Hmm, I think the sky texture is too bright to fit the map, I would rather see that it was night and no bright light up in the sky, it takes me of the mood of the map. I think that way it would be very cool to play it, gives you the creepy, "you're-alone"-feeling. And I don't know what others would think about this but bring down the lights on the outside just a tad to add to the "dark-creepy" feeling. Put r_sky 0 to get a little feel of what I mean (if you already don't)

Other than that great map, and no nex is needed.

First of all, I'd say the map size is 2-4 .. 4 is maximum imo, with 3on3 it was not playable (2 deaths per second).

What I'd like to see are some more ramps for rampjumping to the important items. Beside that I don't like the fact that the map uses so many stairs ;). Stairs slow down the gameplay .. if I come up from the lower room by using the stairs I can also enter "kill" to suicide, because en enemy who sees me there can easily kill me with any weapon, while I can barely move

As the others, I'm also fine with the weapon placement

Thanks for the feedback !
I won't change the item placement then.

@ai: good point, i'll rework the skybox. That's in fact the second skybox atm and it's already darkened. I lost a little bit the overlook regarding the sky, so thanks for reminding me of this.

@GreEn'mArine: yes Players should be 2-4. I'll try to add some ramps, not so sure about the how and where. Btw. are you aware of the ramp jump when you are coming from the electro and directly jump to the armor 8) . This also works well although you have to strafe over some stairs.

Nice map, 3on3 is a bit over the top though. ;-)
The item placement is good IMO as is the choice of weapons.

As GreEn pointed out, players at the bottom of the stairs are very vulnerable to rocket attacks, there's not a lot of place to maneuver down there...

One very minor request:
Image
Would it be possible to remove the extra collision brush on this object so it players can jump up without having to resort to a laser jump? It slows down the pace a little when moving counter-clockwise around the map.

Hehe, yeah i tried that one too. I just wanted to try if it works with this angle.
It doesn't so i'll look into it (already have some ideas how to make this possible)
