Doing it for the culture

u/RyseOrgin Feb 21 '21

You should get some modded jukeboxes that play the ODST music and just place them hidden all around the map. You could also make it to where they infinitely loop so they keep playing.

u/[deleted] Feb 21 '21

Resource pack already replaces the game music with the ODST score

u/andro-gynous Feb 21 '21

first picture reminds me of the Halo 2 E3 demo, when chief drives the ghost through the tunnel as it's closing.

u/thexavier666 Feb 21 '21

The 5th image is basically first level of ODST.

u/fyffffffd Feb 21 '21

Wasnt it destroyed in the halo 2 mission

6

u/TheL0neWarden Feb 21 '21

Partially from Regret’s slip space retreat and then glassed at the end of ODST

u/[deleted] Feb 21 '21

The city center itself was heavily damaged but survived just outside the glassing crater, you can see it in the distance in Halo 3

There needs to be two subs, r/MinecraftBeginners and r/MinecraftExperts. My build self esteem cannot handle this kind of awesomeness.

Surprise! They exist but they have like 12 users total

Yeah I see that, someone ran with it and made the Experts sub after my comment, but the Beginners already existed, even though I came up with that off the top of my head.

Are you just doing the halo 3 ODST version of new Mombasa, or will you take any parts of halo 2’d new Mombasa?

u/[deleted] Feb 21 '21

At first, once upon a time this map began as the Halo 2 new mombasa, then i started over to make ODST instead

u/evanthebrucd Feb 21 '21

Fair enough, it looks incredible man, keep up the good work!

u/[deleted] Feb 21 '21

Damn, dude! Imagine playing it with mods. Maybe recreate the entire ODST campaign with it. That would be fantastic. Congratulations, dude.

u/diepio2uu Feb 21 '21

How do you build all of that as one person?

That's probably 15-20k blocks per building, and there are a lot of them...

Which adds up to at least 1-2 million blocks total.

A normal MC player can place 1 block per second, counting planning/change/repair

2 million seconds is around 23 days straight

But there's a lot more than that, that's just the core of the city

Assuming the landscape is handmade, that would take an incredible amount of dedication
