    ***Release v1.3.6 is newest published version***

    ***Screenshots updated 11/6/10***

    Map Description:
    This complex once hosted crucial inter-government meetings. Obviously they didn't go so well.

    I have been told by many people that this map has a great aesthetic look to it so anyone who is wanted a cool complex with atriums, elevators, doors and armored doors for their machinima are welcome to use this! The environment is very believeable as a high-end, expensive building lobby for your filming needs!

    I just ask that I get credit in your films or any work you use it with.

    VIDEO PLAYTHROUGH:
    Sorry I get off to a slow start - I just love sitting in that turret loft ;)

    Very pretty, I see you've taken your time with this one. I did a forge through and this has to be one of the more astonishing maps that's been posted in the last few weeks. LoS are all good, the map flows well, the weapons are no big deal, and the aesthetics are breathtaking [sorta goes without saying]. Good job man, this could be a feature in the near future.

    question: is the falcon purely for aesthetics?

    Yes the Falcon is just for looks...like the hornet in Rats Nest. I would love to see a good filmmaker make some machinima with this so I popped it over here for this crowd to see. I am planning on submitting it into Forgetacular for Team Slayer.

    While this is beautifully made, it shouldgo in competative,as it has weapons etc. I'm planning on making some machinima with friends, would you mind if I used this?

    I did post this into Competitive as well. I did not see anywhere that I could not post into multiple categories sine I believe it does count for both.

    Go ahead and use it no problem. Delete the weapons and stuff if you need to.

    Yeah, I was thinking this belongs in Competitive as well. I mean hell, I could make a map that's focused on visuals, game play, racing, and mini games and post it into all categories too. I wouldn't though because when most people make maps, they focus on one of these qualities, This is quite obviously game play oriented rather than visuals.

    It does look quite fun, but you won't be getting a DL from me because I don't like to play slayer in customs. It looks nicely set up though.

    /request to move?

    The mods can lock this or delete it if they feel it doesn't belong. I am sure they are aware of my thread for the same map in competitive. I just wanted to make sure the machinima guys that dont look in the competitive forum saw what I made.

    *It does say in the forum section description that machinima maps are welcome here and a user already asked if they could use it so I think I have warranted this threads value.

    Truly a beautiful map, the incorporation of the maps natural features into the well thought-out building are a great combination. The map runs surprisingly smooth gameplay wise and is very easy on the eyes. Inspiring work, keep it up. 10/10 Appearance 10/10 Play.

    Hey thanks for the generous comments! I don't really know how to follow up a double dose of 10/10. I make maps for the challenge, the enjoyment of playing and the reflected interest from others so it sounds like a mission accomplished as far as you are concerned.
