    Up and Over
    Originated and Edited by: Cahelms
    Map: Foundry w/ Racetracks variant
    Difficulty: Intermediate
    DOWNLOAD LINK: Click Here

    Welcome to the Up and Over race/obstacle track. The U&O track
    utilizes ramps, dangerous jumps, obstacles, and an overall "race".
    The map is perfect for 1-4 players on a Saturday afternoon with a
    couple of friends. This is my first obstacle/race track and I hope you
    download and enjoy this as much as I enjoyed creating it. Thanks,
    and here are the pictures:

    No you. It's the guys first on forgehub, you don't have to rip on him. Instead of saying his map is crap, how about helping him by telling him how to improve. The map isn't played with oddball either if you read what he says, it's played with racing variants. The map looks fine, there's a couple of walls that could be straightened here and there but I think it works well for a race track. Most other ones don't have jumps and obstacles. I recommend that you merge some walls together if you have a V2 in mind, as it will usually lead up to better gameplay when a map is neater.

    not even trying would NOT look like this. The guy tried, geez. And like Satan, I recommend you see forge 101 for helpful tips and tricks but other than that, a fairly solid map, would be better with merging though I think.

    Well, the layout is there, but I can tell from the pictures it would be bumpy. Interlocking not only makes the map smoother, but improves aesthetics. I don't mind the look of this, it reminds me of one of the original racce maps, but nowadays, we have higher standards of race maps. They have to be smooth to race.

    And to skillkill119, why would you think it's Oddball? Are you retarded? In the picture with the symbol, it has a diamond, not a skull. And so what if people can get out of the map? They don't win. So put some thought into your next post, because I'm reporting this one for spam.

    lol ha ha. but don't be so mean to him, It's his first map. and yes it's true you may want to go to forging 101 to learn some tips and also come back and make a v2 w/ some updates.

    Thanks everyone for the responses. I did not realize it wasn't up to the standards of the racing maps today, but I'll continue to improve as I've already downloaded a ton of racing maps to get the feel of it. Anyway, continue to give constructive criticism as anything will help.

    So... This is basically a mongoose obstacle course, because it doesnt look like you can really race on this. Its very poorly forged and i think that some more care could have gone into it. I will admit that it looks like a good idea, along with a little bit of a challenge, but forging needs work.

    Dont worry about what other people have to say.
    Its your creativity at work, not theirs.
    The map looks good honostly, only thing you need improving on is interlocking.
    Race maps with interlocking = fun.
    Keep forging mate, and cheers on the map.
