    I like the looks of this map, small and fast paced. What was the piece count?

    I honestly don't remember, but less than Chain gang which can play 4v4s so the object count shouldn't be a problem.

    This looks sweet. I think the lighting is broken on those types of rocks though. I think the rock garden things would look way better if you use the texture on the spires. I really liked Chain Gang so I'm sure this map is gonna play well. Nice Work.

    I have added colors and fixed a few spawns. Over all the map is shaping up nicely.

    I played this map last night and was disappointed to see frame drops from the sniper towers. There were also several questionable spawns, namely the initials as the face right into a death put. The spawns facing the low walls on the bottom level could also be oriented better.

    Other than that, I found our slayer game to be pretty unfocused given the amount of connections around the map. Things flowed a bit too freely and randomly. I imagine the map plays better for hill, though.

    It's a really nice map; I just think it needs a bit more polish. :)

    I have deleted a few spawns and added some new ones to counteract the spawn trapping that could sometimes be a problem. As for the initial spawns, I don't think its a problem. Yeah you might jump off your first time playing it, but you shouldn't ever after that.

    If you do, however, then you are just contributing to my mild masochism and creating a dependence. I will have to start adding death pits even closer and eventually right under the spawns just to quench my thirst for blood. Eventually the cyber punishment won't be enough and I will have to kill for real! What have you done to me? Why would you continue to do these things even after I warned you of my problem?

    Probably because you suck at halo.
