A map with rather original gameplay. Basically it's all about shooting down the enemy flag so it can fall to your hands and prevent the other team to do the same. I don't know how it works because testing with bots is impossible. So I want you people to check if it works fine :)

I think it will work quite good in dodge ball also, but i have never played this mode so..

Design looks very unique. I'd check this out, but I can't host and as you said, "testing with bots is impossible."

Well, you can always shoot the flag if you like :) , but bots don't have waypoints so they will only sit there and try to kill you...

It's visually striking, but I don't think it'll play well from the looks of it. The map is just too small to make the act of flag pushing much of a real gameplay strategy. The lack of out-of-bounds protection is disappointing, and all I see this ending up is as a spray fest. People will go outside, spray, duck-and-hide for a reload, and repeat. This might be decent with maybe four players, but I think it'll be chaos with eight or more.

Nonetheless, I just sent FLAB an e-mail for another server. Never got to use my !Elite Party map remakes. :( I'll throw this map on the server once it's set up, since it suits the theme of the server. :) Unfortunately, I don't see this playing well, only serving to be a concept map and little more. Don't take offense, as I made a lot of bad, unplayable maps when trying to experiment, particularly with the same idea of having to push the flag to score. :)

Edit:

Played it as a two-vs-two match, and it was pretty nice. I liked it enough to put it in rotation on the !Elite Party server [ u13.net:30201 ]. My only gripes with the map remain the lack of OB guard objects andthe flags getting stuck into the polygons, making them impossible to knock out. The Alpha flag got stuck to the point where my teammate had to manually grab it, going all around the map to enter the other side. I just don't see that happening in a five-vs-five game. :P

In the old times when PolyWorks didn't even exist I have made such a cubic map. Here you have a  screen of it and you can download it here.

You're silly. I'm hardly "advertising," as I've said those maps are garbage and only posted them trying to show the OP other flag pushing map ideas. Likewise, how am I "unpolite" when I've included his map on my server in rotation?
