htf_sandstone (V1.1 Now waypointed by KC)

htf_sandstone
By: ultraman

Description: My first map in quite a while. Based off Vig's htf_onix (which was never finished, let alone released, so please don't flame me for plagarism). Big credits to Mistercharles for his input (the idea/theme) and Keron Cyst for additional input/feedback, and the layout. Supports HTF, DM, RM, TDM etc. Scenery

Waypoints: Even though I can waypoint now,  I really couldn't be bothered this time -_-

Enjoy, download(s) attached.



UPDATE: Keron Cyst waypointed it and fixed the scenery a bit, I fixed some more scenery as well.

I really like that spawnpoint arrangement. It could be even better, but so far it's the best out of all the recent HTF maps so far.

All those same junglefloras and trees look rather boring. :P Perhaps horizontally flipping some of them would add more variation.

Heh, maybe I lost the knack for scenery placement while trying to focus on the spawn placement/gameplay elements. Now that I think of it, there are too many trees. I'll do an update soon :>

like KC said, the map definitly leaks variation. apart from that it looks promising gameplaywise, and you applied some good shading & stretching.
I like to have one Martini
Two at the very most
Three I'm under the table

I'm very impressed with your stretching and shading, although the borders aren't as great as the interior. However, I'm not a big fan of floating polys without supports. The layout seems suited for hold the flag quite well. Also, it'd compliment the aesthetics if you'd add sceneries the the top, bare border. I'd give you a four out of five.
