Facetious (pronounced fuh-see-shuhs) is a 2-base, Inverse symmetrical map. I decided to create this map for Fritzter’s “Forge like a Pro” contest, but I couldn’t quite finish it in time. I wanted to create a unique 2-base map – not just the common Onslaught clone – and I hope I succeeded in doing so.

Facetious was originally inspired by Sanctuary after seeing a thread dedicated to how awesome Sanctuary was. I realised that not many people had re-made Sanctuary, or have been inspired by it so I decided to create one of my own. In the end it hasn’t really turned out too similar to it, but has a couple of simple, yet core features as Sanctuary such as it being Inverse symmetrical, 2 Snipers, good lines of sight, etc.

Despite this only being my first MLG map, I have been interested in forging for a long time now and I know most features of forging such as interlocking, geomerging, etc. This map also uses a spawn system that was based off Ender’s thread of a good spawn system, and a fair bit of time has been invested in the spawns.

Slayer, Capture the Flag, Oddball, King of the Hill, Neutral Assault, FFA

Special thanks to all people who tested, and a big thankyou to Souful Spitin for generously re-budgeting my map without me asking.

I hope that everyone enjoys the map! If you want to help playtest just leave your gamertag and I will send a friend request. I’m from Australia which explains why I’m online at different times to most other people.

Please leave some feedback, all constructive criticism is welcomed.
