Red should spawn as ct, they are defending

This is actually my first map eVar. It probably took 3x as long just to learn how to do things, then redo things to fix my mistakes.

I think UKCS-Alias' suggestion of putting the cap point in the dome room is excellent, something I hadn't thought of. I've heard many people express concern over balance, and my experience so far has been a bit of a wash. Since the cap point doesn't become active for 60 seconds, it becomes a little less important where players encounter one another. If the Red team continuously reached the cap point first and defended it, that'd be one thing, but I've generally seen both sides win almost equally.

That said, putting the cap point in the center, with its multiple access areas, could be awesome. I just need to get off my arse and fix up the outside of the dome so people can shoot inside. =)

Pros: Its a ideal remake of the classic cs de_dust. In fact, its done a very excelent way. many of the areas are completely converted to the TF2 style in both textures and allowing rocket jumping. And the map looks extremely nice and detailed and 100% tf2 style (something both the dust2 conversions miss). The map is alot better than the cs one. Further, as dust usualy was small in css as 20 players already couse a campfest, its now ideal for tf2 arena as the roof can be accessed making the size larger. This couses it to be ideal for any teamsize.
Cons: The capture point, i see its placed at A which is normaly outrushed by the CTs in css. I would prefer to have the inside to be the capture area: its can be attacked from all sides, its the center and used to be the main area for the battles. As the capture area is at a place usualy under control by the CTs i think it couses some unbalance in advance for the red team.
Improvements: Make the dome the capture area. Just like in all arena maps it will couse the center to be the area you must control to win. Also, as the center is harder to guard because of the ability to attack from above it gives a better chalenge and allows more tactics.
Notes: Great job in reviving a classic map into a completely diffirent style. As the CP however isnt in the center it doesnt get a 10 though but a 9.6 seems to be the perfect score to me.

Pros: It's dust... and everyone loves dust!
Cons: It feels a little big for arena.
Improvements: There's certain areas that really aren't needed. Try to condense and remove the unneeded stuff (the hallway by A comes to mind). You've really got to consider where you want all the action to happen.
It looks amazing - although there are some areas where I feel like the textures could be more refined. The dark hallway from T spawn to bombsite B comes to mind. It's so dark in there... and tight. :/
Notes: I'm adding this to my arena server to see what people think. If there are any major issues, I'll let you know. Please keep me informed of any updates to the map.

Looks very good. Well placed into the TF2 environment. I can't tell if the map is symmetrical through the pictures but it looks like it is. You should probably change a few things to make it more balanced.
