    Warning: This map bends time.
    Lag box is a small symetrical map made for 2v2 and 3v3 (4v4 streches it). There is no set gametype. You just play with standard game rules (team slayer ...) Lag Box is centered around a box located in the center. When you get close or look at it you begin to lag! The lag is made by interlocking like 30 stone platforms with 40 boxes in the ground. When you battle around the box it makes some interesting things happen. Your controls get sticky and snipers lose their shot.
    Weapons:
    Sniper x2
    Shotgun x2
    Battle Rifle x2
    Covenate Carbine x2
    SMG x4
    Rocket Launcher x1 (may be hard to pick up)
    Frag grenade x6
    Plasma Grenade x6
    Fire grenade x2
    Now for some map pictures:

    walls with shotgun that grenades go under. (on both sides of the lag box)
    Well there you have it.
    I interlocked the heck out of everything.

    There is no gametype just use premade ones.

    While this seems like a horrible map to play seriously on, I love that you did this and I think the concept is hilarious.

    What's the teleporter for?

    Ah i love these maps, i made one a while back in foundry but it failed... I like the concept like keyes said but you should make the map bigger. I seems way too small for this and it is just bad looking. Try making a bigger floor for the maps and add something like bases, not just random structures. And Keyes he says what the teleporter is for... it is if they spawn below. (which you should try to fix)

    hmm, interesting concept, it would be kinda fun to see, but not enough that i would want to download it. I like the originality in the idea though, but the map isnt very good

    This map should not have been posted in the competitive section. The idea of purposefully creating lag in-game would be an idea that belongs in a casual map.

    sorry but terrible idea you wont be able to play around the center piece cause of lag and thats where most of the cover is and noone enjoys lag and also is mostly flat and not very many different ways to get somewhere

    Wow, a fun side to lag. Sounds like a laugh, but the map you built it around seems very small.

    What inspired you to do this?

    I would rename it because it is not really a box. I like the idea but I don't see how it causes a lag. I'll dl and rate later. Keep forging.

    How is this bad? He has used his creativity to create something new. It uses lag to make it funny. This way however much lag there is, it always is meant to be there, and noone can blame lag for their own poor skill. Bravo :) Although, as has been said before, enlarging the map would be appreciated.
