Map Name: The Colosseum

Map Description:

This map was originally inspired by DM Morbias from Unreal 1. Unlike DM Morbias though, i wanted more area to play; like a dungeon (which an arena should have. From there, the design evolved and The Colosseum was born.

This map has several areas suiting different play style, ranging from close-quaters skirmishes in the dungeon, to long range sniping from the arena catwalks, explosion-fueled warfare within the arena pit, and tactical mid/close range firefights in the streets outside The Colosseum.

On opposite streets sides are the Active Camo and Shotgun, whilst inside the arena pit is brute shots and sticky grenades. If you head through the trapdoor, you will find the Rocket Launcher and several dual-wieldable weapons, and taking the lift exits at either end of the dungeon, will deliver players to two sniper rifles (with no spare clips) on either side of the arena. This makes every sniper shot valuable, and will prevent sniper-camping.

On the mid-level walkways, players can pick up BR's and Needlers, and if under fire, can take several teleporters from either walkway to the diagonal opposite ends of the arena to recharge their shields. All teleporters from the streets lead to a platform above the arena where the sword resides, and a well-placed crouch jump can see the player avoid falling into the middle of a sticky match between players.

Please advise me if you like / don't like this map, and the reason why. This is so if there is a feature in the map you would have liked to have seen (or didn't want appearing again,) i can take this feedback under consideration when i design future maps.

Thank you,
