    I never played sky castle ever before nor do i like fat kid but his map seems sort of okay. I will DL and see how it plays but if you want to improve you should create a whole castle in the sky and make it much much bigger. 3.5/5 Keep improving though.

    Edit: Yeah, first post! also use more interlocking.

    I dont like it, the base is messy and the game is boring and repititve because the zombie can only get up one way, although i do like the mongooses instead of hogs and the anti camp barriers in the bases. But besides that the map is the same with very minor tweaks that dont drasticly change the game, next time try changing the structure to improve gameplay 2/5

    to be honest this isn't worth a dl and some of the changes dont make much of a differance if you want to make a change and not just take credit for someone eles work you should create a whole new castle and if i was the guy who made sky castle i wouldent be happy about you taking credit for the map

    I'm currently working on a V3. I'm pretty much deleting the whole structure and starting over, hopefully for the better. It also features improved anti-camping and a new twist.

    I hate this map. Why make a v2 if it was bad to start with! Too many custom games of these sick me.

    Sweet!
    I hope V3 comes soon!

    Skycastle is me and my friends favorite map, and since I'm usually the party leader when we play customs, I I'm the one who always puts on Skycastle.
    This is one of the few maps that I have never deleted off my HDD (other then my own maps) even after months.

    I'm glad to see you fixed camping spots. I hope to see an alternate map of this on Sandbox, otherwise I'm going to have to make it myself =)

    Overall, this is great. I really can't wait to see the map in more detail, and see if you worked out annoying parts, and improved it (in sloppiness as well).

    2 Bases floatinf in the air is way over used. Its unoriginal, and shouldnt be made anymore. Maybe try making more then 2 bases and yeahh. It would be good if the idea wasnt over used though... =]

    Thank-you! Infection with one way to enter an overpowered fortress full of humans isn't my idea of entertainment, you could probably make more access points and less weapons to even things out. Also, make it so humans aren't screwed if they happen to be betrayed or fall out of the castle.

    This map isn't that orignal, it probably wasn't your map to start with, wasn't a good map to start with (like Katana Master said) and didn't need to be reposted many times with minor changes that might slightly alter gameplay.

    I can see a map like this used to frustrate the zombie into quitting out so you don't have to boot him and make him feel as if you hate him...LOL..but that's about it, it isn't fun from either view because when it's easy to get kills with no chalenge it isn't interesting. You need chalange, or at least I do, to make it fun and exciting and this map doesn't have that concept behind it untill it gets changed so much it's nothing like its V1

    Good point, I'm not positive and the creator shouldn't take it personally because many people do it, but people tend to post BETA versions a week before full versions or 2 maps that are exactly the same except for doing something anybody could do in 2 minutes
    because they want it to look like they made two different maps and it helps thier ForgeHub rank or something. It is cheap and shouldn't be allowed, there should be rules against incomplete versions or minor changed versions to maps and reposting not editing a previous post.

    I do hope the version 3 will actually be not what I expect and that he goes above and beyond with the concept of a floating base while making the gameplay fair, when/if the version 3 comes out I will edit my post to fit the new map and hope that it will look entirely different while actually keeping the main concept of this map (otherwise it wouldn't be a V3)

    All these skycastle maps suck. They're all one sided. Then you have those players that get on the base first and keep everyone else off the skycastle. If you have no skills and want to rack up kills by aiming in one spot, then these types of maps are for you.
