The gameplay on your maps is really nice, good for about 3 players a group. But you should improve the graphics, it looks really boring. I would use better background.

thx for the opinnion, maybe in future I will try to use better graphic in the maps. Also I think that graphic isnt so much important as gameplay, its just interesting addon :>

sry cant agree with your opinion. i HATE these run-maps with its gray design, and even if you chose the color brown, it doesnt motivate me to try the map, even if the gameplay may be good. a map with a good gameplay is a boring map, if its graphic is boring. but you shouldnt forget that a map with a good graphic is boring either, if its gameplay sucks. so a map is only as good as the worse part of it (graphic or gameplay). so you cant say its an addon....its a part!

Re: [MAP] skynet1/2/3/4/5

hmmm i see 3 opinions and in whole 3 complains about graphic. Prolly in future i should take care of it.

I want to add that map with their own original graphic take more size than map like this, whats more sometimes graphic can be annoying. For example it can be too bright or colorful, so you have to make a real good one. So that you have to have some graphic skill which i havent big_smile

skill isnt something you cant learn! tongue
and as i already said: a map is only as good as the graphic looks like. and...
no background (really bad) -> bad map
a background of a "newcomer" (not that good but not really bad either) -> better map as before

so, even if you arent skilled with graphics (and you dont need to draw your own tilesets etc, you can find many with google) you can only improve your map.
