    hey maki, you finally posted up your map! I just wanted to say that this map is really good and it has potential. the one thing that is bad about the map is that if you control the top you will pretty much win. i think that you also built the bridge too high, people that are on the bridge could possibly see the entire map & maybe even spawn kill.

    i also think that people on the bottom won't be able to shoot the people up top that well. It is a good map overall. Btw why didn't I get credit for teaching you how to make the bridge? :( Anyways, it is a good map overall from my opinion.

    I think that your other map was way better though. The one with the huge cylinder made with tubes built in the middle level of sandbox.
    EDIT: i forgot to say that your map has good aesthetics xD

    The top of the bridge does have advantages, like the open view of the map, but it is hardly safe up there. There is no cover whatsoever so anyone with a decent BR should be able to take you down especially with a partner. Because of the slant on the bridge you also cannot see when someone is approaching from either side. It's fun to snipe up there, but it's not an invincible position.

    Thanks for showing me your method for building slopes.

    Omg this looks orgasmic! I have never seen such an eye-appealing map, you truly deserve kudos my friend because I really like this. Definitly thought you were done with maps considering there was a wide break between two of your maps, and again, you didnt seize to amaze me. A nice concluding map to release before ODST drops, and with lots of creativity in this map, it keeps you as one of my favorite forgers. good job.

    Thanks Flair. I did take an extended break. I was posting a map every other week for a while there, and just needed some time away from forge. I've been playing a lot of matchmaking lately. Glad you like this one. I have two more that are in the beginning stages.

    Thanks jedi, those walls combined with the arches were the most time consuming part of the map. Moving them back and forth until just the pattern of the walls showed through the arches took me a long time. I never thought of them as "ocean" like, but I guess they do have a flowing water look to them.

    Why do you have to wait to get ODST before downloading?

    This has a Renegade, halo 2's Gemini, and all around Bungie look to it. Looks so great! I'll have to download this one and get back to you with my forge through. I love your maps, mar.

    Wow, I thought I already posted on this. I guess not. This is really a great map, definitely worth a DL. Maybe a feature. The bridge is really cool, along with the rest of the map. The map is very balanced, and has a lot of height variation, which I like. The battling in the lower level is really fun, since its blocked off in certain areas, and really open in other areas. The bridge works very well with your map. It provides a temporary advantage as long as every one is below you.

    Did you fix the area on the tower where you could camp behind the shield door?

    Yeah, I angled the shield door in slightly. You can still get behind it a little bit, some of your body will be sticking out. It would really only come in to play on oddball though. Thanks for your help testing, cory.

    Wow, I love this map. It's aesthenticly perfect. The gameplay is also very
    good but I think the shining point is the side bases. Great job! I'm definitaly
    reccomending this to get featured.

    Can I ask you how you did that perfect arc? I want to implement that in some of my maps.
