    This map brings back a lot of memories from this clan I used to be in that had a map with the same idea; a huge Coliseum & balconies above the main area. Although, it was an even more complex gametype that I still have (I won't go into details). The weapons on this map that I've seen give it an MLG feel to the game (Maulers, Rockets, Snipers, etc.) The docks looked very confusing. How the heck do you get to them, 'cause I didn't see it in the pictures. All in all, I have a good feeling about this map... 4/5 (Only because nothing's perfect.)!

    I had another picture of the docks that actually make sense but I dont know where that went. There is a split in the coliseum that leads to the docks, as seen in the picture with the sun

    This map is diffrent though based off ideas used a lot before. It is good. I like the dock the best.
    4/5: Whats up with the slit walls.

    im thinking for effect...
    the map looks good but the weapons may need to be re thought outed,
    the sniper right beside the sword and the mauler all in one map? not a good idea for a map of this size if you ask me.

    The map is really simple, but it looks like it has really good gameplay. The dock looks really cool to me and is really original. I also think that there are too many power weapons right next to each other and might affect gameplay.

    Overall-4/5

    The Sword will be switched with rockets and the rockets will be deleted in the next version. The sniper is on the dock to balance teams.
    The slits are useful for the sniper variant....As well as effect.
    Unfortunately lots of the floors were shaken up by sandbox's "save earthquake" (messy floors) So I will clean that up in the next version as well.
    Once I learn the unlimited budget glitch I will expand on the dock area.

    simple idea.
    but i think the gameplay is well on your map.
    maybe it would look a little bit better if you would interlock your objects.
    good map overall

    Looks like a very good map with lots of game outcomes, but my only problem is the areas you placed the weapons. The sword right next to the shotgun and sniper I mean. But besides that, nice map. 4/5
