Man this map is unbelieveable! The statue on the Loadscreen at the point gave me chills and it kinda reminded me in a part during Dante's Inferno! At first I thought the map was symmetrical but once I saw the uses of the Tall Tower, I was totally amazed. I could really use that kind of talent because I'm stuck in the making of my map. But anyways keep up the great work man!
i dk bout the gameplay but the aesthetics look absolutely amazing, that statue in the first picture got you a DL from me, even if the gameplay isnt the greatest you definitely have some damn good forge skills.
I'm liking the Focus Rifles, its a great change of pace from snipers on 90% of the maps posted, they encourage team play as well due to their semi-low damage output. The map aesthetics are awesome as well, the statue is one of the few things done with the rocks thats truly original, I've been trying to use them creatively and honestly never thought of doing a statue, it might end up in one of my maps someday I haven't done more than a 2v2 with friends but next time I'm in a custom games lobby I'll be sure to bust this one out.
So, I must say this map truly has potential. Clearly the Buddha statue makes this map. I can't wait to see the second version you are working on. I have a couple of suggestions. I think that removing the fuel rod gun and replacing it with a sword improves both gameplay and aesthetic appeal. Also, I feel like a layout similar to that of Gemini from Halo 2 would suit this map well. While I was playing this map one thing that irked me was that my opponents would hole up in one of your outer towers and camp because there was only one way up. Overall, this map is beautiful and i can't wait to see what you have done to improve the second version.
