Complex 09A - Sidelonged

I've been tinkering with this map for some time now and I finally feel that it's ready. The map supports ALL gametypes, but I prefer neutral assault, slayer, king of the hill and team slayer.

Complex 09A is a forged Foundry map which focuses on open and close-quarters combat. It features both original bases with a central arena in the warehouse with many ways in, out and around.

This map is fast approaching 200 downloads on bungie.net. Thanks to anyone here who has downloaded/played/commented on/rated my map!

From behind each base the map works in two ways. A player can choose to take the top shield door route or the bottom route. Taking the top route leads the player along a short walkway and into the central area. Taking the lower route leads the player around the walled central area to its rear entrance. Players taking the lower route should note that there are also one or two other ways to jump the wall and gain access to the centre. Once inside the centre there are numerous ways up and out.

I designed this map to be almost symmetrical but still balanced. A spartan laser on one side, for example, is countered by a sniper rifle on the other. Each team can get from one side to the other in the same space of time. Shield doors, at the main entrances to each base, reduce grenade spam and give defenders an extra line of defence.

- Sign A points to that team's laser, regenerator, and active camo.

- Sign B points to that teams's sniper rifle, deployable cover and overshield.

- A shotgun, energy sword (in the back corridor), brute shot and power drainer are available as first-come, first-served.

- Battle rifles, plasma stickies and a couple of duals are also available.

- Finally the rocket launcher lies under Sign A < > Sign B at the top of the map. Run along the fence boxes and use a jump and a grav lift to grab it.

Please give the map a try. Let me know what you think. I welcome constructive criticism with open arms. But I hope that you'll enjoy it and play a few different gametypes on it. I definitely reccommend Neutral Assault.
