    Map Description
    *After the earthquake, advisors refit the station terminal for simulations. 2-8 players*

    Richter (named after the "Richter" scale) is a small asymmetric map and as the story goes,
    it was rebuilt on a terminal unfit for supply warehousing . . . .

    Asymmetrical, well balanced maps are tough to make but I tried my best to be unbiased with weapon
    placement/selection. Low spawn times and high clips won't nuisance the power weapons or the sandbox
    experience. Everything flows well.
    The terrain itself is very (aftermathish?) Some platforms are crooked and appear to be ‘hanging’ by
    their last rebar; some are sinking into the ground. Aesthetically lots of nice technique thanks to
    Forging 101. Hope you enjoy!

    Nice, looks very original. Some of those bridges don't look possible to walk on but lets see me proved wrong. =)

    Holy crap this is awesome! I have not seen a wrecked theme map look so good! This is a must download as soon as I get the room. In the meantime, 5/5 and good rep for you.

    Very nice map.
    The interlocking/geomerging are top notch, very professional work.
    The crooked platforms are as unique as they are badass. It looks like you put extreme effort and work into this map, and it looks just amazing. Excellent job.
    I seriously have to check this one out.

    Nice man, this looks great. Definitely the most original map I have seen in a while. I love all the crazy geomerging and those structures look awesome. I especially love the building in this first pic. Good interlocking as well, keep up the good work.

    this has to be some of the best work ive seen in forge. got some very impressive geomerging work right here... I dont think ive actually ever seen about 99% of what you did. I am loving the weapons selection as well. Shotgun FTW. The name is perfect for it btw.

    Ill download it based off the asthetics, and test it out for gameplay.

    I got a headache looking at your map ( in a good way ). The thing thats cool, is that its on an angle, and it is in the open unlike Distoriation. Great map 4/5

    head pain is ok.

    this is definitely shades of distortion, zeus (that map is awesome). everybody I've played with has mentioned it. just not quite as confusing.

    Hrm, seems the weapons are fair. The layout is really neat. Talk about some crazy angles. Looks like it'll be fun for some FFA games. I'll be sure to try it out and get back to you.

    This may be a little old of a post but I've been looking for this map. I was with you when we did all the testing and I loved it. This is one of the few maps that I tested that was actually good!

    Your aesthetics are amazing, and from the test, the map played amazingly well. Being able to walk on all the jagged and crooked surfaces is just plain awesome. I think that map deserves waay more attention and you guys seriously look into this. Downloading the final version.

    This map is truely unique and sets itself aside from any other map I have ever seen. The diversity of angles will probably make gameplay, in particular grenades, very interesting. Because of the great merging and geomerging as well as the overall unique design, I give this map a 5/5. I cannot find anything for you to improve upon.
