    Looking great once again, I really like this map, thank god you didn't fly around like a mad-man in this vid, but you still have to fix up your description.

    The map is almost perfect, personally I'd add some aesthetics to the big surrounding wall, but otherwise it's awesome. Nice job man.

    Here are some new pics. U see some new stuff u will get in the final version auf Mountain Haven!
    Map looks more like a Haven for Ship with a crane and a jetty(right word? xD ) for ships
    [​IMG]
    Some new Bridges
    [​IMG]
    A new lifter which lift u up to the bridges
    [​IMG]
    Its very risky to camp on the sniper point now ;)
    [​IMG]
    Also very risky to get the rocket launcher
    [​IMG]
    Other updates:
    -New Weapons
    -Better Spawns

    Now i must work on other Gametypes like ctf, assault etc.

    Ihope i can bring the update soon :)

    No one had done this before so the idea is truly awesome and some of the objects are very nice, that new crane for example makes it look like a futureistic loading dock in a forrest area. And while the boat is just decoration I think the hull could be modifed better especially with the two walls meet at the front. I also have issues with some of the walkways and paths the ideas are there but they need touch ups in the placement department.

    I test anything but i find no way to make the hull nicer ;/
    I think its only look bad if u fly around, if u walk the hull are so high you only think, wow the hull are realy high :D
    and the walkways, yes but thats the problem with this place ^^
    mhh i must find a way for the hull

    edit:
    here some changes, do not know whether it is better or worse than before
    look, it was very complex to build, have no bridges anymore and only 1,2k credits left ^^
    on the hull i will place many weak deadzones, so nobody cant walk on the hull

    I just played a match on this awesome map a few hours back.
    Me and my friends really enjoyed it.

    The layout is well thought out, and unlike anything I've seen yet in Reach.

    Now, with your latest update, the long curvy walkway just looks silly.. Not sure it'd play well, as you'd get stuck wandering up there for too long, and be wide open for sniper/DMR/etc fire.
    I think the man cannons work much better there, gameplay wise.
    That crane looks nifty though. :p

    This map does look noice, but my question is how to upload a thumbnail image of the picture. I tried uploading from photobucket twice with two seperate image sizes, even with the thumbnail option. Does the image need ot be a certain size?
