Electron -2e


Electron -2e
Created by ScarecrowXavier

Recommended Players: 2-10
Recommended Gametypes: FFA Slayer, Team Slayer, Multi-Flag and King of the Hill

Shipped block by block to Halo 3 using Forge, Electron -2e is the most accurate rendition of a Halo classic. The winner of the recent Forgotten Treasures contest, and an amazing map in it's own right, this Warlock remake not only impresses in nostalgic recreation, it has also transitioned wonderfully to the gameplay of Halo 3. The arena style of combat has been quite lacking from the array of Bungie created content, allowing Electron to slip right into the mix without feeling redundant. The combination of medium and short range weapons allows for varied and balanced choices amongst the four base symmetry of this map. A central, quick respawning camo can be quite deadly when used in conjunction with any of the four teleporters about the map, allowing for fast and silent movement.

Along with a solid structure, this map boasts a wide array of gametypes. From FFA, to Multi-Team to MLG Slayer, Electron plays something for everyone. Comparable in both structure and playstyle, Electron -2e not only remains true to Warlock in nearly every respect, it evolves wonderfully with the new mechanics of Halo 3. If you are looking for some classic and nostalgic Halo action, or just want a solid competitive map to beat your friends on, Electron is a download well spent.

Definetly the greatest remake yet.
Warlock was a great map in halo 2 and this recreates every aspect of that old map
Congrats on the feature, can't wait to see more from you

Nice one Scarecrow. I really enjoyed Warlock, but hated the H2 BR. This map plays really play well in the Halo 3 era, and is great fun for FFA and Team Slayer matches.

A well deserved feature, Xavier. Great job.

Output v2 - Courtyard - Found-ry Final - Porq v2

Does anyone else remember warlock being dark? Everything else is perfect, but I think if it was darker it would be better.

Oh man, I loved warlock. I hope the gameplay is true to how warlock used to play, I will have to find out for myself I guess. I remember one time in Halo 2, I bridged myself host and the other team was trying to mod, so I turned on the team standby and won the game, good times...

But anyways, looks like it is very neat and I just hope that there is no way to get on top of the map.

It is very difficult to capture darkness in a map. FX in maps usually cause more harm than good. FX are usually very unappealing to the eyes. It can also make gameplay worse because of blurring. I think it is more important to have clear gameplay than half-assed lighting. I understand what you are saying though. I would like the most accurate remake. The lighting would make us feel right at home, but it just ca't be done.

This is not only a well-deserved feature, it is also a momentous occasion!

THIS IS FORGEHUB'S 200TH FEATURED MAP!


God, we've come a long way.

First ever featured map
From Last Resort and Valhalla maps to where we are today...

Congratz Scarecrow too. Although I didn't play Halo 2 (which I really should because everyone's remaking now), this map looks quite fun and fair. Not much cover though...


A good sig is on the way! *Opens MS paint*
