2 Player Co op Mission - The Blue Orchid

THE BLUE ORCHID - A 2 Player Co op Mission

Special thanks to Juggacly who helped make and test this map.

BACKSTORY: You and your comrade have been captured by the Covenant and taken to a secret research facility designed to study human behavior. What the covenant fail to realize however is that you are not an ordinary human, you are of course a Spartan. You and your friend will use your enhanced abilities to make your way to the Blue Orchid monitoring station where you must gain entry to shut down the Covenant's vile operations.

This is my second 2 Player Co op Map. The premise is similar to my last map The Temple of Doom. Basically you must help your friend to the end of the map as you will find you cannot complete the challenge on your own, therefore there is a heavy emphasis on teamwork. Unlike the Temple of Doom however, I have made the gametype a variation of King of the Hill. To complete the map only one player is required to be inside the hill and this will trigger the game to end. Very few puzzles have been recycled from The Temple of Doom so don't expect just another rehash of my last. This map came together better than I could have imagined and plays as good if not better than The Temple of Doom.

All solutions to complete this puzzle are logical and there is no glitching required. So don't be concerned about looking for hidden objects in walls or using the fixed weapon glitch, etc. You must be able to double jump to complete this map - to do this simply stand on your team mates head, jump, team mate jumps, then you jump again to greatly increase your jump height. You will not be able to complete this map as an Elite so make sure you're player type is set to Spartan otherwise you will not get past the initial spawn section. I have included 2 checkpoints along the way so make sure you shoot the fusion coils when you see them as these are your checkpoints. I think you will be impressed by the checkpoint system as once the checkpoints are unlocked they are not at all random and work perfectly every time. And yes, if you were wondering, this map is as fun as it is pretty. Good luck and enjoy. If you have any questions on beating the map feel free to ask :)
