There's no way that would be practical in-game. If you've got that much time on your hands to attempt something like that, then it's because the other team really sucks. I'm not bashing the guy that found this exploit, as there has been enough bashing in one thread. It is a good find, and kudos to you Furious for posting the pictures. This should at least put to rest any more fears that the map is escapable in a way that would be relevant to the tournament.

civilian, I have nothing to say but this: YOU ARE A COMPLETE FOOL. YOU'RE GOING TO GET FLAMED FOREVER. Read the previous posts on this thread. All of those angry posts APPLY TO YOU TOO. Only an idiot posts without reading a thread first. Congratulations! You won the grand prize!

Note to all sensible people: I'm getting tired of posting in this thread.

Personally I think that's an insult to Furious and to those who have tested it countless times. The map is probably one of the best in the tournament, it's gameplay is amazing.

I can honestly say at first I thought it was a poor choice. Then actually got to play it and I highly enjoyed the many times I did. I am glad that this is in the tournament. It serves as a reminder to the many users at forgehub that maps need to get back to their main focus, which is gameplay. Forging is an art form, but it needs to be expressed through how players play on it. I think that many forgers out there miscontsrue that to mean that their maps must look the best and fall short so very short on how fun their maps are to play.

But you say it is a joke. Why? Give some insight into why it is so laughable to you, because honestly your opinion is only going as far as you back it up.

So I'll back up mine. I particulary play to one side of the map, the rocket side. Why? It reaps it's rewards as well as risks. I am decent with a battle rifle and so I can usually take out any opponent on my way to rockets. However if I am aware of where the other opponent is, he usually pops me in the head from sniper. Right there at the beginning it is so balanced. There needs to be strategy and you need to rely on your teammate. I also love the mancannon. It serves as a predictable, risky, but fast way of capturing the flag if your teammate is set-up properly. That is a lot of things I love about the map. There is an ebb and flow about the map like the tides of an ocean. You have to become the master of the moon, to master the map.

That should be included in the main post. Its just worded too well to be wasted as a response to the user above you Rusty.

Master the moon? erm...

this map seriously is great, i had to test it maybe 20, 30 times, but I didn't mind because the gameplay was always varied, but solid.

This is a very well made map. I love the contrast between this and urban for the forge hub 2v2. Im a little bit mad because I posted my team to late, but I downloaded anyway =]. Great for 3v3s because of its size. I had thought that it would be way to easy to get outside of the map because of the shortness of the wall (only two boxes high), but I've only been able to get out once and it was a complete fluke. But anyway, great interlocking, great geomerging, great spawn and weapon placement, and great map. Sorry for all the "greats".


This sentence is a lie
