    I spent a good amount of time making this; . It is a symmetrical base spawn MLG map. It is best played on MLG Flag V6.

    Overview:
    There's two symmetrical bases facing each other in the crypt. These bases are entirely symmetrical on the exception of the color changes. The map is perfectly spaced and even throughout the whole map. The sides have two main spots (purple and S1-3), these two areas are assymetrical but they both take the same amount of time to reach certain spots such as sniper spawn. This map doesn't only look cool, but its gameplay is amazing. Not only is there tons of cover ( perfect amount of cover for a MLG map, but theres also MLG shortcuts that save much time for those pro jumpers, if u can find them and master them, the game is set :). That's enough explanation for now, find all the other cool features by checking it out!!!

    I hope you enjoy!

    Weapons and Equipment:

    x5 battle rifle - Various places on floor of map
    x1 Sniper rifle - MLG spawned timed, located in center.
    x2 Maulers - located in both assymetrical sides ( top purple and s3)

    If any of you do download this i would appreciate any feedback (good or bad no matter how harsh it may be).



    if possible i would like your advice on spawns,weapon placement crooked or unnecessary objects, etc..

    THANKS for stopping by :)









    Version 3.1 supports the two maulers and sniper spawned on double wall.
    Version 3.3 supports custom powr up replacing 1 of the maulers and sniper drop spawn and edited br spawns (credit to Canadiens for the idea)

    This is a screenshot of V3.3 (Mauler to custom powerup)

    Gameplay:

    Once again: Plays MLG CTF as its main gametype.

    This is a very good map, give the MLG feeling. I'm not a MLG fan, but the layout it very good, and the interlocking looks very legit.

    9/10

    should be called MLG awesome! One of the first good original mlg maps i've seen on sandbox. The crypt is pretty big though, how does it play? It seems like you could have five player mlg games on this map. Very smooth clean forge, i look forward to playing this. 5/5

    Very cool looking map. I don't know if its MLG by the structures because I think MLG maps go by a criteria that you are able to walk to every section of the map. Other than that (and I don't think thats true or not, I'm not exactly sure >.<) this looks like a great map for CTF. Will consider the DL for sure (gotta get ridda my que'd lol). Great job! 4/5

    No its not. That is not true. You do have a very good MLG map. Personally i have rated so many sandbox MLG maps that I just got sick of it and stopped for a week. Congratulations, your maps structural complexity and smooth architecture has convinced me to start back up again. Your map is quite well laid out. It may be boarding too complex for MLG but I think its still in bounds. Your multiple routes and good lines of sight have really caught my eye. As for weapon placement it is a bit bland for me. I know its MLG but a carbine would not be to much to ask for, would it. Diversify a little most of the time people will be using BR 90% of the time. I personally like it closer to about 75% of the time to keep me entertained with some mauler, snipe or carbine even rockets shooting every once and a while. Since your snipe is already floating I must ask if you drop spawned it to keep the timer accurate or no. Anyways you got my download again great work.

    EDIT: You may also want to remove one of the maulers and put something that promotes map control a little more such as a camo, OS, or custom. I don't want anyone telling me overshieds aren't allowed in MLG either, they are look it up.

    Wow this looks a lot better than the other version. I don't know what it is because you had the mods delete the other version. The looks of it makes the big things stand out so much more and even the little things stand out. The way you can jump up things is creative, and the interlocking is smooth. There is plenty of cover and the bases and lighting are great. The best parts of this map are the big columns and the center strip. Congratulations. You truly made a good map into a great map. Hopefully my message to you was helpful in tweaking up the loose ends, but if not you did great by yourself :). I agree with Canadians I do recommend putting in an overshield in somewhere reachable, but definitely not a camo. Good luck on future maps.

    Ahh... I'm glad to see you made some improvements. I'm glad that you took so much of my advice. I was only able to get one match in but I can already tell the addition of the custom power up really focuses atention on map control. Important items in the middle also tend to draw away any attempts at camping an enamy base. Also now the dual mauler possability is taken away which in my opinion would work way too much like a shotgun in your map. I also did note the snipers drop spawn since I could actually keep track of its spawn time. This is a nice adition to any serious MLG players. Now I can honestly say I don't have much else to put in for improvements and I always like to see forgers willing to alter and tweak their maps and improve upon themselves. I look forward to more maps from you in the future.

    Love how it looks, very MLG like. I would almost call this matchmaking quality. And i really love the structure in the 7th and 9th screenshot.

    Good map ideas!

    You have good map Ideas. I took a look at the map and there are a few rough spots on the 3.3 version. First was the floor that you used at the top of one of the sides needs a little work. Second in the bases I like the step up in the back of the bases from the bottom to the top, but you hit your head on the top of the, look like a T wall. Last their was one of the tube pieces at one of the bases that stick into the box to much all the rest are much higher. Other than those few thing the map has great Ideas.

    thanks for your comment, im not denying that the one floor on that one side is a littel bumpy and seems as if it needs cleaning up , but i made that floor by placing it ontop of double boxes, so all of em are the same level, so i don't understand what creates the miner bumps? ill look into it more sometime, and the jump up on the base; hitting yur head thing, thats pretty true, ill fix that in later version, thanks :), and on the tunnel thing, on some sides of the base your supposed to be allowed to jump up on the tunnel, and other sides you cant. Thanks for your comment though


    Rate, comment, judge, add suggestions, have fun :)

    awesome map!!!

    this is by far one of the best aesthetic MLG maps ive seen. People are really making impressive maps now and days in sandbox and this is definetely one of them! I really like the well thought out jumps in some areas and i agree with a previous post that the drop sniper addition really helps with timing the map's sniper spawn. Really good job! Definetely a download on V3.3

    very nice!

    i checked out the map with a couple of my friends and it played very well. I definetely enjoyed playing on the map. The only thing i could think of for improvement suggestions would be the floor on the top of one of the sides is a little bumpy but looking closer it seems as if its a forge flaw on bungies side because the walls look like their exactly on the same level and yet its a little bumpy? who knows lol. Anyways, great job!!

    9/10

    This map by MLG standards is garbo. There is no map symmetry. the power weapon spot is horrible. Sorry to be so crude im just telling ya what i think. Don't want to come off mean but im just stating my opinion
