gmodparkourmap is a bad map in many ways and should be removed. Here's why:
1. there's no boundaries so if you use a fast vehicle in a map this small, you just go over the edge.
2. its extremely bland and uninteresting. there's actually more stuff going on in the street than on the roofs, which is where most of the action should be happening.
3. since we only use wheatleys parkour, this map barely has any place to use it correctly since its more about jumping long distances than wall running or jumping over things.
4. if you move to the wrong location, you can have all your weapons stripped. that's what a pvp server needs, a map that takes all your guns away.
5. As I mentioned earlier, its really small. The roofs are generic and simple and don't offer anything for a parkour map. And the street is very cramped so using a vehicle is a pain. you can maybe get through one street when using it. (in fact there is only one street) It may be the better part of the map, but its still as bland as everything else.
6. I counted 2 interior rooms. (If there's more I didn't see any). seriously, theres a fancy room on a roof and a bar on the street. everything else is just a boring landscape.
side note: here's a better explanation by comparing maps.
-goldencity: the interiors are scattered throughout the map. they may be small and some are cramped, but they all have a style to them rather than just a boring look. The outside is massive with plenty of roads, so if you don't care for the inside, you can still have fun outside.
-protobuild: it has one interior but it has multiple levels, different rooms, lots of places to hide, a secret location.
-mobenix: loads of small buildings that all have a different feel and design that makes them unique and useful.
I think this map should just be removed. if there are better parkour maps you can find, post them here so we can have a replacement.
