    Yay, I playtested that! It is a truly amazing map with beautiful structures for incredibly smooth gameplay.

    BTW: Was I in that game that the pictures were taken in? (If you remember) I think I see myself in the second pic jumping with a Brute Shot.

    Now hurry up and release it so I can play it! It looks amazing, but how about you give the map a name I can pronounce...

    Well... if he has any musical taste at all, he basing it off of a "the devil wears prada" song called "sassafras", which is an awesome song BTW, of not that... then idk why, and idk what it is either. lol

    Sassafras is a type of tree. It has nothing at all to do with the map at this moment (Ace and I will probably right some bullshit backstory so people wont ***** lol,) but it's somewhat memorable and stands out among the usual map names that I see around here (in my opinion, anyway.)

    Honestly, I just happened to be listening to the song Sassafras while I was suggesting to Ace that we rename the map to something that can be easily distinguishable/sounds better. I went to change the song that I was listening to (which was, indeed, Sassafras by The Devil Wears Prada) when I realized that it just sounded like it could fit the map better than the previous name.

    Here's a short video clip from a game of Team Slayer.

    FINALLY Scobra made a crypt map. Long overdue, buddy.

    But really, Noxiw, Spades and yourself are working on like 3 maps at a time. Guess it keeps you motivated, eh?

    EDIT. I'm loving all those sexy curves around everywhere. Spades and yourself make an awesome team.

    I had sex with this map.

    It is seriously just that good. I was freaking out during Nondual's games over how much I loved the map, after playing it like twice.

    Thanks for the feedback Lippy! Also, if you don't mind me asking, out of the two gametypes that were played (Team Slayer and Multi Flag) which felt like it played the best?

    I'd say Slayer. This is just my personal bias, but crypt maps and flag games never quite tickled my fancy when they're put together. But in this case it was pretty good, I just liked Slayer better.

    Whatever happened to Miami Nights, by the way? We played that once about a month ago and it was a cool-ass map, haven't heard anything about it since.

    Thanks for the input.

    As for MNights, I'm reworking a few things on it.

    This map does play like a Grande Bottle of Epic Sauce Squared.
    I love it everytime we play it with Nondual... too bad his schedule has changed and we haven't been able to play it nor any of our other more recent maps.
