    The Overview
    Lagoon is a medium sized, multi-layered map with various amounts of ways to manuver from one level to another. Overall it has proven to be really fun for those who have a passion for close quarter 4x4 slayer maps.

    The Weapons
    Sniper Rifle
    Sword
    Hammer
    Grenade Launcher
    2 Needler
    2 Needle Rifle
    2 Plasma Pistol
    2 Plasma Repeator
    5 DMR
    6 Frag Grenade
    6 Plasma Grenade

    The Creation
    As I began creating Lagoon, I really had no idea what it was going to finish like. Now, I would say it is just an all around fun map with surprises around every corner. The lower man cannon was a last minute idea that helps players get from the bottom level to the top in only a few seconds. There are several spawns located throughout the entire map to help prevent spawn killing and each is pointed to an open area to avoid confusion.

    The Testing
    I didn't get much feedback from the testers, but they really seemed to enjoy it as they played. There was hardly any contraversy on weapons and they seemed to fit with the map perfectly. There were very little spills into the water which was a great releif. Reviewing the footage gave me confidence to let others who love close quarter slayer to try it out and have fun.

    i LIKE THIS! I saw the first few pictures and auto went and downloaded this. I got some friends and we played a 3v3. Overall the design is good, Im trying to think what this reminds me off... The sword and hammer was just a slight irritating to me, (Could just because the other team ended up with both weapons)

    Keep on forging, I'd like to see what you come up with next!
