---------------------------------Update-------------------------------
Asphalt ver 1.02 current as of December 12th.
http://www.bungie.net/stats/Halo3/FileShare.aspx?gamertag=SS% 20Crow -Slot 6
I have fixed the Spawns that are outside the map as well as adjusted some of the neutral spawns.
I've tested it out on a couple of rounds, it seems to play better than before.
we've been able to clean up our budget so that we can place down some additional weapons.

Its still possible to get out of the map, but it won't be quite as simple as it was.

Have Fun! and please let us know if you find anything that is problematic with the map.




----------------------------OP-------------------------
I have to say, I am impressed with the amount of crates and Budget that was required to pull this map off.
Its pretty true to Turf.
We had to make some sacrifices on occasion due to budget limitations. But make no mistake, the significant points are still there and all the paths and ledges are intact.

We played 1 Flag on this map. It was greatness. Felt exactly like Halo 2.
Stopping the flag at the scoring point and returning it in Zag1's Face was hilarious.

Overall, its a bit smaller than Turf, but it makes it faster. some of the lines of sight are more open.
Overall its a less campable map in our incarnation.

Anyone who liked Turf in Halo 2 should download this map. It is definitely forged (heh) with love and care.

Sadly, it felt exactly like Halo 2. That moment when you jump off the sniper ledge and down to score the flag.... Annnnd....

Bam. You see that little red dot to your left, and you're dead about 2 seconds later. I must say, it was amazing, and I kept surprising myself at the nostalgia I was creating every moment during that map.

And boxes. It was forged with giant boxes, I think.

That tuna sandwich was amazing. But not as amazing as this map. The map is incredible -- so true to the real thing. Nice job!

That's not a terrible idea, but...

Asphalt is more like.. "I'm going to grind my opponents face into the asphalt."
"I'm going to grind my opponents face into the Astroturf" isn't as cool.

:D

Good suggestion though!
And yes, we're aware "Turf" was more in the context of "Gangwar turf". I think. You know, and old man yelling and shaking a cane off his front porch, "Get off my turf, darn kids!"

I see what you did thar.

heh thats definitely something to consider.

Zag1, do we ammend the name in the eventaully fixing that may happen to this map?

We could nail down the exact same respawn times on the weapons as the original.

We could change the name. I'm liking Asphalt though. It's got a nice hard name to it.

>_> Do people care that much?

I suppose we could, but it already seemed to play very well as is.

The problem with Midship is that it's very round. It's hard to make rounder maps play well with boxes, but they seemed to do a good enough job..
Turf, on the other hand, is very boxy, and plays out great with.. Who would guess... >_>

Boxes! :D

After playing this map some more.
I am wondering if we should change it from a guass to a Chaingun Hog.
and maybe there is room to consider Mongeese.

I'm probably not here. You can probably find me on Twitter or Whisper. Also, CAVX.net.

This map rocks.

Whoa, pretty good amount of downloads. If you guys are curious, I just took quite a few more screenshots in a big 1-flag CTF game.

Be sure to check them out. :)

Also, it occurs to me that the spawns don't work for other gametypes. (yet!) 1-Flag CTF is the only one at this point, sorry to say. (A few others might work, see what you guys can get)

Amazing map, but sadly whenever I attempt to use it for other game modes (try to host rockets or swat variants) people tend to spawn outside the map. Tried to figure out why on the forge but my forge skills are limited at best so I failed. :P

If you think you have an idea as to why people are spawning there so I could fix it myself for other variants, I would really apreciate it.

But other than the initial spawn outside it seems to work fine when you get back in to the map.

Again very nice map, thanks for the hard work.

It's true what they say...

Wow, Nice Turf Remake.
