COMMENTS
I stand corrected. There was a map I reviewed "prior" to this one that I anointed as the fastest paced map I'd seen. That stood ... until NOW. Everything works so well (design, ammo, and Especially Health) that it is a joyful free-for-all. Still, it would be "icing" on this cake to have had additional areas/rooms to "flee" into if nothing else but to give the entire map an anchor in creditability. TESUK - I believe you did this to us in DMRevenge. One of these days ... you're going to knock-us-out with one of your maps. Glout suffers from the same Author-inflicted issues as Revenge; i.e. Almost-Awesome. My recommendations for Revenge can apply to Glout. I love what you're doing ... but don't stop when it dazzles you. Glout, as the author says, is a "simple" cross design. Man it works !!! It will also grow tiresome and "sadly" repetitive. This should be an outstanding ONLINE map for "short-term" play. Alas once again, it is a map-design on the door-locked threshold of brilliance. Open some doors TESUK ... I, for one, will gleefully run through. d:-)
