    BLOOM

    Hey all, so this is my latest, it's an inverse symm that plays fast.
    I went with a simplistic design that flows well.
    I have no story behind it, I just designed and forged something that i'd like to play on and hope others might as well.

    Heh, how ironic it is that I just Dl'd this off your File Share and looked at it at like 3 this morning. Haha. It looks pretty nice, the only thing I didn't like were the glass cover wall thingies, everything else was awesome. The staircase-floored hallway looks awesome, great use of objects. And I dunno why, but I like top mid a lot. Just something about it new and different, I guess. I dunno.

    Thanks Erupt. Ya, the glass walling was the best idea but I did wan't some more view of forge world and not leave it so indoors. I could have just railed it but I get some complaints for that. I'm glad you like top mid as I thought it might look too simple but I did put thought into it. Thanks for the fb :)

    Nice map Bleu. I really like that center piece you have going there, it's really creative. Also, the rock placement looks great. This map doesn't look to have to many aesthetisc, but just the right amount. Everything looks neatly forged and creative, I'll have to check it out when I get my xbox back. Looking forward to seeing more of your maps.

    Thanks man. It doesn't have too much going on because I'm using less than 5k on the map. I think I'm using quite a bit less than 5k actually. I updated the links to get rid of the snipes and rockets. Just replaced rockets with green gun. Everyone felt those power weapons were too op on that map.

    Another map you've released that looks like it could play well. Looks like it would play amazingly with CTF. I'll give it a download and hopefully it will stay on my harddrive for a long time.

    You've named your map Bloom. Does this mean that it will be incredibly random and broken?

    lol, most likely random and probably broken ;)

    I'm hoping with pw's off it will play the way i'd like it to..we're still testing and hopefully it does. :)

    The gameplay on here is really quick but I like that. I do agree with erupt on the glass walls, but the rest is great.

    Hello! I really like this map and it is nicely layed out and structured. You have made some awesome maps and this is awesome too. I like your use of platforms! They are interesting decorated and keep the map looking good throughout. Nice choice using the tall 4 x 4 blocks too, I do like how they look. Nice layout and size for 4 v 4. The symmetrical lay out making this a good map for ctf. Great decision keeping loads of budget, ensuring good frame rate, well thought out. Unusual to see no power weapon to fight for initially and throughout game, but that also stops any power balance problems. Great work on this map :)

    [Edited] Although I do see a rocket was in center? But not on weapons list. I am a little confused but I'm guessing the power issue made you remove it? I think a sword would work well there as its good but not to overpowering.
    Also congrats on getting featured!
