Just some unorganized feedback..
- As of a2 there is no freeze time in spawn. Is this intentional?
- A sniper on this flank can peak all three pushing routes out of lobby to second:

- I would say that the lobby, when combined with last, makes for just too much to cover for a team of only 6 players. I think it will be a bit too hard to push out of last for instance, since the lobby and the last combined have way too much playable space, and it's loosely connected so you can't really clear it in an easy way either. For instance, the "secret/sneaky" area on last, as well as the vent, i don't really think is needed and just adds more stuff to check etc. Alternatively those things could be kept and lobby could be just made a lot a lot shorter.
- I think this is how people should make maps if they are looking to create indoor playing areas. It doesn't feel like there are many places where there is lack of room for manouverability etc.
- Personally I prefer when there's at least one medium kit on the mid area itself (i know there are kits are rn), since I think it discourages going back and getting health instead of staying in and fighting.
- The prop doors that you have chosen, especially the flank entrances to mid (not the lower one), are really small and I think they are limiting to gameplay. I think more maps in general should be concerned about having good areas to push with uber-ad. (You can also set up holds on top of mid point where your soldiers can essentially spam/bomb every doorway. I think if you made one of them bigger it would help uber-ad pushes into mid).
- I would also like you to try having the main pushing route between mid and 2nd be more "open", so that soldiers can do a full rocketjump through it without bumping their heads. Not really necessary to make a map good, but as I alluded to, its my opinion.
- The glass cylinder you can stand next to on 2nd, make it hollow or something so that you can see the thickness of the glass on the other side (from where you're standing) [the texture is acting wierd].
- You can stand on the yellow railing that's attached to the prop doors
- On mid, maybe add another ramp to the point from the under area?
- I really like the elegand design of the mid point itself, and the combat happening on and around it. Stoked to play it really.
- Maybe raise ceiling height on mid?
- I really like the elevation work and pushing route work onto last, looks cool.
- Not sure if I'll love or hate the split last point, although it will definately be unique.
- The clipping on the rails of the ramps on last are not mirrored properly.

gucci gang : when you are flexing new unusuals, autstraliums or elite grade gear

I'm going to origin

Does anyone know of a hud where the health, ammo, and uber % numbers have an OUTLINE instead of a shadow? (or alternatively teach me how to do it)

There's also another bump in choke: Walk from mid and hug the left wall. After you pass the plank on the ground you hit some bump, in both directions both sides of mid. EDIT: There's also a bump if you hug the right wall! EDIT 2: Also both sides if you do the same thing from 2nd!

EDIT 3: You can stand on the right side of this corner, as shown here:

Also, you should rotate the texture on the new sideways ramps in logroom and on mid so it alligns better.

EDIT 4: On the front side of spire, there's a small dip in elevation in the displacement. (under the diagonal surface on bottom) You can potentially get rockets stuck in there etc. I accidentally showed it in the picture as well lol.

Attention all map makers: If you compile your map and have a custom hud installed, for some reason it will (sometimes?) use your huds cap point icons and will OVERRIDE that of anyone playing the map.

People mentioned it to me on prolands and also my own map and it was always really confusing.

EDIT: I think the issue is caused or related to some custom huds preloading the cap point icons... So if you have a hud that doesn't do that, well remove it before you compile.

Vis is a VISionary. He discovered the new badlands spire meta: Equip mantreads, camp the fence -> never get knocked down.

EDIT: "Quality rocketry" says the guy who joins spire with mantreads equipped vs a gunboats soldier, the guy who uses banner in ammomod to get health advantage lol. Honestly bro

I recently cleared my user settings with the installer, and now footsteps don't make any noise wether or not the setting is put to on or off [yes i applied]. mp_foosteps is on 1 and I have the "high" audio setting. Any way to fix this ?

Fun story: I just realized I have played the game without surround for like 1.5 years without noticing.

EDIT: 1 week later, still need advice

Actshully it's spelled gnollaide

ultiduo + mge & he got 3k+ elo in eu (silent remover) :^)

Played against that guy once. Really obvious trigger. During scout 1v1s he hit meatshot, did a 360 and instantly hit a meatshot again. I don't get why u would play against these types of players... Also played against someone different with a full on lag hack who just kept warping around corners and "lagging" whenever out in the open.

My man out here spitting straight facts

This slope in lobby is poorly lit causing player models to be very dark, almost black. For some reason it's worse on red side. Just adding 1 lamp could fix it entirely.
