Who made this map? The author is "clawfinger" but this looks like an edited version.

No. Thats the thing. I just looked at the "Rocket Cars" and the skins are the same as my scorpius. The Rocket cars themselves are Scorpius Diablos with the name changed and the rockets converted to levi rockets. If its someone here who did it I dont mind at all. But I really would like to know where it came from.

The author's nickname is Nathan5555. I'm not sure if he's registered here.

If you'd like to talk to him, I can try to get a word to him. I'd rather not give out his email address right off.

I actually don't like the rocket cars, way to hard to control. If you drive them backward however, you have a completly over powered vehical that can zip away really fast if it gets in trouble.

I'm not too fond of those rocket cars in that map either, they drive way too fast for the amount of traction you get, its like driving on ice or worse. Thats the only concern I have about the map.

If you catch him get him to sign up. We can always use another mapper about the place. I think the 4 wheel steering of a vehicle that fast was a mistake though. And Aridoom is a bit too small for fast scorps. But if those things where a little more handlable they would be perfect for tempura.

Honestly I love what the Rocket Cars add to the map. They're great turtle-breakers, and Aridoom is far too defensive normally. You just can't break that many tanks and turrets holed up on the node without SOMETHING (and you're not likely to pull something to grab that redeemer out from under their noses unless you're good and they aren't). Rocket Cars definitely offer something, and if they were removed I'd consider adding in target painters between the bases and the first nodes.
