Default Aurora.



Enclosed team-objective map based on aspects of Ivory Tower.




||Description||

2v2 - 4v4

Aurora is an interesting map for me. I spent about 45 hours in total on it. when i drew this map out on paper it was a little bigger than what i came up with. This is in part that when i finished the wall outline of the map, it came out smaller than i thought. i reallllllly didnt want to rebuild the whole wall, so i decided to give it a go.

I set it up for mostly Team-oriented games. FFA Slayer works well too, but the layout lends itself better to teams. it has the defenders base on one side of the map, complete with sniper hall-tower-thing, and on the other side, the attackers base... which is actually oddly done, but it works well. Sniper rifles were included for tactical reasons. I know its a small map, but there are several long corridors that the opposing team can come flying down. Additionally, you can try your luck picking them off from the catwalks. Its not supposed to center around them, just add to the possibilities. There are all kinds of levels to jump from. BR lovers may like taking down their friends on this map. Maybe they wont. I'll let you download and decide for yourself.

REVIEWS and BUNGIE RATINGS would be pleasant. =]

i was trying to test myself with this map, and i didnt get it to be what i saw in my head, but this map isnt anything to turn your back to. i feel it still came out pretty strong, and offers players of all kinds something to enjoy. please check it out and give me your thoughts and in-depth reviews. DONT FORGET TO RATE ON BUNGIE!! - thanks, John

This map looks very good in the asthetics department. I love the inclined bridge center. This is a download for me.

Not gonna lie, this looks awesome. I'm DEFINITELY gonna have to take a closer look. I'll be back with more thoughts later, but I can tell I like it already! Keep up the good work!

Wow, I wasn't expecting much when I clicked on this, most of the maps that random people post are bad, or at least not good. Average maybe, I dunno.

Anyway, this is better than average, it's awesome! Well, from the pics anyway.
For now I'll rate this at 10/10, I'm downloading it now, but it's passed midnight, so I'll test it out tomorrow. Good job on this map.

5/5 on Bungie. The only thing that I saw from the pics: It looks a little small for a team game, but not overly so. But then I looked at your layout map, and it kind of relaxed me, I guess I'll have to play it to find out how big it is.

thanks man, please make sure to review it after gameplay... even if it costs me a good rating. :) i can take the truth.

wow, his looks spectacluar. The layout of it looks really great there havent been too much symetrical maps lately, but you got this one looking great. A few bumps but im sure that wont effect gameplay. As Ive said before the layout loks really great, and it reminds me of something that Bungie would come up with. And the center of it looks simply stunning, awesome job.

Default review hub material much?

By looking at the screenshots and viewing your map setup, i must say the map looks great. I will download and really check it out. if comes up to par(which is almost inevitable considering the high amount of quality this map looks like it contains) i will recommend it to be reviewed for the review hub. looks like a great FFA map or KOTH. I look forward to seeing what maps you put out in the future.

the truth of the matter is silence, this map sucks....

But if i said that I'd be lying so it doesnt suck, quite the opposite this map is phenomenal I cant put my finger on what it is I like so much which is probably a really good thing shows that every part of this map is equally as good - and I must say I prefer this map 4 times over to all your other maps :) 5/5 I could see this being featured on day.
