    Map Title: Deathfest
    Deathfest, coming to a video game console near you!

    Download Map
    Download Gametype

    Description: The inspiration for my map was to create some sort of wrestling arena, and after about an hour, Deathfest was becoming a reality. In Deathfest, the player has to rack up as many kills as possible within one minute. The players have no sheilds and magnum starts.(If you utilize the magnum, a kilimanjaro is possible) The map geometry is basicaly a plus-sign made out of fence boxes. In the center is laden with two plazma grenades and four assault rifles.

    Now for pics, although there's only two.

    For a cramped map I think it's far too cramped. And why not add scenery outside to make it look nicer.

    looks extremely small, you could make it at least twice as big and still have the gameplay i think you were going for.

    As for spawn killing, this is not a competative map. I've played with my friends and all the people I've showed it to think that it is fun. And as for your "Ultra super-cramped" hypothesis, it is meant to be that way. So next time you critisize someone's map, play it first.

    spawn killing is not nice and the astheatics could be better, just make the arena bigger and make some light effects or anything else, look at some boxing and try making it nice.

    This is a WAY too simple for me. This could have been made with about eight objects. Maps that are small little boxes have been done thousands of times, and better than this. I've seen maps that actually have two working doors that open up at the beginning of the match and release the contestants, and working bungie cords lining the walls to bounce off of like in a wrestling match. There's really not much done here. Most forgers could make this map in about two minutes.

    iv played a lot of maps like this such as the blue room and this type of game is way too anoying. i also do not belive it took an hour to make (maybe to post it) i give like 5 mins of fun then everyone gets bored cause everyone dies too much. i think you should put obsticels in the map to make it harder to spawn kill. also put teleporters behind the spawn area so poeple cant assinate new spawners. i think you could do a lot more work on this map and here at forge hub you really should be posting things that are unique and show talent and effert. next time you make a map test it with poeple from forge hub so you get they're apinion on your map. hope this helps

    Might as well play in the blue room, also you should add some aesthetics to make it looks nicer.

    Thanks for all the good feedback, I'm actually learning good stuff here. I'll make a V3 with updates like aesthetics and teleporter enterances.

    spawn killing must be a real issue here. you should make rounds or something, so spawnkilling wont happen.

    You could also just put shield doors down right in front of the spawns to lessen or eliminate spawn killing....

    Looks like it could be a fun map...
    Map: 3.5/5

    hm...
    I dont see anything that would lead me to believe that this resembles a wrestling ring or wrestling arena. I've played this style of map and gametype before and you really need to be in the right mood.
    Not much creativity or originality seems to surround this map.

    it does look like it would be fun, but there might be a problem with spawn killing.
