    B: View from upper red base (mancannon leads to hill complex base)
    C: Red side firebase (Has DMR, Frags. Hill Complex in BG)

    I. Red side road entrance and teleport exit (teleport entrance is behind red base. Also note Mancannon goalposts to slow players from opposing side. Needle Rifles are near goalposts)
    J. Red side hill complex. (Focus rifle, plasma grenades. This leads to the mancannons)
    K. Blue side hill mancannons (Straight one goes to Red side, angled one leads to center dish)
    L. Entire Center complex.

    So.... thoughts? I'd be very grateful for any feedback. Thanks guys.

    So, I hit the global item limit right as I was in the middle of placing multi-team spawns. I've deleted some superfluous soft kill zones and will be removing some of my (many) headhunter/Crazy KoTH turn in points to get enough objects left to finish multi-team spawns and hopefully get 5 or so invasion slayer hills.

    I'm worried about deleting the soft kill zones though- as they were on anti-camping locations and could potentially make oddball a little annoying- and I guess Race is totally out of the question now.

    The problem is- it's as big of a map as Hemorrhage, with all the buildings of The Cage. I think v9 will have a lot of tweaked respawns, as I intend to make more use out of less.

    After hearing some initial feedback, it occurred to me not that I need more weapons, but the weapons I have need to be more spread out. The centralized weapon storage on Hemorrhage works because the bases are the only buildings- but I have a lot more structures that will draw players that I should move some weapons to.

    Having to delete things to make room for the global item limit sucks.

    Is your map covered with a safe zone or sorrounded with kill zones?

    3 soft safe's provide the play area, 3 hard kill zones below for when players fall off. Used to have 4-6 soft kill zones in areas above hard kill, that players might try to exploit. Now I have only 2 or so.

    The hard kills are to needed. The safes should just have their bottoms off the ground so the timer does the rest.

    Three items freed up.

    Delerium has been updated with the following changes:

    Invasion Slayer now supported.
    Multiple teams supported for slayer, oddball, territories, headhunter and KOTH.
    Respawns totally reworked.
    Re-arranged the Needle Rifle, Plasma Pistol, and Pistol. Added Health packs and frag grenades.

    I'm submitting it to the Tester's Guild, but I'd certainly love to hear from ANYONE regarding this map. Thank you.

    Anyone?

    Some older feedback from another thread (thread was discussing global item limit).
