    Thanks for posting the second map. It's great how this map was forged on Avalanche, I expected all the 2v2 maps to be on Foundry :). I played on this yesterday for a few 2v2s and some 1v1s, it's a pretty good playing map, nice job Furious D, you've got some very original ideas there. I think a map made for the Tourney on the outside area of Blackout would be pretty cool too. Keep it up. 4/5.

    It's fun just walking a round this map and seeing how all the different areas are linked together. Despite being so large, everything feels connected. You're never forced to traverse large open areas, there's always cover or an alternative path available.

    Aesthetically, the shield door sign is great, but I don't think the bunker is getting enough love. The thing looks like a mess but the path on top of the bunker is actually completely smooth. Walking over it is a pleasant surprise.

    A good map. Im not sure if it would work out for 2v2 but it seems like a great map for big teams.

    OH MY GOD. It's so unbelievable how many fools post on a map without reading the post or the thread. IT SAYS IN HIS POST THAT THE BUNKER IS SUPPOSED TO LOOK SLOPPY. IT'S CALLED REALISM. And really, why are people still bashing this map? It's great. Just because you don't like a map doesn't mean it's a bad map. It's just like art. If you don't like a certain piece of art because it doesn't fit your style, then that doesn't mean it's bad. And anyway, a map is made first for its gameplay, and then for its looks. This is for the 2v2 tournament. Therefore, it's supposed to be made for GAMEPLAY. What about that do you people not understand????? @whoever said this above: It's just like Arby n' the chief. "UM I THIKN IT R SUXZ CUZ IT R HAZ BAD INTRLOX ADN U SUK AT FORJEN G3T FR3NDZ U LO3ZR".

    Idc if you all decide to give me negative rep, because if you do then I'll know who did it...

    I love this map, very fun. The only problem that I have is the sometimes the firebomb switch seems to go off prematurely, its only happened once or twice though so no big deal. I look forward to playing this map in the 2 v 2 tourny. 5/5

    Uhmm sorry to contradict you but i can.....

    Havn't heard back from Neverless but he should be taking a look at the vid right now.... so it will hopefully be fixed, and there is proof just not showing everyone incase they dont feel the need to fix it because its sort of difficult.

    Ahh... so much idiocy here to have some fun with. Lets get to work shall we? *cracks knuckles*

    Unorganised? By what do you base that opinion? Have you read the post, or even the blog post that accompanies it? There is a wealth of information out there about this map and if you had read any of it you would have realised that Furious put more thought into organisation, design, gameplay and aesthetics than you or most anyone here could ever hope to achieve on any one map.
    Here is a link to the blog. Srsly. Go read it.


    1. Orly? I'm still skeptical...
    2. Yes. It was. I'm still "LOL"ing.
    3. And now I'm "LOL"ing at the nonsense you have posted as your third point.
    Let me tell you something. He has every right to call you a low life, a noob, and practically whatever else he wants to call you. You know why? It's the same reason why morons like you are allowed to state your opinion on a map by looking at 3 pictures of it.

    And I gotta say that your last sentence is especially ignorant. I can forgive someone being unsure of a map before downloading it, but I cannot forgive idiocy like this. I hate people who think that just because they've been a member longer than someone else that it gives them the right to treat them like crap.
    Have you ever seen any of Furious' maps before? He's well known for his skills in map design and gameplay. He didn't come to be famous by kissing ass and making posts in forums. He's famous because he's made some awesome maps in that past that have excellent design and planning put into them and they are seriously fun to play.

    So considering Furious' background here, I seriously cannot believe that someone would think that he just placed something down randomly without any thought at all.
    Unless you just never heard of the guy, which I can forgive.

    Again, just like I'm telling all the noobs right now, try reading the map posts every now and then. You might learn something.


    Alright, now onto the good posts.

    Thank you! A sensible poster. You're right of course, every single map in the tournament has been tested rigorously for MONTHS.

    So to look at a few pictures of a map and say that it looks like **** and no fun to play on, is absolutely ludicrous. It's just mind-baffling idiocy.
    Thank you for noticing this truth and having a little faith in the people who are working hard to bring a little enjoyment to the community. If I haven't +repped you for this, please remind me to.
    I agreed with everything in your post, but I agreed with this most of all.

    Nice, kinda sloppy boxes, also how did you get all the boxes the color you want them? Anyway I still give 5/5. I also saw this on the preview of the "2v2" Playoffs!

    Ok, so lets suggest it is virtually possible to escape, please explain what meaningful purpose would this act serve?? I'm pretty sure I have read that unless there is a logical reason why you poofed outside the boundaries your team is to be disqualified. Correct me if I'm wrong.

    LoL i dont care about breaking it during the tournament.....seeing as im not in it. I'm just stating that as a flaw of the map.... Although not a gameplay flaw it is a problem.
