I can't believe that no-one has replied in this thread yet! I took the liberty of downloading all three maps from your fileshare and now that I've checked them out I only have one thing to say. Hail to the Forge-King!
I've never seen such perfection when it comes to Forge. Are you the one who came up with the Interlocking technique? It sure feels that way atleast.

I'm not even gonna write a review, there's no point since there isn't anything wrong with the map. Bravo!

I downloaded this earlier after Shock mentioned it for the next Furious Review. I was going to wait to post something until I had a chance to look at it, but I wanted to make the comment that it looks so nicely made that no one has said anything about the link going right to his file share. It's usually the first post in maps that are presented that way, so it must be good...

Yeah I know, I didn't even bother :P. But this map is just That good. I'm wondering if he's a Bungie employee ;D. Everybody should download it :)

Wow!!!! This looks amazing. You are the king of interlocking!!!!!!!! Nice! D/l'ed.

Ok, I did a run-through in Forge this morning, and wow, what a well made map. The flow is borderline perfect and the interlocking is incredibly well done. My only complaint is the lack of additional weapons besides the BR and the lone Mauler. I realize that this is obviously set up for seriously competitive MLG-style gameplay, but since you already had the budget glitch going it would have been nice to spend the extra ten minutes to glitch the weapons and equipment for anyone who wants to change up the layout. Again, this is a minor problem and one that I'm already started doing for myself this morning. Excellent, excellent job on the map, sir. If you don't already work for a gaming company, this should be part of your resume.

BTW-is the solitary plasma grenade in the actual map or is it in an area in case you got stuck and needed to suicide? I didn't see where one could break the map and actually get stuck, but I definitely couldn't find the grenade either; and I ran around like and idiot for about 10 minutes searching for it.

Hey I'll check this out, looks really neat and fun. Nice job.

Version .92 of Different Level is in my share now and the screenshots and download links have been updated.

I'm planning on making a few minor updates to Different Level:
- I was trial-by-firing the budget glitch and I'm not happy with the resulting weapon/nade variety. I plan to budget-glitch again to add carbines and possibly a sniper to the competitive version and also replace most of the frag nades with stickies.
- "Matchmaking version". In general there'll be more weapon variety. The mauler is definitely being replaced with a shotgun. I'm considering either OS/camo in a bottom area and also leaning towards bringing back the sniper. I'll also glitch in some weapon/equipment options
- A few aesthetics - merge newly added fenceboxes

Thanks for the feedback - it's good to see there's interest in the map!

Got a kick outta the Bungie employee thing - I'd love to do this full-time if anyone's hiring ;)
