Ok, I'm working on a solo map. This one will feature cinematics, objectives, checkpoints, navpoints, and custom stuff. Its based in icefields, and then will teleport the player to a custom BSP with vehicles. Includes Ai who love to throw grenades and also boss fights. (With Elite commanders. I modded them so their health and shields are five times more powerful and they throw grenades.

Rough plot:
You are to halt a Covenant mining operation, in Blue Base, and Marines are stationed in Red base helping you. You start with an AR, grenades and a Rocket Launcher, after the startup cutscene.

Elites will immediatey begin to attack red base, and you're supposed to help your Marines clear the area of hostiles, then move on to the weird-bridge thing that leads to Blue Base, only to find out that the Covenant hhave blocked off the bridge with an energy shield and you are to find another way to Blue Base, whcih was blocked off previously.

In the area below the bridge, you will meet...the Flood! And perhaps a small cinematic. You find the Elites at Blue base being assaulted by Flood. You thoroughly obliterate the area of all enemies, and a cutscene will start. Showing Flood arriving at the base.

The Pllayer will have to fight his way through the Flood and Covvies back to the Red Base, only to find the Marines dead and Covenant in the area. A pelican that was supposed to pick you up for extraction is crashed nearby. You'll have to go through a teleporter, which leads to a second BSP, a large, winding, canyon. On the other side, a Pelican is waiting for you to arrive for pickup.

Screenies coming soon.

EDIT: Change of Plans. After having a look at my BSP, I thought it was too crappy. I'll use Dangercanyon.

Quote: what will happen after you teleport to the second bsp? more enemies.


That's what Halo is about, right? Fighting enemies.

I'll actually consider some of those names....hmmm.....Dead Intrusion and Infiltrate Operation sound good. I'll give you credit for the name. After all, it is the most important part of a level. Without a good and cacthy name, why would someone want to download your map in the first place?

No. Well, yes. But its not an energy shield. Its a giant-forerunner style door. You know what? I give up on the second BSP. Its just too complicated.

Why don't you use a different BSP?
