Okay, performance aside, this map is FRIGGIN AWESOME.

Finally a map where light mechs are naturally strong.

Pros;

Light mech friendly
LRMs are less effective (There are no less than 3 maps with wide open spaces where spud launchers excel, stop crying)
Good spots where larger mechs won't fit (you can actually get away from a bad engagement, theres lots of cover those guys can't use. Again a boon to light mechs, and I think fitting for an urban combat environment.)
SO MANY ANGLES AND LEVELS

Cons;

Performance (rocking a steady 40fps, but they're working on optimization)
I have found one building that can be glitched into (can't shoot out of it, but still reporting)
Favors K/D preservation at the end of the match (there are spots a cicada can reach that would make it difficult if not impossible to end a skirmish match if they wanted to hide up there.)



All in all, I LOVE IT.

But I think they might need to look at banning skirmish on the map, but they should wait to see if people are actually going to grief it like that. So far I've seen one Cicada go up to that real high spot at the end of skirmish and hide, but he came down when we started talking smack.
