    WangTrap is a Sandtrap map variant that focuses heavily on vehicle use. The Elephants are the spawn points for both teams, and each have 3 rocket launchers, a missile pod, and a spartan laser which does not respawn. Make for your team's weapons at the start, located near the Elephant spawn point. Located there are 2 sniper rifles, 2 shotguns, and 7 battle rifles. Each side has 2 warthogs, a gauss warthog, 3 mongooses, a prowler, a banshee, a chopper, a scorpion tank, and a banshee. There are also teleporters near each base that lead up to the top of the map, where the player can find another sniper rifle and a hornet. Located in the center bunker in the map is a stockpile of Overshields, Cloaking, a ton of both plasma and frag grenades, a shield drain, a shield regenerator, a bubble shield, and a trip mine.

    This map works best for Team Slayer gametypes, with at least 5 people per team.

    Kind of like a MLG map? Just different weapons and vehicles?

    Why is it called wangtrap? Sounds kind of dirty :p

    no, its not really like an MLG type game, its more of a massive vehicle combat map ;-)

    oh, and its called wangtrap because wang is right in the middle of my name in between the ke and the ji lol, just thought of it, the title has nothing to do with the level

    Ok kewangji, I'm not trying to pick on you, but I hate it when all the weapons are grouped together like that. It makes it too easy to camp there. Usually it means that the author didn't think about weapon placement and was too lazy to spread the weapons across the map. It makes bad gameplay. Have you ever seen Bungie publish a map with the weapons grouped like that?

    I'm sure a lot of people love having all the weapons in one spot, but I am very much against it.

    fair enough, but if you noticed, the spots where the weapons are are out of the way of the fighting so it makes it kind of difficult. this is one of my first serious maps, so thank you for the constructive criticism.

    I can stop luaghing at the name and Furious is kinda right and kinda not. There are definately times when weapon caches are fine and deifnately times when the suck totally. I don't really thing people would camp by these waepons becuase this is a vehicle map, but u should still make them look nice... lol... Wangtrap...

    Yeah lean them on the walls, it makes the weopons look more like they were put there to be used, and also you could put the rocket launchers in the elephant instead of ontop, put the laser above the drivers area, and the missle pod can be up on that area.

    Why snipers and shotguns? Doesn't that sorta encourage camping around and not using vehicles?
    Nice try, but seems to be too unorganized.

    The weapon hoards have way to many weapons lol. When is someone going to need to pick up 10 br's? Even with teams 8 people can't even hold that much rofl. I would recommend narrowing you weapon limit down and scattering them. Once that is sorted out I will take another look at it.

    ...dude i always use 8 BR's at a time. Its the legit way to play! lol Jk. All sarcasm aside 4 brs would be more practical, and less expensive. I also recomend u make some sort of cover or obstacles in the barren areas becuz u probably have lots of xtra money and it'd make driving more interesting.

    Sounds painful or dirty

    Looks like you would need 8 vs. 8 or more if you could.

    It looks like you placed weapons and equipment in random places and just dropped them

    Also, I didn't randomly place them, I put all the power-ups in the center bunker so that people would try to go there first, and conflict would ensue.
