    Thunder Road is the debut of the new game variant, MongQuest. This fun new game is a mixture between conquest and mongoose racing. The object is to try to score as many flags as possible before the time runs out! Look out though, the defending team will keep a sharp eye out to make sure their goods are not tampered with. Drive, run & shoot your way to victory in this zany new mongoose game! Great for large parties. The action never stops! Conspire with your team and come up with the best strategy to conquer your opponents. Capture the flag with style. Sudden death has been enabled for last minute, tense captures. Enjoy the game & post any comments or suggestions you may have. Thanks!

    Oh wow, you posted this. I remember trying this out with you, it was actually very fun. It actually takes teamwork because of the fact that you need a driver to score the flag faster. It seems like a unique game and is very fun to play with a nice size party. Though to make it a little better for the drivers, maybe add some obstacles or mini tunnels to give some protection. Nonetheless it's a good map and will be keeping this on my hardrive.

    Whoa!

    I have to say, I'm quite impressed... quadruple wide... no way! I think the idea of a conquest type mongoose game is really awesome. When Spactac. and slik went to go test it w/ u, and they all left the party, I was sitting there thinking wow, I wish they woulda invited me... Then Slik came back saying how amazing it was, and I became very jealous. I will download this, and test it out. I still dont see how it is played though, I read the description... I dont play conquest much, so that's prolly why. Good job, 4/5. I'm not sure why, But I've never been a fan of those red thin wooden bridge triangle tunnel things... idk why. they just look rough to me... that's really the only BAD thing I see here... good job.

    *looks at clock*

    "wow, that took my 5 minutes to type... I should probably stfu right now. byw"

    Hey i'm a fan of Conquest! If its anything like Conquest, this could be a hit. I wish you explained the gametype a bit more though so I'd know what kind of party to try it with. But i'll try and get a game going anyway. If I like it, I'll be back...

    Thanks, I hope you like the game. The defending team is up top and they must shoot down onto the track to stop the thief's from stealing the flag. There are also a few nades & power ups to make things interesting! Let me know if anyone gets a chance to play this in a big party. I am curious to see how it holds up.

    Cra-za-zy. This map it neato! My main point of constructive criticism is that the defenders don't have cover (well, they're in the sky, but still...), as the attackers can still shoot the defenders. But 5/5 concept, 3/5 designing, and 4/5 crafting from me. Great job!

    Great concept and design, and I'm trying to organize a large party and then get back to you on how it will play. From what I have read about the game, it sounds pretty cool and I'll have to check it out, and I'm glad you didn't get too lazy and just make the attackers road all straight and boring. Good job

    Cool, I was looking for a map that could hold a lot of people (even though I already have tons, one more is not a bad thing :]). Very nice idea, you definitely have a download from me. Only thing I have to comment about is spawn killing, which looks very easy.

    Well, being able to kill in any location is part of the game. The ammo is limited, so you must use strategy to plan your attack. The flag capture point is in the spawn, so if you need to get kills near the spawn, that is the only way to stop the flag carrier.

    this map looks good, gameplay wise. the aesthetics could defenatly use a touch up, i mean all the map is, is a road with blocks on the side for the defenders. i like the new idea for the game but i just think you couldve added some more stuff into it for better aesthetics.



    oh i was also wondering if i could use this idea, racing on mongoose to capture something while the defenders off to the side try to stop them, cuz i got a goooood idea i just want to know if its alright if i use the concept haha

    Sure, you can use the idea.. I would like to see what you come with. I know the map is lacking some aesthetics. I wanted to keep it simple and focus more on the game play. Thanks.

    + Addictive and fun gameplay
    + Gets people who normally hate CTF having a great time (such as myself)
    + Good selection of weapons, all of which where not overpowering, especially since the sniper doesnt respawn often

    - Can get a little repetitive
    - You have to jump off to place the trip mine and the other equipment (I think it was a flare) anywhere near the middle

    Score: 7.5/10

    Wow, a 7.5 I am not just saying this because it's my map, but I feel that it deserves a higher score than that. The trip mine is not supposed to be thrown in the middle. That is why there are portals to take you to the other side and there are trip mines on both sides. Thanks for the review though, I guess.
