    Hello everyone, this is Silent Stream:

    I've been working on this for a few weeks and besides comments to just remake the whole map somewhere else I think I've polished it to the best of my ability.
    I think I've created an interesting 2v2 experience. I still have a lot to learn about making maps, but here it is anyway.

    The sniper is on a respawn of 2 min with no extra clips, rockets are the same except is has 3 min. There are a few DMRs and Needlerifles that have tactically placed but other then that there arn't any other weapons. I recommend that you just pick your favorite 1v1/2v2 gametype and just give it a try.

    Thanks to the testers who gave me feedback:
    Especially Confused Flamingo and ThePsychoDuck!

    Please note that I can't take a overview because it is set in the quarry.

    Good luck finding the hidden cone! Have a nice day!

    Aren't you glad you didn't release this that night? I can honestly say that I like what this map has become.

    I know one of your problems was cover; you did a great job of reducing the LoS with cover that doesn't look completely out of place. The railings look better as well, now that the platform y's aren't overlapping. I'd also like to say I like that you switched up some of those ugly pieces for better looking ones.

    It's good that you kept the map where it is because you could have a natural feel, but at the same time keep the map symmetrical. I also like the inclusion of the deathpit, that was very clever and i've never seen it done before.

    The power weapons are in good positions. They aren't easy to just snag, run back to your base, and camp for teh remainder of the game.

    You should give us a weapon list with timers and spare clips.

    EDIT: Cone hunt challenge accepted.

    This improved quite a bit from when I first played it. As always, it's cool to see maps I've tested for the TG in their finished states, and this is a good example of one that's improved since then. This is a fun 2v2, and one of the more unique quarry maps I've played. Good work Phishy.
