    Hey guys I'm currently working on my map Containment. After so much apreciated test from our fellows at the Testers Guild I have made a major update to the map.
    Its been bugging me with the recent update though so I thought I'd leave it to you guys to vote. With the new update I have added a 'Shotgun Cell' structure to the map and was wondering should I change my loadout camera from the 'Solitary Cell' to the new 'Shotgun Cell'?

    Check out what it looks like so far here: Containment
    *Please no comments though if you feel the urge to give some criticism or feedback PM me

    The shotgun cell shows more and is more central from the pictures. I can tell more about the map from the shotgun cell, which is what a loadout cam should do. Plus, I know where to find a power weapon and a healthpack from the start.

    See this is exactly what I was thinking. If you've looked at the photobucket album what was originally where the shotgun cells are were plain & boring kingom-esque platforms that weren't that good looking. There something about this cell that just draws attention.

    Thanks so far to everyone that has voter. And special thanks to Flyingshoe for your feedback. Keep up the feedback I have high hopes for this map.

    What about an overview over the center, it's nice to get a good widened amera to get in some info.

    Ok that's reasonable I was going for a single item look to tie in with the map name but anyone who agrees with sugar just leave a comment and I'll try to put up a picture of the middle to let everyone see. Thanks for the thought sugar.

    It looks cooler if the camera is pointing down or up. Keeping it level doesn't look as good. Don't overdo it though. Any more than about 10 degrees up or 30 degrees down can disorient players.
