Hi, most of you know my Garden CE map. After its release, I liked how I went with the projects theme of sci-fi, and started building another map. This map was Aquarii. I finished the BSP, including portals, glass, and all that stuff. The only thing I never finished was texturing, due to me losing the max file to corruption (No, I didn't back it up). Anyway, I'm just going to release it and upload it to halomaps. I've finished up some things with it today that were towards gameplay issues, and music. (This is my last map with music probably)..

Anyway.

Map name: Aquarii_CE
Date released: 1/10/10
Description: A luxury sci-fi aquarium. -incomplete-
Author: Higuy
Notes:
Thanks to DEEHunter for helping me out with the chairs and sofa's, Advancebo for making the mutli, killa_ftw for the fish, and Jesper Kyd for the song "Quantum Velocity"
The map is incomplete, and I'm never going to finish it. You can extract the map in HEK+ and work on it, and extract the bsp as well if you like.
The music can be turned off in your settings -> audio -> music volume.
I don't care if you don't like the music, so don't bother telling me about it.

other notes:
The "finished project" was supposed to be what it was now, was the same lighting theme as Garden, but a much more colorful texture style similar to Mirrors Edge. In the end there I was also adding 2 back rooms to the bases that were basically lounge areas, and also had ledges and windows to show you were in a very tall skyscraper. There was also supposed to be lots of scaffolding and bricks (you'll notice some concrete bricks in red base..) to show it was under construction in some places. Yes, that doesn't make sense at all, becuase the fish are still there.

I was actually trying to give the map a more of Rat Race and putput type gameplay. There's alot of ways to counter camping players, however there's always that "top area" where someone can be.

I was going to just make it a tiling bitmap of yoko, but we all know that wouldn't of gone well :downs:

Meh, I was pointing the somewhat non-original feel it had, but okay.

I agree, but this map has a less original theme to it, but it's not finish so I won't judge yet.
