Best map i ever played. Hardly pushed on the gameplay and visuals are stuning. If you don't try this map, you're not a gamer :O

This is such a blast to play. And good looking too.
I remember getting Shogo with a sound card I had bought and I played the crap out of that game, so the music for me was a big knock off.

I love the theme but I do think it’s your weaker out of the 2 maps on the pack. Still though I can see this must have took many sleepless nights, hats of to you.

A real challenge to play. Its size, however, and so many ways to escape when the fight is not going well, makes of it a big thing for 1on1 and most of the fights take place each minute around the supershield, while the ploorplan is offering much more good space... :(
The layout rocks anyway and I think it will be better for 3-4 players, haven't tried that yet...
Excellent map!

Great map! My favorite from the UCMP map pack. As somebody already pointed out, nice mix of Oriental and Industrial themes.
Few suggestions - I'm not a mapper myself, so take these with a pinch of salt :)
1. I didn't think the music fit with the map.
2. When you make outdoor areas (there were some terraces/rooftop in your map) and I can see them from inside, I would generally also like to go outside and explore. I think there were two ares in your map like this. I don't know how easy or difficult it is to do this, but if you are already putting in effort making the outdoor areas, you might as well allow me to go there. - This kinda applies to all mappers. IMHO, it makes the map feel more open and natural.
3. It seemed as if there was a bit too much going on with the textures etc. Nice shadow effects though.
Gameplay was good. Overall, this map is definitely a keeper. Download it now!
P.S. - Nice skybox!

Map was really astounding for the theme. Plenty of visuals to see, especially beyond the glass and the skybox. Had neat gameplay and was a treat to download. A map like this doesn't arrive here every month, sometimes not every year, meaning its pretty unique and cool.
Doing your idea in allowing players to go beyond the glass does sound cool and all, but then the author would have to worry about alot of factors. Like the walls being 1 sided, would need to cover them up. Need to expand the boundaries or add terrain. The map would be much neater using your idea though.

no doubt:
besides the fact that this is my favourite map from the entire pack, this beauty is one of the BEST 1on1 dueling maps EVER.
i know a lot of maps, and only a few are such a blast to play. awesome gameplay, perfect item placement, lots of eye candy stuff AND (!) a fresh, not so over-used theme - what else do i want?
great work! ownage material for sure.

Your build and lighting are top notch. I usually don't care for the "All flow and show" maps because they really never have anything original besides good visuals. In your case I would have to overlook this. I would have rated this map a 9 - 9.5, but like I said- the lighting is outstanding and gives the map that extra "umph!". Nuff said...
