Map Overview

Orange_X is a community-made Symmetrical Control Point map released in 2007. It consists of a base for each team, an open second Control Point for each team, and a central Point located on a tower in the middle. Unlike other Symmetrical Control Point maps, Orange_X doesn't set a limited time for the teams to win; the control points may remain either captured or not for as long as the map lasts.

Most Orange maps are known for their lack of textures and/or lack of obstacles, along with Control Points that have exceptionally long cap times, which encourages players to simply fight in a "deathmatch" style setting.

Variations

Many different variations and revisions of Orange exist, including versions with more props and/or textures, different theming, slightly different layouts or spawn room modifications, different lighting/time of day, or different weather, such as snow or rain.
