MLG Obsolete

Obsolete is a symmetrical 2 base/2 tower map, greatly inspired by Onslaught and Amplified. Onslaught and Amplified were some of the defining maps of MLG in Halo 3, so I tried to emulate the MLG feel into Halo: Reach. The map features weapons placed around the perimeter of the map, as well as armor abilities placed around the interior. The weapons, armor abilities, and spawn times are as follows:

DMR x 4 @ 10s
Needle Rifle x 4 @ 60s
Magnum x 2 @ 60s
Frag Grenade x 4 @ 30s
Plasma Grenade x 4 @ 30s
Sniper x 1 @ 118s*
Armor Lock x 1 @ 1s**
Jet Pack x 2 @ 1s**
Health Pack x 2 @ 30s

For those who don't know, these are the explanations for spawn timing for certain weapons/armor abilities.

*Drop Spawn – The Rockets, Sniper, and Grenade Launcher are on drop spawns, allowing them to spawn on a constant timer. Due to the initial loadout screen, the timer begins 10 seconds before the game starts. Since it takes 2 seconds for a weapon to become “disturbed” from falling, the respawn timer has been adjusted to reflect that. If you pick the weapon up from mid-air, it could shorten the next respawn by 1-2 seconds. This means weapons can no longer be “dirtied” like Halo 3. The Sniper and Grenade Launcher are set to respawn every 118 seconds and the Rockets are set to respawn every 178 seconds.

Simple version – In a 15 minute game, Rockets will respawn at 12:10, 9:10, 6:10, 3:10, :010. Sniper and Grenade Launcher will respawn at 13:10, 11:10, 9:10, 7:10, 5:10, 3:10, 1:10.

Default Spawn – Other weapons such as the Plasma Pistol and Needle Rifle are on the default spawn system. Their respawn timer begins after the weapon has been picked up. If you picked up a Plasma Pistol that has a 90 second respawn at 13:45 game time, it will then respawn again at 12:15.

**Armor Abilities – The Armor Ability timer kicks in after the body of the person using it disappears. Since it takes 33 seconds for a body to disappear off the map, the Armor Abilities will respawn 34 seconds after you kill the player wielding it.

Now, onto the map itself. The callouts are listed with the pictures.

Overview of Middle NOTE: L2 and R2 work like the callouts from MLG Narrows. They depend on what side your team spawns on. Ex. R1 would be your right corner, and R2 would be their right corner.
