Qbert v3, SLC

[CaptainPoopface]

My first public release after a long hiatus. If you do not remember Qbert, it is an ancient arcade classic.


This map recreates the layout - a stack of cubes in the shape of a half pyramid. It's a very small map, intended for fast-paced action.





You are armed with only a Nerf Blast-a-matic.




Notes:
- Halo 2 is not designed for such small maps. It tries to intelligently spawn you far from your enemies, which can make the respawns predictable. So try not to be cheap with the spawn kills.
- All wma sounds (the announcer's voice) got corrupted somehow. Oh well.
- System link is fixed.
- No game types fixed. Slayer only.

Credits:
- Neodos for the glass box shader, research, SLC fixing and testing, general assistance, inspiration
- Rockymods for the excellent model of the Nerf Blast-a-matic, and for always being willing to help
- Xzodia for plugin research and distribution
- Entity 1.39 and up
- Yelo
- Remnant users for keeping the spirit alive
The Patch for containment.map

I am interested in user feedback, but I consider this mod essentially done, so it would just be fine tuning from here.

Great job this should be really fun to play with 4 players or even more mbmb? XD

Absolute lunacy, just my kind of thing, let me know your chosen xbox client xlk or xbc and your server name and I'll keep an eye out for you (I remember you saying you play mods quite regularly with a tight group)

Edit: SLC now fixed and tested.

I have four more mini-maps like this that are pretty much finished. When I've fixed and released them all, I'll make a mainmenu patch for them.

If anyone feels like making a mainmenu image, that would be peaches.

Edit 2: Thank you Mr. Sandwich

I agree you should model some boulders Mb scale, and skin the soccer ball, and have em drop on you map knocking player off at random.

[bumlove]

looking at it you'd think "boulders yeah" after playing some 1v1v1 you realize a boulder kill steals your chance of getting that sweet nurf ball headshot that takes the bad guy out in one, or in Cpts case a killtacular with only 2 opponents on the map (I suspect autoaiming nurf balls, I've seen the noobs on XBL using these kind of sneaky tricks) If anything I'd add about 5-10% more height to jumping and maybe abit more to run speed too for more horizontal movement

WOW, very cool. Finish the pyramid and put 4 flags and I MIGHT e-kiss you. XP
