    Under the gun. You'll get wet.
    ;]

    I've gotten out of the starting cave, but now I'm stuck. There's a big rock...but it's too high for me to jump up on.

    This map frustrated me beyond belief! I figured out how to get past challenge 1,2 and 3, but I just can't complete the jump at 3 before the needle rifle de spawns... I eventually took this map into forge with the same settings as the gametype just to fly past 1, 2 and 3. Four annoyed me so I deleted the sword, 5 wasn't two hard but it did take 5 mongoose spawned on the top platform because I refused to do the last challenge to get it again. I guessed I was meant to suicide after blowing up the plasma core, but I just deleted the wall. A lot of deleted object later and I went through a teleporter back to Challenge 5 from the submerged lobby where I promptly gave up.

    You have won this battle, but the war has just begun.

    TL;DR
    This map is hard and I gave up.

    The walkthrough of this map is now up. You can find it via a link at the end of the preview video. Don't watch it unless you want to spoil the map for yourself. There is a lot of satisfaction to be had from solving the challenges on your own.

    Yea I did this map a few days ago and it was really challenging. The only thing I truly hate about it is the host/fixed guns thing. Even figuring out the puzzle doesn't make it easier to do because you have to get the positioning of the fixed guns correct for some things.

    I really like how it puts the game physics to the test.

    Great map overall.

    It's fairly difficult, I got to the part were you free fall with the Warthog, then I died, and didn't understand the checkpoint system and I didn't know if I killed myself i would spawn.

    OFF TOPIC:I had the Idea of using Invasion to create checkpoints, would this work or not?

    meh

    I am stuck in the glass room. I am still trying to figure out how to get the teleporter above me unblocked.

    I also could not pass the teleporter in the beginning. I had to sign in a guest to stand on it.

    Edit: Watched the walkthrough. No way am I doing that.

    Jesus Christ! After the 7th challenge or so, I said..."Well surely that has to be wrong!"

    And then it just kept on goin'!!

    Amazing job!!

    Wow, my buddy and I just spent about 4.5 hours on this. We finally beat it! What a long and complex puzzle. We got to the submerged lobby and then got stuck. So we had to use your walkthrough for the very first challenge of the submerged lobby and then the jetpack section. Fortunately, we had solid connections tonight and had patient to finish it to the end. My favorite challenge: the mongoose jump. Also the top of the tower was pretty creative. My least favorite: underwater right after the soccer ball. I'm just personally not a big fan of soft kill zones, but the drowning effect is cool. Very well done, extremely complex. Just a suggestion: Maybe tone the difficulty down just a tad in future maps. Look forward to any more maps you make down the road.

    Wow! This really looks amazing. The time that you've put into it really shows. Everything is forged really well and you've put a lot of thought into all the puzzles.
    Great Map!
