SWAT map ideas

Please don't double post. Instead edit your post if you have anything to add.

I see your problem already. SMGs. SWAT dosen't have SMGs.
Some starting weapons in SWAT are the Magnum, Battle Rifle, Covanent Carbine, and Shotgun. Weapons placed on a map, in regular SWAT (not ShWATguns, or SWAT Magnums) is the Carbine and grenades.

 

It mostly boils down to weapon placement. Carbines, BRs and grenades should be the only weapons on a SWAT map.

 

well i personally think that SWAT maps should have more cover so you don't get 1 shoted as soon as you spawn. And try to make the map smooth because in SWAT you are pretty much screwed if you jump.

 

You actually get saved more if you jump rather if you just run. It screws up a guy's aim.

 

Bluejayfan94, I agree with you. And as you come around a corner, you want to jump if you are not sure if people are over there, that way you can make it a tougher shot for them. as for ideas... i'm not sure. I love SWAT, and I play it a lot, and i'd love to see some community maps for SWAT. I'll be making one on sandbox for you all, and i think that spawn is key here. As someone said before, you get spawn killed a lot in SWAT, so i plan to have wide spread spawns, but not too far. I think that more cover is needed too. But... idk. just my opinion.

I made a thread about it, post in it please to add to the guide!

 

you should just make a normal map and the convert it into a swat map it gets your mind off of making a swat map and just puts it on making a map without the hassel of making everything pefect

 

I was just gonna post that most SWAT Bungie maps Originated off of MLG. They all have good cover and all they had to do was switch the weapons out for the different game.

 

Better be big then. (Thats what she said) because you don't want to walk one step and get shotdown.

 

Forged maps and SWAT don't really mix. Only default maps are suitable for SWAT IMO. It's possible to forge a good one though if you really know what you are doing.

EDIT: Never mind, I totally forgot about Sandbox. I will be getting it in few days thankfully. But yeah, you could do something in Sandbox. Just make it big, with as few jump-ups as possible. Make it smooth, with good lines of sight. Not too crowded, not too open. And it NEEDS to have decent spawns.
