    Sands of Time Arena

    The Sands of Time Arena is a basic arena located in the skybox. It has some extra features such as a balcony, sniper lookout, and two rooms where the "gladiators are stored". I made it to be used with the SAVAGE gametype, a game where you have only snipers and score only by getting headshots. However this can be used obviously for whatever you want, but I'll include the gametype download as well.

    The arena includes a balcony.

    The sniper lookout. it is reached by going through the red shield door and following the tunnel. Spectators can stand on the ledge along the arena. The ground seems bumpy also but it's hardly noticeable during gameplay.

    The balcony, follow the left tunnel to get to the sniper lookout.

    Inside the red base. It leads to the balcony/ sniper lookout

    The sniper lookout. You can exit by dropping down into the blue base.

    This is the first map I've put on Forgehub, I know it's not perfect. If anyone has any suggestions, please tell me. I can't add a single item more though because it says "you have too many items on this map." So that ruled out a lot of what I wanted to add. Another problem is that some people spawn on the main ground when the game first starts, regardless of how many spawns I put inside the arena. I simply put a teleporter down there to fix it for now.

    Download Sands of Time Arena
    Download SAVAGE Gametype

    -If you did't read above SAVAGE is a gametype where you score only with headshots and use snipers. It is not needed for this map.

    I can spot quite a few bumps throughout the map, but apart from that it looks nice. For the most part the execution looks great, I can honestly see my self using this map in multiple scenarios. Nice job.

    Well made arena map. The sniper booth is a great idea, it looks very deadly. From what I see, it looks like players can just exit and re-enter their base. I would suggest that you make a grav lift that pushes them out of their base so that players cannot camp bases and cannot run away.
    But the rest looks nice, ill try it.

    good map overall.
    but i think you culd make some spot i little bit better.
    for example the interlocking.
    and in the middle for example a wall or something.
    i think its better that you dont get spawn killed so easy.

    Yes I said we spawned at the bottom. You should read my description before you post useless information in broken English.

    Anyways thanks for all the suggestions guys, I will put up barricades on the floor of the arena to prevent spawn killing.

    thanks

    Thank you, I'll tell you right now it's not as smooth as it looks, but it doesn't mess up gameplay on the arena floor much if any. It's more of just a fun/ practice map not so much competition. But thanks a lot for your feedback.

    Well uh, thanks, hope you like it.
