A competitive map designed with vehicle combat in mind. Specifically, awesome and extreme Ghost action. The map is symmetrical, built for capture the flag, and is made up of these “bowl” platforms. There's two bowls on each side of the map. The bowl in the upper left area of this image would be the location of one team's flag. And in between those bowls you've got a small platform (sideways stairs) holding a Beam Rifle and regenerator. The center of the map consists of this extra large bowl. Connected to that center bowl are two walled off areas. Look towards the upper right area of that image and you'll see a small hole in the ground. Jump through it and you'll land here: Down here I've got a few narrow walkways leading to and from a room underneath the center bowl. Offers an easy escape from any unfriendly Ghosts and a great way to sneak the enemy flag over to your base. When playing this map your job is to grab a Ghost, hit the side of a bowl, and get some Wicked sweet air! To jump from one bowl to another you’ll need to hit the boost to get the speed to cover the distance. But don’t just mash down the left trigger. Do that and you’ll overshoot the platform you're aiming for. Having trouble landing the jump? Stop boosting as soon as your Ghost leaves the ground, you’re more likely to get caught inside the bowl and not slide out. Outrageous Advice! To get a vehicle, run over to one of the boxes floating over the bowls, grab the custom powerup underneath the box, and out falls a Ghost. These things won’t be constantly filled though, Ghosts respawn inside the box after three minutes have passed. Each team gets two Ghost boxes on their side of the level, but only the box hanging over your flag is going to be holding a Ghost when the game starts, the second Ghost shows up three minutes later. Now, for anyone interested, here’s a list of the map’s weapons and their respective spawn times. Each team will have on their side of the map: 2x Carbines: 10 (seconds) 2x Plasma Rifles: 30 1x Needler: 60 1x Beam Rifl Whoa brother! No time for weapon lists, get that weak stuff out of here, make some room for more GHOST JUMPING ACTION Kicken Rad! Midair highfive! Nice One! YEEEEAAAAAH The map supports CTF, assault, territories, and king of the hill. And let me point out that you can get back to the regular Blackout map. Unfortunately, because of the distance a Ghost can cover, I really couldn’t get around this problem. Luckily though, jumping onto the Blackout building isn’t really going to help anyone, in fact the player’s absence is just going to hurt the rest of his team, so I don’t see this being a issue during games.

sorry, didn't see pics. i like the idea of this map. well thought out!!!! nice floating action and nice gameplay. too much floating lol. 5/5
woo its done! Really happy you finished this! The gameplay is suuper interesting, and unlike any map i've seen. Definitely going to check out the finished version closer and get some games goin here soon. I'll be back with more comments.
This looks epic. I'll DL and get back to you later, but I'm guessing another feature is on the way. The originality is there (X Games style ghost jumps in a competitive map?), the aesthetics are there (awesome interlocked bowls), and the gameplay is probably there as well. Amazing map. PS: do you ever make anything on Foundry?
This does look amazing. How did you think of such an amazing map? I also love how you say if you don't know if your good enough, play on a different map. Thats simply great. Its like, if you don't have enough balls, then go look at a smaller less sweeet map! Congrats. I know this is going to be featured real soon. If it doesn't, well then, I will be simply mad. Great job, I'm downloading it right now as I speak.
Holy...........this is one of the greatest maps I've seen! Profssionally put together, looks extremely fun, and floating. I'll admit I love when peopel make floating maps on Blackout, they're some of my fav maps to play on. This is a defienate dl 5/5.
sorry, i couldnt really tell the layout of the map, only that from the first picture, its very vast, and looks very clean. but i really like the first picture with the sillouette of the map, and the bowl portion looks very interesting. i like how you used the ghost. most of the time on a blackout map, everything is too cramped to use a vehicle, so its new, and original. if only blackout wasnt so dark.
This is very cool! I love the idea and your interlocking is flawless. Amazing 11/10 I love your idea and kit is very origonal. The gameplay and aesthletics look sound and I have never seen anything like it. I don't understand how you made the first pic but it really looks cool. This map is DEFINATELY worth a download I will have to check it out...
Lol I'm definately gonna have to give this a DL. Looks like some crazy fun random ghost-jumpin' action... especially since I consider myself to be somewhat of an expert at ghost driving (splatter sprees are a very, very common occurrence) Looks awesome, great idea, easily a 4.5/5
this map looks epic, your interlocking is perfect, with a schweet layout. its tough forging up there, you did an awesome job, im DL'ing now, hope i remember to get back to you on that, 5/5 Oh, may i suggest something...your map lacks geomerging ; ) jk kid, keep it up.
Back from playing it, and I have to add its possible to get back on Blackout. with and without a ghost.
Looks like a pretty sick map. I can't believe you made premium with 100 some posts lol. Your maps are pretty good though. I like the whole idea of ghost gameplay, but is it still pretty competetive?
I think your map is awesome because i am sick-nasty with Ghosts!! 4/5. Also, is it just me or is there a Grav-hammer in pic #6???
