    This is a map I've been working on for a while, Psychoduck helped me with a few aesthetics/cover, and gave me a little advice on some larger features too, but about 98% of the actual forging was by me, with about 95% of the ideas of my origin. Whatever went into it doesn't matter, I feel like the map turned out well, but I want to see what other people think and possibly give me advice on spawns and weapons, and possibly a good name, because A.W.I.P. stands for Awesome Work In Progress. -_-
    There's just a couple of spawns and falcons, and a rocket launcher in the center. So...here's the image dump I guess.

    Edit: Yeah...Pyschoduck, copypasting the url is much easier than what you were doing. It took less than ten seconds to post each screenshot. :p
    Remember next time: rightclick image, properties, copy url, paste it-well, where it says to paste the url.

    Picture 3: Bad spawns... you should never have a player spawning into a pitfall. It creates confusion + disorientation at the start of their life. Plus, players don't often want to be on a lower level as it's more dominant to be up high, so it's likely this will piss players off.


    Other than that, it looks like it has an interesting layout and is cleanly forged :)

    Inferno: I like what you've done with the map since I last saw it. The center looks great, and hopefully will provide plenty of cover. Of course, the real test for the map will be seeing how well the falcons work. There's about a million things to tweak in that regard like cover placement, weapons, weapon placement, weapon respawn time, falcon respawn time, and spawn placement. If the falcons are unbalanced at first (they likely will be, there's just too many factors to guess on), you can always ask me for some more help. Oracle taught me a lot about falcons. Anyway, there's still a few things about the map I don't like, but overall, it looks quite good.

    Stevo: I believe that spawn is just for forging. Spawns will be completely redone later.

    I havent worked on the spawns yet, those aren't going to be there when I work on spawns, I think it would be stupid to have spawns right there too.
    Nice to know my first real map(after getting the hang of H:R forge) is good.

    Well just because one person says your map looks good after seeing a preview, it doesn't always mean the map is good. However, I have seen (and slightly contributed to) the map in person and I am sure that the map will be good. The only question is how much balancing will need to be done. I am definitely looking forward to testing this!

    Well, I know that it isn't good just by one person opinion...what I meant was that someone approves from here, from the Testing Guild too, :)D) I mean, you know what was going on at the time, it's sort of hard to concentrate on a forum post when you are worrying about more important things...
