Playing roamer, it felt like there weren't enough health packs around the map. They might just not be intuitively positioned, and I definitely need to play more to get a better feel for the map, but it felt like I couldn't afford to take damage because it would usually take me out of the fight for a long time. Other than that (and broken spawn/shutter issues) I had a lot of fun, and I think there's a lot of potential for a great map!

Thanks to all the testers! I'm sorry about the red forwards, still a bit confused on what actually caused that. Will look into it and release an update this week.

I find that this map is very large and it takes a long time to rotate or push after getting some sort of advantage. Not sure if it is possible, but it might be worth trying to close up some of the space between second and mid. There seems to be a lot of ways you can push from mid into second and vice versa and it is almost too flanky.

The lobby into last is pretty big as well. It would be interesting to see if it could be compressed a bit so there isn't all this room between last and second.

Here are some demos if you would like to see what happens:

I feel like this step in 1st forward spawn should be "softened" with a diagonal surface or something

also i saw one guy wondering wich shutter doors would open or lead somewhere and wich wouldnt
it would be good to make forward spawns look more like forward spawns for people that dont know the map much

I forgot to post here after the new maps cup. This map has a lot of potential.

I suggest removing the area under mid point, the window above 2nd, and the dropdown at last. None of them really add anything special besides stupid plays. I also feel like you should remove the roof/building on top of the 2nd point. Opening the area up would allow more interesting team fights.

i'll probably add on to this post with more actual ideas later.

the map is very open on some parts but very closed in others
some parts like this feel really empty and opeen while other parts are very chokey and cluttered, and theres a lot of spaces that seems a bit "useless" or doesnt have a reason to be
the layout feels wierd

you might want to put the high ground in the sides of last lower
also, last doesnt give any space to take cover as a defender, might want to add some walls or some kind of pillars
here are minor suggestions http://imgur.com/a/XQ69P

Anyone had the time to test if left mid feels any better now? I was also considering adding two small health packs, one on each side of mid in front of the white tanks, as the general area of mid only has a single medium pack atm.

MID:
-reworked left side to make it more viable as a rollout to mid and to add more visibility of enemies pushing/flanking through there
-buffed the small health kit on the left on mid house to a medium, matching the rightside
-medics can use the new structure on left to reach mid roofs when beamed with scouts
-added a ramp to the left side from lowground
-lifted up and extended the balcony to make it more viable for contesting highground
-clipped a spot that allowed all 9 classes to jump on top of mid roofs

2ND:
-added a new highground behind 2nd accessible from valley, this should allow for easier jumps onto the defending team
-blocked off the dead space corner on the left when entering valley from mid
-lifted the bridge building above valley higher so jumpers are less likely to bump into it
-enlarged the middle entrance to 2nd from mid
-cleaned up unneccessary objects so jumpers are less likely to bump into something mid air
-enlarged the door from valley to the point and opened up the window above the door

LAST:
-dropdown be gone! replaced dropdown with a lower entrance to last
-reworked right entrance to last to allow more cover for attackers from snipers holding far back
-rised the ceiling drasticly, jumpers should have a better time highbombing now
-closed the window on the middle entrance to give attackers a bit better element of surprise when trying to sac through
-removed the door facing to the left from the middle entrance

Big thanks to the teams who took the time to test it out!

MID:
-reworked left side to make it more viable as a rollout to mid and to add more visibility of enemies pushing/flanking through there
-buffed the small health kit on the left on mid house to a medium, matching the rightside
-medics can use the new structure on left to reach mid roofs when beamed with scouts
-added a ramp to the left side from lowground
-lifted up and extended the balcony to make it more viable for contesting highground
-clipped a spot that allowed all 9 classes to jump on top of mid roofs

2ND:
-added a new highground behind 2nd accessible from valley, this should allow for easier jumps onto the defending team
-blocked off the dead space corner on the left when entering valley from mid
-lifted the bridge building above valley higher so jumpers are less likely to bump into it
-enlarged the middle entrance to 2nd from mid
-cleaned up unneccessary objects so jumpers are less likely to bump into something mid air
-enlarged the door from valley to the point and opened up the window above the door

LAST:
-dropdown be gone! replaced dropdown with a lower entrance to last
-reworked right entrance to last to allow more cover for attackers from snipers holding far back
-rised the ceiling drasticly, jumpers should have a better time highbombing now
-closed the window on the middle entrance to give attackers a bit better element of surprise when trying to sac through
-removed the door facing to the left from the middle entrance

Big thanks to the teams who took the time to test it out!

-removed some unnecessary props

-extended the walls between spawn and the point so players need to walk further out of spawn to contest the point
-reduced the capture time from 3 seconds to 2.5 seconds

rc6a

MID:
-narrowed mid about 128 units on both sides by moving the side buildings and balconies towards the mid building
(due to this change, medics are now able to jump on to the mid building from the side building balconies with just thier base speed, previously needing to be healing a scout to achieve this. snipers are not able to jump up top)
-killed a bunch of nasty sightlines by reworking and adding cover around mid

2ND:
-killed some more sightlines by adding, reworking cover, slightly reducing the width of the middle doorway from mid house to 2nd, and by moving the furthest entrance to last lobby lower
-made the top left valley flank/jump route jump classes only to prevent snipers using the spot

LAST:
-chocked bottom right "secret" entrance more
-added a ramp to top left entrance for easier fallbacks post uber
-reworked the stairs leading to last from the middle main entrance slightly
