Make the buildings really tall in the Downtown part. Add cars to use a shields, add lamposts, and make the background like water or the beach or maybe a picture (Soldat-ish) of other buildings (existing). Oh yeah make the building occupy-able (to use as bunkers). Overall: I can see this/these map(s) to be one of the greatest ever built! I LOVE IT! PLEASE PM IF YOU GOT THE MAP PACK DONE! CAN'T WAIT! AMAZING !

Those buildings (and that car) is too small compared to the soldat.

[Wraithlike]

Dude, I love the Amoeba on Haight, you need to make the buildings taller, and bigger.

But you get Uber-points for adding the Amoeba on Haight.

edit above - added screeny of what i've got workin on the Beach side, for anyone who's been to the Beach Shalet.

i'ma make the haight buildings a bit bigger, but not too much - i'm workin on limited space before this becomes an unreasonably long map

diggin the enthusiasm.  keep the suggestions commin

[swebonny]

Make the backrounds darker, so you can see your bullets.

[Shadow G-Unit]

Change the background.

[crackadillicus]

y'all talkin background background? or scenery background?

[Shadow G-Unit]

Scenery Background

[Wraithlike]

For the background, stand in the crosswalk from Haight to I the park, take a picture, scan it, make it scenery. and align the roads in you map

[SoulSnipa]

would be cool if u didnt use scenery, but u used a texture for the waterfall and all that.

likin where you're goin with that

might cruise over there tomorrow and take a pic

would be cool if u didnt use scenery, but u used a texture for the waterfall and all that.

i might try and mess around with somethin for the water itself so's you could go behind it, but unless i can get it lookin really really good, i think i'ma steer clear of that
