    Well, I've been working on a map all day now and its evolving into something with three major bases, and I was wondering if someone has actually made a map built for only 3 teams.

    I don't have any pictures because I'm lazy and I don't have computer access right now but anyone that has any ideas or whatever is free to throw them up, seeing as this is something really new to me and I think it could really stand out if I get some input from the community... If you really want to see it just message me on xbox live, my gt is reigning chaos. Thank you and I will make an actual map preview when I have more done and actual screenshots, so this thread is primarily for discussing it and brainstorming some ideas.

    Ok, cool, I was hoping that nobody has done it yet. I should have a bit of the second base done by tomorrow afternoon. And no, its not in the skybubble, and yes its on the ground floor + 3 hogs and 6 mongeese =D, the gametype I have setup is team brs with synchronised team spawning and 3 second respawn.

    3 Hogs? Doesn't that sound like a bit too much?

    that sounds like a pretty orginal idea. If you have testing for this map I would love to join.

    >MousseMooseRocks: Well its 3 hogs or no hogs because I don't want one team to be **** out of luck just cuz they don't have a hog and never will, and on a map that's looking very vehicle accessable I'm leaning towards the hogs, but if they do tend to be too much that'll change to (probably) 3 choppers and 3 mongeese for vehicles.

    >Crypto nv:
    This definitely is going to need testing to make sure it works fine, so ill keep you in mind when that time comes rolling around.

    >Captn STFU:
    Ill get home from school round 3:30 pst so yeah, I should be online shortly after that.

    I've always wanted to make a three team map and just haven't got around to it yet. I'll be keeping an eye on this. Hope it turns out well. :)

    I know Jeef's working on a 3-way symmetrical map, though he's making it for FFA and Multi-Team.

    Ask him about it.

    I made a 3ball map before called triangulation.. basically, it was like rotationally symmetrical but not aswell.. i dunno.. there were 3 bases and one central type triangular tower (the bases were also triangle shaped along with the whole overall shape of the map hence the name)

    but yeah, that tripped and fell flat on its face, so i sent it to the recycle bin to get better..

    Well, I dunno about jeefs I haven't asked him but this is going to be assymmetric and not triangley. Mainly everything either lined up with the grid or its at a 45 degree angle to it, so it makes the one base I have nearly done look cool. I hope I don't have to scrap this project because its looking cool... Originally the idea came from wondering what 3 team capture the flag would be like, but to my stupidity I realised there's only two teams in ctf so my pondering went over to 3 team slayer.

    Btw, which name sounds better? Nidhogg or Chimera?

    Yeah Ace, I was just about to say that.
    It is tri-symmetric(I guess that's a word).

    I believe the term would be "rotational symmetry"... Something my map has none of.

    So which is better, nidhogg or chimera?

    i like chimera. it would be cool to make a 3ball gametype where only the ball handlers can kill, except assasinations. and no points for holding the ball.
    is three the most balls you can put on a map?

    Team. Like 9 players, the balls spawn at their own base. This way vehicles can be used and stuff. It seems interesting to me.

    That actually does sound interesting, I certainly will try to incorporate that, thank you.
