Old post:
Hello everyone! Again. While eating candy at 3 am on this fine night I decided that it would be interesting to hear other peoples opinion on this map right here. As I don't have appropriate degree just yet, I sadly can't wrassle a teleporter right here to teleport everyone to my map, so you'll have to believe these screens that this map is better then sex.
Well, probably not. It's my first serious map, actually. But don't judge just yet! I've been working on it actively for over a month and playtesting it with my midget friend quite a lot. I think it's quite the charm, the map. But thats up to you to decide. And no, not you, Carl.
Your name probably isn't Carl, but it was worth a try. Let's move on! The map is arena N type map. Control point becomes capturable in 60 sec. Both middle doors also open after 60 sec, but you can access the control point anyways. It takes Heavy approx 14 seconds to get from one spawn to another. It takes Heavy approx 17 seconds to get from one spawn to another and punch a scout to death. It takes Heavy approx 80 thousand dollars for him to- Sorry, got carried on.
There still are some fixes that I got in mind, so thats not the final backbone of the map.
Things you can't be a female dog about just yet: (Fun fact - at first, I wrote "can't bitch about" there. Then I thought, y'know, some people might think I'm rude. So I wrote "talk". Then I thought, do I really think that "talk" is synonym to "bitch"? So then I wrote "be a female dog")
Texturing. Except general texturing (i.e. I think watchhouse should have darker texture, it looks like shit now)
Details. Almost haven't touched them.
Skybox. The mountain-side skybox is pretty much done, other skybox sides, on the other hand, not so much.
Lightning.
Take a moment to explore first two screens.

Enjoy the screens! Any feedback welcome! Obligatory thanks goes to all the good people who wrote tutorials here and helped other people. And my testing midget friend Ares.
And OH GOD ILL BE SAD IF THIS IS ONE OF THOSE TOPICS THAT WILL RECEIVE 0 REPLIES. So gimme a line about what you think.
Name of the map could change, I guess. But I tend to stay with things I first think of.
