I wouldn´t call it close combat..
It looks like fun. I like the item distribution and layout.
Unfortunately it´s already quite large, so you won´t be able to add much more to the relatively bland design.
Maybe lower a little ceiling above the sniper tower, so the quad-carrier can be fought with rocket splash.

well i played on this map before you released it here Raelus (you uploaded it to the server) and its ok but not that great. very bland looking, it has like 3 textures. i like the jumpads though. it is quite good for instagib.

Good map for Instagib or plain FFA. And yeah, good sniper spots.
