    i love this map! it looks awesome aesthetically, and the fact that one sidehas a height advantage the other team can assault, gameplay would be interesting. 10/10

    A great aesthetic map deserves a great banner, meaning I think you could have done better on creating a banner for this thread. But from the looks of the pictures I can see that this map really turned out the way you wanted it to turn out. I like the way you used the different items that blackout supplies you with in forge, to create a very nice aesthetic spider with "eight legs". Nice job on this map man, personally I believe it deserves to be featured.

    I downloaded and played this map for a couple of games and wow...

    I love the map. The spider looks amazing from every angle you look at it, except for directly below where the hole is. Each leg (At least I believe every leg) is geo-merged into the map below and it really alters the map below. It's a pity the spider only has four eyes (it's supposed to have eight) and that the main body of the spider is a little open, but it doesn't really matter.

    And...

    I lol'd for a bit.

    This is by far, the most amazing aesthetic map I've EVER played on.

    10/5

    I had fun playing with friends, especially when they didn't know how to get back up, until I had to tell them there was a teleporter. :]

    FEATURE!

    Wow. I think this is the first successful aesthetic creature to "attack" Blackout.I tried, and it's VERY hard, especially with those height barriers being so low. Kudos to you.

    I saw this the other day, when you originally posted it but my computer froze. I'm so glad you finished this, I've been waiting for it to come out forever. It looks insane; it gives youa feeling of being really small. Which I love. Whoa, I just realized all the legs are green. That's why you called it eight emerald legs. I didn't understand it at first.

    Anyway Felipe, this is outstanding. I have to think this is gonna get featured, and you'll get premium. The list is pretty long for featured maps, but this belongs near the top. It's the most u nique Blackout map I've ever seen. Congrats on finally finishing, it's amazing.

    AAAAHHHH!!! very original idea, its like a 10x better remake of all the scarab maps. i also love the way the spider affects blackout, like the leg blocking the doorway. also, the face looks really cool. something i think that you could add would be to try and look like blackout had been devastated, like crates in a jumble and stuff like that. otherwise, i give it a 5/5 anyway

    I'm glad you liked my pancam screenshot enough to use it in your OP! If you need any more pancam screenshots of this map done, don't hesitate to ask me. I'm starting to get the hang of using pancam and I'll always be glad to help out. And massive lulz at the fact that my picture's bigger because I took it on an HDTV! XD

    Anyway, I've had multiple positive reply messages from people that I sent download recommendations to. Great job with the map, it seems to be becoming really popular! I haven't had a negative message yet.

    Incredible! This is by far the best Blackout map I have ever seen! Not only that, where most aesthetic maps are just for looks and neglect gameplay almost entirely, you made something that's perfect for just about any gametype!

    There's nothing bad I can say about this map, but it could be made impossibly good if you color-code the boxes! Also, could you make some more custom gametypes for this map?

    If this doesn't get featured, there are going to be a lot of angry e-mails to the mods/admins, and not just from me! :)

    now seeing the pancam shot, ive really come to grasp the most difficult part of building this map.... when building something so large, organizing it in your head without the use of sketchup (not foundry) is redonkulous!

    observing the limited use of objects and positioning them in a way that makes the structure actually look like a spider, without easily being able to just backup and make sure that all the boxes are straight, is pretty awsome. i never observed your forging abilitities till this moment felipe...gratz.

    This map is so sexy. Once again, you have created a great aesthetic map. It reminds me so much of Cloverfield...

    When I first joined a game when someone was forging through it, I was like what the f- is this? Then I looked up and I was all liek, holy shet. It is amazingly forged and one-of-a-kind.

    This was a "blast" as you young folk say.

    I actually enjoyed playing rockets on this map. (OMG, "enjoyed" ... "rockets"?). I particularly loved the "teleporter incident".

    I lol'd when you asked me to break test this map. I was like "Er, there's nothing to break?!" Which is a blessing really because it meant I could just enjoy playing the map, and enjoy I did.

    CTF Ruled as well. Mainly because Debo and I pwned. Nothing can defeat the ninja drop!

    In conclusion, best damn palm tree map I've ever played :)

    Feature nao plox! As you young folk say (young folk say too much!)
