Halo 4’s Solace was one of my all-time favorite maps. I love the way it looked, the way it played, and even modeled my spartan and signature to reflect it:

Empathy is my Halo 5 version of Solace. It’s not perfect, but I’ve spent a ton of time on it and put a lot of effort into trying to replicate the feel and layout of Solace. Watch the vid, check out the pics, download the map and let me know what you think!

 

And don’t forget to check out my other two Halo 5 Forge maps, Mists of Time (a remake of Destiny’s Shores of Time) and Inspire, a map inspired by a Halo 4 campaign level.

Inspire – HD Halo 5 Forge Map

 

I’ve definitely caught the Halo 5 Forge bug. Inspire is a Halo 5 Forge map that features a moving gondola that traverses along three bases. This map was inspired by a Halo 4 campaign level, and works best to capture that same feel using the custom gametype Moving Stronghold. Inspire is also set up for Assault, Capture the Flag and Oddball, and has Multiteam spawns.
Man-cannons on two levels allow players to access each base. The lower man-cannons shoot teams high enough that even when the ship is out of reach of the cannon, they can ground pound down onto it.
Although each aspect of the map is simple, I enjoyed creating it and the challenge of scripting the gondola. It’s a blast to play on, and I really like how the colors turned out, and the vast Promethean feel.

Halo 5 Tips: Exploring Jumps on Tyrant

Halo Diehards members babe ruthlessx0, Aimless Gohan, Wuzz Ranger and I went into Tyrant, one of Halo 5’s newest Arena multiplayer maps, a few days ago after a game. We went through the map to learn jumps that will help us navigate more efficiently in the heat of battle. I recorded the session so we could share what we found.

 

Halo Diehards are Forging! Introducing Mists of Time

I’ve just finished my first Halo 5 Forge map, and am excited to share it with the world! Introducing Mists of Time, a remake of Destiny’s multiplayer map, Shores of Time.

Special thanks to all the gamers in the video from Creative Customs, hosted by o Nondual o, for your support and inspiration. Also want to throw a shoutout to my long-time buddies and Destiny multiplayer cohorts Rowboat 000 and BigBadMike, for helping troubleshoot issues with the layout. And to fellow Halo Diehards member Free Radical for asking me to redeux a map of his, which is what caught me the Forge bug!

Here’s the video. Watch it naow! It’s only 3 minutes…
