Pros: The games run smooth and, (even though its been a while. this was the first es/pl map and i love it for that
Cons: a few of the key choke points are near impossable when the numbers are up and a demo, pyro and engie can make some near impossable to pass.

Pros: This map is extremely fun, and it really does encompas the meaning of teamwork at times. It looks brilliant, and it gives a multitude of both open and closed spaces along the way for both teams to battle through.

Stage 1 is action packed and fast paced, where both teams have to watch out for each other due to the many ways to get around, and a mad dash on the final point.

Stage 2 gives off a different feel, a lot more open, less claustaphobic. It contrasts nicely to be open after the closed in spaces of Stage 1.

In Stage 3, I simply love that the cart can either go one way or another. That had the whole server screaming with enthusiasm once it went the opposite way the second time round. It leaves both teams guessing, strategies having to be reformed in an instant.

Cons: Stage 1, unfortunatly, is way to hard to Blu at the end. It is sometimes literally impossible on my full 24 man server for Blu to win, no matter what they try. Engineers can set up so quickly once their stuff has been destroyed, and there are so many blindspots for Blu, due to that archway limiting their view. On the otherhand, due to the Red's spawn position, there is a large chance of spawn rape, especially since Blu can get behind the main red force at the start of the map due to that second exit from their spawn area, and head to Red spawn instead of the main action.

I have very little complaints about Stage 2. However it does seem that the first cap point is very easy for Blu to capture, and most of that opening warehouse is unused by any class. They all stack along the catwalk or right infront of the main door.

The one big issue the server has found with Stage 3 is the Red spawn-into-walkway, which is impossible for Blu to walk up onto. Again, on a full 24 man server, Blu simply cannot get past. Engineers are safe, and sometimes it ends up that the entire Red team is just firing from that catwalk, not even coming down to where Blu has to push the cart.

Improvements: As you might have guessed, make Stage 1 part 2 easier to cap. Obviously dont make it a breeze through, but that last bit is nearly impossible. Also, perhaps only unlock that second exit for Blu when the first base is capped, to prevent spawn raping, and prevent Blu from coming behind Red? That first bit is always a push over due to Blu being able to get behind Reds defences so easily.

There is little I can see on which you can improve Stage 2, so leave it for now.

For Stage 3, do something similar to Stage 1: Make the begining bit harder for Blu, the ending bit easier. Make that Red catwalk more open at the end, and maybe accessible by Blu team? Also, make an explosion when the bomb reaches it's destination.


Notes: It may look like a lot is wrong with this map, but it is actually a brilliant map to play on. It is well liked on the server, and people always have fun when playing it. I hope to see the next version soon!

Pros: great map, i loved when stage one was released sperately been itching to play on this
Cons: 2 new areas are a little bland but show some serious potential
Notes: still to play it with a full server to ill geive more feedback then

The first stage is the same as the es version and the cap point is so hard to take its under red spawn so its impossible
