Looks interesting.
It's unique, which is a trait I really enjoy.
I like the colors and texture.
I can't say much about its gameplay, as there is obviously only one route.
I like it enough, to download it, which I am doing right now.

Good Job

It's a cool idea. Good timing too, as I'm deliberating what map to choose for MotW. *wink*

EDIT: Now having played the map, I realize there are more routes, which significantly add to its gameplay, the visuals are awesome.

I love it!

The colour usage and darkness of the walls nullifies any aesthetic value of the texture. You absolutely overused that jungletree, and the water looks like sewage. The tunnel backgrounds are also very dark, you could've gone with a better solution ( lighter bg colour and black fx_light's at the top of them for a cave effect ).

The layout is daring, I'm guessing it would provide unique gameplay ( though I fear the constant dropping of the flag down to the sea might be annoying ), with players trying to push each other off ledges with constant spray and random spas-shots. I imagine M79 jumping could turn out as an issue.

In short: Nice idea, but not the best execution; this way it doesn't stand out of the poly-wonders people make nowadays.

I like the idea, nice layout, but as Demonic said, the water is a bit strange. Could be good fun but you would have remove certain weapons to make it more playable.

I don't give a damn about bubblywater.

Guilty as charged on the first account.
The water does look fugly, but that's as good a looking water as you're going to get out of me, and the focus isn't on the water as much as it is on some other maps anyway- it's basically where bad jet-booters go to die.

Good idea. The background is a bit dark, but it comes down to taste.

Why the hell does everybody use the word "daring" when describing my layouts?
M79 jumping could be a problem, but only as much as on other open maps. Unless M79-users like slamming into cliff-faces.

I'm not trying to make poly-wonders, I'm trying to make maps.


Anyway, thanks for all the replies people, and especially thanks to Demonic- I appreciate a bit of criticism, but I don't think any of the problems are worth releasing a new version for.  [retard]

I'm not a fan of totally re-making maps either, 's just a few pointers that could help you later on :)

Nice concept. The water is weird looking but, I think it will play alright.

Maps where you can fall aren't really my cup of tea, but this is fairly well done.

Waypointed upon PM request by jrgp.

I tweaked a lot of this level in my waypointing (which is horrible here, lol); I repositioned/deleted some scenery and added some, and tweaked some of the polygons a bit (type and vertex-color). If you don't like it, just prefab. the waypoints over (which are probably the worst I've done in quite a long time :P)
