Subdivisions BETA

SUBDIVISIONS: GOLD EDITION

IMPORTANT NOTICE:

Subdivisions: Gold Edition has been closed indefinitely due to a strange sandstorm that destroyed the rest of this town...

MAP DESCRIPTION:

"After the Covenant invasion, many survivors were forced to take refuge in the slums of New Mombasa. 2 - 8 Players."

Subdivisions, or Hemispheres as it was originally known as is an Urban themed Asymmetrical map designed and forged by me. The map it self is rather unique in the sense that the layout is asymmetrical whilst the weapon placement is actually somewhat symmetrical.

The layout consists of the defender's spawn which is near the back hallway, the courtyard, two "sub-bases", and several alleyways and corridors in between. The shotgun can be found in a small building in the center of it all.

WEAPON PLACEMENT:

There are several weapons on the map, most of which are human weapons, ranging from SMGs to Snipers. The weapons are as followed:

- 8 Battle Rifles (45 sec. respawn)
- 2 SMGs (45 sec. respawn)
- 2 Snipers (120 sec. respawn)
- 1 Shotgun (90 sec. respawn)
- 2 spikers (30 sec. respawn)
- 2 carbines (30 sec. respawn)
- 2 needlers (60 sec. respawn)
- 1 bubble shield (90 sec. respawn)
- 4 plasma grenades (10 sec. respawn)
- 4 frag grenades (10 sec. respawn)

SCREENSHOTS:

The part most people probably have already scrolled down to...

The Warehouse Plaza, also shown is the defender's spawn. A sniper Rifle spawns in the back of the truck.

The Central Plaza, this branches off in several directions, and is usually where the fighting occurs.

The Billboard Plaza, this is near the Attacker's Spawn, there is also a sniper rifle here.

One of the "Sub-Bases" there a two Battle Rifles here.

The other Sub-Base, there are also two Battle Rifles here. The platform is slanted like that on purpose.

The Defenders' actual spawn, there is a carbine and mauler here.

The Attackers' spawn, there is a carbine and mauler here too.

1st street, the bubble shield spawns at tunnel, there is also the entrance to the shotgun building.

2nd Street, the dumpster can provide excellent cover here

The alley connecting 1st and 2nd Street, also known as Dumpster Alley. There is an entrance to the Shotgun building here as well.

The long alleyway that connects the Billboard Plaza to 1st Street, watch for grenades...

The sniper is quite useful up close, but there are plenty of longshots as well.

Purple team ambushes a red player on 1st Street, no civilians were killed during the firefight.

The shotgun is useful here too!

Barrels and Dumpsters are great for cover in this city block!

BOOM!!!!! HEADSHOT!!! yes, it was a no scope...

The bubble shield is extremely useful here as well!

Fun Facts:

- The map's title Subdivisions, is a song by the band Rush. The map's working title was Hemispheres, an album by Rush that went Platinum.

- The original title for the map was going to be Cygnus X-1(pronounced: sig-nus-x-one) and the theme was going to be space-like. However, after the map developed more and looked more city-like, I decided it should have been renamed to suit the theme.

- 95% of the Immovable Objects on the map are either interlocked or geomerged.

- A Subdivision is divided land in a suburban or urban setting that is easier to sell or develop. Which is another reason I chose the name.

- The map is inspired by Gridlocked and Reflex, which are possibly the two best "Urban" maps to date.
