Which is really a shame because you said you've been working on this for a while.

It looks really neat though. But I can't really help much because I didn't play Halo 2 ^^
Assuming you're talking about me, you're wrong

Actually he has a chance to beat me before I finish it... see I have been in the process of getting a job as a lifeguard, getting certified, the whole shindig.

However there are many... many flaws I see with your map. Unfortunately, many of your dimensions are wrong. For starters, the ring that encompasses you map is too low. After actually popping in Halo 2 and getting exact dimensions, I realized you need approximately 3 wall heights to replicate the upper level. Secondly, your turret block is all wrong. It should look like a symmetrical pentagon, not a square. The middle area seems to hold the same issue that many other foundation remakes hold, it is too high. The walls underneath the blocks angled need to be geomerged, otherwise the turrets won't be able to shoot over the middle area well.

And, why are there random blocks in the 'blue' room. Yes, I know you can get up in a crevice by jumping on the different things, but dude.. don't just throw blocks in there, build the actual ledge that you can jump up onto. I've already replicated that part of the map.

I hate to say it man, but it's half cooked. You obviously have the skills to perform such a remake, however you did not acquire appropriate information to accurately remake this map. While other people think it's good, in reality it's insanely far from the original foundation. There are many things out of wack, including the stairs. The stairs are actually about 1.5 stair widths, not 1 stair width.
