    Ahh, too many open areas. I suggest more cover in the middle area, Onslaught does a great job with it.

    Still, the map looks fantabulous and a great MLG map.

    Woah, merging the crane, that alone deserves plenty of credit. Easy 10/10. This also looks good with SWAT. Looks open though, so spawns worry me. Any problems with spawns that you know of?

    If you'll see the original post, I linked the MLG gametypes he recommended in the body text. Just look for the gray areas. They are the hyperlinks.

    This map is one of the best MLG style maps out there, and certainly tops Onslaught. It plays awesome for good TS games, but also works great with doubles.

    I've had this map for a long time now, and I have to say, its one of my favorite maps to play in customs with a bunch a friends for competitive games. I'm really glad this map got featured because people need to get this map. Definitely needs to be on the MLG circuit.

    great map

    great map guys! I love/hate you for this btw. Play is great and the merging is tight. Lots of testing makes great maps, people! you could have a single open box and make it exciting for 16 people if you test your map and test it again. Good job kron and nex. Inspiration. *back to forging*

    Well... if it makes the MLG circuit, which it should, you will see it in the MLG playlist.

    Thinking about Onslaught and other Foundry maps like this that have a chance to make MM, it would be really cool if some of the distinguished Forger put their talents towards a competitive standpoint, so this community could have a map featured in MM. Even if the makers don't agree with the style of MLG, it would really help distinguish this community even more. If Forge Hub teamed up with Nexn or another MLG forger, I could foresee some really tight maps. The MLG forger could set up the map for gameplay and basic layout while the Forge Hub forger would be able to help with balance, aesthetics, and spawns mainly (the v4 Onslaught's spawns are dreadful). It would also be great to have a creative Forger here help MLG branch out from the symmetrical Foundry maps that all resemble Onslaught or Midship. Just wishful thinking from a fan of both communities.

    This map is incredible and it's what MLG Onslaught SHOULD have been.

    This map is one of the best MLG maps ive seen. But i had some issues with jumps when playing it with friends. Mostly by the merged signs.

    It stands for Major League Gaming and it is basically competitive gaming in several games chosen for their balance, tactics and playability. There are whole season long rankings and multiple tournaments throughout each season as well as a grand final. The prize money is large, especially for Halo 3. There are also several 'celebrities' in the competitive scene, such as the OGRE twins, T2 and so on.

    Anyway, congratulations with the map, very tight production and can't wait for the next release. I have a feeling it will be a little different, just a hunch.

    Really? Are you talking about the latest version or the original? At any rate I don't think it changes my opinion. Both maps are good but in my opinion Lockdown is superior in every way.

    He helped with the original but not the newest versions. I will agree that this map is superior to Onslaught.
