    I was curios if this map had mlg potential. The only thing on it is br's and grenades right now. It's also a little bumpy around the (X) so I think I wanna fix that before I release it. I could use some help with weapon layout and just maybe adding a couple more obstacles. Or is there to much clutter already. I think there's some pretty good lines of site (but not really sure). Please Check it out let me know thank you.

    Not sure if I can put a download link here so there isn't one sorry.

    Based on the pictures, it looks like it could be too cluttered bottom mid. The geometry of the map looks pretty sweet though. My only suggestion is to try to clear up some of the cluttered areas, and maybe make some longer lines of sight.

    I agree with ^ some of the objects in the centre are highly packed in and the line of sight is basically nothing. Also sine you've cut out both the outsides to make a kind of tie-shaped map it seems whoever takes control of the middle can basically spawn kill with Brs. (Valhalla-style basically)

    I actually rather like the idea..
    Theres alot you cant see from pictures, however, it's got its own unique style as it is rather cluttered, which personally, i like.
    What i would suggest though, is making the bases a little more covered. They seem very open at the minute and it gives the map a feel that you spent too long in the middle and too little on the outskirts.
    I'd be happy to fly around if you'd like and give you some input :)

    Thanks for all your help do think the map could do without the colored column ramps at top mid. i made that to get on top of the structure of the map. it does ad some clutter though.I think it also ads cover though also please send friend request dude do that fly around with me. thanks again

    Honestly, this map looks really cool and I would love to play on it. The clutter might be a fun change so yeah i think it looks cool.

    with a name like 'hallucination', I feel this map is a perfect candidate for the rarely used 'Old timey' Filter.

    I also think that you should have some of your structures incorporate a delayed spawn so that they appear throughout the gameplay so people are like " WTF did this just appear? am I hallucinating?"- Also, this might help combat your 'Cluttered bottom' that a few people have commented on.

    If you need help testing feel free to toss an invite my way-
    best of luck

    I would just delete the stone platforms under bottom mid. I would then make some walls or little huts or tree-like things or pillars or the such in the corners to spawn behind or maybe to have a path to the top mid. That is where the controlling team will camp. Do NOT place power weapons or any weapons for that matter anywhere in the middle except the bottom.

    I don't think taking out the stone platforms is such a good idea, because they are part of the support structure. I want the map to have a strong beastly type feel to it. I could take the blue and red column ramps out but that would take cover away from top mid. And dirt jockey i don't think adding a filter is what I want to do, because I spent so much time trying to get the aesthetics right I feel like the filter would ruin it. Sounded like a good idea at first though thanks.
