You can cap at both.Question: why are there hazard stripes around the intel if the capture zone is on another place?
but it looks good

get rid of touch return and cap at flag. map has 0 reason for it and the layout lacks diversity making the gamemode choice a prayer of desperation vs actually having a thought out reason for it.
it works in wildfire because the map has multiple ways in and out of the bases and the flags arent located next to the spawns nor is the map a giant wide hallway with bases at each end of it.
fix your layouts, not your gamemodes. this is the 2nd map in like a week youve toyed the gamemode with in an attempt to enhance the lack of inspiration and creativity the maps have. layout is more important than gametype.

Bump for test. I am really happy with how it plays. However, it needs more testing with 6v6.
The layout seems pretty solid. But a bit flat/boring around mid. Teams were kind of unbalanced (goddamit flame) so I'm not really sure about the quality of the test. As you said, 6v6 testing is needed.
Anyway, map looks much nicer now. It's nice to see so many things have changed since a1.

Red team's engineers were also pretty useless. When we were something like 6 or 7 points up I found myself spending more time trying to take out the engineers so they would build someplace USEFUL than I was trying to get the relatively unguarded intel.
Incidentally when they eventually did build up on the intel, I was able to take out all three sentries in one life as a spy, my least played and worst class.

hmmm I really am bit worried about making it more engie friendly. But I will bump that small ammo pack in the Intel room to a medium and see if that helps anything.Red team's engineers were also pretty useless.

I was more commenting on team skill balance than map balance. I wouldn't mess with your base interiors much until you're finished reworking other aspects of the map.
