Halo MCC Mod Showcase EP2: Multiplayer Maps

ah salutations and welcome to the next installment of Halo mod showcase a series where I bring the spotlight to the Halo modding projects that I think deserve publicity this episode will be our first look at multiplayer maps the footage you see here was taken during a game night I hosted in my Discord server if you want in on the action please join us I'll be hosting a lot more of these with another multiplayer game night happening this Sunday the 22nd at 1 pm Eastern Standard Time let's get started our first project is Ariel by fubei these are a series of maps that use a gameplay style that's heavily inspired by classic 90s era Arena Shooters with Aerials Maps coming from quake in particular the maps included are Arrow walk blood Covenant and Longest Yard along with doubled versions that act as extended variants of the map for larger player counts the weapons and power-ups featured in the mud harken back to the ones featured in popular Boomer Shooters the gravity rifle for example is a direct reference to Unreal tournament's shock rifle it has two modes of fire with its primary shooting a sniper bolt while its charge up fire shoots a purple ball of plasma it can then be shot by the primary fire to trigger an explosive combo to devastating effect another example is the double-barreled shotgun which behaves a lot like Doom's super shotgun it has an alt-fire where it can shoot both of its shells at a quick succession players have shields but they don't recharge forcing you to scour the map to find Shield pickups they come in small medium and the mega Shield skill jumps through the mods mechanics are a big deal with shotgun jumping and even melee jumping being features as a way to enhance your movement seriously a top-notch group of maps with a unique flare of gameplay that you won't find anywhere else on MCC next up we have fry cook Wars by Roxanne it's a small but fun SpongeBob themed level that pits the Krusty Krab against the Chum Bucket it even has its own special announcer that uses an AI generated Plankton voice we've taken crabs flag crabs flag is ours you've finally done something useful very fun map and I love the visuals seeing ghosts drive around in these small crevices is pretty funny to watch metrobite by altus94 it's a small Urban map best suited for multi-objective game modes that Capture the Flag great layout and love the Gmod aesthetic that the map seems to be going for there's even an Easter egg in somewhere but I ain't telling you where it is the last CE map we played was the best worst map of all time desert hog by Inferno Plus the gimmick to this map is that it will take well over a half an hour to get from one base to the other and when you die you have to start all over again it features a wide variety of perfectly balanced warthog variants including big Hogs Giga Hogs wide Hogs and even hog Gods just to name a few play on this map for nearly two hours for as much as we did and your mental sanity will continuously melts [Music] [Laughter] um oh my gosh [Applause] [Laughter] thank you [Laughter] [Laughter] [Laughter] [Music] thank you moving on to Halo 2 the first map I want to cover is Plaza by dead Sergeant it's a small symmetrical map with the old Mombasa aesthetic I enjoy the many skill jumps that's possible on the map and any map that includes the campaign turrets will always hold a special place in my heart that being said I do find some aspects of the map a bit too symmetrical for my tastes such as the exact same placement for these ODST drop pods but regardless it plays really well and it's great for capture the flag there's another Easter egg on this map but again I'm no Easter egg narc so you're gonna have to find that yourself next up is Chiron station by Delta 905. this is a Halo 2 remake of the legendary Chiron tl-34 map from Halo 1. this uses the Cairo station aesthetic with some elongation thrown into the mix and let me tell you these map visuals go hard I'm in love with the way this map looks you can see the enamber cloud in the background a room with an ODST drop pod loaded up and even a covenant bomb is loaded in a tram fiesta game modes are an absolute blast on here and are definitely the recommended way to play this map that and shotguns awesome level we now transition to Halo 3 maps starting with resuscitation by aerial Dave it's a one for one remake of Halo 2's coagulation it looks really nice in Halo 3's engine and plays well with Halo 3 sandbox it even has interesting weapon placements such as missile pods where the Banshees spawn to give each team an edge against the opposing Vehicles without needing a Spartan laser don't let's shoot sniper man get that thing what was he cooking who's sniping thing Bob cook what was he cooking go let's come on cliffside oh similarly we have nexilis Sanctuary remake from Halo 3. like resuscitation it's a one for one remake of the original Sanctuary there's a lot more going on with the art direction for this map that I absolutely love the outer rim of the map has details such as this destroyed pillar that eventually starts causing water damage to the wall a pelican crashed here along with some accompanying flares and ropes probably my favorite detail involves this stream of water by Blue Bass stream flows down from the main building eventually making its way to the center of the map into the pool by rocket spawn and yes you could still jump to rank 3. a more zany map is green Knight's first Wipeout map it's an obstacle course map reaching a ton of traps that sure to drive you insane players even have the ability to push people off the course with their hands together don't push me this time watch me I am very angry if Adam is a fell off next up is rejected shotgun's overpass map it's a port of Halo 2's first Metropolis bsp as a multiplayer map with the addition of usable fun Vehicles such as the Pelican Phantom and Halo 2 Shadow inspector it's a bit difficult to get from one side of the map to the other due to no real flanking routes and whoever controls the Spartan laser effectively gives our team total vehicle control but still a fun map and you're not going to care about balancing when you're massacring your enemies with these fun vehicles our last project for today is Inferno Plus's Halo Craft series of maps this brings the Minecraft Universe to Halo with maps such as blockout Spleef Arena mansion and Village these maps are almost entirely destructible with the exception of Bedrock that allows for there to actually be a map to stand on you could just flatten these maps to a pancake or close to nothing at all I can only imagine how difficult it must have been to set these Maps up considering all of these blocks seem to be individual crates with destruction States there's even a chest that offers a random weapon from time to time which is really neat Spleef arena is particularly unique as it's a map that gets harder to play on As the glass tiles get destroyed throughout the match love these Maps highly recommend them that's going to be it for this installment of Halo mod showcase our next episode will cover even more
