    Map Description
    This is the second version on Atomic Wave (which i made to) and this is Wave Ripper.Originally i made the map in june or july.I named it wave ripper becuase you go faster on parts and you like rip through them.On the original atomic wave the last wall turn was horrible and it was to sharp of a turn.So what i did is get 3 sheild doors and replaced the barriering on that turn so you can make that turn and go faster.2nd thing i fixed was the floor turn.I made it way wider so you have more time to turn.Thats amost i did but i fixed alot of little stuff and the track is way better.So i was going to post it becuase everyone says its differnent and better.But thats what i fixed.Theres to waves,one drop,a floor part,then the wall turn,then score board.People asked why is the bridges so sloppy,its becuase i hard to connect the score board to that part of the track and thats the best way i could get it.So please download!
    Thanks

    Dang Slik, you just keep getting better at making racetracks. The waves look perfect and you've got to show me how to make them sometime. One of the only concerns I have is reducing speed when making the turn in the "Floor Turn". It looks like a sharp turn and I'm not sure if a mongoose can make that corner without reducing speed. Is that a problem? Anyway, great job once again, I'm surprised none of your racetracks have been featured yet.

    Well that part is for turning any speed.If your good at driving you can easly drift and take that turn.But sometimes you just can go slow.But either way you can go fast or slow.Depends on how you drive.

    It looks good but its like every other racetrack on foundry, they are starting to be boring

    Try to make something cool and original

    The track looks really good Slik. The waves are well well done, and more importantly, smooth. The drop looks most appealing to me (especially seeing one of the mongeese coming off the drop doing a wheelie XD). However, if you have any objects left, I think you should do something for the transition to the new lap. At the end of the track, the turn to restart a new lap is sharp and I know some players may make the wrong turn back to the starting point. Try having something spawn within 20-30 seconds to block of the starting area and to help with the sharp turn. Maybe use a grav lift on a weapon holder? It's your map, so think about it.

    Wow! What an awesome track. This is in my top ten favorite tracks of all times. Everyone must DL this right now. The interlocking is amazing and the track is fast and fun. I would change nothing. Everything is perfect! I love that fast turn around near the end right before the goal line. It seems like you tested the track and made everything very smooth. I would like to see this featured in the future. 4.1/5

    yeah this track is great, and i agree there are a lot of tracks on foundary, but in reality it has the most objects neccessary for race tracks and not many other maps have good items except for avalanche. but this is a great smooth track for foundary and looks fun to play, its very open and looks like it would be good for battle snipes. great map!

    Are you talking about the wave bank turns,if you are im telling you guys that im the one who invented the wave bank and being smooth.Im the one who rold x DREAM 76 x to make a wave bank on one of his maps.Plus i made this map awhile back.So dont say that its the same becuase i invented the wave bank. thelastluagh27 made a very small one on jupiter but i made the wave bigger and better.

    I just love how you always go for the maps with which are you're friends and put down everyone elses. It is getting quite annoying. This track is good but not very origional which is very hard to do. Although just using smooth banks is getting kindof annoying. Some good ideas are drift turns (half a bank into a steep drop so people drift), S banks, or spirals. Overall really nice forging so 4/5 for me.

    Oh and another thing is the last turn back to start you should probably do something to make it a smoother transaction becuase it is a very sharp turn.

    After testing this map out, I have to say that it is really amazing, I love the design of the track and how it feels like a little city. It seems to me that you took quite a bit of time on this track and it shows. The one thing that may be a good addition would be a bounce door ar the drift turn to the lower level because I managed to keep falling off the track off the side every lap. Besides that, the track is amazing!

    AnF Pro Score- 5/5

    I am ALWAYS honest, ask any of my friends. If I left a neg comment on one of your maps or someone elses maps on this board, then you better believe that the review was accurate. I am a pro track reviewer. Again, if I gave someone a 3/5, there is some logical explaination. If you can't except that and your mad about it, I am sorry but I can't help you. If you don't want positive or negative comments, then don't post your map on a public forum.

    alright seriously like on my map which took forever and is really smooth he said it was crap becuase he didn't read the whole post and there was only one pic becuase I had a VIDEO, also I don't really care if he is a better race track maker than me. It doesn't really matter all that matters is if it's fun, that's what racetracks are made for.

    I have decided that I am going to keep my opinions and reviews to myself. I never said your map was "crap" I never used that term, you made that up to try to support your point. At the time I saw your post, it was one pic and about three words. That to me was a weak post. If you don't think it was then you need to start looking around the whole forum some more. I did not try your map. I will DL and take a look at it. To be fair, I am here to have fun and DL some sweet maps too. So don't make me out to be the bad guy. I just won't post on your tracks anymore. Thanks.

    My first time reading a Race Map thread replies and it looks to me like you guys have your own little drama thing going on here...and honestly, from what I can tell:
    1. Grow up, its a post on an internet forum
    2. Really? You call that harsh? May I direct you to the aj_ critique?
    3. Map reviews that are mostly negative = epic win. It helps make your map better. Don't expect everyone to say 5/5 for t3h interl0x
    4. Grow up

    I played on this racetrack the other day, and really liked it! The box part is extremely smooth and the ending turn is soo much better! The only problem I actually have with the map is that its a bit too short. I hope you take no offence whatsoever by me saying this. The track itself is amazing its just that you could have used more of the walls for the track. Otherwise, really good job Slik although I'll have to give it a 4/5.

    Wow, ummm. After reading this thread I don't know that I want to post in it anymore. Don't get me wrong, I have gotten into some disputes before, but have gotten over them and learned to leave them out of the map threads. Seriously, if you don't like the way people post, tell them about in PMs or VMs. SLiK, no one has the right to patent any formation or ANYTHING in forge. And going all gangsta in your own thread does not help the resale value. Soldier had it right: critical posts help make you a better forger, getting mad about them makes you look like an infant.

    Moving on to the map. I would have to say that I liked the original Atomic Wave more than this one. It seemed to flow better. Don't get me wrong, you made some nice improvements, such as widening the barrier turn and getting rid of that annoying road block lol. But I really like the original banked turn with the grav lift assist before the checkpoint more than the new shield door option. Also, the turn before where the original road block used to be, which is lined with shield doors and has fence walls for a floor/road, has the problem of propelling you too fast off of the shield doors and making you leave the ground which resulted in loss of control. Its an excellent track but I just liked the original better and will have to keep Atomic Wave over Wave Ripper on my hard drive.

    wow, all these posts having nothing to do with the map geez. if you dont like how people rate your map then its your problem and the map probably sucked, but dont go onto somebodys thread and whine and cry about it, settle it elsewhere.

    i actually played this map and it is very good, i like how it is fun every lap you play and i played with a few friends and it was funny with battle plasma pistols(not a real battle tracks game type but it was fun anyways)
