I'm been pretty bored with Forge for the past couple of days and haven't had any ideas. I love to play infection a lot so I'm wondering if you guys got any good ideas. I've tried to make plenty of maps, but left some of them unfinished because I simply cannot "Get the feel for the map". So, any ideas would be apprieciated. Thanks
Well the main reason I'm commenting on this is because it has no responses, and I just think that's unfair. Therefore, my ideas may not be the best. You'll want to do something new, which means no camping in houses, no overpowered bases to camp in, no long journey to move objects while one-shot zombies chase after you. No slow and strong zombies, and no fast and weak zombies. My vote is that both humans and zombies should take multiple hits, enforcing teamwork. Perhaps make a linear map that incorporates the map geometry. Make it scary. Scary is good.
First of all, let me thank you for comenting on this where no one has. Ok, well, I really like your suggestions and I am starting to make a map. This map includes a VIP escort style gameplay that involves a large tunnel they must go through. So first off, the escorts and VIP respawn in a room and they have 2 minutes to choose their weapons before a kill ball respawns. Then, they go through the tunnel avoiding zombie traps and stuff until they reach the end with a hornet and fly to the top. But, thanks for replying.
Sounds fun. So long as it is aesthetically appealing and balanced it sounds like a really fun game. If you're not already, make sure that the zombies come from all angles. If you need help testing when its done, send me a message.
I'm going to give the map some very nice aesthetic features so don't worry. I'll try to see when I can finish it. I think I've made it very balanced though zombies and human both can take multiple hits before going down and vehicle usage is only limited to the custom powerup which turns you into an Elite Spartan Escort allowing you to drive.
It'd be interesting if the custom power-up only let you drive for 10 seconds. It'd insure that you wouldn't be able to drive everyone, but not too far either. If it lasts a while, it won't be bad, the tunnel will need to be pretty long. But I really like where this is going. I'll be happy to help forge it, so long as I don't need to ghost merge. I've done far too much, my thumbs have started hurting, haha.
Yeah the tunnel is going to be long with some debris ghost merged into the side of the walls looking like it collapsed in. The power to drive would only last for around 1 minute or longer because I was going to make the powerup allow one guy to become an Elite Spartan Escort. There would be sewage tunnels only for zombies to get through and come from underneath or from above.
Wow sound really fun if you need help testing it pm me or send me a friend request my gamertag is sora0314
Alright, when I get to the testing point i'll let you guys be one of the first to test it. Thanks for all the good feedbacks! Progress is really slow I have to ghost-merge all this stuff which gets kinda annoying.
