    Wangle

    Recommended Number of Players:
    6-12
    Recommended Gametypes: Team Slayer, King of the Hill, Oddball, Neutral Assault

    Wangle's looks can be quite deceiving. At first glance, the map seems to be empty minus the "base" areas and the back portion. However, look after a while and a entire middle structure spawns, adding a new dimension to the map. A map built for fast paced action with lots of BR and Carbine fire, Wangle is my first true Forged map.

    Yes, I know this map is nowhere near the quality of most, if not all, maps on this site. However, I figured you guys and girls could give me some pointers to improve my forging. Thanks!!

    I saw that you don't know how to interlock, but that doesn't matter, you can still make a good map. I suggest that you still check out Forging 101 to learn. Now, the map looks relatively empty and I can't see what types of weapons you have on it. For Aesthetics People recommend that you turn boxes and bridges upside-down. I would add more objects and maybe a second layer. i believe that this could be a very good map, it has great ideas and if you use interlocking etc. and add more things it could be very good. YAY 1st post!!!!1!!

    I absolutely agree with madz. It looks like your serious about forging so I strongly suggest you visit forging 101. That was where I first learned how to interlock and geomerge. You got true potential you just haven't learned how to use it yet. Keep up the good forging!!!

    I'd just like to say good first post and a nice map. To get a better feel of the map I recommend putting in a weapon list. Also i think that this map could support vehicles quite nicely-lots of open areas. Also try putting in more levels and ways up on to the upper roadways.
    Good Forging in the future!!

    the map is good for what you know. like everyone said visit forging 101 it does a very good job explaining how to do things. if you ever need any help or need someone to explain interlocking or geomerging first hand. PM me on forge-hub. and we can get together and i can show you what i know. check out my maps too. you might get some questions you want to ask me from their.

    Well for someone who doesnt know how to interlock, it looks like you built a decent map. Just looking at the screenshots, you can see how the gaemplay would fall on this map, and it looks like GP would be great, just learn how to interlock and geomerge and youll go plces.

    you probably want to avoid just having two obvious levels. Having all the items on the ground floor can be alright but it usually looks a bit bland-also adds to that "too open" concept

    Weapon List:
    8 Battle Rifles
    8 Carbines
    4 SMG's
    2 Plasma Pistols
    1 Gravity Hammer
    1 Needler
    4 Frag Grenades

    Also, I had never thought about vehicles. To be honest, I don't think any would fit minus a Mongoose or two. There are no anti-vehicle weapons on the map, so wouldn't say, a Ghost become a dominant force on this map?

    PS, thanks for the nice replies. I was kind of intimidated by all the amazing maps. I'll be sure to check out Forging 101 to learn all the advanced forging techniques in time for my next project: A Sandbox 3 leveled CTF-designed map.
