Download Optikal v13!

Hey guys! It has been a long 4 months but I believe Optikal is finally becoming the map I had hoped it would be. I am still working very hard on this map from all the feedback I have been receiving, positive, informative, and negative. Please, continue to give feedback and I will continue evolving the map as competition continues to go forward. Now, without further ado, the pretty pictures.

The new base design.

New Purple Box design.

New Channel.

Those are just some of the things in which I have changed. The following are more improvements on the map.

Improvements:

Widened Long Hall
Lengthened and Widened Channel
Opened the top snipe a bit more
Reduced platform size
Decreased "Clunky" feeling of the overall movement.
Lengthened and widened Purple Hall
Added more Aesthetics
Removed purple light due to framerate
Added a LoS to Training side

Weapon layout is still currently the same. Thanks, ILL F4tED

Hello, I am new to the Forge Forum but have been forging competitive maps for quite a while. It wasn't until recent that my friend told me to submit this one to MLG & now Forgehub. So, here I am with all my nervousness hoping you guys like it as much as I loved forging it. I would like to start by saying this is a Spiritual successor to Halo 3's "The Pit". I have forged this map with spawns, Game-play, LoS, and Over-All Flow in mind. I would appreciate if you gave this map a try. I have put Hours, Days, Weeks, & Months worth of work into perfecting Optikal. Optikal, as all of my maps, is continuously changing and evolving as the competition evolves. With that said, let's start.

Optikal was designed after The Pit but with flow in mind and feel. It feels like Pit, but runs at a faster pace, the intended design. Line of sights (LoS) have been added, one notably being top snipe to Objective, to create a much more intense objective game, namely flag. Also, I am taking any feedback. It includes withing lines of reason but I am willing to take what I can get. I am willing to change a lot in order to make Optikal work!
