the new maps are okay,but i still like the original versions. The main thing I HATE about the new maps is the fucking special FX they fucking suck dick. It's way too dark and annoying, as well as almost completely unnecessary :\
Player vs. PlayerFirefight with infection Gametype and humans can pick up weapons and zombies have multiple loadouts with sprints in all so kind of like a firefight mission but with the infected are the flood and it be like a flood firefight or you could download my flood firefight 2 is the map with its Gametype flood firefight I sent you an email to the email address in your forge the future video but just incase my Gamertag is SingingPanda96
Insanmiac, just as an idea for an infection map, try to create a small town in the canyon where the main way of transportation has to be warthogs and mongooses...
@cantkillme358 I don't want to sound like a kid or anything, But I also have a few maps I'd love to test. And can't get enough people to join aswell. I was wondering if I could also add you. Or be part of your "map testing team" My Gamertag is "xXELL 97Xx"
I still think the biggest problem with infection maps is that they reward camping. The goal is to create a map where it's almost impossible, if not impractical to camp. I still think there's a lot we can learn from each other if you need an extra hand on a project. Message me on live!
Make a big team battle map,costly using the environment (obviously) but make it somewhat inspired by Caspian Border from Battlefield three. For an infection map, make somewhat of an insane asylum.
oh my god i thought i was alone i absolutly love area 51 ive easily beat it about 15 times that game is amazing....the main charecter is voiced by david duchtcovy or how ever you spell it and the voice of the ghost dude is voiced by marilyn manson.....speaking of witch you should do a map based around area 51
Make a bord walk map like with the stale and shops And stuff I did a make like it but u can make it WaY better and put guns in the shop an ya it be awesome
Ive been trying a map idea.... Unsuccessfully. :/ It would basically be a jungle type of scenario, or at least very natural map, that COULD be made on Ridgeline, and would be a map where the humans spawn next to a crashed falcon/pelican/etc. in some sort of pool with a waterfall, and have to move through the map which is filled with "ancient" ruins and overgrown structures while the zombies spawn in between the humans and their multiple paths to the best holdout structures. :)
Another simple map idea could be an Area 51 type Warehouse scenario that is very large and open, but filled with human vehicles, crates, boxes, forklifts, etc. and there could even be multiple connected warehouses, although maybe short outdoor connection points or something like that. Just something else you could consider. And there will always be an easy theme for that kind of map. :)
@Insanmiac. You could make a map called West Nile, where, it's mostly ruins, bit maybe you could add in some normal buildings, just make sure there is, at least, a shallow water source going through the middle of the map that you could walk it, to keep from camping on other side.
i got ideas a shopping mall, a resturant, a city, a bank, a military base, an island resort like dead island, a school, the raccon city police department , a mansion, an airport, a car wash, an indian camp, an amusement park, i'll be psyched if you do a train, a farm house, megaton from fallout 3, a casino, a castle, a palace, a spaceship, a strip club, a prison, a YMCA, a basketball arena, a hoetel, a store-walmart, i'm not giving suggestions i'm just saying there still tons of things to forge
Just got an infection map idea! A high school. With multiple rooms with the barricadable doors and vents as secondary entrances. If you like it, if it isn't too much to ask, could i help work on it with you? Im already on your friend list. I get if you like forging aline and i respect that if you dont want me to help. But it'd be cool if i could. Messege me on xbox if you like it.
maybe you should forge an abandoned oil rig with a heap of pipelines & areas that you can jump onto by going on crates, also there could underground passages built with rock to get from each side of the map without being spotted by zombies?
you could get some inspiration of the mw2 map, 'rust' & 'the rig' by xdarkxassasinx.
you could make the actual map small to medium sized but with the height advantages and underground passages it'd seem big!
Personally I like the original maps, at least the Cage. If your whole team doesn't work together on Cage, all humans suffer, and I like how you need to function as a team to live. However, Reflection's modified map is awful, all of the others I don't mind too much.
As for map ideas, you could make a beach resort on the Island on forge world. You could make a few buildings like a hotel and a parking garage/lot, and a pool with chairs and umbrellas, etc.
oh and if that last comment seemed rude let me just say I extremely appreciate there being people who stay in the custom content community for Halo and continuing to make Reach a fun experience. I know you do it more for yourself than others, but it's still much appreciated.
Feels a little more equal? It looks like the humans actually have a fucking chance at surviving now. The nature of infection should always be inequal, and thank god this playlist was finally given some quality maps.
as i was saying then at the back of the foyer on the first floor you could access the kitchen and from the kitchen you could access a bathroom. up on the second floor you should make an attic. the zombies should be able to spawn up on the roof and be able to access the attic around 2 minutes in the game. i made most this map but i couldn't finish it because i got stuck around the kitchen and attic but i know you can make this.
i have an idea i was working on a map were you are held out in a beach house and the zombies don't spawn till like a minute later and every 30 seconds in that minute it gets darker and when its completely dark the lights go on in the house for the foyer and for the front of the house. i was thinking that the foyer had 3 different areas a storage room to the far side the bedrooms above the stare case on the second floor i will post another comment stating the rest.
Ok, (productive forge came up with this, I am only expanding) a zoo map, where, you can see the bars from the cages all destroyed, and there is like, an old gift shop, and the entrance/exit is blocked off by rubble. Ok, you know, like, on the lion exhibit how there is just a big pit, and on the bottom is the lion and grass? You should do that, obviously, without animals.
omg that makes me feel Old...i use to play that during my kid days. oh my idea is an Excavation map in a quarry where the survivors have found a secret that should have been kept buried, Survivors start near the hive and must escape to the surface where they will have more protection
Yo insanmiac add me my gamer tag is sinskit. and ummm dot add period lol -. But really I have cool maps like your but u are better and I'm in a clan of 30 people and I'm the general which is 3rd in command of the two leaders and I do our map designing and we are called the assasians and I'm a fan lol love your maps and I'm sad that I can't play
Of the new living dead maps, Bedlam is great, but it sucks that no-one votes for it. Deadwalk is about the same as the original. Spooky Base is perfect. Powerless I haven't played much of, but it is a lot better than the original. Uncongealed is terrible, its way too easy for the zombies and the destroyed look is an eyesore. Bedlam's destroyed feeling is awesome, but because Uncongealed has it's own environment, it looks and feels like a 6 year old terrible custom map
@Farai117 I actually kinds of like deadwalk, with the removal of the low-side base. Spooky-base and Powerless are also pretty good. I agree that Uncongealed looks pretty awful, but at least it plays a little better than Cage, which was probably the most broken map in the playlist, next to sword-base, and the now longt-time-removed Pinnacle
@Insanmiac I guess the problem with the Cage is the roof campers, mostly. All they really needed to do was just have Uncaged with a few broken sight lines, like the long bridge on the side. That was something Uncongealed did right. The destroyed look and the breaking up of the corner elbow was unneeded, unless the zombies were stupid and went in one at a time, it was already a challenge to hold out there. Parasitic looks almost exactly the same as Zealot. Remade Reflection is a lot better though
i just wanted to know something real quick insamniac, how are you such a high rank and stillmake so much forge maps? you dont get alot when you forge, so how did you become such a high rank?
@Insanmiac Hey quick and important question where do you get all of your playtesters. I make infection and slayer maps near to or arguably as good as yours and when I make a map I play it through by myself and find most bugs, but I can't truly test it with the little five person crap parties I'm able to scrounge together.
@Insanmiac Thanks :] I just started playing halo again (had a small break from it) and when I went into the living dead playlist there was only slightly modified maps there, like spooky base and deadwalk

Honestly I am opposite to your opinion. I actually think most of the new maps are worse then the original but some are better.
Uncongealed is better
Spooky base is better
Different Zealot is better
Everything else is no different or worse
Worst one- Deadwalk
