    Description:

    The Dojo v2 is an asymmetric FFA designed map. It's strongly influenced by Guardian and has a very similar design to Guardian. Why Guardian? It's arguably the best map on Halo 3 with its lines of sight, the reliable cover, and just its unique design. I did my best to improve the "Guardian feel" while still keeping it unique.

    I didnt see V1 but this map looks very well forged and gameplay looks great. The walkways kinda remind me of Blackout, in fact to me the map seems like a cross of Guardian and Blackout. Ive been meaning to find a good looking FFA map that plays well and i think i found it. Great job on the map.

    Wow, what a great looking map. The aesthetics are beautiful and it looks like it plays similarly to Guardian and Lockout. The only issue I strongly feel about is the lack of cheater/anti-fall rails that this map lacks in certain places. I am working on a similar map, and the biggest complaint I get from playtesters is that I need to "fix" a spot where they can fall off without looking. Notice how it is impossible to walk off off Lockout and Guardian, some of the greatest maps ever. Sure, you can be knocked off or jump off, but you will never inadvertently walk off. If you fix this, it truly deserves to be in Matchmaking rather than much of the garbage found there. Good job sir.

    I love Guardian styles map, and your seems to be very well forged.
    I would prefer the lights to be closer to their base, to make them "stronger", but great anyway.

    Only problems I can see are with the weapon list.
    Generally I think a map should have more frags then plasma, just to avoid overpowering, but whatever I've added this to my queue so tomorrow I'll test it out and get back to you. Looks like a good map though :)

    You know that's a really good point. Maybe I can add more rails, but it's going to be hard with the object limit. But who knows maybe I can fix things up.

    P.S Thank you all for the comments and feedback

    i got a game on it today ,and it played out great,except for my fusion coil jump screwed up the gameplay,but i bet if u could fix it u would but due to the limit of items u were left wiith out a roof over specific parts ,but my favorite part about playing this map was the great jumps to get around faster were very nice very nicely done .

    Yeah I might try and move things around and if I can do it, I'm putting a roof up. Not saying that you're going to see a v3 (though it might happen, just be on the lookout) but I want to fix all that I can.

    Appearance- 1.8-Master Piece
    game play- 1.4-Exciting
    Originality- 0.3-Resource
    presentation- 0.3-Boring

    Over all= 4/5

    I am going to have to say I love the way your map looks and its style but the map felt a little to small and confusing for some though it did have the same build as guardian it did not play anything like it not saying that your map was supposed to. I am just saying that the sword become a BLEEP'S weapon and everyone et least died 3 times every game from falling of the map. :( Don't get me wrong the map is fun It just needs to put on some weight if you know what I mean.
    Over all nice map. :)
