    I have recently played this map and I found the gameplay to be lacking and unimpressive. Yes it looks very nice and has omg nice interlokzors 5/5, but the gameplay is poor in my opinion.

    I understand that the map is made to be small, but it has way to much going on in the middle. The middle of the map did not allow for any proprer Br fights unless you were on top which I thought was way too much of a power position. I think that single boxes on top ot the tower would suffice in cutting down on that. I easily won because of that spot and my steady br. Hardly any kills came on foot on the lower levels, which can break up the monotony of standard foundry maps, but made this boring gameplay wise. There needs to be more appeal to go on foot instead of jumnnping around like a monkey which led to many easy escapes.

    Camo seemed way to overpowered, becuase I could get several kills before I used it up. The weapon placement was pretty good though. I think the main downfall in gameplay is that the map is overly complex for such a small playspace.

    The spawns were also pretty bad. I spawned and killed a man then a second later anopther opponent spawned in that exact same location. I understand that it is a small map, but there are spawning issues. A lot of that stems form the towers in the middle which rape if your good with a Br. I looked through it on forge and you seem to have the habit of placing spawns like you would a wall. It has to be nice and neat and orderly. That is novice, spawn placement is not something that is meant to look neat and orderly. They are to provide safety in the first few seconds. A spawn marker can be placed 360 degrees, please do not fall in the habit of placing them at 90 or 45 degree angles according to map geometry.

    Overall it's really nice looking, but I didn't enjoy playing it that much other than raping people. :(

    Rusty, thanks for your honesty. personally, most of the battles ive found to take place on the low ground. i cant really say it'll always be the same. different people will take different roads when playing.

    anyways, thanks for checking it out, and taking the time to review it.

    No problem, you guys have potential, just trying to wrangle it out of you guys. Sometimes a hard to swallow pill is just what the doctor ordered. I know when I first started maps I was eager and excoted to hear what people thought of it. Sometimes it wasn't what I wanted to hear but I took it in stride to make better maps.

    If nothing else take this to heart. Gameplay first then aesthetics. I would hate for a forger of your caliber to fall into the forgehub bandwagon of "nEEdz moar interlockz!" I think it is baout time that people start to recognize that pictures do not tell the whole story and that it is important to play it not to be impressed by looks but how much fun you have.
