Oh wow, that structure in the background is amazing, I like this.

I MUST MODEL THAT.

It reminds me of The Pit, Construct, and Narrows some how...

reminds me of covenant awsomeness

also, go for it cls :D

Graphically speaking, there's too much going on. Too many intricate tech panels, lines, grooves, (and not to mention the LOLHUGE structure in the background) which (I feel) will be too much of a distraction to the player.

Looks good and all, but I have to agree with Nugga. Way to much going on. And with that Blam engine being so updated for halo3 well things get shiny.

:O

That certainly is a reddish purple. Like, Spectre Purple, not the usual covenant purple, as seen on like, everything else.

There are new maps coming out for H3!?!?! SEND ME LINK!!!!

YES YOU MUST NAOW.

IV posted before me D=

It reminds me a lot of high charity and midship. Can I make love to it now?

Hmmm, I've never played Midship before.

i thought this project was scrapped, but its nice to see that bungies making it, i cant wait for it to come out.

Yeah, the sexyness will distract the player and become a never ending chain death :(

Who, I ask, has said that that was in the background?

Wow! Why don't you wait to play it. Those pictures are sappose to show off those structures. Most likly no one will be looking at that while dieing in matchmaking. I doubt it will even distract your eye from the enemy.

Yeah what duce said. When your playing you usually dont stop and say, "Whoa look at that dense tech its so amazing and that forerunner structure, and that awesome normal mapped shotgun whoa! Its so amazing."

This is Awesome!

i wanna see video!

A THOUGHT:

Could it be a remake of:

hang em high?

or perhaps derelict? (A.K.A Carousel)

or... midship??

This map seriously shows off Halo 3's graphics capabilities, as well as the sheer awesomeness of Bungie's modelers. I mean seriously, this makes me step back and appreciate the skills of these people.

It's beautiful. It's already my favorite map next to Snowbound before it was fugged up. xD

I like the original shape of master cheif's visor. Made him look more b/a. Watching those videos reminds me of how much i hate the new models for the spartan suits.

Recently released was Avalanche.

thats forerunner

After extracting ascii characters from the most recent halo 3 update we had I found out the official new names of the new maps. They are Assembly, Longshore, and Citadel
. Also this map is actually a scarab factory. You will see scarab parts going through a gravity tube overhead and a giant tank full of lekgolo worms injecting worms into each part.

Cool structures in the background of maps don't distract people. Maybe when you first play it, but after that it's pretty much ignored. Like the ship on sandtrap. I have yet to assassinate someone while they are staring at that. Also I can't tell if that's a new map or a remake. I've herd it's midship but I have also herd it's gemini. Either way looks great.

Thanks for spoiling it, DEE... Ah well, I knew it was coming, now I'm all hyped!

So, thanks, I guess.

Anywho, it looks a LOT like derelict/desolation in that one area...
