Shadow Moses Island

Shadow Moses Island

I've had a ForgeHub account for awhile, but this is my first posted map.

This is a remake of the heliport level from the classic PSX Metal Gear Solid 1. It includes effective spawn placement, balanced weapons, and landmarks from the original game. The challenge was making the actual map look like the game, and to include enough cover, weapons, and the prevention of camping.

Gametypes supported:
-CTF [multi/single]
-Slayer
-Oddball
-King of The Hill
-VIP
-Juggernaut
-Assault [multi/single]

Weapons: [Quantity-Weapon-Respawn Time]
4x Assault Rifle-30
1x Shotgun-60
1x Sniper Rifle-180
2x SMG-30
2x Spiker-30
1x Magnum-30
1x Plasma Pistol-30
1x Needler-45
2x Plasma Grenade-10
1x Overshield-90

Now for what everyone actually wants to see... PICS!

And help me out here, does MGS4 go back to Shadow Moses? I don't have a PS3 so I haven't played it.

Overall, I searched through pages of symbols for the font style, Georgia, to find the check mark to show how much I like this. It's gorgeous. I approve, and I approve again. I've not even played Metal Gear Solid, but this is enough for me. 5/5, bro. I rarely even give a rating before looking at a map in-game, but this is just beastly.

Wow. I'm a huge Metal Gear fan and this is like the most coolest thing I've seen in a while. You did pretty good on this map, this actually gives me ideas on maps to make using Metal Gear stages.

Once again, well done, I'll need to download this map to see how well it plays though.

Wow! This is a very impressive map that is highly close to the original. I might give it a DL some time. BTW what’s inside the base? Oh, and where's the snow, lol?

I was originally going to make this map on avalanche, but I figured it wouldn't be as easy to find nice level ground like on foundry-
and the base is just a facade (just the front of the building)

[monkeyrantz]
