First some info about the map:

Mapper:Kryp(tonic)
Mp_kryptest7(i think the name will change to mp_kryp Razz

) is the first map kryp ever made, u have to take that into account when judging about the map.

My opinion about the map:

Good Points
First i'd like to say that i was impressed cause it was only his first map he ever made.

- The hardness was perfect imo. Its not a map, for me in each case, to get stuck on one jump very long. Not very hard and not easy so perfect Very Happy

The only thing i got stuck on was the maze, but i asked kryp about it and he said it was wrong and i had to noclip it xD ( i tried every single way and took me 30 minutes or so -.- )
- Nice variety in the jumps, not 5 times the same jump or something just every time different jumps. For example: D-jumps, Wallspeed jumps, crouch jumps, maze, ladder jumps, bounce jump, glide jumps, a 125 fps jump and a very nice double strafe jump.
- As i mentioned before, kryp included a double strafe jump. That means u have to strafe with booth A and D in 1 jump Very Happy

. This is very original. Also he included 5(or more) teleport jumps in a row and u have to steer well to hit them all. U cant afford to miss one cause then u die.
- The length of the map is also quite good. when u are a good jumper its definetly possible to finish under 15 minutes (maybe less i dk cause i wasnt jumping for time). I think that is a good time, not 2 short and not 2 long.
- The map doesnt have any shortcuts i think. I will award a prize to someone who does find a sc xD
- There are also spots where u can get back if u save on the ground, never a bad thing of course Wink

- Secret room!

Bad Things:
-The map doesnt really have a meaning, like jm_castle (which is a castle of course). It isnt meant to be something which is too bad cause i like maps which do look like something in real life.
- The outer look of the map could be better, but as a beginner mapper i cant blame u for that of course but it has to be said
- The map is really a blockmap cause the first jump is already hard, when it is on the main server many ppl will complain about blocking Wink

- Killtriggers, no matter how necisary they are, just suck. I know that they are needed in your map but they just suck Very Happy

In overall, i think the map is good enough for 3,5 (closer to a 4 than to a 3). And if rezil helps u, u can only get better.

Gratz kryp, with this really cool map Very Happy

First I've to say thank you, it's a good judgement, good points predominate Razz

I'm really sorry for the killtriggers, but I didn't know how to ''fix this error'', I tried a lot but all was bullshit and I wanted to take this room for the map, it already existed and otherwise the map would never be completed.

I've to apologize for the maze aswell, that was a gay part because from the begin of mapping the maze on all went wrong and I wanted to finish it, so I didn't have a 2nd look at it Confused

; I'll fix that!

And about the meaning of the map, I knew that before getting the project started, but I first wanted to make a simple map and for a real meaning you need background knowledge and that's what I don't have yet Wink

But you said that ^^

Blocking in my definition is a kind of noobness, often seen on pubs, but if you'r able to behave mature and friendly this shouldn't be a problem in any map

Waiting for comments of the others, if you wanna have the map just pm me Very Happy

EDIT: The outerlook (skybox etc.) will be added when rifle and me fused the maps, we wanna make it like in jm_pipeline, just instead of hard and easy the map will have a rifle and a kryp way, let's see how it looks like in the end Very Happy

Soon, but I've to fix some things first and rifle and me wanna fuse our maps, we will officially test it afterwards :>
The people who tested it yet just helped me to find ugly errors like the one in the maze, which isn't welcome in an official test Wink

I played it too. I find it a very nice map. I had to nade 2 jumps as I couldnt get those Razz

(Yes I know I'm n00b) The first jump and the hard d strafe jump with pointy blocks.

I did the rest And I even went behind the closed door xD Did the jumps there too. Also the slide bouncejumps can be a little further those are too easy atm.

But very nice map.

There's no problem about it on a pub, it just shouldn't be in rotation.
So if there's a vote for it it will just be playeed if more people want to do Wink
