    Ataraxy v2


    (News about the v2)
    1. New ideas for cover up top and different quick jumps to places instead of all dumpsters.
    2. Removing extra spawn points that are useless.
    3. Changing spawn times on equipment.
    4. Moving/Changing weapons.
    5. Adding Call out markers (By adding overshield and activecamo in the boxes) in 2 of the 3 towers. Spiker Platform will now be Red Tower, Tower Kiddy-corner of Red Tower will be Blue Tower. And the 3rd tower by the base will just be BR Tower.
    6. Raising up all old walls in the boxes another fence wall in height so you can actually crouch behind them.

    Description:
    Lots of Interlocking used ​

    Ataraxy is a Aymmetric map set up for all game types, but it is really fun when you play one sided gametypes. There are two main spawn areas one inside the "base" (which is used in one sided gametypes) and one in the "Sniper Corner" (It is called sniper corner because it is close to the sniper). ​


    When you spawn in the base you can either jump up on the boxes that are shaped like a square U or you can go right through a box to get the shotgun.​

    If you chose to go for the shotgun you will then see a tower like platform which holds 2 spikers.​

    If you chose to go for the square U you will find a bridge leading to the middle of the map holding a brute shot you can either then jump on the real U or go left down a ramp and be at the sniper spawn.​


    When you spawn at the sniper corner you have three choses, you can either go right down the bridges that lead to a small tower and if you dont go all the way down the bridge to can drop down after the first bridge and grab the sniper.​

    If you chose to go to the left you will be led down a pathway that is behind the real U, it has a needler, and a carbine. When you get to the end of the pathway you will be led to the tower like platform that holds the spikers.​


    Ataraxy plays best with 4-8 players


    If this was all to confusing please have a look at the pictures, also it would be nice to see some feedback on how it looks and what could be done to make it better thanks​

    Sick map man. The layout looks nice. Very few interlocking flaws, that I can see. The design is open and original. The structures are neat. It looks good. I will DL when I can.

    could you please point out what pictures need more interlocking? i looked over them and from my experience here, this is a very tight map, my only concern is that players may not be able to jump onto those full boxes, i suppose you have dumpsters or other geo merged items to allow a double jump tho
    nice map

    This looks really well made with nice interlocking and aesthetics. The weapons look balanced and everything looks smooth. While on the ground though, it looks a bit open and there are only a couple ways to get to the higher levels which might affect gameplay. Other wise good job. 9/10

    Hey guys thanks for all the good feedback about the map, my first version was rained down upon with, not enough cover, to open, and not very original. So seeing all of you guys give my map a good rateing it will make me strive to make even better maps.

    Also i dont know why people keep saying its great for infection, its mainly ment for FFA, One-Sided Objectives, and Team Slayer, but everything else you can still do but those are what its mainly for.
