Sandbox Desertion

Desertion

Desertion is a remake of the Halo CE multiplayer map, "Derelict." This is version 1.0 of the map. There are some simple issues. Some significant bumps and gaps. And the map is easily escapable by grenade jumping. Nonetheless, I feel the map is ready for release. I'll do an edit later on when I feel like it. Also, the map doesn't contain as many of the original details as I hoped it would. Closing the map off took far more objects than I anticipated. I hope you like the map, regardless of its current flaws, and that you look forward to seeing its future unravel.

you should put a light in there somewhere, its hard to orientate when everything has the same color and looks the same

Jeah exactly, just add 2 light orbs on that map.
I think it's important for gameplay / orientating.

But the map itself looks good mate =)
Well done (though escapability)

When i look at the map it reminds me when I started to forge my "Foundation" remake.
I built it in the crypt too but it didn't really workend out well.
It was escapable too.
You should definately work on the escaping part =)
It fells good if you know you have the map and there are no gameplay flaws like escapable walls and so on =)

If you need help maybe, just add me

If a map is escapable, then it obviously isn't ready for release. I know many people that will exploit a glitch they find in a map.

Although the map itself is good, there was another derelict remake released not too long ago with alot better quality that I couldn't escape.

Keep up the good work, your effort is noted and you have good techniques, just a couple weeks too late to release. =\

Adyless made made a Derelict remake and I think his is alittle better even though this one is pretty good. The reason I like his over this one is his is the correct color of bue and his walls are higher making it less likely to be broken and the upper floors rooms are a bit to large compared to the original.. This is a good map but its already been done and his was even updated to work with Halo 3's gameplay.

Could use some color. its kinda boring when you are playing and everything is normal colored... but otherwise, great map! i like the weapons and euiptment put on the map. Definate Download!

Wow good remake its very looking resembling !

I just saw Adyless' Derelict remake, and have decided that releasing this now was a mistake. It clearly wasn't ready. I got way ahead of myself. I'll re-release this map when it's truly ready. Thanks for the feedback.

EDIT: ok, wait a minute. I just checked out Adyless' remake. It looks great, but IT'S BUDGET GLITCHED. mine is not. I'll do some work later to try to bring mine up to the same level, WITHOUT CHEATING.
