New two base sketchup that I got inspiration from Light's thread about unique base designs. I know the middle is open, but it will change when I forge it, it is just too hard to determine lines of sight from a sketchup.

Looks interesting... maybe add a platform in the middle between the towers so that you can have a little bit of an edge when down in bottom mid. Nice job all in all. Now just have to build it.

Building this map is simple... I am already done one of the main bases and nearly done the corresponding side.

Base:
1)I like how there is many rotes ro infiltrate the base. It can be used tactically and leads to interesting gameplay.
2)The flag platform will either work really well or just turn out to be horrible. That will be something you willl have to look into during testing.
3) I also like the elevation changes. It's always something good to have these different elevations so you can have some kind of an advantage in one place or another.
4)I like the rooms that are attached to the bases that are elevated and looks something like library on Lockout. It's decently sized, roomy, and good for BR battles. Plus it has the window =] You may want to do the top part of the window too. The reason being right now they can jump through the window which gives the people shooting out of the window a huge advantage.
Overall- I really like how this bases is developed and designed. It has interesting and asthetics and looks like it should have a unique gameplay.

Corners(Connected to Bases):
1)Waste of space. You can do alot here and you decide to make it a floor area with a staircase surrounded by columns? Doesn't flow with the rest of the map in this reason- Everything else seems to be well constructed so for something like that to be so pointless? This area will jsut be a spawn trap area and a bad place to be. Add something here that you feel would flow with the map, something as easy as a small creative platform could fix this problem

Middle:
1)I know you said you were going to add something else in the actual version but just listen first. All you have to do is add something small. The reason is if you want a fast flag run you would go bottom middle, right? So make it a pit like Midship has. Everything in my eyes seems like it would flow like it because if they run it down the sides they are pretty safe just like on Midship so the middle honestly looks like it is fine as of. I can't say a definite until i see it in forge though.

I have made the corners a lot less useless and really awesome thanks to an idea by Seth. I am also only planning on making a smallish platform in the middle, nothing too elaborate.

So far I have done about half of the map and it looks incredible. If anyone would like a sneak peak, just send me a message on live and I will make sure to get you in. I have showed the map to multiple people and all of which had good things to say. I will update with screenshots soonish.

Hooray for making a creative base map. Corners need more graveyard, IMO that would actually work out perfect.

Lights, I am pretty sure I got the courtyard perfect now. Ask either Ciabatta or Seth and they will tell you so.

Plus, it is now super sexy. I will show you it next time we are both on.

Pulse, let me get in some of the testing! I won't be able to play long Friday night, since I have SATS in the morning, but I'm free the rest of the weekend. I'm also on most weeknights too.

I think you should only have one Sniper on the map or lower the ammo in both of them. At first, I couldn't really walk off my spawn without getting shot by the Sniper from their window. Later on, I couldn't finish any kills because someone and I would melee each other... and I'd be finished off by a Sniper on the other side of the map. Overall, I think it's a good map. I had trouble running the flag though, the first time I got it, I couldn't pick it up, but the second time, I hit the wall above the flag. :(

Alright i haven't tested yet but i have walked around on it with a party of 7.
1) Looks like the forging is very rushed, which it is. Slow down, take your time. There's bumps the size of fencewallls in some places.
2)Like the newer bridge corners except for the fact that it is very open other than the walkway. Dumpsters are bad, take them off, they're ugly and are litterally a piece of ****.
3) Revise open areas look like it would play like Ons such as you can just nade the corners when they spawns and kill them like that.
4)Don't really like the new middle. It deffinitely needs WORK.
