This is one of the best maps and I think it should be featured!"

Absolution is a new map I have worked on and tested for a while. After working on Evasion (Link in my signature), I was told it was open, and cluttered. It played great, just a little cluttered, and it got laggy with too many people.

So, with this map I have made some cool things. First off I made a Snipe/BR tower in the back part of the map, which has a grenade bank to make sure there are no campers. By grenade bank, I mean it will catch grenades you throw at it. So, if there is a camper with a regenerator and he luckily got the overshield also, throw stickies, and frags, they will bounce off the circle and land on the platform.

On another note, there is a true BR tower, with a BR and 2 stickies, accompanied by the overshield. Behind the tower is the sniper spawn. There is a grav lift, which can get you on places on the map that you can't jump to. But the real reason it is there, is because it will put you up into the flamethrower room, just above the sniper spawn. So when planting the grav lift, throw it right where you picked it up.

There are 2 turrets, with long respawns, there is no whoring in this map...(I made sure :D) There are fusion coils next to the turrets, so if there is a dirty turret whore, you can take him out.

All the gametypes suited for this map all are equally intense and heart pumping. Ok, enough talk, screenshots, and details.

I like that pentagon tunnel. It really adds a nice touch to this map. Clever, haven't seen anything like it. Kinda odd that the two turrets here can fire directly at each other, though.

Well, kinda like The Pit. They are in front of each other, and mostly people won't stay up there long enough to duel.


Thanks for recognizing my hard work
:D

this looks pretty good. Seems very busy.
I like the middle bit with wall corners.

Ok, I fixed the DL link, I was just told that this should be featured. I hope it does! Also, why don't I have a rating? Like, not even 3-5 stars? How do people rate, and I rate?

ratings don't mean anything, i'm pretty sure that unchained had 2 stars at some point, so never take the ratings to heart.
as for the map, the design is nice and some features are quite unique (the bridge), the only possible problem i could pick-up from the pics is how close the sniper and grav hammer are, in larger games it would probably act a lot like the pit, people know where the weapons are and there are fair contests for them, but in smaller games with a single kill one team would have a major upperhand in gaining control of these weapons.
i like the design of the bridge, and i'm guessing that throwing frags through the top could lead to some entertaining results, overall, it's a nice map.
