CTF_spacefactory
« on: June 16, 2006, 05:50:21 am »
By making this map I wanted something new, I wanted to maximise the movements and to do a huge map, not a 6 or 8 persons, after all, there's plenty of full servers, with 16 players
here's that it looks like:

blue side

red side

red base

some asteroids

polygons: 3665
sceneries: 500 (stars, arrows, reactors and jump pads, except the stars, were made by my friend MadVince)
players: 12-16, can be less with fast and skilled players
not waypointed: I just can't see how to waypoint such a map
info: for the jumppads to be efficients, you got to walk on them, it does not do it by itself, you got to go to the left or the right while colliding the middle of the pads, it seems a bit wierd but it's easy when you know it.

So, what do you think of my first public map?

That's gigantic.  The same idea but smaller might be nice, although I don't see people playing Rambo_6's Ctf_pitfall anymore -- and your map is incredibly similar to his.

Why don't you set up a server and see how people like this map or at least let us download it so we can really check it out?

err, I got a server, but a private one for my friends only, when we're enough, it's awesome, but when we're less than 7, no way to play it well :/ for the download, I just forgot >_<, i'm adding it right now

That's the biggest map I've ever seen!  :o

I agree with VijchtiDoodah, make a smaller version with the same idea.

Still, it could be okay for the people who like massive open maps.

WTF is going on in there?

The idea is nice, and the map is huge.  Make it smaller, por favor.

With the jump pads you can go from a base to another really fast.

This is looking like one of the best space maps made, but I agree with others when I say "make a smaller version."  You know its a little big when you use two screenshots for an overview.
And still with the jump pads it still is a little big.

The design of it seems void of any sort of design...

A factory in space?! Ridiculous!

Anyways I think it seems pretty good for your first released map.  You seem to have grasped most of the concepts of map making fairly well... except making a nice layout :P Good job I think if you practiced a bit more you could be really good :D

That thing is insanely humongous. It's impossible to waypoint (as any bots who get entangled in a fight while jetting from one asteroid to another will deviate off-course easily), but it's not a very bad concept... it just exaggerates the idea too much IMO, heh :P Keep it up.

This map could be really fun to play on a 16-32 player server (as u mentioned) but it seems that people doesnt really want to.... and thats a shame. But if ur holding a server with this map, let me know, might gather some people to join me and try something different for a change
