13,000 years after the creation of this ancient Campgrounds, only fragments remain.

A MickRaider Map.

Campgrounds is the brainchild of MickRaider. Originally designed as a map in Quake 2 by id Software, Campgrounds was brought up through many games, like Quake 3 and now even Halo. Mick designed the map closely around the original design of Campgrounds, but the final plan for the map was to design it as best he could for Halo game types. Mick's forging class, dubbed "The Remakers" first attempted the map back in late 2009, but quickly abandoned it due to to a game with sissy soldiers using Heart beat senors.

Thus, campgrounds sat unloved for a few months until Mick heard of the Foreign Treasures contest. He found the file containing his unloved map, recruited myself, and we were off to the races. We originally forged another version of this map, which was much to small for our tastes, and thus scrapped it. With about a week gone in our pursuit of the beanbag chair, we started the map from scratch. Three weeks later (And a lot of Dr. Pepper), Campgrounds is a here, and what we would like to call a success.

Now before you run off, I would like to tell you all about Mick's baby (I feel like such a creepy guy saying this). Campgrounds can play every competitive game type* (I don't see what reason you could possibly have playing Infection on this beaut), and it excels at King of the Hill and Slayer. Grab the Sniper or Overshield if at Red, and Grab the Needler and Active Camo at Blue, trust me. In either of these game types, most people testing have found their way not to the rockets, but to the Curved hallway or centre pit. Use those fancy new weapons, bro!

Now after that first rush, someone will have found those pesky rockets. Don't worry, they're not as powerful as one might expect. Simply grab a longer range gun, and the Rockets won't have a chance. But wait, whats this? You don't want to see the boring old Battle Rifle/Carbine layout? Great, we've added one of those (also very underloved) Sentinel Beams! Take that rocket whore (Input your best friend's name for "Rocket Whore") out... To dinner of course!

After you've solved the problem with that pesky rocket and asked them to dinner, why not take a stroll with them down the curved hall? It'll be worth your while because a KOTH hill spawns here, as well as that godly sniper I told you to get earlier. Take people out from your vantage point or skill jump your way across the gap back up onto Bridge, which evidently leads to rockets.

But, what if you don't feel like doing this, and getting up in your friend's grill instead? First of all, make sure you know the proper definition of grill, and then walk your way over to the hallway of grass walls. In the corner, just sitting there alone, is your new best friend - The shotty rifle... I mean shotgun. Treat her nicely, and you'll get back secks! (Yet again, proper definition is given in the earlier link or if you click here)

By the time the game is over, you'll have made 3 new friends, gotten the shotgun's number, and had a good laugh with your friends. But hey, why not play again!? The fun doesn't just stop with the one gametype!
