• Added basic textures to most brushes. Note that I haven't yet cut up the brushes properly so the textures just repeat. This update is mainly to test out a theme and for those people that don't want to play dev textured maps.

Anomaly is the pro version of cp_michael which has been tested extensively for pub use on TF2Maps servers. Before going to beta I wanted to make a version better suited for comp use and ultimately, hopefully get it in a cup or RGL season if it's enjoyable enough.

The map's been played in several low-level pugs but has yet to be tested by higher level pugs or in a team vs team setting. Please feel free to give feedback on anything layout or gameplay related. Textures will come when I move to beta though I may start adding a few before then.

Thanks to:

gg to Purple Plus 2, my gamers are greatly saddened by their inability to coordinate

bump, the team I joined didn't register in time and the leader didn't tell me until now lol

I have ugc experience in both 6s and hl and I want to play in a better league (esea). I'm looking to play scout in open, try me out B)

I have almost 3000 hours in tf2 so my gamesense is pretty good and I'm mainly looking to improve my aim and positioning. I used to be a heavy main, so I can guarantee solid last holds when needed!

I'm in uni but I should be available for most scrims.

Just a couple notes about clipping and spots where you shouldn't be able to stand: http://imgur.com/a/nJzlN

Thanks Tmbr, I thought about connecting them but leaving them disconnected makes it more viable for teams to repush from balcony.

As for the point, it seems that the capture zone decals still don't work with fps configs :( I guess I'll just make them into small brushes.

Thanks for all the feedback Linker!

Since this is alpha, I'm not worrying too much about the textures right now. I mainly just use them because I find dev textures a bit boring. When I move to beta, I plan to make everything much more visually pleasing and green/overgrown.

This version has some pretty significant changes and I'm prepared to stay in alpha for a bit longer to iron out the reblocked areas. Some of these changes weren't exactly necessary but I thought they'll make it feel better to play on.

Main notes:

• Flickering skybox
  
• Long sniper sightline from catwalk to rollout
  
• Point is too easy to hold onto
  
• It's too easy to flank, especially for scouts
  
• Moderately fun but gameplay is a bit chaotic and unbalanced
  
• Some people don't like the symmetry

Here's some soap dm spawns for a11 if anyone cares lol
