Contortionist is an S-shaped Conventional map that supports every standard gametype. Canadians took the time to tweak the gameplay as close to perfection as possible, and it really shows. Whether you're trying to take out a chopper, capture the flag, or kill that guy with the BR, you're sure to have fun playing this map! Even while Canadians focused all of his effort on gameplay and brushed aside aesthetics, the map ended up looking great. "What does this Letol guy know?", right? Well, if you don't trust me, listen to the voice of the community:

This looks pretty fun. The bases are setup nicely IMO, and I think that the vehicles could work out well on this. I would like to try this out though so I'll download. I won't be getting on today though because my parents are working on the floors all downstairs, but sometime after maybe tomorrow I'll be back. Looks good though; nice job man!

Wonderful. Simply wonderful. This is amazing and I'm sorry I couldn't be there to test it with you. All you need to do now is fix those bunker walls so you can submit it to Atlas. I'd love to see this in Matchmaking(Cubed=fail).

I like the feel of this map as well as the layout. It is very basic, but many of the most basic maps have the best gameplay. I know that you said that you didn't include aesthetics, but if you have any money, i would like to suggest you making it look more pleasing to the eye. In each of the corners you might want to fix it up a little bit just because you used up a lot of pieces just to make that tall wall. I would recommend keeping the basic design of the corners but just getting rid of the wall and putting something in behind it.

Overall great map-4.7/5

Strangely even with all the path manipulation particularly dealing with divergent paths and incentives, I actually enjoyed the base of the map. It is a simple yet effective layout and is a mini of a map that I was building a while ago... I enjoyed the spikers :)... thank you for the dual wields... :)

FINALLY! Feature feature feature! Hooray! To celebrate, I think Canadians needs to release Contortionist v2.

[Urban Myth]

Congrats man. Like everyone else has said, this really is overdue. I remember playing this on multiple occations and loved it every time, the design is genious, the gameplay rivals that, and it's well forged and nice to look at. Again, congrats!

[MultiLockOn]

Once again to everyone who is viewing this thread, I can't recommend this map enough for Multi Flag BR's. Really, really, consider downloading this.

Thanks Urban, Ill be working on the looks a fair bit in the near future, glad to see you enjoyed the map too. For some reason your mic was out when we played on it, if I remember correctly.

Thanks multi youve probably been the strongest supporter from what I have seen so far. And hush v2 will be out when its out. I dont want to have to do another remake, kinda defeats the purpose.
