    to be honest, i think how youve overlapped so many objects to make the top floor makes it somewhat ugly. It looks super cluttered and gives it the appearance of messyness, however, thets just my own opinion. You could try using different pieces to remake the floor in a neater style. Other then that, the symmetry and layout of the map is good.

    Reminds me of Construct for some strange reason. I like it but it is cluttered up there and slows down the FPS for me a bit :\ I love it though and downloaded it right away.
    GOOD JOB AND have a nice day.

    Thanks a lot iTz Kneecap eH. I have to work on the screen lag a little bit, but the people that I have played with so far have had just a little bit on the top outside balcony. I'm going to try to rework it a little bit. It could be the glass flat 2x2 blocks.

    There is no way to make an octagonal shape without a number of over laps to the radius I had made it. I don't like how bungie made things look when they are merged. Most the time the game doesn't know what object to render.

    Honestly, I don't see anything wrong with this map. 3 levels to pwn on, good architecture, it looks good. And other people, let me ask you these things:


    - kneecap, how does A FLOOR screw you up?!?!?!?!

    - to guy with the ninja pic or whatever, who gives a crap!!!!! It's a merged floor, is it gonna ruin the game!?!?!?!?! NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    IMHO, it's a great map for 1v1, and it has a lot of view angles to pull off some really clutch shots. I just don't think it works as well as a 4v4 map. I like the design, and the way the levels are accessible a lot, it just seems too enclosed and confusing. Good map other than that.

    Looks almost complicated in a way but i'm sure it's not. I'll DL and tell you what I think.
