Pylon is a good map for settling those 1-1 duels. It is also good for 2v2 and FFA. Four players is optimum. Six can play but it gets very hectic. Basically I have noticed that some of the non-forgeworld maps have really interesting sections that would make great stand alone maps. Pylon is the first of these I've done. I know it's not a master forge work, but the game play is really good. I've put a kill zone under the spire, added cover, created a drop down to a new level known as the 'energy room', created routes to the roof and of course placed suitable spawn points and weapons. Weapons: 1 rocket launcher (0 spare clips, 120s spawn) 2 DMR (2 spare clips, 30s spawn) 1 needler (2 spare clips, 60s spawn) 1 shotgun (1 spare clips, 60s spawn) 1 concussion rifle (1 spare clip, 60s spawn) 2 needle rifles (2 spare clips, 30s spawn) 2 plasma pistols (30s spawn) 4 frag grenades and 4 plasma grenades (15s spawn) There are ARs and magnums lying about too on the off chance that somebody runs out of ammo. Overview: Man cannon on the left platform, drop down to the rockets on the right. Once you drop down for the rockets, the only way back up is via the 2 blue grav lifts in the energy room (or jet pack!) The energy room. The plasma batteries can give lift campers a nasty surprise. The man cannon platform is one of several routes to the roof. A great map for 1v1. Victor gets the bragging rights!
What?! What ever your talk about was already in the map, also, please no spamming. As for the map, it is pretty interesting that you did it on spire, but by what I can see by the pictures, you didn't really put much effort into it. please post more pics besides the spire itself and using a map that is almost all the way done and adding thing to it seems random, you need to explain the interesting and tactical changes the the additions made, as for me, I guess I'll dl because it's on spire and please update your thread!
Dude, the spire is the map. As stated in the OP, I have taken an area that I felt would make a nice stand alone map and modified it into a small dueling area. Not sure what part of that confuses you to be honest.
This actually looks really good. Im surprised it doesn have more hits solely from the fact that the thumbnail is not of forgeworld! Really good idea thinking out of the box, i think this would make a nice little arena map indeed. Will DL when i can and have a look around.
