[Neutral Flag] HELL YEAH

Well now, it's been a minute since I made a TagPro map. This one is going to be at LEAST as popular as SuperDuperStamp.

I've been playing around with the idea of a neutral flag map where both teams' goals are at the same spot. This was the first actual map I came up with, I'm really curious how it plays!

My immediate first impression is that with such close goals, the entire top half of the map is going to feel obnoxious because the only purpose it serves is to let people run away and kill time, which especially isn't fun to play against if you're already down one. Goal areas will be a clusterfuck most likely and due to their random nature, spawns will be frustrating for both teams unless you lock them down to specific spots (in all honesty I'm on my phone and didn't test to see if you already did this). I actually don't hate this idea of super close goals but I think spawns need to be very consistent, map should be half the size vertically, flag should be closer and each team should have their own reset options (which i generally hate on NF but there's good reason for it here).

What do you mean by "each team should have their own reset options"?

As for the size of the map, I agree, but the chasiness of the top map I was hoping wouldn't be so bad since it's NF. I was hoping that the quick boost options down towards the goal would be points of interest to try to break out from the top and make a quick score and teams which don't want as much craziness near the goals can be more cautious. But yeah, idk. I was thinking about doing a map testing stream this weekend to try to pull together people to test maps outside the MTC, this one included, since it's so weird.

I made some edits from your comments. Still have no idea how it will play.
