At long last.

For Those Who Don't Know...

I present my most ambitious forge project. I took up on Ace's offer and made not one, but 2 Kineticas, added some Epitaph, Construct, and Narrows love into it, and combined them into one BTB Sky Map in Reach. The original Kinetica was a vertically-challenging, asymmetrical, one-sided map. While Psychokinesis is vertically-challenging, it is the opposite in all other aspects, being a symmetrical, two-sided quarrel. The map layout had to be duplicated and deformed to meet this standard.

If you’re new to the boat, welcome aboard. This is Psychokinesis.

A Little Backstory

Psychokinesis first came to mind when I had been planning Kinetica, the precursor to the map, in Halo 3. I had imagined 2 Kineticas connected in the center. This was completely impossible in Halo 3 due to Budget and Object constraints. So the asymmetrical design was chosen. When the preview was posted, AceOfSpades had thought if was unfortunate I couldn't have 2 Kineticas and have stuff in between. But, with Forge world, new ideas flourished, and I plan to use it to my advantage.

Designing my Baby

Rather than stuck with the old design, I gave the symmetrical design a go. This map was probably the most challenging map to finish designing, as I had to comply with the limits of the new forge. All the limits of every category (excluding rocks) have been met, so it just barely squeezed its way into Forge World. The designing took about 4-5 days was a struggle. I had lucky surges of ideas and ingenious to get around the limits by manipulating certain objects and fiddling with rotations.

Building the Beast

This map has gone through a whopping 112 versions. Yes, 112. With that number, a lot of time and effort have been used in the process. I started the map back in late September and finished the final version today.
The map itself has had some design changes to comply with the limits. A small section of walkway has been removed, as well as the drop. The Bottom Lift has been redone and Bottom Middle has been completely overhauled. The center has had a big design change, mainly dealing with long LOS.

The first thing you'll see when you load this bad boy up.

Long, right? Wrong. That's what she said.

No, but really, it's pretty long.

Givin' some 12-gauge death to the face.

Do I smell a double kill? (If you can then you probably need to stop playing for a bit.)

Did I mention that rockets are good?

Watch as the ninja stalks his prey.

BOOM! Headshot! (It actually wasn't a headshot.)
