• I would consider moving the sender node to strut room, removing the jump pad in bottom mid, and moving the sniper to that position. The former gives players too quick an escape route after grabbing the power weapon. I doubt it would help too much, but the setup i mentioned would be a little better, IMO. The same can be said about the jump pad; you don't want to offer players an immediate advantage after they retrieve a power weapon.

• I would attempt to incorporate some better connections onto the reciever platform. Another plus to repositioning the sender to strut room is that it puts immediate LoS between it and the reciever node. With that, you already have a makeshift connection. Nevertheless, I would still consider turning the strut jump into a hard route connection just to allow more comfort for players that are pushing on the aforementioned platform.

• The weapon timers are far too high, IMO. The predominant goal for players during gameplay is to control different points around the design effectively, thus there needs to be appropriate counters (this includes deterrents) for said control points to enhance flow, further promote movement, and create balance. The primary problem with the current timers is that they limit the viability of the power weapons being counters to a team effectively exhibiting upper level control simply because they respawn so few times. Adjusting the timers accordingly to the predetermined path that you wish for players to take would not only make the weapons a more effective counter (due to the fact that they would need to respawn faster to accomplish the former), but it would also emphasize full map control as opposed to upper level control (in the case that the railgun be moved to a lower level /cough). With all that said, I would also consider including another power weapon somewhere if you can.

• The only large problems I found with the design were the lack on connections and amount of seperation between the upper levels. The unfortunate thing is, however, that only resolving one would make the other more of a problem (opening up LoS between each room would create standoffs if players didn't have immediate connections between said rooms | opening up connections without opening up LoS to match would offer players to many options of escape and create cat n' mouse styled gameplay). My only suggestion would be to scale the design up some so that you can incorporate an upper level to the center that bridges each room together while opening up windows in the appropriate positions.

Overall, I liked it quite a bit. Shoot me a friend request on XBL so we can play this some time, mang. gt: basketskate3

 

Are you on my friends list yet? If so, get on there now; I want to play on this map with you. I'm "thealm0ndkiller".

Very clean. From the screens, it doesn't look like a FI remake is necessary.

None of the geometry visible in the screenshots has anything iffy about it. I'll take a look at this in a bit and get back to you.

 

Walked through the map in forge; my feedback is largely Auburn's. I would like to see more verticality, fewer jump pads, and more connections on this map.

I can go more into depth if you join me on the Xbox sometime. It'll be easier to work out stuff in-game.

 

I love the look of that structure, so smooth and well-forged. Continue!

 

I will check out your version on Impact, feel free to send me an friend request too and I can help test your FI map when it's done. My GT is StolenMadWolf.

 

Is it intended for 1v1-2v2? Because you may want to expand a little in your FI rebuild if your intended player count is higher. Though, the palette on Impact is generally better IMO, if possible I would suggest just rebuilding on Impact again.

Everything else has really been said, though I do like the jumper idea, just not the amount of them.
