[MAP] Blue's Maps (Page 2 of 2)

Blue, I will host your maps if you would allow me to.

Ok do you have skype? I can send you a message when they are up

A short review for a ctf-maps: no mistakes done in actual pickup-placement and graphics, structure of the map is good in total, still i can find a lot of mistakes. First of all, movement on the map seems to be problematic: some ways and turns do not allow you to get high enough speed. Some places are just empty and need to be filled up with some kind of platforms or additional walls. The base structure seems to be ok at rainysmth, but oasis got a trouble with it: making the only possible way to get the flag is a bad idea, it makes def to just lock attackers in there and spam with grenades. And yeah, structure: try to not make linear maps, good map, even 3v3, needs more than 1 way between the bases.

Stay wild

The fact that the map is official doesn't yet make it good. I actually hate both ctf3 and 5, but i like ctf2 and 4. ctf3 is especially bad for the reasonn that the whole base is lower than the only exit. Respawning def just block you from the top and makes leaving a really hard task.

Yes, defenders will lock them very often, cause good tema will always put one defender near the flag, and he won't miss an opportunity to make an easy kill.

I'm too lazy to show that places on your screenshots, but i can tell you: both ways to leave the base to the middle gonna slow you down without using rocketjumps. Empty place gives you no possibilities to dodge, so you have two ways: lose the speed, fall on the ground and become able to dodge, or don't lose it and become an easy target. I'm sure people gonna choose first.

Stay wild

Maybe thats the point .. ctf3 is unique. The question is wether it is bad just because it is unique instead of following the standards you would set. If you want to discuss on official maps further, do so in another topic pls, even if I lead the discussion into this direction

But var is right that my oasis has a boring structure at some points, because it is shaped in a strictly linear way with basically only two height levels and a bad structure at the bases. This will lead to imbalances as you said.

I'm too lazy to fix this because this would mean to do the entire map again from scratch. And I think you can also have a lot of fun on this map as it is now. But you motivated me to try another little ctf map.
