I finally got some time to release RC1. This version has the huge changes that I have made to the map.
First, it has a whole second floor above the point which makes this a unique KOTH map and a bunch of other stuff.

This map has a really strange feeling like it's Fastlane's brother or something. But I'm liking it, the detailing is to a nice level while it looks like there is plenty of ways to move around the control point. Nice stuff.
