They'll just fall short of your expectations and you'll complain for months.

I'll be on after I prepare one thing.

Is HJ in the party? If that's the case, then I can just monitor him.

Feedback time! These will be from a player's perspective, not a forger's perspective, so I'm not going to tell you how to build your map. Just reiterate my experience on it. What you do with that feedback is your business


Submarine: I felt like I didn't have many options of where to go or how to approach the situation. Each choice I made seemed like I was going to get teamshot hard. The only logical choice was to stay from afar and either wait for power weapons to respawn or grab a long ranged weapon and see what I could do with it. The copious amount of power weapons helped speed things up towards the latter phases, but at the same time it felt like off spawn I had no chance.


Fortress: It felt really huge and I didn't know whether to leave my post or walk a 1000 miles to the battlefield. I didn't have much choice when I spawned up high because if I dropped down I'd take damage. Apparently i wasn't supposed to go there. Things really came to a standstill once we started spawning with long ranged weapons, yet the offense somehow managed to sneak by and phase 3 rolled around. The vehicles sped things up slightly but at the same time there were so many of them in so many awkward places that I didn't know whether they were supposed to be used or were just there for decoration. The tank also went down really quickly.

Radiation: First phase was brutal for elites. We were able to mop them down easily because they didn't really have much cover to advance. I also managed to board the ghost who was sitting behind one of the rocks. When the latter phases rolled around, one word kept ringing in my mind--post. You really had to man your post this time or they would easily get to the territories. The teleporters were confusing and they weren't a fast enough way to reach the territory that you weren't at. I felt restricted to the territory I chose to defend and felt that I spent most of the phase waiting for the other team to choose which territory they wanted to attack. Got a few clutch long range snipes though

Bunker Complex: I liked the amount of detail the map had, but overall I felt very restricted to a certain playstyle. I didn't feel like I had enough options in the latter phases and instead I was quickly mowed down by spartan opposition. the teleporters didn't help either

Drydock: Again, a lot of detail and clever forging; however, it was confusing where to go and I felt like if I chose to defend one side i'd be impossible for me to reach the other should that one come under attack. the latter phases were very confusing and nobody knew how to get inside the ships to take the objectives. the copious amount of power weapons did not help to speed things up because as soon as you grabbed them the other team would be spawning behind you to fire their power weapons on you. orientation was just confusing all around and it felt like two different battles were taking place the entire time.

Hyrdo Base: Invasion on Sword Base. How the hell are we supposed to get into Blue Room to take the territory when it only has 2 easily guarded entrances?

Herp derp.

Sorry, but would you prefer to have Banshee as your only option to reach the pillar? Didn't think so. The teleporters in pillar are more than close enough.

Thanks for review.

About the issue with staying on one side, though, I thought of it as that you had to rely on your teammates to keep the respective side locked down. However, I will take the advice to heart and try to come up with a solution.

My map, I made it for the lulz. It's funny how Goat assumed feedback was even wanted.

It was pretty funny though.

The tank also went down really quickly.
Yes it did, both times I was in it, and was brutal and felt useless.
The bridge is a deathtrap with all the barriers in the way, Elites spawn on the catwalk above and you and surprise attack you, and anywhere past that is a bottleneck, you get raped from every angle.
