    Please be nice this my first published map, i think i'v done everything right here.

    Ok, i designed this map for some S.W.A.T, although looking back now i dont really think that is what this would play best anymore. All the spawns are neutral, so it plays best with FFA. You could play team games on this map, i have made sure that there are plenty of spawns, although i dont recommend this map for big style games.

    The map plays very well. I played a few FFA games last night, S.W.A.T and normal, and they were all fun.

    The map has 4 BR's, 2 on each side of the map. There are 2 pistols tucked away. 2 frags at 2 of the BR's, 2 plasma grenades and a shotgun are down the side corridor.

    I played a 8 player FFA game earlier on today, we played S.W.A.T, and a version of that with shotguns instead of BR's, both were very fun, I think this map supports them well.

    There are many routes around the map, i tried my hardest to make sure that the map was fair, even though completely aysymetrical. I have put spawns everywhere, you cant spawn camp. Even on S.W.A.T

    The reason i didnt want to make this specificly a S.W.A.T map was because that alot of the spawns dont have instand cover, it plays better with a weapon set that doesnt mean you can get killed instantly, one that gives you a fighting chance.

    I am quite proud of this map, usually i get bored mid-way through making a map and end up deleting it for space, but for once, i finishes one, so, i thought id publish it, and see what the Forge Pro's think of my work.

    k well, I would definetly think thst the interlocking glitch would really help your map. The interlocking would help by making the map seem more cleaner.
    I personally admire SWAT maps and made one sort of like this one. Another suggestion (especially with SWAT maps) is to make sure that no1 can get out of the maps and such. Overall good job for your first post here. And welcome to Forge Hub =)

    You cant get out the map, dont worry about that. And also i used a bit of interlocking, but only when it was necassary, most of it just slotted together fine.

    The map is very good! Played it for the first time today, and it plays very well. We played FFA and S.W.A.T. both were good, well placed power weapons like shotty's made it a bit more interesting and the BR starts were perfect for it.

    I recommend playing it was very entertaining. Especially good for 6-8 players FFA or 8 player S.W.A.T teams. Try it out!

    By the screenshots at first it looks confusing but Im not sure I havent played it. But you should use more interlocking just to make the map look nicer. I might check this one out.

    I have already posted this 2 posts up....

    I did use interlocking, where it was needed. Most of the pieces slotted perfectly together...
