"Long lost installations such as these once used to be beacons used by the Forerunners to guide vessels. Even after the fall of the Forerunners, these installations continue to function..."
Description : Beacon is a symmetrical 4v4 map made on Forge Island. It has two bases for Red Team and Blue Team, as well as two side bases (colored yellow and green). Red base is coupled with Yellow base, and Blue coupled with Green, in the sense that there is ramp leading from Red to Top Yellow and no ramp from Blue to top yellow. The same goes for Blue and Green.
Apart from this, Mid is colored purple and has three levels. The Overshield spawns on Top-Mid (Purple 3 or L3). The Sniper Rifle spawns on Bottom Yellow, and the Railgun spawns on the Bottom Green. There is also Blue Bridge, Red Bridge, Yellow Bridge, and Green Bridge structures which connect their respective bases to other bases.
Furthermore, there are also multiple Tactical Jumps detailed in the Showcase video below.
