HI! Hopefully this is a good place to offer feedback for this map. I really enjoyed most of it, but I think the second point in the first stage was too hard to get through, neither team was able to push through despite how fast they were going at the beginning. I think one of the issues was a spot at the other side of the map where it was very easy for snipers to shoot you just after leaving spawn, as well as the amount of walls there that made it easy for demomen and engineers to camp and keep killing people from both teams.
Other than that, it was a very neat map, loved the posters, the van and most of it was very fun to play.

We had the cart get in an ummovable state at the beginning of Stage 2. Popping on and off it wouldn't fix it, the stage just started with it being locked.

Some minor bugs that i found when I was bored :3

  • Lots of small ledges players can stand on near the larger clip brushes (I just suggest trying fixing as much as you can find but there's to many to take a picture of)
  • Third stage, for the first red respawn room the spawn room trigger is extended outside of it thus allowing players to switch loadouts to instantly teleport into spawn or teleport players to the second respawn room just by touching the wall
  • Third stage, same thing but in the back exit of the first spawn
  • Third stage, in RED's second spawn you can build in this small area
  • Third stage, there's a long ledge you can walk on right above the final payload checkpoint
  • Third stage, on the right exit of BLU's respawn room the rock right above it can be seen through (not really a problem tbh)
  • Second stage, in the cave there's a opening (oob area) which can be rocket jumped into which can be abused
  • Second stage, near the first point you can get on top of this roof that was not completely clipped off
  • Second stage, near the first point you can get on top of this opening in the building that was not completely clipped off
  • Second stage, outside the right exit of BLU's spawn there are these weird windows... yeah anyway
  • Second stage, BLU players can jump into these windows outside thier spawn and change classes/loadout to instantly teleport into their spawn
  • Second stage, in BLU spawn you can build in this little area due to the spawn room trigger not covering it
  • First stage, these windows above the final point can be walked on
  • First stage, RED players can jump into these windows outside their spawn and change classes/loadout to instantly teleport into their spawn
  • First stage, unlike all the other ledges in this small area this one isn't clipped off
  • First stage, these 2 roof above BLU's spawn can be walked because they weren't clipped off completely
  • First stage, BLU players can walk against the walk near this exit at spawn and change classes/loadout to instantly teleport into their spawn
  • First stage, BLU players can walk against the walk near the front exit at spawn and change classes/loadout to instantly teleport into their spawn
  • First stage, BLU players can jump into these windows outside their spawn and change classes/loadout to instantly teleport into their spawn
