I spent three days forging this map on Forge Island to be as close a replica to the actual farm from the hit show.

 

The map is a free roam, Last Stand type map where the humans are unable to jump and must coordinate their efforts to stay alive. The "Walkers" (moving at 75% speed) actually move slower than the humans (moving at 90% speed plus sprint) do but their ability to lunge more than five map units make them a threat still. The gametype also makes the "Walkers" 500% more durable, but still weak to headshots.

 

The Last Man Standing gets a significant damage boost that makes it very difficult to kill him in the end so the "Walkers "will have to overwhelm him with numbers. There is a lot of open space in this map aside from the three story home and the barn itself. The home has three stories with a porch on the ground level, a small balcony on the second story, and a large balcony equipped with a sniper at the top. post-81154-0-82939500-1400015085_thumb.jpg

 

The barn has two stories. The ground level where the "Walkers" will spawn initially, and the second level that has a sniper rifle and two energy swords. The Humans can reach the higher level of the barn using the ladders on the outside and inside, but the "Walkers" will only be able to get up by using the lunge ability. Since the "Walkers" spawn inside the barn occasionally, it is a dangerous place to try and hold out.  post-81154-0-73441000-1400015089_thumb.jpg

 

The Humans will have a waypoint over them to make up for the slow speed of the "Walkers" and the openness of the map. I would recommend at least 10 players on this map up to however many you want. Three "Walkers" will spawn at the start of the game with Alpha flood benefits such as the same speed capabilities as the Humans.

 

With the people I have played this map on, they really enjoyed the gameplay of it and also the ability to reminisce to their Walking Dead days. I really hope you all download this map. It's tons of fun.

 

With genuine Abernathy,

The barn and the farmhouse look incredible. I do, however, see some potential problems with the map. Mainly flatness and lack of variety. I think the map could use more structures and cover. By the looks of it, the farmhouse and the barn are the only structures. One of them being a Flood spawn. If you wanted this to be a free roam Flood map, you need to give humans more options and places to hold out in. I also suggest fixing the extreme flatness of the map. You could do so by adding other structures and maybe hills with the use of rocks.

 

I even see problems in the gametype itself. 500% health for the Flood is not a good setting. You don't want your humans getting frustrated because it's too hard to kill the Flood. Even if headshots are enabled, the Flood health needs to go down.

 

As a Flood map, this map needs work. As an aesthetic map, it's freaking brilliant. Hope you work on the Flood gameplay man. This map has quite the potential.

I have to admit I was blown away by the aesthetic detail of this map it captures the walking dead game feel and look really well.

 

Really well done I think ( Of course the gameplay need changing as said by Zan above )

 

But apart from that it is a really well done map from the looks of it and finally really shows ( to me ) What the Halo 4 Forge is capable of producing. :)
