Player Maps
Posted: Sun Jul 16, 2006 5:08 am
Thought I'd start a topic for comments and suggestions about any of the new maps done by some of our very own players.
It's all about feedback...so post what you like...don't like...would like to see added...or simply cool ideas that pop into your head that you'd like to see implemented in any of the maps.
Just off the top of my head...
I think kudos need to go out to Paintball for all of his hard work revising his map. The final version with the moving bunker portals and working coms are a true testament to all of the time and effort that he put into refining his original idea. And the music is the type that you'll find yourself humming for weeks. Tequilla...!
A recent addition to the player maps that I had the pleasure of playing just tonight is Nard's map (sorry can't remember all the map names...it's past midnight here). It was visually just really interesting to play...lots of things to look at and nice balance between big rooms, corridors, and smaller rooms.
Textures were really nice and even looked great on my computer which is at the lowest graphic settings. There were so many visual surprises to look at, that it never got boring for me like some other maps sometimes become.
Also, the monster spawn points and paths seemed to work really well. Monsters "wandered" about naturally and were spread out throughout the map. No hiding out in a room and going AFK to take a quick leak on this map. :D
Only thing I could think of to perhaps put it over the top is maybe secret rooms (i'm partial to secret rooms)...oh yeah..and maybe some Boobies...yes...definitely some Boobies would be a good addition.
All in all I'd have to give both maps "4 Paws" up for enjoyment and playability.
Keep up the good work guys.
