    Welcome to my first post, Gooseland!
    The inspiration for this map came from youtube. My friend and I saw some really cool mongoose montages, so we tried it ourselves! I decided it was really fun but there wasn't very many good places to play, except our favourite, rat's nest. Since I joined forgehub, I decided I should post a map and I love goosing, so this is the result. This map is set up for 2 v 2 or 4 v 4. There are no weapons on the map, as you're supposed to use the sniper/bruteshot. I hope this map will be used to introduce others to the world of goosing.
    Backstory:
    Everything was normal in the city of Gooseville, Africa. Everything was fine, until all of a sudden, a huge covenant mothership flew all over the city, spewing sand everywhere and toppling buildings. Everyone rushed for their houses and called for help. The UNSC managed to deter their opponents, cleaning up the mess and attempting to fix the skyladder and a few buildings. The humans knew the place was uninhabitable, so they left the place forever. Many years later, the forerunners adapted the city, but they loved hawaii so much they left for a year of vacation. (lol) now, you get to use it as your own private playground!

    Yea buddy! EVERYONE loves Hawaii! The forging looks fair. I think you could have done a better job though. You have to make it looks smoother. I know it's suppose to be a werckage city, but make it looks smooth that it looks nice and easy to drive mongooses or mongeese on it. 3.9/5

    For a place meant for driving a mongoose, the driving is kinda bland. It's just the same flat area with a few obstacles. You could at least add some jumps, ramps, and mancannons. I do not see a single structure I could drive a mongoose onto.

    I agree with this idea to a certain extent.
    It needs more ground, yet the centre is not meant as the hotspot for this map, the dunes are, and have you ever tried sniping on the back of the mongoose? its almost impossible when theres constant unforseen twitching.
    Thanks 4 the post, i apreciate it. (spelling fail?)

    You have some great aesthetic ideas but they could be neater. Also I agree that there should be more structures to drive the gooses on and raise them off ground level , Jumps make the map more exciting as well.
