    This looks great, from what I can see everything is flawless. I like how you used the back of the map and not the usual area that is used. Based on what I see now, I'll give you 10/10. As for gameplay, I'll get back to you on that. I can see it'll be awesome though. You get a definant download from me.

    Wow this map is beeping amazing. I have never seen a map that uses the back part of foundry like that and still makes the map amazing to play on. Im definatly going to DL this and keep it on my harddrive. Even if the gameplay isnt good (although from the sounds of things its amazing), i will keep just to inspire me. Your forging ability is incredible, cheers to you. I love how you geomerged the fence wall and the sign in the back alley, i can never do that. Sweet job and I cant wait to get a good game on it.

    5/5

    epic review coming soon to a computer near you. until then ill tie you down with my brief comments that stuck out before i go more in depth later. this is seriously one of my F-A-V-O-R-I-T-E maps. now, if this gets anything less than a feature, i eat my hat, my dog, and my other dog. the layout is new and original, and the awesomeness doesnt stop coming. some of the most revolutionary geomerging ive seen, seriously, how did you get a double box geomerged into a base? with nothing but a slight bump if any. i remember when you were working on this a while back, and one of the things that crossed my mind was, "well, i thought i was good a geomerging!". i aplaud you and your map, Linubidix. this is one for the ages.

    id give you a 5 out of 5, but id shoot myself for insulting you.

    This map is nothing short of revolutionary. Honestly. I thought I had seen some pretty good maps that used the back halls of Foundry...but this rises WAY above them! I cannot imagine how many games it took you to make this. I was really surprised to see the incredible geomerging, but I see that you did everything for a reason. The aesthetics are fantastic. Really, they are naturally awesome because the already enclosed feel of Foundry's back alleyways feel perfectly incorporated into the map. I would love to try to build something like this, but I would be stealing your idea completely, and it probably wouldn't turn out as nice, so I won't. I wonder how the gameplay will turn out. I am gonna try it out and come back, although I think gameplay would also be nothing short of awesome.

    I lovd this map. The gameplay sticks out from the rest. There were very few hiccups in testing, little to none. All of them are fixed now though and I can say this is one of the most innovative forges I've seen in a while. It was a pleasure testing this and it will continue being please playing this. I love this map. Remedy is teh epic win and I might just post a review but I might be to lazy. Either way, I've gotta say this is an awesome map.

    Remedy or Redeemer lol

    Finally the map I have been waiting for from you and its finally here.
    I love this map, my favorite part of the whole thing, which other people probably agree with me on is the interlocked floor and the geomerging in the walls.
    This map has awesome interlocking in the floor. I checked and I didnt see much bumps in it that affect gameplay.

    Incredible Job on this map linubidix keep forging, please
    5/5!!

    Wow, That is one of the best maps I have ever seen. The Interlocking and Aesthetics are great! Expecially the difference in this map from any other. My friend downloaded it and showed it to me. It plays really good! 5/5

    Wow this looks amazing. Close to perfect even. The only problem is the room in the third pic feels a little open. Other than that the gameplay is amazing. It is hard to believe i'm even playing on foundry. It seems like it should be a dlc map (I'd pay money for it). I love how the map is focused on the lesser-used parts of foundry. 20/10

    when will you children learn that a map isnt too open if it has a semi spacious area in it...

    take last resort or valhalla for example? cold storage? thats like a giant empty room.

    Linu, I've been awaiting the arrival for this. This is a map that I need to play, and can't solely rely on pictures. I feel ashamed for this short post on such a great work of art, but I must. Once I get my xbox back I'll be sure to play this and come back ASAP with a review, though I already know it will be a 5/5. Just great work Linu, all your pieces get better and better with every thread.

    WOW! i like it! you use a intire new area of the map to make it! i cant beleive how well done it is! it is perfect. i cant beleive it. how long did it take you to do those geo-morging and inter locking. THIS IS PERFECT! (in my book)

    5/5 from what i see only.

    Remedy is EPIC WIN. I'm glad that I decided to 'join session in progress' because I wanted to see what you were making. I was like "dang sweet map". Your post is very organized. What's lacking is a video, LOL. But that is not really needed because you can already tell that this map is very good from the pictures. Some sexy merging is there as well. Good job.

    Well I've just downloaded it and the most I can do right now is a forge through considering I don't have Xbox Live right now. I will have the utmost respect for you if you accually got all that equipment, a rocket launcher, and a flamethrower all to work within what appears to be a close combat map.

    I think it's almost mandatory for me to comment on your post also. I love all the subtitles and how it accually has that Bioshock themed look. I also like how you have the little story behind it and how you accually were able to merge together the Halo story with a completely different game. You not have my respect for how much time and creativeness that went towards the map and this post alone. The only problem I encountered is the pictures loaded a little slow, but the quality and shape of them over-ruled that mishap. Good Job, Sir Linubidix.

    Will edit as soon as I get a couple games in, 1 week at latest.

    Here it is, probably one for the most epic, most orringinal layed out 2v2 map ive ever seen. Ive seen this in different stages since linu started. The geomerging is quite sexy i must say, how you geomerged in difficult places, mostly the back area of foundry seldom used. This is the bet map ive seen mad back there. Gameplay for 2v2 slayer was my fav and i had a lot of fun playtesting it, and that game of pesant hunt lololol. All in all this is a very well made map in a place no one really uses and is very unique. Congrats on an epic map, i think this fully deserves a feature for, gameplay, geomerging and making a very unique layout. =D

    I so totally tested this map, don't you remember me dying all the time?

    lol, this was a fun map, though I never got used to the whole 'its-symmetrical-but-not-really' thing.

    I downloaded this map this morning, it looks like it would play well but I havn't had a chance to play it yet. The geo-merging looks great, as with all your maps, but the only thing I've found that I don't like is the huge row of BRs al lined up in the courtyard.

    Also, I was gonna message you on XBL about this, but you removed me, sad face.

    This is absolutely amazing. I haven't had the pleasure to play it in an actual map yet, but just looking at it I can tell it will be a blast. When you're walking around, you totally forget you're in the backspace of Foundry. It's so complex and there are so many rooms that it seems too big to be built back there.

    Fantastic job man.

    From the moment I played this with Furry and Nevz a while back before it was released I knew this was an amazing map, even if it was the unfinished version I played!
    It's probably one of the only maps that uses a small part of Foundry that manages to maintain great gameplay.
    I don't usually like to rate maps, but if I had to I'd have to give this a 5/5.
    Well done on such a great map, and I hope to see this featured!

    I just loved how you only used the back end of foundry. Most maps leave it out. As well the use of the fence box within the back hallway was a good idea too. Overall the gameplay was pretty smooth, except my only suggestion would be to take out the teleporters. The map is small enough already, but by removing the teleporters it will take players longer to get to different areas of the map.
