    DESOLATION*<<<LINK
    By sourdauer

    Before i start, let me say that this is my FIRST post on Forgehub.com. ive been n00bing around the forrums for the past half year and i figured it was finally time to post a map :D. Also; this map was made soley by me with no help whatsoever. If you want to help me test my next map, just send me a friend request, because its really hard to test a map by yourself, lol.


    THE MAP: this map is a conpetitive map that is equally good for team games as it is for ffa. my inspiration for this map was a burning hatred for Isolation, and a loving compassion for valhalla. the map takes parts from both maps, and smooshes them toogether to form a magical **** of gameplay and asthetics.

    ASTHETICS: for any map, i think lighting is a big part about how the map feels and the impression it leaves on the gamer. the lighting, combined with the tall structures really gives you a larger-than-life feeling...which feels good.


    GAMEPLAY: the map has both cramped quarters and open areas which lend to a really unique gameplay. this is one of those maps where a player can either use the battle rifle or the assault rifle to be successfull. the map also supports almost everygametype out there so take your pick.

    Powerweapons include:
    Fuel rod cannon (in place of rocket launcher)
    Shotgun
    Shield Drain (play it and you'll know why)


    THE NAME: to name this map i used my massive brain to look up a synonym for isolation on dictionary.com. :D

    so without furthur adoo, here are the pics. :D

    I like how the man-cannon is merged with the stairs, pretty cool effect. It looks like this map might have taken a lot of time to make, nice work. Leave the reviews to the commenters, makes you look less like a douche.

    Enev though you said this is your first post I can see slot of forging skill on you young one. Jk, but in all seriousness this map looks pretty legit and vey nice. I especially like your wall and how you used the top of r double boxes and not only the bottoms. 8/10 from me because I haven't tried it yet on account of the time

    it looks a bit messy at some parts.the astetics are ok. The center stands out in the map, which is a good thing. I'll download and see what i think. From what i see on the pics its a 3.5/5 a solid B+

    This map looks very good for a beginner map. Some parts look sloppy, but this map is better than hundreds of noob maps on this site. I think some of the map could be smoothed out and that would help with the maps looks. Also using fuel rod cannons in maps is usally a bad thing, they are just two powerfull in the right hands and have a very deep clip for a rocket launcher type weapon.
