    Base map: Sandbox (Crypt)

    Gametypes: Slayer (SPAWNS WON'T WORK OTHERWISE)

    Players: 1-16

    Description
    Sunken Skate Park is my latest map to be released, some of you may have already seen/played this because I released it on Youtube a couple of weeks ago, but I've only just round to posting it on here. This is a skate park created in the crypt of Sandbox and it features many jumps, ramps, and other fun new things. This map is just for messing around on, its a fun way to pass some time if you have nothing else to do with your friends.

    Video
    I strongly reccomend you watch the video as it helps you get a feel for the map alot easier than pictures, and you can also subscribe if you wish to se my latest maps upon completion.

    Important Notes


    • This map is just for fun
    • This map must be played on the 'Slayer' gametype
    • There are several teleporter located around the map for quick acces back up to the spawn
    • There are also mongooses located in every corner incase you lose your original!

    Well thats basically it, please let me know what you think and give me some constructive criticism. Thank you.

    Make it compatible with King of the Hill and, optionally, VIP, and I'll be able to give it a better review. But until then, it's just a mess-around map (They all get old after like 5 minutes).

    This definetly wont get old in 5 minutes. The only thing I see a problem with is the grind rail because you jump over it and not on it. I guess you could just slow down slightly. The video would be better if the camera didnt keep spinning around so much.

    As I suggested to Doog Nit when he first came out with DoogNitized, it would be better if you made a VIP variant with destination points. He added this to his map and it worked out really well. This is just an extra feature, but it gives people more of a reason to play, not just because their bored and want to waste time, but because they want some form of competition or challenge. I think it's superb right now, however, and you managed to pull it off really well.

    No. Don't delete the effects. Effects are awesome. I am tired of people complaining about effects. Get a better TV. As for the map it looks amazing! I think you guys are missing the point of the map. It is a fun map for people who like staking and it's just to ramp around and do tricks. There is not really a reason to put VIP points on this map. I wish you all would post comments about the map and not your opinion on how you would have forged the map. Half of these comments are spam, and are good for nothing. Don't listen to them man. The map looks great and I am a fan of skate parks. I will DL and rip around this baby to try some of the stunts. Great work!

    It looks great and no don't delete the effects.....The half pipes and really just everything in general look really well forged and very smooth. Although a vip variant could be crazy, have the last destination in some crazy high spot or something.

    Thanks Dream! lmao its the same problem about the FX that everyone has, and I think the same as you, TURN YOUR BRIGHTNESS UP!!! :D You are right, I didn't want this map to be a competitive style map, its just supposed to be a laid-back, fun thing to do with a few friends.

    Thank you all for the possitive feedback, I will consider creating a VIP gametype, but I wouldn't count on it because it goes against the whole idea of the map lol :D

    I played the map, and the fx don't effect anything at all.

    What is the flipper supposed to do, because i never flipped?

    Halfpipe isn't quite a halfpipe. It's a quarterpipe.
