Foundry is a multiplayer map released for Halo 3 as part of the downloadable Heroic Map Pack. It was made available on December 11th, 2007. It was made exclusively for Forge, as almost all features of the map can be changed, deleted, or even replaced by any object that Forge has allowed.

Description

 
Foundry with all Forgeable objects deleted

There is no set description for Foundry, as it can be Forged into almost any configuration imaginable. The default configuration of Foundry is a mostly close-quarters, two level map with a few long hallways. The power weapons are distributed into the corners and center of the map. The Rocket Launcher is in the center on the second level, there are Brute Shots in each base, and Sniper Rifles are in the corners opposite the bases.

There is a crane on this map, as well as two shipping areas: A and B. Most of the boxes have "P425" printed on them, indicating possibly that that section of Foundry is Section P425, or it could be a serial number of some sort.

Getting out of Foundry

To get out of Foundry you first must be in Forge. This is much easier if everything is deleted beforehand. Become a monitor and fly into one of the windows, while holding forward and slightly up you will slowly move up the window. You will stop underneath a small ledge; continue holding the control stick and create a respawn point. If you followed the instructions correctly, you will see your respawn point outside through the window. You can then commit suicide and respawn out of the map. Once outside of the map you can create teleporters and move around outside of the map.

Be warned, many places you step outside of the map will cause you to either be killed by the Guardians or fall to your death.

Trivia

  • In the trash found on the floor, there is a blue draft notice paper.
  • On top of the crane, there seems to be a Forerunner glyph. It is clearly in the shape of a body, but it is neither human nor Covenant.
  • If you get past the fence behind the blue room, there is a poster of a soccer ball saying "It Glows".
  • If you get out of the map, there is another Foundry. Also, Foundry seems to be on water.
