This firefight map plays similarly to the classic ODST firefight. This includes procedural waves, a boss wave at the end of every round, enemy dropships and vehicles, and skulls to increase difficulty as you progress, with the addition of two elite honor guards to help you.
Since the gameplay side of things are pretty much done I need some people to test and tell me how the difficulty and rebalancing is. Also with this being my first mod for H:CE any critique would be nice.
In terms of credit, the only thing I made is the map geometry and scripts. All other tags were downloaded from Halo Maps and belong to their creators. Also thanks for those in the form who have helped me with scripting

I haven't played the map yet but from the video it looks pretty fun. It's always nice to see a custom bsp in a firefight.

I will try this on Sunday :)

Its always nice to see custom bsp work nowadays, looks good

It's fixed now. I'm new to the forms and didn't notice the button. Sorry about that.

Like all FF games i'm not such a fan of being to nade spam the enemy as they enter or spawn.

FF decent got around that as the rounds escalated due to the varying spawn points of the enemy and also the sheer scale of the bsp relative to the usable cover points.

If you're referring to the video were in the beginning I spawn killed a group, that was just luck. there are a total of 8 doors they can spawn out of and you can only hold 4 nades total, I have decreased the rate as well as the amount enemies drop them. I will also try and to do something to the turrets so they aren't as over powered. If you have played the map and it still seems like you can nade spam enemies, i'll see what I can do further to decrease nade spamming.

My first impressions:
Pros:
* Variety of enemies, I was certainly surprised to see marines fighting against the player
* Custom BSP, does need touching up and better variety in textures but overall it doesn't need anything too drastic
* Weapon layout is pretty good

Cons:
* Lack of music, gunning down enemies can only be fun for a certain amount of time, there should be something playing in the background every once in a while to keep us interested. Listen to this for some inspiration: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BDtqTgwUUtE
* Uninteresting skybox, the CAS Assault Carrier in the sky doesn't exactly serve any purpose other than looking pretty since there isn't a story to explain what is happening

Overall it's a good start, 7/10.

Thanks for the feedback.

If you fight for long enough you will be fighting spartans with the marines.
music and skybox is being worked on but having a little trouble with them.
both the pelicans and dropships come and go from the carrier giving it some purpose.

Thank you for playing it and I'm glad you like it.
