Interesting map but as you said yes the map lack covers in the middle of the map and it makes the map very spammy also you dont need to put e-mark that gives grenades above each player 1 e-mark will do the work.

Spoiler: Show More

this should be a wall and not a black bg(i would suggest to remove the black bgs generaly because players will think that they are wall edges) also you need to fix the lights here too


also this wall is not well overlapped.


I dont think the map is ready to be approved for now.

It seems to be a bit better now also make the lamps with no flare and possision them better and not randomly.

move the bgs abit lower

Also i would suggest to make the bgs a bit darker like 10% more.

A map which really is need to the approved matches.
Find it lovely in design, "cool".
I also find it lag-less, surprisingly there's no lag to experience with this map whilst playing Plazma Burst 2.
So I'd definitely love to see it in the approved matches!

The map still needs improvements.

I don't really have much to say about the backgrounds other than that. I'm personally not a fan of saturated backgrounds, but there isn't really anything objectively wrong with them. Good work there!

In terms of layout however,
It's a really open map with really long fields of fire.
Spoiler: Show More

Protectors also have the advantage in COOP mode. Protectors have a really easy field of fire into the enemy team's spawn (See image above). The platforms that give the protectors access to that firing position is easily reached, whereas the Reakhohshas have more hurdles to go through before being able to get to a platform that enables them to fire into the enemy spawn.

They also have a small base on the top right that can be camped.

tl;dr Protectors have high ground advantage

Looks good!

One issue though. There are two unloaded decorations on the map.

The map is too open, too plain and has technical issues. Speaking of map design itself, I'm not going to insult you because people always take my design related criticism for insults, so I better just skip this "insult" part and jump to technical issues that I've found during my quick look.

1) Cover this area with background called "shadow" and put a 0.4 lamp in the middle.


2) Broken chain + incorrectly placed elevator background.


3) Double climb points on both sides of this platform.


4) Glowing edges.


5) Not approved custom image that doesn't load for anyone but map owner? Or what is that red thing?


6) Repeatedly closing doors. Replace them with doors from map jason eden-os1. They are also synchronized in DM.


Doors you need from OS1, on choice:

Ah, I hadn't noticed those technical issues, thanks for catching them. The design is a step up from what previously existed, which is what I was mainly looking at. But yes, it could still be improved.
