    This definitely looks much better than Blaq Cloud's "Straits." The bases look mean as hell. Will definitely give this a download.

    I agree with nooooch that the forging is much cleaner and I think it would play better, but walking through in forge it felt like almost half the size of the original narrows. The use of platform XL pieces to denote the bases was an excellent idea and stands out well with the clean forging on the rest of the map.

    Since the size cuts out any chance of replicating narrows gameplay you might want to try modifying it to make it your own.

    You can't actually compare the two maps, because Straits isn't a remake.

    Anyways, The object coordination looks really good; but the middle bridge looks kind of thin (at least when looking at the mohawks). I'll probably end up downloading it though.

    I disagree with the notion that just because a map isn't scaled as accurately as the original that it doesn't mean it's a remake.

    Oh yeah, I totally forgot about that.

    It's called sarcasm.... Everybody and their mother knows Straights is a remake... A sloppy one at that. This on the other hand looks beautiful, and I highly doubt it has any awkward 45 degree angles shoved in. <3
    Lets just home it holds up to frame rate tests... I've yet to see a Narrows remake that performed well in even single screen. :(

    Forging on this looks great. Will be taking a walk-around on it soon to see if the accuracy matches up. If so, this is going to be my go-to Narrows from now on.

    I know it was sarcasm. I was being sarcastic too.

    Looks great, and the bases are awesome.
    The forge is clean too, and I had a lotta fun playing on it, with almost no problems.
    The bridge is sorta thin though...

    And also when I clicked your download link, it brought me to your map, like its supposed to, but everything was german... -.-

    Played it today. Was a fun 3-flag game... Till some one rage quit.
    Didn't get any noticeable frame drops, which was nice. Sadly, the man-cannons are a death trap more than ever... But that was something made apparent at the Chicago Arena already. Zero bloom, which is arguably the best settings in Reach, absolutely kill this map. :/

    Narrows Remake

    this is the best Narrows Remake ive ever played. the man cannons are working perfect as long as you play MLG Gametypes. This Remake is way better than the one in CGA. Im a big Fan of your work HOMY^^
