So if there was a 4 day mapping contest for a one map well, that would have entered the contest. It feature a new vehicle, the black manta, codded by Porcupine and skined by me. However, the black manta is basicaly the same as the stock manta but it have different statistics. www.kantham.com Review Rating -- User Rating 5 Overall Rating --

Gameplay isn't very great either. This map consists of two cores and two nodes, with each node being connected to both cores with a relatively straight path. It is very open, leaving a lot of space for snipers and such. Cores and nodes aren't protected by any kind of architecture or terrain, making them very vulnerable to attack from afar. EDIT: Ah, I see. But you haven't made any setup using all four of them. I created a setup like this: Red Core - Top Node - Right Node - Blue Core Red Core - Left Node - Bottom Node - Blue Core When I played the second setup, I won in within 1.5 minutes both plays. With this setup, it took me almost 15 minutes to take the enemy core out. The only thing that unbalances this setup is the vehicle placement difference between the top and bottom node, giving the red team an advantage. However, I started to feel more potential for this map. One more point to consider: The bases don't have vehicles enough for 16 players. I think you could make a very nice map out of this by considering some of the points I just pointed out. Kantham 02-19-2006 08:11 PM MST   Oi, Im sorry to hear that. I personaly enjoyed it offline. And no, it consist of 4 nodes, sir. Try the other node setup.

Also, with the first setup, there's too much good crap at that far node for the team who has it (amp, deemer, target painter, tank, etc.), meaning whoever gets that node first will win. Thus, I'm gonna have to agree with the 5.0 score. It's got potential and has an interesting look to it (the blocky rock cliffs remind me of Unreal), but the node layout and weapon/vehakal balance needs work. redfist 02-15-2006 12:37 AM MST   Outside map, outside map, woot woot.
