Download Takedown: Project Lawson http://haloce3.com/matthewdratt/maps_tdpl.html Feedback: http://takedown.co.nr So, what do you guys want to see in Takedown: Extermination? I know a few things but what else. In terms of anything really; bsp, story, gameplay, characters, ect. -Danger Canyon. The majority of Extermination will not take place in the canyon, instead, the map will be using custom bsp. -Voice acting. The rush to place in everything at the end screwed me but I'm still proud of how my voice acting came out. Since I plan to get all of the voice acting at the beginning of production, it should much easier to get redos if needed. -Enemies. Enemies will have a more specific role than "new color is just for show". -Allies. A "rally point alpha"-style portion will be featured in Extermination, with new and returning characters (All skippable as normal). They may also appear throughout gameplay rather than just appear at the base. -Gameplay. I plan to split up the basic trio of Lawson, Karner and Kadar. Maybe you'll be alone, maybe you'll only be with Lawson, or maybe some of the other Lawson troops will be with you. -BSP. Although a lot will take place in a canyon, I plan to add more forerunner and covy style areas to the bsps. Thoughts, suggestions, ect?

Do it like GTA V and let us change POVs between Lawson, Karner and Kadar during gameplay or something :D

Well, I really didn't mean it that way. I was thinking that, once you're done on let's say, Lawson's part of a situation, then you'll automatically switch to Karner's POV. Either that or have all three of them be on one area and the player can switch to Lawson, Karner or Kadar anytime they want. Not sure how that'll work though. It's just an idea, because Open Sauce :/

I waited for so long to do this! I had some ideas. Most of them came out during Project Lawson itself, but the description at the begining of this topic gave me more:
1) About the division of the squad, don't just separate the characters. Divide the story in different points of view, like Bungie did for the Master Chief and the Arbiter in Halo 2. This will also provide a longer experience.
2) More scripted boss battles. The Enforcer and the Brute Chieftain in Project Lawson were brilliant. Seriously, a scripted fight is definitely less boring than just emptying your magazine against a bullet sponge.
3) About boss battles, I hope you're going to use a Scarab, since you showed a little demonstration of a cover system for a Scarab battle.
4) Exploration. I loved the first part of the mission, in which you could explore the base and talk with the other spartans, but I'd love to see some investigation in an open area. Something like the beginning of "Winter Contingency" in Halo Reach, or "Requiem" in Halo 4.
5) I noticed that in Project Lawson you used tons of Mass Effect songs. I approve this choice, and I'd like to listen "The fate of the galaxy" in a prologue and "The view of Palaven" during some battles.
6) I don't know if you're going to reintroduce the Flood again, but if you're, use a darker atmosphere for their encounters
7) I know that this would be really hard to do, but I'd like to see a difficult boss fight with an Elite. Not a simple boss fight, something like the battle between Chief and the Spec Ops Elite on the Ascendant Justice in "Halo: First Strike". I'm asking this because I love the Elites, and in Project Lawson they didn't have enough space.
If I'll have more ideas I'll post them here. Hope it helps :D

Add some Easter eggs in the map for all of those explorers. Maybe a gun that shoots rainbows which obliterates your opponents because they're overwhelmed by you fabulousness.
