    Attention: V2 coming out soon, do not download V1 because it's currently not on my fileshare.


    Description:

    This is my attempt at making a map based off of another map's design. Guardian has the most brilliant design and I'm sure most would agree, the long range of site, the perfect amount of cover, the unique style it had, and the way it was perfect for almost any game. I did my best at making The Dojo have the similar design to Guardian while still looking unique. So I give you, The Dojo.

    I rarely download any maps I see on any site, especially for any kind of competitive game play, but, you sir, have made something special. Looks amazing and I absolutely love the layout. I may modify to work with MLG game types if its good enough.

    You have my download and a trial by fire. I'm going to be playing it with a few 50's later today, so I'll get back to you.

    No, I don't plan on posting it, I was just going to get rid of all of the non-MLG weapons maybe replace the oversheild with a CP, maybe just get rid of it, Mauler bottom mid, just lay out the weapons like MLG Guardian, but with a twist.

    very nice map.
    i see that you got some good ideas so the layout is good too.
    maybe you could interlock some objects better,
    but overall good job

    "I really can see the idea's from Guardian portrayed here in this map. Super good layout and forging from what I can see in the pics. I like the others will definately be downloading this and as soon as I have an in-game review I will come back and let everyone know. I just have to find the time with all of my shoulder rehab and Vikings team meetings and such." says former Green Bay QB Brett Favre

    I can't believe you finished this map so fast, you musthave pulled an all-nighter. :) Anyway it looks solid! I like the design of Guardian and this map, because of a somewhat mirrored image. The bottom hall looks really nice and true to gameplay.

    If you make a V2 which I recommend, you should adrress these small things.

    Well first I would say, take more time :) just for good measure.

    Try to make a little bigger, by that I mean try to expand the width and size of rooms/areas.

    Try to add a little more cover in areas. Guardian had many blocks of sight, and after doing a Forgethrough, it seems that a few spots are missing it. I'm Dling today and I'll tell you what I think about gameplay wise.

    Good job and happy forging

    This looks amazing, though you may want to take of the effects for the pictures, it looks like it may have that blackout/guardian type of gameplay and looks to it, like i said, the map looks great and i will DL, great job.

    5/5

    I was there when this was tested, and it's fantastic. It feels like the map Guardian, so you might not have played on this map before, you can understand where to go. The forging was well done and neat, weapons are in good spots, and overall is was a really fun map. I recommend for a d/l guys.

    Glad to see you got this posted, and you did get it done pretty fast. I was excited to see how this would turn out and it looks fantastic. This will probably be a keeper on my HD. I can also definitely see how guardian inspired this map. Good job and keep up the good work. You should definitely be proud of yourself for this one.

    Edit: Just did a little playthrough and it lives up to its predecessor. My The weapon placement is pretty solid by the looks of it. And I love the man cannon, it can pretty much get you anywhere on that half of the map easily. Although it can also get you on top of the giant columns on the arches that I don't think you want to be accessible.

    Thanks Insanity Im glad you were able to get a party together so that I was able to test.

    Glad you liked the man cannon haha. Oh and I knew about the columns being accessable, they aren't really campable and I didn't want to swich the man cannon with a grav lift so I kept it as is.

    Hey dood i think the map looks great...and it does give off a Guardian vibe
    Good job on that, but the only thing is that i would change the gravity lifts to man cannons forged into where ever they are...just enough to push the person...it would make the map look smoother, in my opinion :D
    Good Job on the map :D

    this map is great! it's really smooth and such.

    one problem though is that the lift in pic 5 is really easy to fall out of the map when you are trying to go up it.

    overall it's still a good map

    4.5/5

    I don't really have a problem with the lift personally. But hey I'll take a look and try to see what you're talking about for my V2 of The Dojo.
