    Hey forge community!
    This is my second map on forgehub and first competitive map.

    Some may see this and think it may look familiar, it's actually inspired from another map with a tree (Vanilla) and I loved the idea and incorporated in to mine.

    In this picture you can see a shotgun down the hall.

    The much inspired tree... you can get a feel from this for the whole map. It's perfectly symmetrical.

    Oh wow this map is small. Do you have any playtest videos on it?

    My first thought was "Oh, this is a map designed for 1v1 or maybe 4 player FFA" but you have so many power weapons. Conventional logic says this map simply wont work. The reasoning being that when someone respawns, their opponent will immediately find them again and use one of the two rockets or two snipers to kill them instantly. If not instantly, then at least too quick for you to get prepared to fight someone who has a power weapon.

    That said, I would love to see how intense a match on this map would actually play out.

    Edit: oh and Z fighting on the bridge

    Well, I was going for a small map map and I really liked rocket race from combat evolved and how the base floor wasn't that large but there were layers, so I added a back hallway and multiple ledges. Thanks for the input though, it's very much appreciated! Also never play tested it :/ all my friends are playing Black Ops...

    Not sure if you meant Rat Race... or Prisoner... haha cause Prisoner has the layers thing going while Rat Race is closest to what you just said... But anyways. I think it's pretty cool. As long as you added some back hallways and kinda balanced the weapons I'm sure it'll play nicely...

    and... just a question... Did you happen to name your map after Fortree on pokemon?? XD hahah

    Yes, that was what made me look at it.

    Looks cool though, I like small maps where chaos happens all the time. No camping around corners waiting for people to come up the Yellow Lift.

    I actually did name it off pokemon :) I just picked up my GBA and emerald once again. Oh and I fixed the z fighting on the bridge and re-imagined the weapons and placement. I'll put the new one up if anyone actually wants me to... Thanks for the downloads by the way!

    Edited by merge:


    I believe it may be prisoner... it can't be rat race as I believe I remember some portals and a hallway with a slope. On CE it was like a tall room and there was an invisibility cloak and the walls were green....
