    Dude Lights this map really is a successor to heatwave in that it also rocks. I loved this map from its first incarnation and had been anticipating it ever since the heads up from Iv0rY on the mario pipes.
    This map is soo much fun, the careful design and quality of forging are very apparent and it really changes the dynamic of Avalanche to make it its own.
    Glad this map was featured in v4 as your attention to detail and constant adaptations really brought Coldfront along. I loved v1, but love v4 even more.

    Sorry I didn't comment as much as I should have on the original threads, but the versions just kept coming so thick and fast. This map got better and and better and thats why it, and you, rock dude. Congrats!

    You seem to have a knack for forging on non-foundry maps. When are you coming back to good old fashioned foundry, eh? I just downloaded the map now, and I hope we can get some games on it in the next few days.

    I love that particular teleporter cave/cliff area of the map, and have been looking for a good one-sided map using it as a defensive base - so yeah, this pretty much rocks. The defensive sniper tower is just awesome (well, all of them for that matter). The mario pipes are pretty creative and the man cannon chute into the base is really, really cool. Well done, sir.

    People keep saying this, but suggesting nothing.
    It may be true that alot of featured maps are from respected members, but did you ever think that they are respected members because they're good at forging? This map is a great demonstration of forging for gameplay and trying to achieve a new experience on an existing map. This thing has been through 4 versions and, so I understand, a good deal of playtesting. If you try a few games on it you should see that its well designed and fun, which is an achievement on avalanche, an achievement that has been recognized here.

    Also, if you look through the Featured maps section then I think you'll find a great deal of maps from non staff members, the section does well to expose lesser known maps whilst publicising those maps from more well known members, they are all featured for a reason.

    Maybe because they become staff because they got featured, not the other way around. Theres been a lot of people that have been promoted because theyve gotten 2 maps featured. Looking back at the threads, two maps made by a regular member would seem like two maps made by a staff member. An example would be Mallet and Matty, both were not staff when they got their maps featured but now are. I think maybe Lights too

    have you even played the map? i know you havent because you would definitely be saying good things about it. i know it doesnt look like a great map, but you cant judge anything unless you play it man. and i would like to see you make a better map.

    Thanks a ton guys, I really appreciate all the kind words, I'm glad yall like it!

    Coldfront is only set up for One Bomb and One Flag (due to the item limit). You should change games to BR starts, and can play either 3 or 4 minute rounds.

    Foundry is my first love... im just sowing some wild oats right now with some other mistresses, but I shall return. Got one more fling on Avalanche then I'll be back.

    This map looks really good i havn't seen many Avalanche maps before. I like the Mrio Box concept but what is that big thing in the first picture?
