    Ok that was a weird comment... but i think its a really good map. Ive always loved pinnacle and i think you just made it cooler. (dont spam me for liking pinnacle lol) I think you did a great job creating cover and making a more closed map while still making it look cool. The only problem i have is the Middle part because it looks a lil wierd, but other than that i think you made a succesful map! If only you could fix the cage...(too bad its unfixable:( lol)

    One thing that Pinnacle most certainly needs is a way up to the red spawn tower from the red side sniper spawn. Try changing the lay-out a bit instead of only the looks.

    A new spin on such an old map. I like what you have done with the place, although I must second the motion proposed by BrassBalls, the center does look a little weird. maybe a little shuffling of that structure to add more cover or something...other than that, I think you might just have something there.


    ascetics: 7 /10
    originality: 4 / 10


    such a low score on originality because you did not start from scratch. can't wait for the update.

    asthetics look really good, really clean. in fact the architecture looks very neo-greek, whole thing kinda reminds me of Myst.
    however, i dont really recall ever thinking 'man, i wish i had some cover above me' wherever you added cover, it wont be a detriment but it wasnt exactly necessary. ill give it a download to try it out, but i dont feel like it will play different enough from the original Pinnacle for me to really keep it or really like it.
    that being said, good work, i really look forward to any original/from scratch releases you come up with, your asthetics look really good.

    by cover, do you mean roofs? because that is mostly the only change I see?

    Ok guys, i didn´t only add a roof to the level (so to speak)
    I added cover in places where it would be difficult to walk around without getting shot form the turret tower.
    That's also one of the reasons i changed the side of the turret tower so you can enter the top of the tower easier through a fixed number of jumps.

    That said, when playing on infection, more random boxes and what not, appear on the map so the humans will have a harder time to kill the zombies, and the turret tower isn't as much of a camp spot anymore.

    Mabey i didn't explain very well but: ''There are items on the map that only spawn with the infection gametype''

    PS: Don't consider this a whole new map. Consider this a ''remix'' or ''edit'' on a map.

    I agree that there should be a way to get to red tower from sniper spawn. That would probably make Pinnacle a good map.

    It's a good edit, but I don't feel you've fixed all the problems that Pinnacle had. 7.6/10
