    Now I know that it will be hard to make win with all this stuff on it, but I have played this a bunch of times, and the longest the round has ever lasted was to the grav lifts, never past the Man cannons

    Yeah... can see them now, but you may want to take the FX off on your pics. The last 4 images look like one big blur and can't see anything.

    Yeah I agree on that, also can you change the text font and colour for this post. Its hard to read. Looks like an okay map from what I can see.

    LOL I wanted you too see how the map gets... so ill leave those on.. but later when im not busy ill add the same pics without the FX... I changed the font color, is it easier to read... I can read it fine either way, but what do you think as far as the map goes? good, bad? creative, boring? I need constructive critisism lol... I tried to make it so that the people knocked out of the hill still can participate in the game and effect it....

    My qualms with this map are the effects... seriously what the hell where you thinking! As well as the whole "I fell of the map so now I go to the tank and bombard everyone else" thing. Maybe put this in the sky bubble take off those stupid effects and add in some other stuff apart from grav lifts and kill balls (think original like pillars or something) and this might be a good map.

    ill take the effects off l8r... but i like the fact that you can still influence the game after you get knocked out, and the wraith isnt as powerful as you think

    I actually like the effects. Plus, they aren't all there at the start of the round, (are they?).
    But the real problem with this map is that it's not that original. There has to be at least 100 remakes of Monster Jam/Monster Trucks, so you've got a lot of competition and have to think of something that people will want to download, especially since people won't want to have 5 different Monster Trucks. Sorry, but it doesn't live up to what it should be. Check out my two monster trucks maps below to see some examples of original monster truck ideas. They don't even have to be the most well put-together map.

    One other thing, people aren't going to kill themselves when they fall off. They won't want to. that's what's great about the Sky Bubble. However there are ways to do it in the crypt, but it uses killballs and grav lifts and mancannons...all of which you used.

    I agree, why not set it up in the sky bubble and have the people who fall off respawn in boxes to the side with brute shots with unlimited ammo then they can knock people off and have a time limit of 1 min. i think only then the map would be worthy of download compared to other maps of this style.

    The map it self looks like you've stolen monster trucks, hidden it underground and added wraiths, i do like the king of the hill aspect though, it adds a scoring system that works rarther than the frankly terrible old one. I think if you follow my advice and keep it up with the king of the hill aspect it will be a good map, now however its not what i am looking for in a map of this style, i want something more...

    Sorry if this is a bit harsh but im just trying to help.

    Why even make it in the crypt to begin with. Dying when you fall off was the whole purpose of moster trucks. I just don't understand why anyone would ever make a monster jam in the crypt, it's pointless. To do the whole brute shot thing mentioned, simply use starting points on the map and spawn points in the spaw boxes.

    why didnt you just make this in the skybox? it wouldve made it a lot easier to forge and wouldve eliminated the honor rules thing.
