    Over the past few days I've seen about 3 very big and very awesome unreleased maps on Blackout. They all used the under the map and out of the map sections, nothing on the original blackout.
    So I was wondering what the community thought about the subject.

    Also, post number 777, I just won the lotto!

    I havent seriously tried anything on Blackout yet, but I'll add that to my idea list.
    I've got like five other ideas for maps right now. Only one, that I've actually started to make.

    Blackout is good, and seperates the men from the boys because of the amount of tedious saving and quitting involved to make a decent map off the edge.
    what i find even funnier is how everyone was saying that ghost town was going to be the map to forge on, but i have yet to see something truly spectacular, there have been good attempts, and notable mentions such as cabbage patch and 10 paces and turn, but nothing that made me believe that ghost town was as amazing as was first implied.[/offtopicness]

    I never could never even try the Blackout map because I don't have that map pack so , I wish I could try it, it would be fun I guess and I like the light dim efects I've seen from videod- these must be good maps.

    Its hard work to forge there, but its a really good map to use imo. I wish more people were trying it.

    I think, to be honest, any map has the capability to be epic so long as the forger has enough originality (or spontaneous fluke when it comes to ideas).

    But Blackout's extensive "off-map" space does seem to make it ideal for creating whole new maps, rather than conversions.

    I only recall people saying that Ghost Town would suck because of the uneven terrain?

    I personally always found that floating maps always lack something. Although Ive never been able to say what exactly. Maybe I've just been playing the wrong ones, but I tend to lose interest really quickly.
