Sandbox Survivial on the Wasteland

Obibital · 12-03-2009

Finall it has been completed!

Survival on the Wasteland has far surpassed my expectations on enjoyability and is my biggest project to date
(Horray for self achivement!!)

If you dont like reading, go to the bottom for the video

Basically

'Keys' are located in the area under the kill balls

There is an 8 Min Time limit

Little Weapons and ammo, most comes from enemys.

VIP Team
The point of the SotW game is to find one of the two keys (power drains) from the map and bring it to Raven Rock (Red Building) to break open the fusion coil door.
To do this you need to reach several basic requirments
1. TeamWork
Like most of my games, this one involves the use of team work or it will simply spell DOOM.
2. Use of cover
Because this map covers all of sandbox's middle floor you are going to have to use all the cover you can get from the bombarding Hordes of enemys. your sheilds recharge very slowly and if you take damage GET DOWN.
3. Watch the VIP
In large games the likelyhood of your VIP being assasinated is greatly increased. you may think "Its a huge map, Well See them coming a mile away!"
WRONG
Although that may be mostly true, if you only stay in the open you will be killed, even more so if you are not the VIP.
When in buildings you may be attacked from several locations, so always make sure your VIP is safe.

Enemy Hordes
Hello evil attackers, your job in the wasteland is to stop the VIP from getting to the your main base (Raven Rock)

To do this you are equipped with numerous weapons and bases, along with several Vehicals

Your team must also have Plenty of teamwork to bring the others down, along with smart use of weapons and attacking all at once instead of one at a time.

LOCATIONS
Locations can be defined by the direction from when you spawn, Left or Right.

LEFT PATH
Some Say this is a simpler path, more cover, but less convienent. Lots of Vehical Danger and attackers from all around.

Start Point

Take a left

Small Home

Greay Cover point for the first attack

Radio Station

Take Cover in the building for the Warthog Attack

Rubble Bunker

Machinegun Turret inside, break it, then use it on the Hogs'

Enclave Base

Can be defended pretty well, KEY LOCATION

Void

Be ready for this, a well planned attack could spoil you fun

Final Stretch

Still be careful, have a sniper take out anyone on the turrets

Raven Rock

Run for it!!!!!
Throw the Power Drain inside to blow up the door.

RIGHT PATH
The Right Path is actually more difficult
Although the key MAY spawn right there, theres minimal over on the path. But there is Vehical damaging weapons.

Start Point

Take a Right

Raider Infested Town

GASP!! a key RIGHT THERE!!
Also Infested with raiders
And it might not spawn there.

Warehouse

Get in for cover, Use the Plasma Pistol Inside for taking out Vehicals.

NOTHING
Lots of empty, little cover

Small Bunker

Sniper Rifle..... Thats it

Raven Rock

Use the Power Drain and Get it

Finally posted, eh?

So much testing was involved in this one, and I'm sure the map has changed a bit since I last had a game on it. However, I can say that it was a fun map to play on, and the experience tends to change around every game.

Great job Obi, I'll download this later when I get on Halo 3 (from your file share directly, of course).

I remember testing this with you great ideal love this game 5/5, teamwork is a key that some people need to learn and this map can help you with that :) the only flaw with this was the spawning did you fix it ? whatever, its a geat map.

Looks really interesting and i agree with what everyone else said it looks like a high team oriented game which is always fun. Ill dl and try to play it. It looks really good.

PS is this at all related to borderlands???????

concept is very nice, could use some help with your buildings though. hey if you would like u can pm me and i can help you forge some of your buildings. anyway, its pulled off but yeah going through your buildings there are little flaws. 3/5

I remember testing this out and I was in the video! First time.

It was really fun to play on, and you had to be really careful, especially with those warthogs. You can't let them pin you. It's pretty hard to kill the attackers, and if I get the chance to I want to play this with a bigger team. The only thing I don't like is that it's really hard to kill the warthog, especially if it's pinning you down. There isn't too much cover, so it makes you think about where you go and how you get there.

Anyway, it was a really fun game and I'm glad I got to test it. Oh yeah, I like the repeat since I was the one who raped that guy with the special class.

I love your Fallout 3 reference! In fact, the title was what lured me to the map in the first place. It looks like a great tactical map, will download and give it a go.

OMG look what the purple dinosaur brought to show the class. =) This is a fan fav of mine obi Why am I not in the Video Super sad face. =(
Great map and very fun

Yay i just went back to playing fallout 3 and was thinking about remaking part of the fallout map in halo. you did one better and created a whole game! looks fairly similar to fallout but the forging only looks mediocre, cool gametype though :) if you think its worth it i would suggest making a V2.
