Metro


Metro v2
Created By: Paulie Walnuttz
Gametypes Supported: One flag, One bomb, Territories, Slayer, Infection
Recommended Players: 6 - 8

Perfectly capturing the theme of an Urban environment, Paulie Walnuttz greets the front page with Metro v2, an asymmetrical construction environment with numerous original traits to separate it from many Forged creations we see today. Combining exciting team oriented game play and a numerous amount of aesthetic pieces found only in Metro v2, Paulie has certainly put forth a tedious amount of work to update the original Metro to what it is today.

The map consists of 3 main areas; the Attackers base, a 3 storied Defending building that includes a bridged connection with the town's Clocktower, and a bridge currently being put together by the use of the crane; another original aesthetic piece in which Paulie has incorporated into his map. If you're in liking of clean geometry, an ingenious layout, and a surprising competitive game play not unlike what you would find from Cosmic Rick's "Kentucky Tango" - this map is for you.

Omg this map looks amazing, a must DL just from the pictures! I'm going to test this tonight and get a review in the morning! Sorry for not having a review on this post yet but I have not been able to get a game(of people willing to play non-infection) yet. But, did a foregthrough adn saw that the playablity would be okay and the aestetics are awsome.

I remember seeing this a while ago. To be honest I wasn't that impressed by it, aside from the clock.
That's just uber cool.

amazing map. I remember playtesting v1 (out of FH with friends) and the spawns were terrible. This map has improved tremendously over the time, and has now, evidently, been featured!

Congratulation Paulie Walnutz, you really deserved it!

I've played swat on this once before. And I just remember thinking "what!? this hasn't been featured!?" That clocktower is seriously some of the best telewriting I've seen. The center structure and crane are also two perfect examples of great aesthetics.

I also found the gameplay to be very enjoyable (even though I only played SWAT on it). The feeling of walking through an actual city-like landscape doesn't hinder the playability at all. There is not lack of cover or flow of players throughout the map at all.

Congrats on this feature. It is well deserved. Not many maps have this type of balance between aeshtetics and gameplay.
