Poly crazy! I think this sums the map up accurately. I saw it exceed 700, but if you look in the direction of normal play, it's not that high. Up on the round ledge looking down, or across the way: Average polys are 350-550. This is way too many polys for the eye candy that is in view. Running around on the ledge: About 135. That's good. Fighting on the lower arena floor: About 200 average. Slow machines should expect annoying lag throughout much of the map. Fast machines should be able to do okay.
The map does look pretty cool. There is a strange mix of textures between the arena and the little rooms that jut off from it. You have the mossy, green block in one area, then the Shane Church stuff in another. Different. The bots work fine: they don't have much to challenge them. The super shock is placed at the center of action, and it is fun to try for it. Play this one with about 4, and it will help the lag situation if it becomes a problem for you.
I think I'll sum this one up by saying it's not a good map if you have a low-end machine, but a faster one would change things. It's a basic map. There isn't much except some arena battles going on, which is fine if that is what you enjoy. The super shock adds some excitement, and the place does look rather nice in the arena. Add some points to the overall score if you want, if you have a fast system. The Fun Factor and the Playability reflects the score for slower computers, so this drags the overall score way down. |

| Halo14 | Rating: 9 | | Whoa! this is some cool shit! Its like Morbias and Fractal only ten times as challenging and much more fun! And my comp didn't suffer any speed problems, but I have a fast comp:). I think this map has probably the most skilled bots I have ever seen, and I especially like the Architecture.
| Lustmord | Rating: 6.5 | | I tries this one with a few friends (i.e. shock fodder) and a good time was had by all. Except for the one with a Celeron 233. Poor bastard. :)
