It's full bright.

From the screen shot alone you need to work on your lighting and texturing.

The roof texture is the same as the walls, pretty slack.

The map also appears full bright yet I can see some red and blue lights, what's up with that?

If you want us to 'disregard the fact that it is an aim map', that means 'disregard potential gameplay', right? Right.

Architecture: It's small, blocky and has no unique detail. Crates do NOT count. 0/5
Lighting: None. (Must say I'm also confused about how you've got red and blue lights is what appears to be a fullbright map.) 0/5
Texturing: Five textures that I can see, all of which are largely repeated, andare not complimented by the brushwork at all. 0/5
Ambience: I can't say, because I haven't checked. But I'm guessing none.
Gameplay: aim map. 0/5

So yeah, there's your critical reception. Being an aim map is no excuse to be slack on the visuals. Your other maps are better (obviously, seeing as this one is a first map).

Sorry for the late reply guys.

Actually, the full brightness was done by adding many lights in a reduced area, and the red and blue lights are just done by changing the coloring and again adding many lights. They are to mark the spawn points, and was actually done to test how lighting worked. As I said, it's one of my first maps ever created, so it was done poorly.

@Scotch What meant to say by 'disregard the fact...' is because on other forums and sites I visited, most users HATE aim maps. I prefer them for quick encounters at the local internet café.

Also, the interesting point of the map (if at all interesting) is the floor. As some of you probably found out, some parts of the floor are actually func illusionary entities (that's why there are the 'danger' signs).
