Tuesday Night Tests (3/15/11)

Welcome to the latest installment of Tuesday Night Tests! Here we get to test unfinished work by the community so that one day it can be finished and released to the masses with a positive reception. If you have a map that needs to be tested and you need guinea pigs beta testers, this is the event for you. If you just like to play customs, this event is for you! If you want to procrastinate on your homework and play Halo, this event is also for you (although we suggest getting the homework thing done first).

How do I get my map tested?

Here's what you need to do:



Post your map in your fileshare along with the gametypes you want to test (Limit 2 gametypes per map)
Please state how many players the map plays best in (4v4, 6v6, 8v8 etc)
Please don't submit a map that has been posted elsewhere on the site. We want raw, unreleased work still in the testing (or beta) stage.

In the event that you're unable to participate in the testing sessions, but still want feedback, please start a thread HERE (http://www.xforgery.com/forum/forumdisplay.php?f=120) along with a link to that thread in your submission post.


I want to test maps!

If you don't have any maps to test, no problem! We would love to have you around and help others perfect their work.

This event will begin @ 7:30 PM EST (4:30 PM PST) and will last around 2-4 hours depending on submissions.

Below are the hosts and what time they will begin testing. If the need arises, the party may split to accommodate additional players or maps that have a certain player requirement.

Hosts (message these people on XBL or XF if you want to join):

I've got a bigteam map I'd like to get a test on. I'll post the link later tomorrow, as I have the day off and plan on doing some changes on it first...

*EDIT - The map link http://www.bungie.net/Stats/Reach/FileDetails.aspx?fid=15155381

[Letol]

I'd love if I could get the film of a race on this map:

Letol's Mediocre Outdoor Adventure (http://www.bungie.net/Stats/Reach/FileDetails.aspx?fid=14933000&player=Letol)

Oh, and be sure to use warthogs. Mongeese and ghosts work too, but warthogs work the best in my opinion.

@ 7:30 PM EST (4:30 PM EST)

Might want to fix that. ;)

(Both say EST)

I'll most likely have the same thing happen as last week, where I join and have completely forgot it was TNT day/time.

My GT is Scrappy T421 but i might not make it. My map is Tea Garden http://www.bungie.net/Stats/Reach/FileDetails.aspx?fid=9739291&player=scrappy%20T421. It is best for a 4v4 or 5v5. It is suited for Slayer, Team Slayer, Stockpile and KOTH. I would love feedback cuz i haven't had any in a while for this map.

[iTzBroken]

Solution - I have my bros.

Ill download the latest version of Java and Maybe Play with you guys...Depends.

I have to work, but I would love for you guys to play as many games as possible on this map. I have it set up for FFA and team slayer as well as flag games. I'm looking mostly for feedback on 1 or neutral flag and team slayer. Please, if you only play two games on it play a flag game and a slayer game as the map has some differences between the two gametypes.
I've only played a couple games on this map so I want as much feedback as possible. Even if you're not in this party tomorrow but it looks like something you wanna try out go for it and leave me feedback!

I made some pretty big changes to the lower base section to even the playing field. I also added support for assault and neutral bomb gamemodes. There are now two more ninja routes from the low base to the mid buildings.

I will be available to player near the end of this week's time block, but if i miss the play session please save a video! Thanks.

Suggested gametypes: Slayer, CTF, Assault, Territories

This is a small map, that only supports Bro Slayer for now, I would like to know how many players can fit in it and how does it play. And of course that is anything broken.

Surge (8 players) - 7:55 PM (Invasion Skrimish, Team Slayer)
Galerie (8 players) - 8:15 PM (Bro Slayer)
Memorandum (10 players) - 8:35 PM (Team Slayer, CTF)
Ferocious Kitty v3 (Open Party) - 9:00 PM (BTB Slayer, CTF)
Letol's Medicore Outdoor Adventure (Open Party) - 9:25 PM (Warthog Race)

Yeah it is. We just ended TNT.

Although the party is still up since it's now an open party. You're still free to join.

[SnazzyWeasel]

Hey guys, sorry I couldn't get in till after Devil's Fort was tested. Please let me know if anyone who was in the game could save off a new gameplay vid for me, and any feedback you may have on the map. Thanks!

[cyclonewolf114]
