    That picture was way to hilarious to pass up. I am so glad you made it. And yes, Furious design was great.

    Yup. The only part that isn't is above the pit, but the walls are to high to get over, even with grenade + bruteshot jumps. So there is no escaping this map.

    Also, everyone I updated a few things.

    Updates to the map
    *Changed the name from Pit Brawl to Faction
    *Interlocked the flag stands into the floors


    So you may want to re-download it.

    I am glad some one finally use the idea of interlocking the shield wall and the fence walll ( PS I suggested it... )

    You aren't the only one to think of it. I have it in a map in my fileshare which I made before I found FH.

    Also, wasn't faction the name of a Jedi Knight MP map? I know I've heard it somewhere.

    This is a very well made map. The only thing I didn't like about it was the one way teleporter. after you walk through it, you're stuck with no where to move. Its pretty much suicide. Now I know its placed there for strategic purposes, but I think there is too little room for movement to be worth the risk. Overall its a very nice map.

    It was ment for it to be practically a suicide mission to slow down the enemies. As for the not being able to move around part, that is because we wanted only one person in there at a time.

    I can't get enough of this map. We played last night and it was just awesome. We pushed into the enemy's territory so far that people started spawning at the other team's base, it was crazy! It's not a spawn problem, it's just what happens when your team whips ass. I highly recommend this to everyone!!!

    The architect (Furious D 18) and the engineer (Wakko45) have both delivered very professional results in Faction. I've played this several times, and it's always about as good as it gets. I've only played conquest on a few differant maps, and this one sets the standard.

    I saw the blueprints, and the idea was very solid on paper. All the deviations from the standard conquest game that Furious came up with only improve the experience. It came out of Wakko's forge just like it was supposed to. The map is very beautiful. I really like all the differant surfaces used, such as the fences in the ceiling, and the fence/shield combo to make a window over the main room from the spawn area.

    The gameplay is better here than it is in standard conquest maps. The ability to take pot shots at your opponents as they grab their obvious terretories gives them a certain value. The infamous teleporter boxes are a sick little twist that should be recreated in every conquest map to come. The main room of contention is spacious enough for the real battle that is the core of the conquest game. I actually played a game in which both teams somehow rotated around the main room into each other's base and started spawning there, effectively trading bases.

    Why all the 9's instead of 10's? It's a very close quarters game for my taste (even though I somehow seem to manage quite a few sniper medals every time I play this map). I like open battlefields. My opinion goes into the scoring, and I believe that many people would find this flawless. This is a mandatory download.


    Enjoyability: 9/10
    Durability: 10/10
    Aesthetics: 9/10
    Originality: 7/10
    Balance: 9/10

    Pred's Overall Score: 9/10

    This is a copy of a map made by another Forger! The map was called Vertkwest and I think it was made by Cosmic Rick but it might have been Furious and that is why it says the idea is from Furious. But still this map was already made. I find that a lot of featured maps are just copys that Guilders made of Non guilders maps! No offense to the Guilders though. I'm just pointing something out guys.

    Please make intelligent post before rushing to a conclusion please. Faction was forged by Wacko and the Idea was from Furious. This map was the Inspiration for Cosmic Rick map Vertkwest.
