Lazy cover is when a piece has been placed just for the sake of cover. Cover, in a competitive map, should be structural. Players should be able to interact with your map's geometry. The idea is to empower the player. If you have pieces placed on the ground just for the sake of cover, you end up restricting players. Here's a good article you can read to know more about cover in a competitive map. http://haloevolved.com/threads/next-level-forging-cover.147881/

Irregardless, the map is still extremely open. And flat. Open and flat.

Me? Bump? Sure. Necro bump? I don't think so. " But people just don't download someones map off the internet, then to play said map on their own free time, and then go back to the said website and write a post about someone else's map." I did that a lot. Hey, I'm just saying. I think you'll have a good time playing this map, Slams. Very solid. And, Deb. I have the footage already. Just the commentary now.

I guess you can say he's sparkling.

I have added a link to the map beta if anyone is interested in giving the map a look.

In competitive maps, Gameplay > Aesthetics. That's why they're called competitive maps.

OP has been updated with newer pictures.

Rocket Launchers have been a staple in Halo 4v4 maps since the beginning. They are definitely not overpowered like the Dubstep Cannon. Anyway, the map looks rather nice although I don't understand the 3x3 block at the last picture. Looks so random.

Yes, I chose an English name this time. It is asymmetric, built on the sexy Ravine canvas, and has a lot of good, long sightlines. The map also has a lot of skill jumps to help players traverse areas faster. Bloodstone is inspired by Edifice and Angst. Two of my favorite forge maps in Halo 4. There are a total of 5 atriums. The middle, Blue, Red, Gold, and Cyan. A sniper rifle spawns in the middle on top of a rock. The middle rock is a very important part of the map as it connects a lot of the jumps through the middle atrium and blocks the sightlines quite well at the bottom. The idea behind Bloodstone is to allow players to travel the map faster through jumping which is why this map has so many trick jumps. Some of these jumps are hard to make but can be very beneficial if executed properly. The weapons in the map are the Sniper Rifle and the Sticky Detonator. The sniper is extremely powerful in the map because of the long sightlines. It has 1 spare clip and respawns every 120 seconds. It spawns on top of the middle rock. The sticky detonator, on the other hand, spawns at Gold 2 minutes into the game. I gave it 1 spare clip because it's not as powerful as the sniper in the map but can still be deadly if in the right hands. Spread the meta

Casual maps generally fall under mini games. In the guidelines Duck posted here. You'll see this "The "competitive" label is, in some ways, a misnomer. It does not mean that maps must be hyper-competitive MLG style maps, for instance. The "competitive" label is essentially given to standard style Halo maps." Trench maps aren't standard. Which is why I suggest posting this in the proper forum.

That really depends on how large the flat area is and how long the hallway is. If you're gonna theme a competitive map, make it aesthetically. Don't change the layout to fit the theme.

Two words, guys. Shotgun. Needler.

This is the most random thread I've seen today. It's like a status update. I love it.
