It is so called because when displayed on the list server, MoFo will title it as "Planet MoFo: The Passion Of The <game mode>". It has undergone constant modification and change since it's introduction, though every incarnation of the map has been of the same general format: |

The center cake has been changed to look more '2.0', with the slight change in it's shape, as well as the Planet MoFo FFA logo on the side and an Oscillation Overthruster camping spot. There were also further minor changes to the map in general. It is currently in it's second revision. |

The crosses on the central cake were modified to be slanted, and the middle section of the cake was drivethrough. The 'MoFo in the sky' was modified to be a mesh and flashed red and black. |

This map is quite different and as a result gameplay is slightly different as there was no outer walls to rico off and no GM camping spots (flattened corner pyramids). | |

Recently re-vamped, this map by Sir_Pants is similar to MoFo garage, but is much more playable. Among the added features were the second story beneath the main play area, and jump pads to go from the lower to top level.

Originally, the map was designed for use on more conservative servers, however the map was hosted on a server network known for it's liberalism. This was thought by some to be inappropriate, but the hosts and the author have since come to an agreement over its use and modification. |
