I can definitely tell that you put a lot of time into doodading this map, it really shows. In fact there's probably more detail here than almost any other map I've seen.

That being said, I tried to look at the overview pictures, and on my 47" LED LCD TV, my eyes are strained in trying to differentiate areas of the map. After about 15 seconds I could discern what the overall layout was, but after that had to look away. Basically, you should consider using some different textures throughout the map, something that will help players more easily identify where they want to be. I know it might mess with the overall theme of the map, but would really help it's playability imo.

I do like the overall layout though (I think)

Wow, this map improved a lot since I harshly criticized it for being too much like Crossfire with a choky middle and easy to hold 3-4 bases. I like it much more now
Also the visuals are sick :O

Only thing I don't like is that it's really hard to look at this overview, analyzer picture would be great :/

edit: And I have to agree with Doz, it's much easier for both players and -especially- spectators if different areas have different textures, so you can always quickly see where you are on the map.

you need to use best space mechanics IMO. the map is just purely land with space at the corners. to make the map interesting, try to add spaces that may prove crucial and strategical.

also, the texturing is EXTREMELY hard to see. my eyes were blind, and all i saw was this grey chunk.

I think the texturing looks fine. It's always harder to see in a screenshot than it is in-game.

Also, if you guys need an NA account to publish any of these let me know. Otherwise, keep up the awesome work and hope to see these in GSL/NASL soon~

EDIT: I think what the poster above means is that when you look at the map from a top down view, it's hard to see the cliff edges and stuff. Maybe you could draw in a yellow and black caution line or something around the edges of cliffs so they're defined better? Not sure, really.

It looks fine in-game at an angled view because the walls glow green.

I personally like the theme of the map and it has a very interesting layout. The overview image is hard to look at, but if you puzzle enough you will figure it out. I don't think it will be a problem ingame, if you know the layout you will just figure out where you are always, and you watch the minimap anyway too.

I really want to see some games being played on this map. ^_^

Edit: forgot to mention great usage of doodads!

map analyzer please? I can't see the layout.

Until then I will say that you should work for blizzard as a texturer. Go. Now. Wtf are you waiting for.

At least get PAID to do what you're good at!

To be critical, yes the map's color palette looks ugly, in that the color, while fitting for the theme of the map, isn't very attractive.

However, once I saw the in-game pictures with the lighting and shading, it looks way better; it's dark and bright, rather than just grey. It looks nice now.

The map itself looks really great however. The rush distance looks a bit short for a 2 player map, but I guess the game was sort of balanced to be this way. Isn't the rush distance only a couple seconds longer than close-position Metal?
