Map Info

Map Description

This is a mystical/sci-fi map consisting of a giant octahedral reactor in the middle of a giant room. In the center, is a powerful laser which must be deactivated in order to obtain the long jump module (without dying). The ambient sound is... you guessed it, Octavarium by Dream Theater... or at least the intro synth part.

4-12 Players.
CHANGELOG
Ver. 4
Large changes made.
-Added a sniper area at the top
-Added giant labyrinth underground (no longer a killbox map)
-No longer an invisible portal when you jump down (4 portals on each side instead).

Ver. 3
Added teleports. It is no longer a pain in the ass to get around the map. Also, I hope the map lags less (since I compiled it with updated tools). The very top of the map is snark-heaven. Find the secret portal to the top!

Ver. 2
Fixed button.

Ver. 1
Release

Not a KillBox. Has more than one section.

haha, I figured I'd get called out on that comment. :p

I've gotten too soft I suppose. Thanks for ruffling up the sheets there Yak. ;)

There's no such thing.

I kept dying every time I loaded it up. I only could check out what I could see while in death-cam mode. Looked alright, but I couldn't tell what the place was. I don't know what an 'Octavarium' is besides a large open space with 8 sides I suppose.

the music made it though. it was really nice. -Did you make that yourself?

Looks like a fun large kill-box-ish type map, but I couldn't tell you if I enjoyed it or not cause I would die instantly.

[EDIT]: Let me put it this way: It's a kill-box, and unless it's given a major re-haul on layout or what-not, it probably won't become anything greater than that. For those of you who find killboxes 'fun' then here's another steak for the dogs. But for seasoned, cooked meat I would look elsewhere.

Consider this map a test, and maybe start a new one with more design-thought put into it. No offense, just killboxes aren't real 'levels' if you catch my drift. ;)

RELEASED!
Please host this map in your server with the sound. The map loses the 'Octavarium' field without it!!!!

Oh yeah, I made lasers with corresponding colors. That way the colors look like they belong there. I'm going to update the description and screenshots soon. This map is getting close to its release.
