Hey ForgeHub! Long time, no post. I'm here to present my newest creation Yeti Dome. It was a quick little map to make, so I'll make this post a little quickly as well. So, here is the map from the outside: As you can see, it's not a complete dome. I was trying to think of an easy way to block off the top and also make it look nice, but I couldn't think of anything. So, I just left the top open and put a hard kill zone to block it off. If you like to jetpack, this map probably isn't for you. It wasn't really made with armor abilities in mind anyway. I wanted to keep it classic. Anyway, here is a shot from the inside: As you can tell from this shot, I do not have any sort of structure that isn't a rock (besides of course the dome itself). I placed some rocks where I cover is needed, but most of it is the natural state of the location. Here is a shot from the opposite side: Sorry if it's difficult to get the sense of the layout. I guess I should have taken more pictures haha. Will do that when I have my xbox around. Weapons on map: x4 DMR x2 Needle Rifle x2 Assault Rifle x2 Needler x2 Plasma Pistol x1 Shotgun (no spare clips) x1 Grenade Launcher (I believe it has 3 spare clips) x4 Plasma x4 Frag So, I hope you guys like what you see, and please leave some feedback! It will be much appreciated. EDIT: Oh snap, I just realized these pics are from the previous version. The only difference is the lights at the top of the map. I changed them slightly.
It is really good for FFA games, but surprisingly through the tests I've had, it actually works pretty well for 4v4 games. Thanks for the download!
Ive never seen glass covers used like this before, pretty awesome! does it have a specific gametype, or only slayer?
I can picture Infection on this map would be fun, and same with FFA, even though this is very basic and there's not much going on.
What you've done to the lights is pure greatness. I love the map as well - so few item types used yet it looks like it will still be fun!
Simple yet elegant. Love the design, reminds me of biodome. It's cool how all the insides are natural and the lights are nice. Might be a little small for 8 players but looks like it would be a great doubles map.
Still haven't been able to play any games on this, but it's a pretty cool-looking map nonetheless. I've become a sucker for maps that have a more natural feel, and this falls right in line with that. We should get some FFA games on here soon.
Thanks for the impressions, guys! I see that you all like the light fixtures. Well, unfortunately I noticed that Gunnergrunt pretty much used the same idea in his map "Vanilla" before I did (I swear I didn't know this until after I built my map!), so I removed those aesthetic touches to the lights to prevent people from calling me a thief. But if it's alright, I could revert them back to that state seeing as how everyone likes them. But yeah, let's get some games on this soon! Add me too! GT: RebornYeti EDIT: Forgot to mention one thing. Under the supported gametypes, you may have noticed it only says team slayer. Well, don't worry it also supports normal Slayer and CTF too.
I freaking love the cage round the lights!!!! lol. Great idea great map, once i get some gameplay i'll give some more feedback
