What kind of map?

Post by **Hirchart** » Sat Dec 13, 2003 5:16 am

city maps.. maps like act2 and act3 are really my favorite, but COLT, greatest map ever I think, great m4 map.. under the lighthouse is also kinda fun, but kinda campy.. ehm, and all urban maps are good..

I've just created a small and simple CTF map.

Take a look and let me know what you think.

Also, some tips for CTF maps would be nice. Tell us mappers what you want!

In a CTF map, I would like at least two ways to get to the flag. One is the easy way, and the most used way. This way would be the easiest to defend against. The other way would be harder to reach the flag. A series of hard jumps or something.

The map needs to be a good map for autos and snipers allike.

Both bases would have to be round about the same, but not identical because that would be boring.

I wouldn't like to see the map too big, nor too small.

I dunno what else, I'll think of more things when I'm bored.

Thanks for the feedback Clowneh!

Here's a beta of the map (Nothing special) because I have problems compiling lately.

Eeek! that goes for my map. identical on both sides. I thought it would be most fair if I made it that way.

What am I meant to do with a .map file?

looks good flunx

my ideas:

1: put some boxes/crates here for cover, so this map wont be a snipe-own-m4 map.

2: mayby some trees here? Make this section a bit bigger?

I took a look on the screenshots and some improvements would be nice. first, more details. that looks kinda boring. secondly, make it larger.

(yes, I did notice you saying that it's a beta version. still thought it would be good to mention since some (even new) maps are boring.)

What about making a new topic for this map, I thought this topic was meant for mapping ideas instead of feedback on a beta map

Great!

Whops! That wasn't supposed to be the .map file! hehe. I'll fix it later.

I'll start another thread about this map tomorrow because I'm getting a bit drunk atm.

And again, thanks for all the wonderful feedback guys!
