Metronome

[Vicious Vice]

I present you my premier map.
Map Title: Metronome
A highly competitive arena with ample cover & unique landmarks.
“that awful din”

Created & Forged by Vicious Vice
Creative Consultant Juicytheking

Inspiration:
The inspiration for the map came from current MLG maps and other highly competitive maps. I wanted to make an arena that maintained the feel of a MLG map with the larger weapon variety of a default map. Great care was taken in making sure the design is well balanced and players are able to jump/move around the map quickly. Most importantly, I wanted it to look & play differently than the bland & repetitive nature of MLG.

Description:
The Blue and Red Bases extend the entirety of each side and are filled with weapons. Linking these main bases with the upper fan rooms are the Blue and Red Islands.

The massive center structure known as the metronome (or white base) towers over the majority of the map with the exception of the two fan rooms.

The upper rooms are both connected through man-cannons making them both high points of interest and leads to many explosive confrontations.

Finally the Green base, the only structure that directly links the Red and Blue base.

Action Shots :
Beware: A good sniper can be deadly from the upper rooms.

---
With little room to move it can also be deadly for the sniper.

At a battle’s fiercest the repetitive sound of the man-cannons mixed with sniper fire will begin to overwhelm players and the map’s namesake will become more apparent.
Preferred Gametypes:
Slayer (BR start not required :P)
Oddball (PLAY BALL!)
KOTH (5 hills)
Team Slayer (the best)
Team KOTH (random hill movement)
Neutral Bomb (personal favorite - 5 second disarm)
Multi-Flag CTF (5 second return/flag at home to score)

I’d like to thank the Forgehub Community for making all the excellent maps that have inspired me. Bonus Points if you know where “that awful din” is from.

Special Thanks to everyone who tested this map.

Looks awesome. I have a feeling that some weapons may be uneven on the map. Will check it out tho.

Wow. This looks neatly fused, and pretty well thought out. It's good that you came up with a unique name, too. I'll give this thing a DL.

By the way, I love the white powerup. Which ones are combined for that? All three? If I get the chance, I'll come back and give you a semi-detailed review. ;)

you finally put it up!
this is a great map, it's extremely even because you put so much into it, although once or twice i go over the man cannons and end up getting sent straight back but most of the time it's fine.
i think i'm the red EVA in the first few pictures! hooray for me!

[GoodWhaleSushi]

Yeah, and I'm the blue guy in the very front of the pack in that screen of Ivory getting triple-teamed (just above where it says action shots) lol. You can see me when you resize the pic.

Looks like a nice mid-range-combat level shotty snipes might work quite nicely on this.

[AcidChris]

I need you to post my maps.

But this looks pretty interesting.
