Then it's a 2v1 which you should win, and you have 3 seconds or so to gain position.

DAMMIT, SHOCK! You just ruined it! We were going to do that right at the start and totally demoralize our opponents. And now you ruined it. I hope you're happy. (Spoiler removed m'dear...)

Actually, I didn't even think you guys realized that. In hindsight, how silly of me to assume that I know more about the map than you.

Good job putting people in their place, but please don't spoon-feed them any more map strategy. Let them figure it out themselves, or suffer the consequences.

And by the way, guys, it's a double-elim tournament. So even if you lose on this one, you'll still get to play the next map, which has very different gameplay. Far more traditional. And if you're a BR king, you'll love it.

^ That was my tactic. And i told Shock it...

Stop spreading!!!!!!!

During construction... and yes you can have the credit :P

You'll also love it if you like white.

Also, the top is not too strong. Sure, it is a power position, but it should be, giving the players up there an advantage. But you can get up there just as easily. Back in the far window panel room, get on the extra ledge, then buddy jump into the window area. You're in just a powerful position as they are, and they don't even expect it.

I really dont even pick up a BR unless its like... there. Ive been dueling the SMG and Pistol/Mauler and it works really well. Also tripmining then nading works really well on this map for getting kids who think camping in that window panel room is a good idea.

There are 4 BRs that spawn on the map, with a run-time maximum of 6. Its ample, especially considering the size.

In the original post, there are two line breaks between the first pic and the second pic, but only one line break between the rest. Sloppy.

Fixed... ;-(

Wow... I'm surprised that the map makers and staff gave away so much information on this first map of the tourny. Be careful... don't let the ignorance and the unappreciative get you worked up. Most people know you guys are doing an awesome job hence why some respond with "I'm glad there's someone else out there that agrees with me." Not a verbatim quote but you know what I mean.

This first map blew me away because it was almost a new style of game play where you have to be just as aware vertically as you would horizontally. I can see where it frustrates people at first, but it evens the playing field between good players and inexperienced players. I played 2v2 with my partner against two friends who were inferior to us in Halo. We made one small mistake, lost some key weapons, and the other team got a good position to where it was very difficult to regain control. It was a close game for a good while. It was frustrating but very exciting so I'm stoked about the tourny.

I think I may have found a glitch however... nothing big but something that confused me. I had the ball up top and would drop it to help my teammate and I would accidentally drop it over the side. About 5 seconds later after I looked over the edge to find it I would get "Play Ball!". Convenient for me but not so much for the other team. I'll have to watch the film in theater to see if it fell off the map or something. Just thought I would let the staff know.


Anyways, thanks again to the staff and everyone else for putting a tournament on for everyone. It's hard to believe that some people would rather complain about someone else's hard work rather than go make their own tournament since they think they can do such a better job creating maps, testing maps, organizing sign-ups, making brackets, posting updates, etc. Thanks again, see everyone either tonight for TGIF or Sunday and later for the tournament.
