Two New Octagons

y o u t u b e

I am a big fan of Octagon and it's the only reason I'm even average at this game. But I decided seeing the same walls over and over gets a bit repetitive, so I decided to make two new Octagon maps, which I do believe will be helpful to people as well as fun.

First up is Octagon Xtreme, this was influenced by the rocks around MLG Sanctuary and how you pop around them or jump on them to maintain the element of surprise and also be a bit tricky. So I grabbed the original Octagon and placed rocks in the middle of it with one large rock directly in the middle. The smaller rocks around it are easy to jump on and are also good for cover so it really helps to simulate those one on ones where walls and surroundings can be used to an advantage. But I also kept a small path around the outside for those direct 1 on 1's. It's a very fun map to be creative with your sniper and also helps to train your reflexes.

So here are two screenshots.

The second map is called Octagon Underwater because basically, it is underwater. The visibility is extremely low and thus you will have to rely on spotting those tiny movements because everything underwater is blue (including the players unless extremely close) but there are a few walls where you can distinguish if something has passed by them. This map really sharpens your reflexes and also your vision, and if you can snipe underwater in this map you shouldn't have too many problems in Matchmaking.

So here is a screenshot:

These maps do not have any restrictions as to Team Octagon, Multi-Team etc. However I do not have the gametypes for them and thus you will have to provide them yourselves.

For those who want the instant respawn gametype, the link is below, however I did not make it so do not credit me or anything along those lines.

And for those who are interested as to what the gameplay of these maps looks like, I made a small promotional video:

Though it isn't amazing.

And that is all! I hope you enjoy the maps and I hope they improve your skill levels as they did mine.
