I really admire these types of maps. MLG maps that have a layout that is suitable for both TS and FFA which contains multiple pathways and more than one floor.

There is no doubt that Archaic deserved a feature.
Congrats guys!

I'll be downloading the map and checking it out tonight, I'm not so much into MLG, but I'm sure I'll have some fun on this map.

All of the download links to the map and game type are at the bottom of the post. Or you can find them below this sentence. You're welcome buddy. =p

Download Archaic 1.1

Download MLG King v6
Download MLG Sky Ball

There are only two maps in the entire MLG forum section that I can say that I enjoy playing on and Archaic is one of those two maps. I particularly don't enjoy MLG maps and MLG in general and it means a lot to me, to truly say that I can enjoy an MLG map. I don't know how I can say that but there is something about this map, a certain vibe, that just keeps me entertained when playing a game on here.

I never found anything I didn't like in this map, the gameplay was enjoyable, the aesthetics are clean and look great, the architecture and layout is definitely original and out of the ordinary. I can truly agree with everyone here that Archaic truly deserves a feature. And Congrats to both of you two fine men on creating such a wonderful map that truly deserved a feature.

This is an amazing map, the interlocking is nice, the gameplay is even better. I love how you used MLG weapons layouts. Altogether this map is awesome ***10/10***

One problem I did have was call-outs. But I'm still reviewing some and trying to remember them correctly.

Agreed. And I believe they're currently working on a V2 with colored markers on the map to help callouts.

But this is easily my favorite forged MLG map. I've really gone through and looked at every last piece of geometry, and you've done a great job utilizing your budget (more so in the V2 I've heard about). The layout screams originality, while keeping the layout highly competitive. I only wish that there could have been a standard version to go along with the MLG version, but the strict budget may make that an impossibility. Overall though I love playing on this map and it's one of the very few maps that I can guarantee will stay on many people's hard drives. Congratulations!

glad to see this get featured, i've been a fan for a long time. Hector and G-nuts are both excellent at forge and this map truely shines in that aspect.

congrats on the feature dudes

I actually haven't seen this before. I'm surprised: I usually see the maps before they are featured. Anywho, this looks really cool, and I'm glad to see something Asymmetric featured. Congrats on Premium!

WOW!!!!!!! I can't beleive that I know these guys! I used to be a part of a website that gutnuts was at. Any way, The map was awsome then, and still is now.It was made to be fast paced and intense.

Thats correct but v2 also features a ramp at rockets similar to the one at sniper.

Thanks so much for the feature and all the good comments guys! I was bummed that Lateralus didnt get featured a few months ago but having this featured is a thousand times better.

I've played about 5 or 6 FFA's on this map and it's one of the best out there. I am still looking to play some team games on it.

Ive noticed that the middle isn't used too often beside jumping to the middle for OS. If you are looking for some constructive criticism, that's the only thing I'd point out.

The screenshots don't do this map justice, you really need to play it to get a feel for it. Very, very Halo CE-esque.
