Colbrax1996 submitted a new map: Glacial - Large btb snow terrain map designed around vehicle movement but while still being fair to spartans. Read more about this map...
Hey man, I just finished checking the map out. I was gonna write a review but I decided a comment would be better for this map first. I feel the map has potential. Tons of it. The layout is decent and the premise is there but the map is a Forge Tease. On many occasions I found myself saying "Is that it?" or "Is there more?" You have several forerunner-esque structures on the map that could very well pass as entrances to something bigger or interior builds. But they don't. The biggest problem that the map is very very open. Without the incentive of power weapons to seek out, players will naturally attempt to escape the long sightlines and vehicle alleys. There is nowhere for them to go. My advice is to either create a part of the map that allows players sanctum from these places or redesign your cover and pathing in a way that seperates vehicles and players. Please keep me posted, I liked the premise but I feel you can still do more with it.
Thanks man, I'm still actually trying to discover out ways to add more safe infantry areas. The base idea is great and tbh. I didn't even think about it. Thanks for the comment, any constructive criticism is appreciated.
Ran into a small problem with your suggestions as this is a vehicle based map. If I add to much infantry exclusive areas then It looses that vehicle focus. When I play test, the cover seems fine but I might turn the Cliffside on the left more into a structure. The weapon spawns work as its a rocket and sniper but maybe I can add another explosive I guess. Maybe plasma pistols. Might replace mantis with the wasp which could help infantry a bit as the mantis is a bit strong at times but the hog doesn't last long unless it keeps moving. Maybe we could playtest online so you can better explain but yeah. Now people do run out and have those three outposts to hold down relatively well but I dunno. Kinda wanna run playtest to test out further what exact areas need more work. I do like your suggestions and I'm looking into adding more infantry holdouts
