Soho-inspired mall map. Very urban!

Overview:
Thank you for the playtest, and I agree with the feedback!
The main problems that I can find is that the:
1. Map is dark
2. Map too cramp
I'll first widen the map to accommodate the concerns of the map being too open and straight-to-the-point (literally).
Alex EatDonut said it best:
Afterwards, I'll deal with the lighting.
Again, thank you for the playtest! I'm glad that the map was actually functioning this time!
The map felt cramp before.
So I figured that instead of stretching it horizontally, I'd stretch it vertically!
I'm still not sure if this will play well (I hope it does), but I moved the spawn rooms up above so that the players can overlook the cap:
I maintained the 2 spawn exits, with the wider exit leading to the outside of the building at the back:
The 2nd, slimmer exit leads out the front of the map, down some...
BEHOLD,
A BIG MALL!

Next course of action will be to tweak the skybox, the hint/skips, and add a few occluders and areaportals at good areas - and only then will I move on to lighting.
