Beacon This map is set on the coastline section of the island on forge. It consists of a few buildings (A 2 story house that has 3 rock ramps to the first floor and 2 rock ramps to the second floor. A one story building. And a one story shack). A lighthouse with access to the top by a teleporter on the bottom floor and from a man cannon in front of the house. There is a sniper ledge accessible by grav lift or rock ramp. Each side spawns with a mongoose. This map would be awesome or TS, One Flag CTF or Assault. Could also be a very fun Team Snipers map. The rockets are in the base of the lighthouse. The sniper is on the sniper ledge. the shotgun is under the sniper tower. And there are DMRs, needle rifles, and various other weapons scattered around the map. I just need some testing done to see if the spawns are OK and to see how games play out on this map. I did a lot of careful placement of all the locations to try and make this map flow really good. So if anyone can help test I would greatly appreciate it.

I will message the both of you next time I get on Live. I added a download link at the bottom of the first post if you want to test it out with some friends. 4v4 or 5v5 would probably be most suitable for this map.
Just downloaded the map. On the West side of the island, the first mancannon (light) needs to be oriented better so that you dont F up lol. Some of the aethstatics could be made more professional looking by using building blocks. Need to align your ramps a little bit better, you can pres in the left control stick for slower movement.
Thanks for downloading and trying the map out. And thanks for the critcism. Honestly I thought the aesthetics for the buildings weren't that bad. I didn't use any premade and I don't have any blocks left at all because I used them up making the 3 buildings. And which ramps are you talking about? If it's the rock ones they are supposed to be a little off and bumpy. It would be kind of weird to have a perfectly aligned rock ramp. It's supposed to have a more natural look to it. But did you happen to play any slayer games on this or anything? I'm mainly interested in how the map plays but I haven't been able to get enough people together to have a full game.
