Floating around, passing the ball, fragging in mid air.... these things can be fun. Not in this level. First off, bots are absolutely non-functional. They float around, doing pretty much nothing. If you pass them the ball, they'll continue to float around, doing nothing. Don't worry about them getting the ball'; they're not interested. Second, the relationship between the indoor arena and the outside stuff (light poles, moon, sky) is static, and yields a very phony, 2D feeling. The arena itself is rather ugly, with splined support towers holding up platforms that have items and/or weapons on them. These platforms have reflective surfaces on them, reflecting something that doesn't seem to exist above them. Very strange. There's nothing at the top of the arena walls either - they just run out. Decent sized arena, no decorations. While this is an alpha map (please, don't submit alpha maps to Nali City), it shouldn't be available outside of the author's close cadre of friends. It's one of those things you don't want people to see. Get it done, *then* release it. I'll forego the usual 'What I Liked, What I Disliked' scenario. This level is not finished, may not ever turn into anything, and should not have seen the light of day.

I hate being nasty but, look at your map & compare it with some of those supplied with UT2003, now notice anything different? If you can see a difference, you can see where you are going wrong & you will know what you have to do. If you can't, forget mapping. Now I suspect someone will say that wasnt exactly constructive, but I say if you cant see where you going wrong & release any old rubbish then there really is no point mapping.
