Map
Dr. Richard’s Ring, Net, 2-4 players (8-24-97)
Basic Map Characteristics
Dr. Richard’s Ring is a Marathon ∞ net map (an update of a M Inf map) made with Jjaro texture. It can support 2-6 players but 2-4 are recommended. All modes of game play are possible. There are no aliens in this small 5D vacuum level. One 2X recharger is exposed but sucklage is very plausible. The map layout is a ring with a easy-to-figure-out 5D overlay. The ball is on the hill and the hill is the center-non-5D hall (outside, not indoors).
Physics
There are three weapons physics models available. In each, the damage inflicted by each weapon is loosely consistent with the standard model. Sounds and visuals have been enhanced to maximize the coolness of play.
Hints
Snipe in the dark 5D areas and/or keep moving. Bag the oxygen for more than three players (you should be die’n too much).
Thank You's
I want to thank Bungie and the developers of Forge and Anvil, also, to other map makers who’ve given me advice and insight. I want to say thanks as well to the hard-working folks at the hyperarchives and other areas who give all maps exposure. They’re styl’n. I am grateful to Red Sonya, Dante, Marsha Brady, Light’em Up and especially Relic who consistently test and play my maps and provide valuable feedback (e.g.“Smear!” and “Where are all the weapons?”).
