    Just like moroes (see his topic), a map made in 6 days for a speed-mapping contest. Because the rules were stating Nature vs Technology, I decided to go on the "nature-invaded-by-technology" side rather than "technology-invaded-by-nature" just like everyone else.

    There's still a lot of work to do, but hey, that's the best I could do in 6 days.

    I'll continue this map when the contest will be fully finished.

    That is simply brilliant for 6 days of work! I suggest you continue working on it after the competition since it has an awesome amount of potential!

    In case you decide to continue working on this concept, here are some comments.

    The indoors are rather generic now and the lighting is unrealistic. It's too poorly lit for an office of any sort. By poorly lit, I don't mean that it's too dark, but the light sources are too few for it to represent a realistic setting. An office would have way more fluorescent lights in the ceiling, lighting up every corner of the office, not just the cubicles. However, the office can still be as ambient by having most of the fluorescent lights switched off while there would be focus on desktop lamps and such.

    Thanks everyone for the positive feedback.

    I'm waiting until next friday (the official end of the contest) and then I'll take care of everything you said.

    Tis a very nice map for sure, but has no-one played through to the end of Crackdown on 360? with the Japanese Pagoda on top of a skyscraper?

    Mind you I have to say this actually looks better than the one in Crackdown so nice work.
