but ran through it, look nice. Very lun3dm4 layout wise though.
Great Map!
I played the last beta a couple of times with Electro (did he send you a demo?) and it was a lot of fun! I haven't checked the release version yet, but I assume not too much has changed, so on with the comments...
Given that the layout is based on that CPMA map of yours (and the fact that it is so open) it was somewhat familiar already, and pretty easy to navigate. It also meant that we weren't forced into rigid, predefined routes and paths, which made the battles fairly unpredictable and provided many amusing moments.
The mega area is gold, we naturally gravitated towards it, and since there's so many approaches to it there was a good variety in the battles for the MH (including several swan dives into the lava on my part).
The r_speeds are actually surprisingly low given the very open layout of the map. I guess it was quite cleverly constructed in that the middle section occludes a lot from view at any given point in the map, so you're never rendering it all at once.
My only complaints with the last beta were that there was not quite enough health in easily accessible places. There was probably enough health around if you added it all up, but you had to work for it. I would have maybe added some near the SNG and maybe in a few other high traffic areas, so you could find it easily when you needed it. Oh, and you're a real bastard for lowering those arches on the top level and denying the bunnyhopping :(
I've gotta go check the new version out now...
Hmm

Isn't it a remake of that?
