ff_landslide Public Beta


---Edit---
I slightly updated the map, I noticed the grunts with fuel rods weren't spawning, so I fixed that and made a minor change to the respawn script.

I've spent a total of about 12 days working on this, and am releasing a beta, if only for the map to be verbally destroyed so I can rebuild it from the ground up bigger and better.

What:
What is ff_landslide? It's a firefight map taking place on the landslide area of the level Halo for CE and Xbox.
You start with 7, 5, or 3 lives (shared between plays in coop) on Easy/Normal, Heroic and Legendary difficulty respectively. Lives are displayed in the bottom right corner, and once you lose your last life, you lose.

How:
You fight through 5 rounds, compromised of 7 waves each. Each wave is compromised of 10-30 enemies (approximately), and the makeup of the waves is roughly the same between round (Round 1 Wave 2 has almost the same enemies as Round 2 Wave 2). Enemies are dropped by 2 Spirits, and come from the pathways opposite the spawn area. Waves progress when about 80% of enemies from previous wave are killed, rounds progress when all enemies in previous round are killed. Each Round after the 1st has special attributes:
Round 1 - Normal
Round 2 - Enemies throw more grenades, and always drop grenades upon death
Round 3 - Enemies have more health and sheild (between 1.5 and 2 times)
Round 4 - Player has no motion tracker, and invisible enemies are much more common
Round 5 - Combination of the other attributes


You spawn with an AR and a Pistol, both with full ammo, as well as 4 Frag grenades and 2 Plasmas. When you respawn you have an AR and Pistol with 1/2 ammo, and 1 of each grenade type. If you die holding a weapon, it will disappear After each round there is a 10 second period before the next starts, this is when weapons, ammo, and healthpacks are restocked and you have a chance to set up a new defensive position. Weapons for each round are as follows:
Round 1,2,3 - AR (120 total rounds), Rocket Launcher (1 round), 2 Healthpacks, 4 Frag grenades, Rocket Ammo, 2 Pistol Ammos, 1 AR Ammos
Round 4 - Above + Shotgun (72 total rounds)
Round 5 - Above + Sniper (24 total rounds)

Map is not protected, feel free to use anything from it as long as it stays unprotected

Keep in mind, this is a beta, pretty much everything is subject to change, I'm really just looking for feedback about what could be improved/removed/added.

Use map_name ff_landslide to load the map in CE

I dl'd it on my old pc, I'll try playing it on my newer one later. Could you try to upload to a different sights? It just pops up, closes itself, then directs me to site with malware warnings, and did this 2 times at first before working.

I put the direct link to megaupload, anywhere else I should upload it?

It's not on a http server :/

[paladin]

Im pretty sure you can still hyper link

[jcap]

It seems that you're hosting the images from your own home internet connection, which isn't enough to handle a decent load. You should probably try using an online imagehost like PhotoBucket.

Fixed pix, post some feedback/criticism.

i just played through it and my jaw dropped, the gameplay is amazing and the lives system is awesome. i only suggest adding some custom weapons or bipeds, to spice it up a little. and i was wondering, how did you get the life system in single player because i am making a firefight too and i thought it would be awesome to have multiple lives

Nice spot on where you decided to do the mod on.
