    Map Description


    An original FFA map or small teams based map. It's extremely fast paced. There is no place to hide. The Dome is perfect for people who are tired of campers or who just want a dose of intense non-stop action. ​

    This map took a lot of time to build. I'm guessing around 30 hours. Everything is glitched and many new rounds were made in making this map. The goal of this map was to make an extremely fun small arena map. I hope you all enjoy the map as much as Im T Dawg and I do.​

    Note: This map is great for FFA. The map is also set up for Oddball and Hill and there is also team spawns. I preffer to play it with MLG settings but you can use whatever you want.​
    Weapons
    • 1 Rocket at 0 spare clips, 60 second respawn
    • 8 Plasma Nades, 10 second respawns​
    • 8 Grenades, 10 second respawns​
    • 4 Battle Rifles, Default Respawn​

    Gametypes Supported
    • FFA Slayer
    • Team Slayer​
    • Oddball​
    • Hill​

    Simply amazing. Great geomerging and interlocking. Way better than the stuff I could have pulled off. 5/5

    Magnificant. Fantastic! It's really good. Seems good for FFA with more than 3 people, because it's so open there could be alot of spawn killing. If there was away to make a safe spawn area, it would make this map probably featured. 4.5/5

    PS please change forum post name to just "The Dome"

    This is an awesome map! Great interlocking/geomerging. Also I think you did a great job with the weapon arrangement. 5/5 and a DL from me!

    althought the map idea and layout are great the construction kind of doesnt live up to it.
    Not to be mean but a fair amount of walls and such are a bit crooked.
    I'd like to see the weapon list with all of their settings pl0x.
    I love the symmetric arena style theme it has, I'll dl and try to report back later.

    Ya. Sorry about the walls being crooked everyone (and other things)! lol the walls of the map were actually created by Im T Dawg on a very drunk and late night. Him & I should probably go back and redo the walls. But we figured the maps still functional and fun so we'd post it anyways. thx for the constructive crit!

    Looks really great. Good concept. My only concern is the replay value. It'll probably get boring after the first couple of games on it.

    Well for me playability comes first then I spend ages tweaking making sure it both looks and plays great, I think this has potential to be a great map but all you need is patience, for all the little things, to make them perfect.
    I look forward to testing this.

    It's a very good concept but cood use some working on. Making it look neater would be a start, and maybe using something other than bridges for the top. Other than that it's a very good map.

    yeah, the walls need to be fixed up a little bt, and the bridges dont look smoothe at all, its a great idea, just looks like it needs a v2

    dear God. I love it. Hly crap.. amazing. after playing it for a few rounds, i threw in some spawn areas (circlular) for each gametype. kept the spawning order harder to figure out.

    WELL done. This map is going to become featured some day, make the walls straight, fix up some other things. play it and play it and play it till you know nothing else could be changed in it, and then you will see it on the front page.

    5/5

    i think this map is a good start because the spawn killing thing as poeple said could be a big problem and some objects arent that neat. i do not belive it took 30 hours to make... maybe 5

    2.5/5

    Very very good map, although I do have to say you could have made the dome itself a little nicer, other then that its going to be a great map.

    And I also agree with the fact that there will probably be alot of spawn killing.

    I like this a lot since it seems so playable
    I personally would make a gametype with no weapons on map + Snipers starting weapons. That'd be really fun.
    It's well made and looks like a great arena map.
    8.8/10

    I've also made an arena map, and I dont quite like the way you interlocked everything, and also dont like how you will have "bumps" while walking on the upper part and the stairs to the upper part....otherwise, nice use of lifts to the top i like the idea!
