    Snipers are perhaps one of the most feared soldiers on any terrain. What happens if you bring these sharp shooters into one arena?

    well here you have it, the one showdown for all you snipers! Sniper Plaza is perfectly symmetrical so that one side will not over power the other. To allow these four bases to flow smoothly, there is a cross way where high traffic is imminent, but for one who reaches the center just might have the advantage for a cloak will be waiting for them. (just becareful of random crossfire.....it tends to get a little nasty)

    but for all you smart snipers out there, you know that staying back and watching the field is the best way to rack up some points, so with that in mind there are four soaring towers that will keep you safe for the moment

    unfortunately there are not any weapons on this map, since it is primarly meant for snipers only, and there are gametypes that you are more than welcome to make for this layout.

    please check it out and send me some feed back on your opinions

    I think this map looks better with the overviews than with the close ups. This looks like an awsome map. But I think you could probably put up a couple more screen shots. Like, if there are actual bases, like Red base and Blue base. 5/5. For a sniper map.

    I'm really loving the symmetry in this map. It looks smooth for the most part, and the layout looks great. I'd like it (and others i bet too) if you made this compatible for other gametypes besides snipers, because I can so see this working with 4-way Capture the flag and Assault. Again the symmetry is perfect for those gametypes so maybe if you could update it with them, that would be awesome. Good job though, I love snipers so I'll definitely give this a download.

    I have never really liked sniper games ever. However, when looking at your map you have some nice layout qualities. For one there's cover, thank you. I have seen too many "sniper maps" where its just a flat platform and they say "go." And, your map is shaped around some very important and long lanes. And its not like your placed down a bunch boxes symmetrically with gaps that have gazzilion "lanes." I can see the cross fire you speak of.

    So anyways well done. Actually it looks like you wouldn't have to restrict this to just sniper games.

    thank for the insights so far, i will be more than willing to start making other gametypes immediately and post them up as soon as I can.

    please feel free to check out some other samples on my fileshare: RAYZOR 1987, if you would like to see more let me know

    This is actually very well forged. The layout looks good, and the sightlines are decent for a sniping map. The only real issue I can find by looking at the screenshots is that you used walls as floors. If you have any budget or items left, you might want to go back and remake those paths with something else, as walls used like that tend to develop bumps in custom games. You might want to consider making this into a multiteam CTF map, as well, because this is one of the few maps I've seen that might actually support that. 4.8/5.

    I am a little confused about the layout of the map...
    in the first picture it looks like the two towers look over the map and are sort of adjacent to one another but in the second picture they seem to be diagonally across from one another...

    but anyway this map looks well made and well thought out, 4.75/5
