    nice job with the map! really creative with the gate and grav lift stuff, people usually just use power ups/dumpsters/man cannons for that stuff. nice job it looks really good from the pictures, think i gotta try it when i get on again. u get an x/x! yay 100%! lol, looks really good.

    probably been said before but yellow is hard to see for the users using old school theme

    looks like a nice ffa map, although there are times when you can be overpowered because of uneven distribution of higher ground

    We played a 5-man FFA on this yesterday, and I must say that I enjoyed the map thoroughly. I completely forgot about the dumpster door, and I don't think anyone ever opened it. I meant to do a forgethrough of the map this morning so I could leave you some feedback on the spawns/gametypes, but I didn't have time. Suffice it to say that I enjoyed myself and I've got a gamevee link to the game we played.

    BTW-I won't apologize for my lame playing; I make it widely known that I'm a crappy player. Plus I'm old.

    I must admit the map was quite enjoyable. The shotgun as u can see in squidhands video is extremely good on the map but wasnt too overpowering the invis and OS were both placed out of the way to force the player to actually go get them instead of being on the way to something. I enjoyed the layout it was very reminesent of Cyclopean and Renegade. Overall it was a good map and a nice map to mess around with friends.

    squidhands it looks like you had slot of fun I'm going to re do some of the interlocking and change up the gametypes. I'm planning
    to add koth and a certain starting point system for multi team gametypes so watch out for that. Another thing, I doubled my record for downloads XD r
    the map has over 175 downloads now so I am extremely happy.

    Boy, I've owed you a post on this for a very long time. I finally went to check out the map today, and was impressed; you've definitely grown forging wise from that one game I spent bothering you and Gunslinger as he built you a wall, ha ha.

    The map plays decently enough and is very reminisce of Troika and Renegade, Troika-wise being the obvious bridge layout yet Renegade wise being the lack of building structures while maintaining a layout through the use of merged single and double boxes.

    This being said; the map itself is very sloppy in some areas. There are a few areas I can name that look a bit second rate and more of an afterthought, but since maps aren't truly about aesthetics I can't really critique you about such things. A slight change to the layout can really open up some passages a bit, you could tidy up a few walls here or there, and this map would be astounding. Along with this, the map itself is very easily escapable - I've sent a video clip of it to you via Live, so don't worry.

    In a nutshell: tidy up a few areas, make a few slight layout changes and I can see this featurable in the future. Invite me to a game sometime, I'll help you out more in depth. ;)

    A very good looking map, it contains a lot of things in it that make it look pretty damn sweet.

    First of all the geomerging is great. It looks excellent to the eye, and it sure does play well. I enjoyed a good bit of rumble pit on it as well. And the interlocking is great as well. So keep up the good work!

    Fence walls!!!

    once i get a look at v2 and then the up-coming v3, itll be a feature in my book as well.

    one thing I haven't seen anyone else mention, it the switch.

    in a game somebody usually doesn't want to stand in the open to shoot the grav lift 5 times with a BR, and they cant just casually throw nades into the slot because the hole has no backing to it.

    so what i suggest is to use those 9 fencewalls to block of esapee portions, and to place a backing on the switch box so that we can just throw nades into it.

    unless your TRYING to get us to take the time to activate the switch...

    but i dont think the passage is worth taking such time to open because of the upstairs passage.

    Domi i completly agree dude because certain sections of the map have the geomerged box multi-terrain like Renegade while being separated into two or three rooms of these like in Troika.
    and also i love the sig XD i'd been wondering what the point of that quote was.

    aaaaah but the thing i enjoy the most is that ths map is NOT Renegade, NOR is it Troika. it is it's own glorious combination, unique in it's own way.
    p.s. redownloading the V2 so theres another DL for your lovely record ^^

    this was an absolute joy to play and its a real good example of what a foundry designer at his best looks like
    i like the way it looks and game play especially on slayer (team preferably) is just great
