Hi there,

ultiduo_baloo is a map created by bshear as an alternative to the standard ultiduo map, it promotes a faster pace of gameplay and works for all ranges of skill levels. It is designed for the standard soldier medic combo in mind and the standard ultiduo play and strategy still is effective here. Would appreciate it if you gave it a look and tried it out for a bit then let me know what you guys think and if there is any issues in the map.

It is an open map that is visible from a spectator perspective, and because of so, it is the map that is going to be casted for the "Tip of the Hats" charity event from seanbud and teamfortress.tv. A special charity version has been distributed to the teams that are playing in the ultiduo event, but I hoped that everybody would get a chance to see and play the map just a little beforehand and afterwards.

The charity event version features
-three minute timers
-charity event banners

It is indeed a great ultiduo map.

Edit: I really wish more people played ultiduo. So many of my friends have never played it and stubbornly cling to the "it's boring" myth or some other silly notion they picked up somewhere. I'm hoping some of these friends will watch this ultiduo event and maybe it will spark some interest.

That's a really good looking map, aesthetically and functionally. If anyone is ever looking for ultiduo buddies feel free to add me

its actually really cool, the way its big makes it so you have to jump but you need to balance that with not taking so much damage. Plus middle is a spire. Well done!

We just played this map was lots of fun Exc0. Not only does it play extremely well, but it's such an aesthetically pleasing map.

Plays out way better than the original one and looks really nice. Awesome how the doors open when you are in the spawn square just enough so you can see where the opponents are and so opponents can see when you have spawned. There are also no gay hiding spots like the other one (on top of the doors, top area, scaffolding). Great work bshear!

Really fun, well thought out. The small pill is a nice touch, since it's so far from point.

Looks gorgeous - I especially like the fact that it's only one level. Takes away the height advantage that the people capping had to give up when capping in ultiduo_r_b7

I have never looked at any map before in all my TF2ing and thought "Wow, that is beautiful"
I simply have to try this out

Played ultiduo and ultitrio on this map tonight, and it was a LOT of fun. I probably won't switch back to the old ultiduo again.

Thank you so much for the new map. We played some round robin ultiduo and ultitrio after the Newbie mixes for more than 4 hours with the coaches that stuck around. Won't be switching back for a while!

Not gonna lie, if you allow it, quickfix is completely legit in this map. Played a game with some friends, was really fun.
