Okay. I see why you ran into memory limits and why the map is that large in terms of filesize...
Normal mapping, reflecting water, high res textures, env maps and a ton of custom models.
I'm fairly certain you included close to all visual tricks there are in ET
Because of the filesize, I assume this map is more a playground for you to test all those features rather than a map that is intended for actual play?
Because in regards to gameplay, I think it might be very easy to camp things. The allied spawn has only one exit for example. It looks good with all those plants, no doubt, but from a gameplay perspective it's probably easy for the Axis to shut that route down. Also the objective room also has only one entrance and I only found one (max two) routes inside the casino to get around. From a gameplay perspective, I would assume that map becomes a slaughterhouse.
From a technical/visual standpoint, I have to congratulate you to all those effects. It looks like you created a successful playground testing all those features and I'm sure you learned a lot about mapping and the ET engine while creating this map. Good work.
