    Syndrome is my first attempt at a battle track. It takes about 40 seconds to complete a lap, finish to finish. It took me 2 days to make, and I'm pretty happy with the result of the smoothness and length. Anyway, I don't think the name has been taken, but I'm in a rush so sorry if there's any problems, I wasn't able to check. And if anyone has any problems that they think I should fix, I'll have to do them when I get off holiday.

    It works with any battle track game type.

    Ah, you showed me this map yesterday, and I'm surprised to see it posted and finished already!
    The track is real smooth, I got to drive on enough of it to know its a very well made and fun track. Definite Download from me.

    Please, do us all a favor and continue doing what you do so well.

    This looks like it is very well made. Nothing wrong about this map. No bumps and you have some nice bank turns. How long did it take you to make this map?

    The track is very, very smooth and I really liked the tunnel. Nice use of FX. I did have one problem, however. Your grav lifts are not on instant spawn which could result in cheating. Please fix. Other than that, the track is amazing.

    I played this earlier with iTz Flair and you can cheat. If you walk backwards and forwards along the wedge next to the goal point, you get points without getting sent through the nodes.
    Other than that problem this track is very good, good forging. The only section I didn't like was the second banked trun, it feels to......enclosed with all the wedges, it makes the track seem slimmer. Still a great track though, well done.

    Very fun track. You forgot to put the mongooses on instant respawn. It's really important for BT because the mongooses come back much faster this way. Simply change the Run Time Min to 8. The map had some nice banks and that one tunnel with all the lights was very cool. Nice pics. Great work. Can't wait to see your next track.

    UPDATE: Hey, I updated a few issues that have been brought up. Please download the newer version and let me know what you think.

    -Grav lifts and mongooses made instant respawn.
    -The finish of the track has been made cheat proof (I hope)
    -Re-entry to the mongoose area made more accessible if you fall off.

    Please let me know of any more issues you may find, I'll update them ASAP.

    Thanks to:
    T4K Shadow and iTz Flair for finding the cheat.
    Xx PR0 F0rge xX for the grav lift issues
    And thanks x DREAM 76 x for mongoose respawn issues, I think they've all been fixed.

    Appearance- 1.6-Monument
    game play- 2.0-Mythical
    Originality- 0.3-Resource
    presentation- 0.3-Boring

    Over all= 4/5

    Racing, nice who does not love to race on Halo 3 especially on this map with out a doubt this map rides very smoothly. I don't think i found any bumps or messed up items in the hole map. The game play was great every turn was perfect. You did not have to slow down to make turns or take them to sharp but what I like so much about the map is when you play racing with gunners on the back of the mongooses your map was perfect for it.
    Great job. :)

    I thoroughly enjoyed this map, the layout and general setup of the map is very high quality and the forge techniques used are very high quality. This map is of excellent standard and is a high quality race track that should be experienced by all people who enjoy very technical races that are a challenge to even the highest quality racer. To bear in mind, this map is better experienced with a larger party of people in the battle track game type. This makes the map even more fun than it is as just a race track.
