    Thats pretty mad track, with the first jump do you have to hit it at top speed to make it?

    Interlocking and the visuals are fantastic i am downloading this now.

    i cant see all pictures cause my internet is very slow but with the starting point you go from there to the first turn ( what happens if people ignore this and go somewhere else anyway downloading now.

    Yes it helps to hit it at top speed for all the jumps and also try not to turn while making the jump for this causes flips.u can ignore the entrance but u will miss the whole mid section of the race.

    UUUUUHHH get dsl

    First of all, I wouldn't use the effects on the pictures as they take longer to load and just take away from the knowledge you obtain from them. Moving on to the track, it was better than I had expected. Most of the jumps worked great, and the aesthetics are awesome, but some parts could have been smoother. Most notably, the death drop. I had to ramp down to the lower part to stay on my Mongoose, because if you take the outside and try to stay on the track, you often flip. The final jump had only two man cannons, which was weird, but I guess it works if you pay attention. The main problem is that you have multiple checkpoints placed around the track. The RACETRACKS gametype (with which you said to use) uses only one checkpoint as a lap counter. Otherwise, it's a decent track. I hope to see more from you in the future.

    Hey, you should put a kill ball at the bottom of the death drop. That would make it more ironic. Anyways, nice race map.

    Yeah this is a pretty beast racetrack. Great aesthetics, I mean all the beasts just add a great feel to the map. There are a few bumps here and there but nothing much. My favorite part after going through would probably have to be the death drop, pretty unique and you pick up a lot of speed.

    At the end where you are supposed to jump into the last monster's "mouth", there aren't enough mancannons. That caused me to fall and not even get close to making it. You need to add more mancannons, not just at random spots on the jump.

    Looks pretty good but it is hard to tell because of the effect. I really like the beast but I can't tell if it looks cool because of the effect. 7/10 so far

    "THE BEAST" full review

    THE BEAST on Sandbox by DIEabolical

    Errors:
    --Not 3 manconnons at the end. Everyone fell at that part
    --you can wall onto the track on the 1st turn and land on one of the last turns of the track.
    --don't EVER put a warthog on a mongoose track... bad idea.
    --the snake tunnel was NOT good. Everyone kept hitting walls no matter what side they took...
    --There is multiple destination points... RACETRACKS game type only uses one destination

    Good things:
    --The main idea of the map is pretty good. Just wasn't built perfectly.
    --Aesthetics were AMAZING! there needs to be more maps with aesthetics as good as yours
    --death drop turn was... unique. people said "WOW!" thats always a good thing.
    --THE BEAST made my entire party say... "HOLY CRAP".

    Suggestions:
    --Look at some track making tutorials that could impoove you're tracks... They are very rough. They had MAJOR potential. They just could have been made better
    --Always have 3 mancannons if you're doing a ramp like th last ramp and the "next jump". Otherwise people WILL fall.
    --I can't give you tips on aesthetics because you've got those down...
    --try NOT to use tapering so often... its can get VERY bumpy. One lesson they many track makers use when making tracks is that you should NEVER taper anything unless you HAVE TO.
    --

    Final Thoughts:AMAZING aesthetics... The track had some brilliant Ideas, they just weren't made as good as they could have been made.

    Final Rating:
    Difficulty - 4/5
    Creativity - 5/5
    Flow - 3/5
    Race-Ability - 4/5
    Clarity - 3/5
    Entertainment - 5/5
    Overall - 4/5

    (If you need some track making video tutorials then I can get you some)

    Id really like to see if you can improve on some of the issues that have been presented in this thread. There really hasnt ever been a track like this before, and its almost an instant classic, save for those few spots.

    If you find the time to fix up some stuff with this, you'd have a real gem on your hands.

    I was going to review this map, but decided not to. The score would have been unfair. However, I really liked the design of the map. There were several major problems with the set up. I can give you my honest word that I can turn this map into a gem. I could probably fix everything in about an hour. If you are interested contact me, if not oh well.
