NOTE: The full thread, complete with more pictures and information about each map can be found here. ![]() These maps are all community driven. They were in no way shaped, designed or forged by MLG. Welcome to the 2nd Halo 3 Forge Forum MLG Map Pack from mlgpro.com! This has been a massive 5-month effort from the MLG Forge community and has resulted in 18, lovingly crafted maps for your enjoyment. And with Version 8 testing just around the corner, a few of these maps are more than likely to be re-appearing sometime soon. So scroll down, download the maps and enjoy! -------------------------------- How this map pack has worked: After the first map pack, we reflected on the process behind it. Some ideas that were brought up were: -Allowing everyone to enter -Allowing 1v1, 2v2 and FFA maps -Ways of improving the quality of the map pack In the end, we settled on having a judging panel to score everybody’s maps and to choose the best maps for each category, with the best of the 4v4 maps being in the top slots of the fileshare. Although the process has had a fair few bumps along the way, we are 100% satisfied about the maps that have been chosen in the end. The map pack serves as the main release for all of the maps in it. Over time, individual map threads will be posted on the forums. If you want to leave detailed feedback, find the maps respective thread. Alternatively, you can contact the author of each map to leave feedback. -------------------------------- To run games on the map pack maps: -------------------------------- Map Pack Poll Really love a certain map in the map pack?

Altitude is another Baron map . and like always, it never fails to impress. Set up in the sky bubble, the map takes strong points of design from Narrows and Pit and combines it with many original elements of its own. If you liked Pit King, you will love Altitude. Inspired by the structure from the level "Halo" in the H3 campaign, as well as Construct, Compound puts together the best features to create a unique sky bubble map. Featuring two main lifts and plenty of tactical jumps, Compound carefully balances top control with bottom floor . something that most maps with lots of vertical movement struggle to do. Slayer is the best supported game type. Pharoah is a re-design of the well-acclaimed, yet little known Foundry map Phoenix. The transition to the Crypt has done a world of good to the map, with the extra space allowing for less cluttered gameplay and more structures. Pharoah is a map where it takes true teamwork to win, whether it be when bringing in a flag or making a push. The end result? Great gameplay. ![]() Download Here PHOBIA Forged by Ninjashizoku (Prof Impossible) Supports Slayer, King of the Hill, 5 Flag Phobia is a wonderfully crafted, room-based symmetrical map that takes place in the crypt. It takes influence from the inside rooms of Rat’s Nest . if you look carefully. But don’t let that put you off . it plays amazingly for all of it’s gametypes. Forged by Solo XIII, a renound Google Sketchup designer, Pipeline is a small, room-based asymmetrical map in the crypt of Sandbox. The map has been in production for a very long time . and the end result is something that has had hours and hours of work put into it. Plays Slayer and King very well, but also is one of the few maps that can support Oddball. Definitely worth the download. Quarantine is a map that manages to combine lovely aesthetics of a ruined, weary map with great gameplay . which a lot of forgers struggle and fail to achieve. From the creator of Lockdown and Deadbolt, this room-based asymmetrical map definitely keeps up the quality that Nexn is known for. Plays Slayer and Hill Suspect, forged by b0b43 (me) is a asymmetrical, but functionally symmetrical map built right up in the top of the sky bubble. In what started off as a Prisoner-inspired map turned out to be something quite different and unique in its own right. Featuring plenty of vertical action, this map plays well for both Slayer and Hill. Vanguard, sharing the name with the Foundry map it was based off, is one of the few inverse symmetrical maps in the map pack. Like Pharoah, Vanguard really benefits from the transition to the Crypt . with the extra room allowing for more space in the bases and the courtyards. Plays Slayer and CTF. 4v4 Maps Originally designed for the Sky Bubble, Cavern is a Crypt-based asymmetrical map, that is more or less functionally symmetrical. An interesting point to note is that the map was designed for King of the Hill . but no ordinary King map, a map with 8 hills. Naturally, the map plays Hill really well but also plays some great Slayer games Leviathan, the second map forged by Pulsekiller, takes elements of Pit and Collosus and applies several new fresh elements to create a very solid symmetrical map. People who liked Pit King will like the gameplay supported by Leviathan Hill, but Flag and Slayer are definitely not slouchers on this map either. Seen in the recent Top 10 Videos of the Week, Oasis is a heavily-inspired Sanctuary map. The good news is that the map still plays well in Halo 3. The bad news? There is none. The map is a solid performer all round and plays Slayer, CTF and Neutral Bomb exceptionally. Hennessy, the sole Foundry map of the map pack, brings new life to the standard Foundry 2-base MLG map. Forged by Soloist and Monster, the map draws upon what the 2-base style does well but makes creative use of Foundry’s resources to create something new and refreshing. Plays Slayer and CTF. Forged by Phuria, Ruination is a symmetrical map set in the Crypt. With the Rockets up top and the OS down low, the map is poised for some great fast-paced gameplay. Supports Slayer and King. The only 4-base of the bunch, Incessant, is a map forged by Bunniesz in the Crypt. With influences ranging from Warlock to even a little bit of Ignite as some astute observers point it, the map is a fast-paced energetic affair. Supports all MLG Gametypes 1v1/2v2 Maps Pyrite, set up at the top of the Crypt, beautifully mixes amazing aesthetics with fast-paced gameplay to create a map easily worth the download. With a slight purple overtone, the map supports both 1v1 and 2v2 gameplay. Co-forged by Tak and iFireCracka, and supports 1v1 and 2v2 Slayer. Dream On, which was designed by Solo and co-forged by Jeef and AceofSpades, is truly a unique map. With beautiful rolling curves and pistons lining the sides, the map is set for great team-oriented gameplay. The style of play supported is like no other map seen before, with many set-ups and routes available for teams of two to take. As the name ‘Triad’ might suggest, the map features three lines of symmetry. Yes, three lines of symmetry. That means three bases, all identical. But what does this mean for gameplay? A teamwork-essential map which involves a lot of flanking, co-ordination, teamshotting and being able to get good angles on opponents. Supports GB Forge 2v2. Designed by Sequel and forged by Purplehazen, Utgard is an asymmetrical sky bubble map that brings out the best in teams. Featuring two snipers, an OS and a Camo, Utgard is a quick paced map that you don’t want to miss out on.
