    Thanks for the feedback and I'm working on a v2 with Kidbomber a little bit and we're fixing a few problems and maybe more cover will be included with that update.

    This is the very first map ive seen with patched walls (The barrier to make the map unbreakable). That was a very creative touch you added, but i recommend you interlock it to make it look nicer.

    Interlocking and geomerging is amazing.The curved tunnel was was a very nice touch with its superb interlocking and those geomerged tunnels were very well geomerged.

    Thanks, the guy who posted above you, Kidbomber, is helping with a v2 and we will be fixing up a lot of the interlocking and the geomerging. The camo box will be re-geomerged, the stairs fixed because you can jump up little ledges on the sides to get out of the map (thanks to DeathToll77 who found that escape).The map will be unbreakable.

    This will have to be featured, it is just amazing! I can see that everything is interlocked and that the curved tunnel that must have taken you 40 plus hours. I love the sniper tower look and I especially like the natural look of the map. The checkerboard design is very creative and it must have taken a long time to get everything floating, smoothed, and curved. I also like the map name, 5/5.

    Can you say..... great songs/ and better map! This looks so new and untouched. Your forging mind is a mazing. I personally like the bridge platform with the window floor! This is clean and took skill and time. Great map, better post, like the vid!

    The tunnel took over 40 hours definitely. In a v2, I'm going to work on it even more. Thanks for the feature recommendation. :D
    The best part about the window panel floor in the sniper tower is that you can drop down through them to assassinate your enemies.
    Can you add a little more to your post because that could be considered spam. Lol though :D.

    Wow. First off the overview of the map is great. I really like the curved tunnel, that is a really good feature to this map. Secondly, the base structures are very whell built. The interlocking is very good. Lastly some parts of the map have a nice arena feel, I like that in maps. 4.9/5

    I figured it would ruin the one-liner...


    But I have actually played a small team game on this map (somewhat) recently, and from what I remember it was relatively balanced and competitive.

    Maybe a bit more cover could've been used over by sniper side (w/ the pillars), as I remember spawning there a couple times and feeling somewhat exposed, but other than that the map looks and plays well.

    I'm liking the curved tunnel and grated floor, and the shield door doesn't come into play often enough for me to criticize its usage, so I'll give the map a thumbs up and a solid 8.5/10.

    Happy?

    Better thanks. The shield door isn't something you notice when it's there, but rather when it's not there. In previous versions of the map, the moment you grabbed the camo, you would be naded to death. The shield door is there to simply prevent nades from being thrown in the front. Grenades can still be bounced off the back to kill any possible campers, but the shield door does it's job well.

    This map is pretty amazing interlocking and geomerging, the map's gameplay isn't bad either. I really didn't have a chance to see where you placed the weapons because a couple buddies and myself had it on random weapons, but even then the map didn't seem unfair in any way. Awesome map! 10/10!

    Hm. Random weapons? That's one I'll have to try! The weapons spawns are:

    -Sniper on the shelf (bridges)
    -Mauler next to the "B" sign sticking out of the body of the double box floor
    -Smgs in the sniper tower, and next to the merged ramp (both duals)
    -BRs scattered around the map (there are 7 of them)
    -Carbines, one in the tunnel and one next to the "B" sign on the opposite side of the map than the merged ramp.

    Hope that helps you know where the weapons are and thanks for the comment.

    Great map
    I love the semi-octagonal corner
    Your interlocking and geomerging are to the point of perfection
    This map is great for small tactical teams
    Add a brute shot to the defender side and your good.
    9.9/10
    Oh yes. Love the window panel shortcut

    Thanks for the review. I can't add a brute shot though because then Maverick would be heaven for map breakers. It's already possible to break the map, and I just can't add that, sorry. :D Gameplay really shines through 1v1, 2v2, and 3v3 tactical games, and crazy king is... well... crazy.

    Wow i love the stair walls. The outside wall is pretty cool also. Gameplay looks like it would be a blast also. I'll Dl and check it out closer.

    Thanks, hope to see your review. And the walls are being fixed in a v2 where they will be higher or someway prevent map escaping. It will be unbreakable thanks to DeathToll77 and other members of the Map Breakers Guild. I'm going to submit it to ATLAS under doubles which is a group on Bnet that Shishka started to put new community maps into matchmaking!
