    Aperture
    Created by: Matty

    Gametypes Supported: All Gametypes
    Recommended Gameytypes: 1 Flag, Neutral Bomb, 3 Ball, Team Snipers
    Recommended Players: 4-14


    Aperture is easily Matty's finest forge to date. He has used the whole of Foundry magnificently in a symmetrical map suited for all gametypes under the sun. A stunning design can only be complemented by Matty's signature flare, using some never before seen structures and techniques such as his sniper towers and the ghost racks beneath. Great balance and a wide array of weaponry keep matches exciting and fresh while still maintaining a high level of competitiveness.

    A map that uses all of Foundry, supports all gametypes, and produces such fantastic gameplay is truly a gem. Aperture shines in both symmetrical games as well as one sided games making good use of Forge's symmetry options. With matches of epic proportions that continually come right down to the wire, Aperture should be a mainstay on every forger's hard drive.

    So glad this got featured. I loved playing it before. Nice Aesthetics and amazingly fun gameplay. I love how you incoorperated the mancannons to get into the map too.

    I'm very glad this got featured. For a great gameplay focused map, this one has great aesthetics as well. I really am sad that this will be Matty's last map. Good way to commemorate it though.

    My first impression was that the map was a bit bland, but after looking at the original thread, I see many nice aesthetic and gameplay features that add to the maps charm. Quite impressive. I must remember to check out some of Matty's other maps...

    Eh, I never liked the gameplay on this map. Sure, it's amazing looking, but I never thought it was that fun.

    This map is very good. Excellent gameplay and wonderful aethetic features. This was the first map I had seen use the geomerged grav lifts, and the ghosts suspended by the windows is a original idea. Only problem I could see is that the ghosts were a bit overpowering. Maybe throw in a couple more plasmas or some spike grenades. A fun overall map. 9/10

    The man-cannons are so fun to go off of in slayer, I must say this is a very well deserved feature Matty. Great aesthetics and the ghost spawns are very creative.

    Yes, it looks a little bland until you look at the odd structures and the map layout. The geomerging and interlocking look just like it should. And slow down with the features lol. But when you choose them, you choose the right ones. Congrats Matty.

    Great job on the feature. I knew after I played it with a couple of buddies that it would eventually get featured. The gameplay was smooth and very entertaining.
