That looks like great fun, it seems to be a very tactical game.

I will DL and see how it actually plays, for now, 5/5!

Great Job, could you possibley make a tutorial on how to make this Jail Mechanism? Its very innovative!

No, that would involve 2 KOTH and 1 CTF game going on at the same time and the hill would have to be able to differentiate between each team to apply the traits. That's out of the scope of Halo, but it'd be a nice addition.

The flag return is at the base because it's a short distance from the base to the middle, so to make it more challenging, the flag return is at the flag spawn.

It is a very tactical game, it's best to travel in pairs so if one of you clash with an opponent, the other guy can finish him off. The only problem is that sometimes your whole team is in jail. I'm thinking about placing a fusion coil that will shoot up by itself without a switch and is on a timer, so you get set jailbreak times every 90 seconds or so. I haven't playtested this many times, and the teams I used were blatantly unbalanced. Try playing with more even teams and see if a whole team is ever in jail at the same time.

Do you want the exact tutorial on how to make this specific device or how to make this type of switch? It won't be able to be a video because I don't own a capture card. The jail mechanism took a while to get right, but then duplicating it one the other side was relatively easy, thanks to Foundry's grid and my good memory.

really awesome im gonna dl it right now and play it with some friends. good map and idea 5/5

Norlinsky · 07-26-2008

I like this idea. Definitely something I wouldn't have thought of. 5/5. Keep thinking of new stuff like this

monkeyrantz · 07-26-2008

wow, very very smart idea, it confused me at first how this would even be possible, but i thought it through until my head hurt, and believe me it freaking hurt, but yes, this is amazing and a well deserved download for you!

cool 5/5 for me

This looks very interesting, I like the switch idea and how you can "release" players from jail. I used to love playing school yard CTF with my friends and im happy someone is reviving this epic game... good job on the switch and unique game play

IcexBullet · 07-26-2008

I had this idea a long time ago but I couldn't make it due to technical problems(jail system, flag scoring at middle, only killing on one side). Thank you for coming out with this and having the ingenious jail system.

Wow nice. it reminds me of younger days. i wish i had played outside more... 9/10 for the map
