    lol thanks. and sorry but it just borthers me when people say isolation and not Isolated. oh well...

    wow you win the award for person who likes my map the most. lol. im glad you like the map and i inspired you to think of some more ideas. i dont want to switch the pictures around tho. because my main focus is sort of on the tower. but it's also a good thing if only the people that read through the whole thing comment.

    yeah i really like how you have made the hall way out of fence walls it looks unique. the only thing letting it down i think is the open middle. but otherwise its great

    That pic alone has earned you a dl. I'll report back later.
    The thing that worries me is that it seems a bit too open.
    But I'll find out later

    thanks

    thank, i don't think you'll be disappointed, the opennesss doesnt make gameplay worse at all, in fact it's probably better open like that.

    Why does everyone think it's too open?ya it's a little open but it's supposed to be. well at least you like it. thanks

    thanks

    ya i saw that rep, "he has a freakin amazing map" lol. thanks

    This map is an epic win! You did a great job! After playing this map a few times over and over with my friends we did find a few things we didn't like.... We didn't like the fact that you can jump on the roof of the main building...and we saw that in bigger sized parties....(5v5) The map was a little unbalanced once a team starting controlling the main building or the higher points in the map...Although we did see you did a good job balancing it with smaller parties...(4v4, 3v3, ect..) with those little "outer" rooms towards the bases. If we spawned in or near those it was great because we could grab the br or carbine and attempt to take out some people up top....I was a little discouraged at the tower made of barriers and such though...because once it falls down (at least when I tested it)....it never spawned back up...(it just kept on falling down :( .....Other than those few small problems great job!

    oh i didn't like the fact that it's possible to jump on the roof either. those stupid supply limits took away some pretty neat aspects i wanted to add... and the unbalancing, i never really experienced that, i'll have to play it some more to figure it out. and the tower never spawns back because i had trouble with that, when it would respawn, it would destruct itself because not all of the barriers/crates fall at the same time, therefore, when a barrier wanted to respawn, there was most likely another barrier in the way already so the tower would fall once again. anyway thanks for the good feedback.

    Evan: consider your feed backed. If that makes any sense at all. o_O


    But seriously, this is by far your best map. However, certain spots do feel kind of "thrown together" if you will. In my opinion, the worst part about Isolated was the spawn tunnels. During the test, all the defensive team had to do in One Bomb was enter the tunnel and hold it, preventing the Offensive team from even getting the bomb. IMO, every area put in a map should have at least two exit routes, because the "one entry, one exit" thing only leads to camping. You have a Shotgun and a Beam Rifle on your map, and both of those allow for camping. Even though it's "a legitimate strategy," camping should be hard to pull off, not easy like it is in your spawn tunnels.
    If you wanted to spawn someone safely (which you always should), you should've just made the map so the tunnels had at least two entrances & exits, as no one likes being cornered.

    As for everything else though, it was awesome! The middle was a bit too open for my taste (but you had vehicles, so that's justified), but your fortified base was absolutely beautiful. The fencing was honestly breathtaking, and your walkable surfaces inside were smooth and bump-free. I also loved the different methods of getting inside the base, like climbing on top or sneaking in the back. Too few people think of secret passageways anymore, which is sad.

    I also loved the Mongoose hill. Rather than boring staircases or bridges, I really liked that you took the initiative and made something that was out of the ordinary. It had a Gradient-style feel to it, and I loved it.

    Overall, this was an excellent map (especially the Forgegasmic destructible tower, except when it splattered me xD). If you ever plan on doing a v2 or improving it, please tell me so I can help out. I have a few ideas that would hopefully benefit your map very much. =D

    thanks for the very good feedback that actually helps me in a way. ok so the attacker spawn tunnel. i didnt mention this but i added a little drop zone kind of. the atackers and their bomb spawn above the tunnel sort of but it's still possible for people to jump up there. i think a v 2 is definitely possible and i think one revision i will make is eliminating one of the spawn tunnels so i can have enough objects to make the other spawn tunnel bigger. thanks for all the complements as well. i'll send you an inv when your on so you can share your ideas with me. oh and btw, im gonna make Interrobang a canvas map for me cus i couldnt find out how to get there... i almost had it by myself too. sad face... oh well thanks for making Interrobang so i can use it! hehe. but i dont think i will have the patience to make a map as good as Interrobang.

    i actually posted this a couple of days ago... ya. but anyway thanks
