    This is my newest map and it is most probs one of my favorite one so far. It is based on the move Avatar and is set in the scene when the Avatars fight up against the Humans in the Floating Mountains of Pandora.

    The objective of the game is that the Humans have to protect the dropship from the Avatars and there Birds (banshees). The Humans spawn with a Rocket launcher and the Avatars have a SMG, there is 2 weapons in the dropship that only the Humans can pic up wich is a Sniper Rifle and a Battle Rifle.


    I hope you like it and please enjoy thanks zM TRiLoGY x

    Video Coming Soon!

    Interesting idea, but seems like it would get boring quick. The dropship looks really good. Well done. Do the humans have some kind of access to those hornets, or are they just for show?

    and this should be posted in the casual section.

    No the hornets are only for show not to be used but i have updated the map so the the avatars have 1 passenger hornet like in the movie just to help the avatars out a bit more and make it more realistic.

    Aw, darn, you beat me to it! I was going to make an Infection game where the humans spawned inside the Dragon gunship and got attacked by Banshees from up above in the mountains! Oh well. Anyway, great map. What is the dropship from, though? I didn't see it anywhere in the movie. Also, what's stopping the zombies from grabbing one of the Hornets? It looks like you could squeeze them out easily.

    i know but i made it as big and as detailed as i could to keep the authenticnes still.
    and that is the ship that they fight in the floating moutains of pandora and its the **** that blows up the big tree.
    p.s i updated the map so the avatars have a transporter hornet like in the film as well.

    You only have three islands? You should have as many as possible! This map is incredibly small!

    Size > Gameplay > Aesthetics

    Always!

    Why did you make the dropship from ALIEN. Were you just making a joke?

    OK before I review, I want to tell you two things about the movie.


    SPOILER ALERT!


    1. They are called the Na'vi, the reason it is call avatar is because the person changes his body when he cryosleeps, therefore changing his AVATAR (Alter Ego).

    2.They had way more choppers than that, use the passenger ones as well.

    K then now to the map...

    Pros

    I like the mountains of pandora, very nice.
    The idea of hornets around the outside was great.
    The warship looks quite nice and detailed.

    Cons

    The warship never had a hangar, it was another ship that tried martyrdom.
    You could have gave the ship chaingun turrets or rockets to give it a bit more feel as a warship.
    More choppers, you have 4 more at your disposal, use them!
    Warship looks flat.
    No official gameplay, more aesthetic.

    Final Score: 4.2/5

    You obviously worked hard on this and it is good but you are forgetting some key points and need some actual gameplay.

    Thanks but in the settings the humans carnt get on chain guns or anything like that because other wise they would be able to hyjack everyone and it would mess up the game play. Im going to be honest its not the best or funnest map to play on but its somthing that just had to be made.

    i'm pretty sure a turret is a weapon, not vehicle... but i know what you mean on WARTHOG chain guns... but just turrets would work fine

    no it dont if you download the map it has been updated there is a chain gun in the back and you can only get it by knocking it off :\ i put a chain gun in the **** pit befor but it was pointless because you couldnt use it :\

    oh well, just knocking it off is fine, just so long as it has a decent respawn time as you can run out of ammo

    The dropship you're thinking of is from Aliens, which does look a lot like the ships from Avatar. Just remember that both movies were directed by James Cameron.

    The dropship is from the movie ALIEN its a classic never seen it?

    yes i am aware of that but the only ship that even closely resembles that in the movie is the flying fortress thingy all the other ones had rotors on them and looked nothing like that. I was just informing him of his mistake, still looks good though.
