One day while watching Avatar ( Cartoon series , not the blue kitty people) the idea dawned upon me that I should make four maps based on the Elements Water, Earth, Fire, and Air. I went even further to make all of these maps a plant for generating electricity . With this map I decided to base it off a windmill type thing with the element being Air ( OBVIOUSLY) . I wanted it to seem new though so I wanted to build somewhere that no one else has built on. this cliff above blood gulch seemed like a good spot but I found out why no one was building there . The cliffs were lined up to a 45 degree angle , as apposed the the traditional 90 which we are all so used to . but That didn't stop me . It was all originally supposed to be the blue base . no bridge or tower , just a fort on a cliff . but that seemed to overused so I decided to expand and got inspiration from a Halo 3 DLC map with a bridge whos name escapes me right now. For now here is the map Windbound. The whole map ( tower is just for show , not actually accessable) Overview of the blue base overview of the red base and half of the bridge . top view of the blue base windmill at blue base Cliff under the bridge at the blue base Front view of the red base Back of the red base One of the twin atrium...grass...statue...circular...thing Floor view of the back half of the red base ( I really like the stairs) I have the next 3 already planned out . I just need a name for the earth map . (I was thinking terra fort or Geothermal ) (Ideas would help) Up next is the hydro electric plant - Aquatica . (unfortunately it is also based on a 45 degree angle.)
Looks pretty good. The middle bridge reminds me alot of Narrows which is sweet. My only problem is that each base is so huge to be it's own separate map. So if this just a 4v4 map, it may be too complicated.
This is quite a cool idea, to be honest I wish I'd thought of it. The one problem is how will you create fire? This first installment looks awsome, I love the fact that you've broken the mould of putting trees in grass holders, the metal statues are really original and I feel give the map a 'tribal' theme, look forward to seeing the next map.
Yeah the fire one is gonna be like a standard generator plant where they are just burning things . I will probably have a lot of fusion coils helping me in that one.
I like the Idea of a bunch of maps that are based on elements but have you thought about Anything other unlisted elements . Like making a light and a dark map. That would be freaking legit . MAybe I'm just stuck on Yu-gi-oh though ... but you could do solar power for light and maybe the dark one could be in like a city where there are just a bunch of lights . sort of like the opposite of energy generating
Hmm, a name for an Earth map? Well before I think of a name, I just wanted to say, nice job on your map, it looks very clean and open which I like for any kind of slayer game type. Anyways... A name... a name... names! Ah crud, how about, Planetopia? I don't know. Just a suggestion.
