MEGALITH map variant. http://www.bungie.net/Stats/Reach/FileDetails.aspx?fid=12781866&player=DEEP+NNN MEGALITH fileset including game films.
MEGALITH (version 0.5) is a well tested map that features a scaled reconstruction using the same 4500 year old Neolithic design of the most recent Stonehenge. This is how it would look, if all of its components had been completed and were still standing today. Of course Forge and its object portfolio were limiting factors in the final product. This map is a two team and FFA compliant map. It easily supports 8 to 16 players in all gametypes except Invasion. MEGALITH has been field tested at least twice a week since October 20, 2010. It's current form is only slightly different than it's original version and has never failed to deliver good game mechanics week after week. Its design is Jetpack friendly (though not dominant) and most map positions can also be accessed via other methods. Don't let the pipes turn you off. LOL
The bases, as well as the rest of the map, are near perfect mirrored symmetry. After you play MEGALITH once, most assets will be easy to find. Stonehenge reconstruction.
All of the major power weapons are aligned along the dividing line between both bases and encourage map movement. Orientation is natural with direction of flow being easy to ascertain. The lower deck of each base sees the least action, as was planned and provides relatively safe background movement and spawning. There is also a teleporter situated there with a receiver on the middle outer wall. Red base.
Blue base.
Elevation is used on the map for a fun experience. Hills and territories include the highest towers with game specific teleporters assisting foot traffic.
Frame-rate disclosure:
