Choot 'em Posted February 17, 2012 Report Share Posted February 17, 2012 Well I finally created my very first forge map! It's not complete yet as far as spawns, weapons, kill zones, etc. but structurally it's finished! I really enjoyed forging once I understood the controls and forge pieces and how they react to certain commands. I would like to personally thank Absolute Dog for all of the advice given and patience with me! I named it "Unabridged" because of the included bridges. It was either that or "Bridge over troubled waters" lmao!! Hope you enjoy!I will update as soon as I get everything added. Thanks again AD for the advice and tips!! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Absolute Dog Posted February 17, 2012 Report Share Posted February 17, 2012 Choot 'em I am happy to see your entrance into forging. I was more than happy to help. Until I see you in my scope........ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
♠ Spades N AZ ♠ Posted February 17, 2012 Report Share Posted February 17, 2012 welcome to the addicting world of forge. My only advice is create maps to enjoy playing new maps don't do it for downloads. Too many forgers get sucked into rating the quality of a map by downloads alone. Remember forging is art and art is subjective. Dog is a great person to learn from but if you ever need another source feel free to ask. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dog is a great person to learn from but if you ever need another source feel free to ask. Thanks for the advice Spades! I have no intentions of forging for "downloads" as you put it. I have always admired those that could create a map with forge. I never had the desire to forge but was inspired after playing on the contest maps. I don't expect the map to play that well, after all, it's my first attempt but it should be decent. I added a few "surprise" touches to the map. I've always been open to criticism and look forward learning more. Glad to know others are willing to offer their input as well. Thanks Spades!! Map update! Still needs work but close to being playable! added color to forge pieces initial spawns and respawns UNSC weapons with appropriate clip count & number available tested with AA's to determine kill zones 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Choot 'em Posted February 22, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 22, 2012 *Playable Update* "Unabridged" Description: Unabridged is a small to medium map spanning the locations of Alaska, Canyon, and Montana areas of Forge World. Set up to support all Slayer gametypes. Only UNSC weapons available. Possibly CTF and Assault. Red Base located in Montana. Blue Base at Alaska. Both bases feature a stationary Gauss Turret and Sniper Tower with an entrance to both bridges. Main bridge - spans across Canyon from Alaska to Montana. Two lane with divider and cover throughout. Grenade launcher located behind cover at each end along with health stations. DMR, Magnum, and AR spawns over bridge. Secondary bridge spanning across Canyon with shotgun, magnum, and AR spawns. Ramp and platform leads to man cannon and Rocket Launcher. My favorite is the advertisement of 343i.org at the initial loadout screen. Located in my fileshare to be downloaded here: http://www.bungie.ne...r=Master_Kensei As always, any and all input, positive or negative will be appreciated. Please take into consideration that this is my first attempt at a Forge World map. Hope you enjoy!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had completely forgotten about this map, lol! I'm not real sure if it is up at Halowaypoint but if you would like to play it, click the above link then sign in to Bungie.net and click "copy to fileshare". It should be downloaded once you sign into Reach. Thanks for the interest D4RK R3V3AL! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Choot 'em Posted July 31, 2012 Author Report Share Posted July 31, 2012 Word of advice when attempting to grab the Rockets..... DO NOT USE SPRINT, you will fall to your death, lol! And watch out for the Stationary Gauss turrets too, they are killer! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

firedune22 Posted August 2, 2012 Report Share Posted August 2, 2012 Welcome to forge, mate! I myself am a very experienced forger, being part of the review team over at Blueprint. Anyway, i'm always glad to see people trying out forge for themselves, and if you're interestind in improving your skills, here are a few tips: 1) your first map will amost always be terrible, it's part of the learning experience. 2) Don't be afraid to ask for help! Some very reliable and knowledgeable people that I personally know (well, over Live at least) are Haunted Army, Blaq Cloud, Stubborn Clam, Kbo00, NOKYARD, OTT2OWN, and basically anyone who's made their maps into Matchmaking. 3) There are plenty of great forging communities, but the best are Blueprint, ForgeHub, Xforgery, and sometimes waypoint. MLG and BTB.net are niche communities but have great resources 4) Get into test lobbies from these communities, you'll get ideas for your own maps, learn techniques, jargon, feedback, and get to know some great people Good luck with your forging endevours,. Also, a heads up, the forge communities are in a bit of a lull now, seeing at how we're about to end support for Reach and transitioning to Halo 4.
