    Tired of Matchmaking? Can't get a big party started? Only have 2 or 3 minutes? Try this.

    The Gametype
    Heads up is a 1v1 slayer gametype. Nine rounds, First to one kill wins the round. Random weapon spawns. Forced color black.

    The Map
    The Stage is a basic arena map with a few twists. Instead of using shield doors in the start, players are "drop spawned" behind a wall. The players also start so they cannot just shoot immediatly with a sniper to get a kill.

    Damn Benji, I wish I was around to test this :(.

    It looks like a great, fun 1v1 map. Anyway, what aesthetics are there, are nice. Nice job. I'll have to try it once I get my XBox back. ;)

    Cool map, sad that it is only 1vs1 though. No spectator boxes?

    Recommendations:

    • Add spectator boxes. Spectator boxes are inescapable boxes that extra players are put in where they can watch the action.
    • Add multiple chambers so it can be turned into a tournament-type map. I haven't seen one of those in a while, it would be a great addition to ForgeHub.
    • If you decide to ignore the previously stated constructive criticism, try to decorate your one chamber more. Looks bland.

    This map is well made and excellent for what it is designed for.
    I hate it when I have to wait 5 mins to join a party and it is just enough time that I dont have time to join a game solo.
    Excellent job and I like Benji he was awesome. Kudos
