Updated v1.1 here Hey everyone! Thought I would put this map on here for everyone to play around on and have some fun. It's my most recent serious map and I really hope you all enjoy as much as me and my friends do. This map may look very open at first glance as I tried to break up line of sight over the map as much as possible while still leaving room for the Sniper and Dmr to be viable options. This is an assymetrical map that will be hopefully get some nice feedback so I may make a few improvements and max out its potential. Items on this map include: 2x Sniper (8 bullets each, 110 sec respawn) 1x Shotgun (110 sec) 1x Energy Sword (110 sec) 8x Dmr (30 sec) 1x Plasma Repeater (30 sec) 2x Concussion Rifle (30 sec) 4x Plasma Pistol (30 sec) 16x Frag Grenade 14x Plasma Grenade 3x Health Packs 1x Overshield (120 sec) And also to mix it up a bit... 1x Secret Room containing 1x Each Armor ability and 1x Health Pack (essentially free respawn) Now for a few Screenshots to show you the Layout... Blue 'Base' Red 'Base' Gold side Green side + Sword Spawn Overshield spawn
Hidden rooms, along with other "hidden", "secret" or hard to find power ups are a generally bad idea for any competitive maps. The best maps are those that have all power positions and power weapons in easy to find (but not neccesarily easy to get to) locations. Also, consider increasing the respawn times on the Sword, Shotgun and Sniper to a reasonable number. Something between 90 and 150 seconds is a good time for most power weapons.
The 'secret' room is nothing more then a chance to change armor abilities and heal midbattle without a death involved. its not over powered aside from the couple of abilities not on the load outs(hologram/evade if unchanged). At first it was a camping room for the oddball but after a few games realizing the name of the game was grab the sword, shotgun, and ball then head there i placed a soft kill in it for oddball only. and yes i had a feeling even the sniper with only 8 bullets and 60 seconds before it starts to spawn it was still a bit overpowered. e/ Increased Power Weapon spawn times to 110 seconds and added a bit more color onto the map.
