    Hi
    This is Borderline a refreshed version of my earlier map Crossfire.
    The theme for this map would be on the border of two countries that have broken into war. The map is pureley focused on team gameplay and is not set up for ffa. The map was created inlight of my frustration of close quarter sniping matches on the team snipers playlist, so i wanted a map that was more focused on longer range sniping.

    This new version features a walkway bridge. This bridge features a glass cover where the objective markers are placed for neutral flag, bomb and KOTH, also a rocket launcher with onlly 2 rockets. At either end there are covered bunkers wich contain a needeler and a plasma grenade.

    [​IMG]

    Also there are 2 mancanons wich are a helpfull means of getting acros when there are no vehicles to jump the broken bridge or the walkway is full of enimies. The mancanons send players to the oposing half of the broken bridge, they are aimed in a way that the players do not loose any sheild.

    [​IMG]

    Each base has cover behind the base to give players some pretection from the warthog. The objective points are on the centrall tower, the flag capture and spawn point is on the roof allong with the bomb but the objective for bomb is on the middle level.

    This map has good symmetry, I like that there is a small covered bridge to walk on, and one that can be jumped with a vehicle. The bases look very nice, I like the raised platforms that need bridges to get up to them. Also what are the weapons, could you put up a weapons, and maybe a vehicle list. I am going to download this and check out the map.

    lol i was there part of the time he was building this, suggesting ideas. i might've even suggested the new bridge... i dont remember anymore. any way, this is a great map for team snipes, i would really reccomend that you play this. oh, and for maniac, one more suggestion (lol), the 1 by 4s on the new bridge look kinda awkward now that i look at it. if you have the budget, i would reccomend replacing them with glass sails or something.

    Love the design! I don't know if it can already do this, but the blown up bridge you should make it to where only cars can make the jump and only people can make it through the smaller side bridge. Seems like an interesting design to put into it! Good map add more cover! :D

    I was starting to get tired of the maps being built there.

    Until I saw this one.

    I mean, it's very unique compared to others here which in complete honesty, are unimaginative and quite frankly poorly built. (Usually)

    Straight up, it's impressive.

    Wow this map is probably the best one ive seen built in that area. But i do have one thing, to me it doesnt seem like there is not a lot of cover to get from one base to the other but other then that the map looks great and seems like you put a lot of hard work in it. Good job.

    Thanks for all your feedback. I did run out of credits building this map so i tried to find a balance between cover and overcrowding the walkway bridge. if you are concerned about exposure to snipers on the bridge i set the snipers to only having 4 rounds and re-spawning every 120 seconds.
