Also it'd be nice if it wasn't possible to go way the hell up on top of the trees and stay there (and shell the flagstand) without sliding down.

It feels perfectly suited to improvised routes... It's a little flat, I'm more of a drydock night or katabatic guy, but i think it still plays great. _________________ ADD CONFIGURABLE CROSSHAIRS: + * . O RELEASE MAPPING TOOLS

Uh , no. It's trivial enough to get fast , route-less back to front grabs.

I don't believe the flag stand needs extra protection , at least not without the generator. It's the only map with a midfield worth fighting over. It does need to be extended , however.

Uhhh midfield on tartarus? that's stupid... you just ski right by midfielders and laugh at them like dumbasses because they are so far from their stand they are useless.

Re: Map feedback - Tartarus [CTF]

When are the edges on the top of the giant stump in the middle of the map going to be fixed? You walk right into them and come to a complete stop until you jump or jet over them. This map has been in rotation for long without this issue being resolved.
