I would love for the Scarab to be a unique vehicle like KingHippp0 said. That would be so sikk!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

‘Tinyownage’: not to be confused with ‘tiny ownage,’ which means ‘just a little.’

I didn’t know ‘it’s not a remake of Midship’ had been said before, but thanks for clearing it up.

I”m flattered that people would think I spent enough time to stretch this image in photoshop, that’s not the case at all. Here’s what I did:

Grabbed a double-sized sheet computer paper, folded it in half so it was 8 1/2 by 11, booted up my dev kit, grabbed a recent build of Purple Reign, positioned stood in one place and then just sketched out what I saw. Had one of the creative services guys scan it in, and then dumped color into it via photoshop, choosing only to color the HUD and Assault Rifle with any “detail” and made the rest of the map Purple and made the skybox not-purple.

The image wasn’t the right size for a Wallpaper so we added blackbars to it and made it the right size for a wallpaper and watermarked it.

And because it never seems to settle in: Purple Reign is a new map. It is not inspired by, influenced by or based on Midship.

A crashed Pelican vs. Destroyed Scarab map would be pretty awesome…until you see Spartans spawning in the Scarab and Elites spawning in the Pelican. That would ruin everything. (Forced character selection anyone?)

I always wanted the dead scarab on Sandtrap to have carved out bunker structure/ inside’o’scarab base to act as another ‘base’.. and for the crashed pelican on the other side to be setup the same way.
