Almost none of them are his and you can find them lying around the site/in maps if you take the time to look.

K then, let me rewrite my message. Sorry Dennis

Shadowslayer, though the pickup Icons are a bit messed up, it didnt really ruin my gameplay. Taking a second to look at the ground before picking it up shouldn't be too hard. Although needing to rush up to the center of the map to get the AI's attention, I find it very challenging. The tower and the tunnel in the center of the firefight is a great lifesaver. However, I hate those damned(I suppose this is not technically swearing then?) fuel rod grunts but they were challenging too. They just fired too fast.

Some GAMEPLAY stuff I want to point out:
I often find myself holding on to the rocket launcher and shooting the area where the AI drops down to save some work = Life Saver, Good thing

The Tower in the Center and the Tunnel thing is a great life saver= Good thing

The map is somewhat huge and that last grunt is hard to find = Bad thing

Shotgun is way too exposed, cant get it without risking lives = Bad thing

Respawning with SMG and Pistol, Ultra challenging on Legendary = Somewhat bad and Somewhat good

Respawning with the Sword Elite camping in your base = Very BAD D:(Wasted 5 Lives lol)

Minor Bug: The assault rifle in the base has no ammo...can you fix that in the next version?

And that's it. Overall, I like the gameplay even though you didnt intend to make the player rush out but it was challenging. I lost all my lives on Wave/Level 48

ok really its what shadowslayer has done is his best...even if the map is not very well done but at least its worth playing =D.....but i will hope for a v.2 of this....keep us update then killing each other.

In actual fact you are doing exactly that.
First off "h***" or "hell" is not profanity it is place some people think you go for using it. I tend to be secular about such things. Using Profanity is not acceptable in an open public space such as a school auditorium. a church or busy store. Therefore it is not acceptable in a forum accessible to people from all over the world. When the forum software prevents you from posting a message with profanity that is spelled out it is NOT acceptable to bypass the profanity filter by adding asterisks or changing letters to symbols or numbers.

I am being completely fair and totally consistent on this subject. I don't care how much or little you use profanity in your life, I use it as well on occasion, but it is NEVER to be used in public and never in this forum. if you don't know which words you can't use look up George Carlin's "seven words you can't use on TV" that will give you a good idea. You can review them while you are eating your cheese tits.

wut.

EDIT: oh, I see what you did there now.

this was definitely one of the two best firefight maps ever made (portent being the other one) don't worry about all these complainers, the reason you aren't hearing too many compliments is because everyone else is still playing the awesome map, awesome job shadow:)



also, are you making a v2 or are you going to start working on the boneyard firefight?
Edited by StatutoryTrOy on Oct 12, 2010 at 10:43 AM

Wait what? It's ON now.
Lol, but seriously... yeah.

i liked the map i just couldn't enjoy it because i have a cruddy computer and that map was already laggy on my computer so with the added ai just made it worse lol.

I Agree
but also...
COOL FACE

ftfy.

Map is somewhat buggy.
The jackals, grunts, and phantoms have their shaders set at 2 sided, which make your computer render twice as much and cause an fps drop.
Also the strings list and hud icons could be fixed to be assigned to the proper weapons.
The assault rifle at the beginning had 0 ammo in it.
The zoom on the pistol would not let you zoom back out, you had to switch weapons or fire for it to zoom out.

And the bipeds/h3 content could use some LODs.

i never tried b40, does it have the halo 3 tagset?

It has stock elites, rangers, phantoms, endless waves, well looped music tracks, edited stock tagset to be halo 3, brutes, descent ai and the the ablity to call in reinforcements.

In my opinion its one of the best maps made.

don't be a jerk, shadow slayer spent quite a bit of time on this map, and guess what, he released it, there is no perfect map ever made on halo, if you don't like that map then continue to do so in silence, because all this heavy criticism does nothing more that lower moral.

as for the firefight map, it is awesome, the map could have been better but hey its a whole heck of a lot of fun.

So you're saying Lodex didn't spend a lot of time on B40 Firefight, and it sucks because it doesn't have an H3 tagset? Also, MoooseGuy and gnademassica are not entitled to their own opinions about which Firefight maps are the best?

Cool.
Edited by doompig444 on Oct 12, 2010 at 05:38 PM

i haven't even tried b40 firefight so i wasn't insulting it, i just disapproved of the fact that he is running down shadow slayer for his work, and he is not entitled to flame people its in the rules.

Saying one map is better than another isn't flaming.

This is true.

but where you say it changes that, and i was speaking in general too, people need to be more considerate of the amount of time that goes into making a map

You are very wrong about criticism. All criticism does, even the harshest of it, tells you what is wrong and what needs to be fixed. It benefits everyone, not only the author of the piece of work.

man why does shadow slayer have so much haters i think his maps are cool but yeah give him atleast some credits because he took a very long time on making this map so respect the fact that he spent a long time making this but every thing just can be perfect.

just stop complaining, and quit being jerks, i thought the firefight was awesome if you don't have anything nice to say, don't say anything

heres what i thought:
omg look sexy firefight
:( pickup icons: wrong
(: awesome phantom
): take too long to pickup weapon
(: the carbine is good
): no wave indicator.
(: no overlapping huds
(: good armor
): WHERES MAH PERSONAL COPY!!!
): omgz when i getz shot moving foreward on teh chaingun thing i dont stop, then i die from falling
): NOT enough cover
(: decent enemies
/: AI's dont hunt you. this is good for sheild recovery and weapon gathering though.
lol no seriously GREAT FIREFIGHT MAN!

my other thoughts. oh this is weird, the pistol has that dumb zoom glitch. and then at wave 2 i started enjoying myself, so overall fun map. i just want my personal copy!

What is the point of a personal copy? It says your name instead of his?

Wow, soooo cool...seriously, explain this to me.

personal armor. usually i would do that myself but SOMEONE -_- had to protect it. i dont like protection. i know people dont want their tags in a crappy map floating in a terribly scripted square bubble and a 2.1 rating but still, i really wanted to test that phantom forreal. looks fun to fly.
also shadowslayer, i think this is a great map (: keep up the good work. its better that portent in a way that, i hate small spaces, and this map was good for a firefight, so yeah 8.9
Edited by disturbed on Oct 12, 2010 at 10:19 PM

It's not better than Portent. Portent had actual scripts and AI set up.

This is just Halo 3 weapons/whatever else he got his hands on, and a script that makes two dropships come from the same spot each time and drop off guys at the same spot each time, wherein they then just sit there and do nothing.

He said he hates small spaces.


You should release select tags from this.

let just said its a firefight that had been done badly but its worth playing it,expect for a few bug and other stuff,its kind of enjoyable playing it.

I don't think he understands the concepts of Firing positions yet.
