Info:

I release to uBP and MG a lot, which is why the map is already on b8 but now I'm posting here for more visibility. It's a fairly big map I think, but probably not much bigger than the default maps and nowhere near the size of watah. It may look human biased (and it was in the beginning) but I've seen 3 alien wins compared to only 1 human win on the last couple betas.

maybe some pipes or some details to make the hallways look sexy but otherwise looks great!

Nice concept but it is severely lacking in detail. Needs moar pipes as condor said, or at least some kind of detailed brush work. Also, I really don't see aliens winning much due to those long hallways, but if you say so....

It doesn't sound like you've done that much testing though  and btw nice numbering (1,2,3,5,6,7,...)

I've been testing this map about every other day for the past two weeks on Unlimited BP with about 10 per team most games You are right in that I don't know how the gameplay changes without such a large server or without unlimited BP, but if you think it won't work on your server, then don't play it. It is a rather large, open map after all. And fine, I'll change the numbers to something descriptive.

It is very bland. The only colours you use are gray and yellow/sand.

Mix up the walls in the hallways and the hallways with some slopes and non rectangular angles. Put some posters on the walls (Steal em off "Transit" or "Metro" if you have to). Use different colours please. Also, this map needs more boxes. Look at "PMW" for an example of great crate usage.

Nice start, but as people said, detail is key. You look like you have a solid layout pretty much down, so now is a great time for you to start adding a little detail! Try looking at the arachnid2.map for some ideas, and think about adding boxes/crates, pipes, posters, fancy light fixtures, wall support, and random greeble to the walls.

Also it seems way to bright. Try lowering the intensity a lot, and work on lighting from multiple individual sources.

Yeah there's no where to hide! You gotta add some flotsam!
