Greetings: Ok, let's get this over with. Once again, I am posting another map for the community. I would first off give a big thanks on my invasion map, Power Zone, that got 64 downloads! Holy cow, that's crazy. But that's another story. How it happened: Face Off originally was a map back in February that came together as a upper and lower courtyard and two bases with three floors. I scrapped the map but kept it at hold in case the chance came where I could of polished it and then I tweaked it up to have a map that may compete with some of the better maps out there. Overview: Face Off is a small symmetrical map based on two bases directly in front of each other with a underground system that connects these two divisions into one. A hallway on each side is found in the back and each base has two floors. Each side on the outer edges of Face Off lead to a stair case to the bottom courtyard. A smaller set of hallways each take you to the back of each side with a shield lift. Two shield lifts are also set in each base to get to the top of the map. Health packs can be found in the bases or in the back hallways. Weapons 2x Assault Rifles: 2 extra clips 30 sec. 2x Plasma Repeaters: 30 sec. 4x DMRs 2 extra clips 45 sec. 2x Needle Rifles 2 extra clips 40 sec. 4x Magnums 1 extra clip 30 sec. 2x Plasma Pistols 30 sec. 6x Frags. 6x Plasma grenades. 1X Needler 2 extra clips 120 sec. 1x Shotgun 1 extra clip 120 sec. 1x Grenade Launcher 3 extra clips 150 sec. 1x Concussion Rifle 1 extra clip 120 sec. Preffered Gametypes: Personally, I believe that slayer, assault, and oddball play best with this map but I have made this map for most gametypes for whatever you find best. Inspiration: I would say that I was inspired by Beaver Creek for its bases and Snowbound for its battles underground. I was inspired also by lots of forgers to create a more aesthetic map which I lacked in a lot of my maps. Notes I changed the top base and replaced the cover with braces instead The shield lift in the back is now angled for a more proper lift rather than a bouncy movement. Team Headhunter may not play well, I had difficulty setting it up on head hunter. The ceiling has also been raised slightly.

I hope you all enjoy the map. I once again hope to see comments based on constructive criticism and some players enjoying the map. Please comment guys, I enjoy reading what you think and enjoy hearing your opinions because this was for the community. Enjoy ladies and gentlemen.
No comments? Sheesh. Anyways, I'll be the first to say that I regret not getting a chance to play on this before you posted it. I love the tunnels with the water- sucha very nice aesthetic touch. Also, the obj platform looks super smexy. I would like to get some games on this with you sugar ****, so hit me up.
I can't help but notice myself in the 9th picture.. ha, anyway this map was a lot of fun to play oddball on. i liked the flooded lower level and the oddball spawn. great forging, keep it up.. and yeah, what Vrogger said.. i thought of indiana jones when i first saw it.. remember? i said i needed a bag of sand to swap for the skull.
this map looks incredible for some carnage with a few friends the tunnels are very brilliant im glad you didnt go with making them more of a sewer system style which gives the underground what looks like plenty of breathing room for some intense battles underneath, overall i really enjoy the look of this map and the ideas behind it and im glad you ended up making it and not giving up on a unique idea like this feel free to send a friend request GT SilentRaine i wouldnt mind joining you in some customs on this definately giving it a download great work.
I loved testing this map on Oddball. It was a lot of fun. I didn't get a chance before to see the initial spawn of the skull. That is a really cool spawn idea to give the oddball it's own stand. It looks a little bit like my Rocket Launcher and Plasma Pistol spawn on Relinquish. It is nice to see that you finally posted this map.
Wow, these are some sweet comments guys. Here we go. @EightBall thanks man, I am very happy to here a featured forger enjoyed the aesthetics and gameplay on this. I tried so hard to get a game with you because I wanted to see what you guys thought but by like 11 at night your game was full so I decided to post it before it is forgotten. @vrogger ha, marcass said the same thing. Hope you liked the map's gameplay as well. @Marcass Yeah, your famous Marcass haha. I never really thought about indiana jones setting that up but it would be funny if i setted a kill ball just to crack a joke once somebody grabs the oddball. Thanks again for playing the map with me Marcass. I hope to see some great maps from you again. @Silentraine Gladly will add you. Thanks for the comment. I find the sewer systems unoriginal and too common so I wanted something that looks more supporting than rocks. Glad to hear you like this more than that.
I am glad you posted this, i had tons of fun with evade on this map : ) The oddball platform has little holes on the sides allowing access to the bottom and it makes for some interesting gameplay, anyone who downloads this will not be displeased. great job
