I present to you ... Relativity Relativity is a pure Slayer/TeamSlayer map. It carries the fight to lots of different vertical levels and combines close-quarters-battle with long-range-battle. The movement on this map is very smooth since I included 2 mancannons which will lead you to important spots on the map. The spectrum of the weapons I chose is quite thight. There are BRs, SMGs, Spikers, Maulers, Sniper, RocketLauncher, Sword, Shotgun. All of these are well placed to ensure that every player can get his desired weapon in a very short time. Yet its really hard to get the Sniper or the Rocketlauncher. The layout of the map features multiple battlegrounds. You have a Floor area in which most of the close quarters battle will take place. But there are also elevated platforms which allow you to trade cover for firepower. A gangway on the highest level which leads around the whole upper level of foundry is your goal to reach. Once climbed you will have an assortment of superior firepower (BRs, Rocketlauncher, Powerdrain) and a better position to shoot from.

Re: Relativity - A multilevel Slayer map I like the multi-tiered U-shape staircase. The playing area looks to be pretty well used by the multi-levels. What exactly does the double mancanon thing do though? It looks as if it's set to shoot you straight forward rather than up.
Re: Relativity - A multilevel Slayer map Thanks for your feedback! The mancannon does indeed propel you up, the additional mancannon at the top adjusts the angle and adds a lot of momentum to your movement. (this makes it harder for opponents to shoot you in mid-air) I recommend you to download it and try it, it will ALWAYS lead you directly to the desired spot (the staircase).
Re: Relativity - A multilevel Slayer map Yah, I would download it if I had space, but I think I'm going to have to pass. There are so many good maps, and I can only have 100.
Re: Relativity - A multilevel Slayer map Too bad, its really worth it! Maybe you will have some free space anytime soon
Re: Relativity - A multilevel Slayer map My recomendation would be to post more screenshots embedded in the first post. It makes the post more informative at an easier glance and will generate more interest. just a suggestion.
Re: Relativity - A multilevel Slayer map This is a very well put together map. I like the walls sideways, on the walls. They look very nice. And the overall feeling of it just is well put together. Two hints for you, though. 1. Get action shots 2. If you're going to put your pictures on photobucked, why not embed?
Re: Relativity - A multilevel Slayer map Now if you could make people stick to sideways stairs then it would truly be like relativity, otherwise it looks fairly interesting
Re: Relativity - A multilevel Slayer map Oops, completely forgot that I could embed the pics here... lawl. I usually visit the B.net forums so I didnt think of it. I will definetly take more shots (also action shots) and embed them here! Thank you for your suggestions! Oh and yea the painting inspired me to name the map, at first I just wanted to make a replica of the painting itself but then I realised it would be too hard so I decided to build a multilevel map... and BAM that was the birth of Relativity.
Re: Relativity - A multilevel Slayer map Our inspiration hits us from all sides, like this map. And people who do know how to embed still don't. Arrogant people annoy me. But usually our ideas fail, but we tweak the idea a little, and a little more, and a lot more, then it's a new map.
Re: Relativity - A multilevel Slayer map Hey I added a *cough* FEW *cough* pics to my description, I hope that you can imagine it better now.
Re: Relativity - A multilevel Slayer map I'm liking the new screens, my queue is cleared up so i'm giving it a DL
