    You guys wanted it. You guys asked for it...

    You got it.

    As you guys might know, this is a BTB map being made (and almost finished) by Cerberus Beast and AceOfSpades0707. It is most likely going to support 8-16 players. There are 2 Warthogs, 4 Mongooses, 2 Ghosts (one asymmetric, one symmetric), a Rocket Launcher, and 2 Beam Rifles.

    And now, I present you with much more revealing pictures.

    Red Base

    Red Side Tower

    The 'Claw'
    [​IMG]

    Neutral Base Connection
    [​IMG]

    Blue Base and Connecting Structures (note: one wall has not spawned yet.)
    [​IMG]

    I will not post an overview picture so do not ask for one. This is as much as I will show you. Do not ask for more.

    Comments and suggestions are appreciated.

    I see no vehicles in your map...

    Also, can I get an equipment list? And was the claw your middle structure you were talking about in your teaser? I'm also guessing the neutral base is opposite the claw...spotted no weapons on the neutral base though

    Looks pretty cool so far. I see that you guys have got a little creative when making some of those structures. They look very nice.

    I look forward to seeing the final product. :)

    1 Warthog and two mongooses spawn behind each base. A Ghost spawns behind blue base in asymmetric games and a Ghost spawns in between the obelisks in the 4th picture.

    Weapons/Equipment are not finalized yet so, no, I cannot give a weapons/equipment list.

    Yes the claw was the central structure and yes the neutral part is opposite the claw.

    I'm in ur map, geomergin' ur grav lifts. In response to yeti: We spent a good deal of time finalizing, tweaking, and editing the structures to get to where they are now. All of the changes we made were for the good of gameplay, including replacing two geomerges in the sand. Thanks for supporting the map, and we'll notify you when we release!

    Hey looks good. When I flew around it looked good but I can see you added some things since my fly through. Send me an invite when you're testing this.

    I'm not saying at all that you stole it. It just looks somewhat similar



    The only thing I really suggest is make things on the sand dunes or else people are going to just sit up there and play anyway.

    It looks amazing though.

    Actually i kinda helped with the idea for the corner pillars for the tower (they were trying to figure out what to do with it so it worked, i gave some suggestions tossed some things out when i was getting a sneak peak and i got lucky :p they picked some of my ideas for it XD and although i helped with it, i take no credit. without them forging the 'floating' tower my idea would have never came to mind)

    That tower is also one of my favorite parts on the map.. for reasons you all will find out when you DL and play it :p

    It's an amazing map and i can't wait til testing starts :D. I think Ace and Cerb did a great job!

    I hope this gets featured its unique is a lot of ways. It looks like it can turn out to be a great shotty snipers map. If you can make a gametype that fits the maps style. it's good to finallly see an original map turn up. Good luck

    Let's not rush the "FAETURE NAO"s.
    Looks stunningly good, though. Let's hope it plays equally nice.
    Overview plea- Ah, crud. Yeah, I know...
    I'll just have to watch the ground in each screenshot and make an overview in my mind.

    Thanks for all of the comments, guys. Ace is going to be away for the weekend I think, but I will try to run some pickup tests anytime that I am on. If anyone who wants to test feels an incredible and undeniably urge to do so, please send a friend request to Cerberus Beast.

    Claw is awesome. Blue base makes red base looks like a pansy. I know what team I'll be picking in the pregame lobby. This map looks really awesome though, what I'm guessing the layout to be is a great layout, although I feel neutral base will get much more traffic than the claw. Also I don't really liked how rocks are placed, I wish they were easier to get too, seems suicide to try and get them on foot.
