Venom is my freshman venture into Sandbox. I decided to build in the crypt because is is the most similar to Foundry so I thought it would be a somewhat familiar place to get used to the various objects and limits. The map is symmetrical with a base on either side of the crypt an a large circular dome structure in the center. Towering high above Venom are it's namesake structures: two giant snakes rising out of the floor toward each other in a face off. The snakes are hollow tunnels with man cannons inside that propel you from the floor into the snake's mouth. The mouths of the snakes can be very powerful positions especially if you have a sniper, but you'll have to watch your back for enemies coming up the snake and also from the opposite snake. The Rocket launcher spawns under the center dome on a little grassy knowle. There are platforms along each side of the map that allow you to move around the outside toward the enemy base. The sniper rifles can be found on these side walls. The bases themselves are semi covered with windows for defending and a circular wooden platform above.
Gametypes:
1. Slayer
2. Capture The Flag
3. Assult
4. KOTH
5. Oddball
6. VIP
7. Territories
8. Infection
oh my gosh!!! This map is amazing, My favorite part is the obelisk interlock's. The blue light makes the rocket spawn look epic!!!! I give this a 10/10, amazing forging, good overall idea, GREAT interlocking and overall... just pure awesomeness. I'm DL'ing and I'll play this with some friends and see how it goes! (FIRST!)
wow i'm impressed you took snadbox architecture to the next level. Those snakes on either side are the highlight of this map, and everything else looks great. I've come to expect wonderful maps from you and this continue that streak. The cover is plentiful and the weapons balanced. nice job. But, with the snake things, is the some sort of lift to get up or is there a skilled jumping path? and the bases seem to retreat from your great ancient watever idea. Cool, but the center is very vivid and specific to the area you based it on, the bases cover with wood. Dotn get me wrong it's fine you took your tome and you got my d/l but in a V2 i wish to see more environmentally-oriented scerenry, if you unsterstand. i no, big word hurt brain. but u get cookie if u do. 9.5/10 if u fix and fix well, and trust me, i's my opinion, u dont have 2, im not forcin u (OR am I? MAKE IT! NOW!!!!!!) lol jk but if u decide to change it up a bit i will give it a 10/10 (If its good) very nice Makisupa.
This looks really well done. The lighting is perfect and the aesthetics are wonderful. There is a fair amount of cover and a beautiful centerpiece. 10/10
This map is truly great. Its very rare that a map with good asthetics has good gameplay, like this one does. A really great map. Bravo!
There is no use trying to be reasonable with people on Xbox Live, because no matter what you are a dumb brit from england, or you are black, or you are 13, or you are a noob, or your gamertag is gay, or you obviously bought your account, or because (unknown to you) you are obviously a homosexual, and of course the taunter had intercourse with your mother.
Where's Indie? lol thats what i thought first but wow man great job i love this map, its aesthetically pleasing and looks like it plays awesome. Keep up the great work.
wow thats is one of the best maps ive seen today! i love ur interlocking, and the snake design is fantastic! ive already downloaded and rated it! look forward to playing on it :)
looks pretty good.... lol i love the snakes, but besides that it's also got some other nice asthetical structures and seems like gameplay would turn out nice. I sometimes use that window like structure with the arches also... good job
Location: Paradise City (where the grass is green & the girls are pretty.)

Jeeeeeeeeeeeeez, your first Forged Sandbox map is so much better than mine! The snakes are definitely different, in a good way of course. This map, if you look at it with good imagination, kind of looks like a more psychopathic version of Warlock from Halo 2 (if you don't see it, play Warlock again; the central platform is the most resembling). Absolutely 10/10! I'm looking foward to more of you maps!
