This is a a discussion topic for the map "dm_hangemhigh" by Notion which can be found here

Map description:

Hang 'Em High, one of the greatest MP maps of all-time now worth playing on HL2. This is my first HL2DM map, and really just a fun map to make. I know theres two other versions out there but IMO this is the only one worth playing. And yeah its beta so please dont bash, I probably wont do much more to it anyway. Its pretty accurate to the original and has solid, fun gameplay, thanks for checking it out.

@Xris, Snarkpits regulars frown on members who join specifically to vote a map 10/10.

If you did not do this and its merely a coincidence, then you have my apology in advance. I however have reviewed/critiqued several 1,000 maps and this is not a 10/10 map, so I am doubtful as to your true motivation.

However, as I stated, this is not quite a killbox so I imagine it will not receive to much flaming.

@Notion, I wish you had taken a moment to look over the maps here before you posted. It might have saved you some small grief.

Its not to horrible, the 2/10 is fair considering.
shrugs

I do not speak for the entire site, I am commenting in generalities when I say "this type map fares poorly here"

For its class, I believe it deserves a 10/10. In comparison to the other dm_hangemhigh on this site, at least. It may not be a great overall map, especially for those of you who are hardcore on the HL2DM maps, but I voted on it for the type of map it is.

It cant get more then a 5 because its a rework, and a rework of a bad map to begin with :/ im sure if i were a hardcore halo fan i would appreciate it much more but i were a hardcore halo fan i would be playing it atmo instead of looking on a predominantly hl2 map site :)

Wow this site has a very active userbase. Anyways, I aprecceate any and all forms of commentary, as I'm sure every map maker does. Of course, this map is but a 3 hour whim, but the feedback alone is enough to give me motivation for real projects. I hope to post up some real work soon.

I don't care whether it's a port or not, it's ugly as hell.

Screens make it look like sh**. Maybe you should download it before you hit the 'submit' button. Anyways thanks for the input.

I see absolutely no discernible difference between the screens you posted, and the map itself..
shrugs
perhaps, you are seeing the "true" image in the screenshots and finally see what I see?

Hmm. I loved the map in halo. You made it pretty good, only why the hanging man in the middle .. you're calling your map 'fun' .. That's not funny, that's sick!!
And you should look at the lighting in halo, it's very different.
