    Description
    Condo is an aesthetic map of a modern single floored apartment. The map contains many common rooms such as; kitchen, laundry room, living room, dinning room, office, patio, master bedroom, and a master bathroom. Everything is built actual size and, if I say so myself, everything is pretty damn realistic looking. Unfortunately this map is ment to be viewed in ONLY forge so its not set up for any custom games. So throughout the map I did use weapons to make some household items but I beg you to resist yourselves and not pick them up before you actually look at them. I have also hidden a shotgun just for kicks.

    Inspiration
    I have to give every single ounce of credit to Zatherla. He was the one that creatively forged the idea of using spawns and loud-out cameras with his map Apartment 5b. When I saw apartment 5b immeadiately I was impressed, but I felt that I could take the entire concept onto a new level. So once again all credit go's to Zatherla, but he did not help with the map.

    What, no video? Anyway, I was impressed even during its early stages. I'm not going to go as far as saying that this is better than Apartment 5B, actually, it might as well be at odds. You can see the influence Zatherla had on this map through the amazing attention to detail. Great job!

    OH MY GOD! The controls on one of the washing machines look insane!
    I think this could very well be better than Apartment 5B, not that we're playing that game...

    I really think your attention to detail is amazing. I hope to see a similar map in the future.

    This is a great looking map. You can see that this map really took a lot of patience and time to create. I know that it can be tedious working with small objects such as flag stands, but you seem to have a nack for it.

    I hope that you can incorporate aesthetics, like the ones on this maps, into maps that you can actually play on. I would love to see a competitive map with aesthetics like this.

    As much as I liked Apartment 5b, I think this outdoes it. Not by much though. I think that the little pictures in A5B were amazing and sooo awesome, but this map has a little tree and washing machines and is just jizz in mah pants awesome. Maybe I'm being a bit bias, but I think this map is either just as good or better. It's good to see your finished product of it, when I saw it it was only in the early stage of development. I don't mean to bash on A5B, really. I seriously can't believe what Zath has done. Don't get me wrong. Anyways, I really can't wait to see what you come up with next.

    Edited by merge:


    Yeah the only problem is that that you can't see initial cameras and stuff in game. But I guess I'll try. I have a few ideas in mind.
