sky platforms
so you have to jump form position to position now and then and a large circular platform in the middle and maybe 2-3 different layers?
Which got me thinking.
We've all seen those giant platforms off in the distance on most of the maps, see below.

So why not make a map on something like that. It would be like a giant floating oil rig a thousand feet above ground. You could make it on three or four levels. Have open edges so you can fly around the outside and have open exposed areas inside as well, to give a sense of danger.
I also thought that it would add an extra element, that if you were hovering but you went to low, you would fall to your doom. You could easily calculate how low a mech can go before it;s thrusters can no longer get it back to the lowest levels. So when you reach that altitude, you self-destruct and it would just be pilot error.
This would introduce the first environmental hazard.
I think it would look cool if you had the lowest level with some kind of floor that you can see through, like a flimsy looking grill that buckles when you walk on it.
A possible scenario for it could be that it was a UTA base that was established just after the Hawken virus was released, to monitor it and help find a solution. But when it was figured out how bad the virus was, it was quickly abandoned and the quarantine was put into place.
So it still has a lot of UTA tech on it that both Sentium and Prosk want.
What do you think?
