    Welcome to the Teamwerks arena, where your communication, plasma pistol, battle rifle, and all-round teamwork skills will be tested. This is a simple and frenetic game which you can play as casually or competitively as you want. Essentially, one person plays as the 'BR guy' and the rest play as plasma pistol wielding pit-monkeys. Here are the rules you need to know about:

    The BR guy: He's invincible. He has infinite ammo. Don't bother shooting at him.

    Beatdowns and assassinations: They aren't a smart thing to do. You'll lose two points every time you kill somebody with your fists.

    Teamwork Kills: The best way to kill your enemies is to charge-shot them and then have the BR guy knock them out with a head-shot (he doesn't do enough damage to do it on his own).

    Plasma Grenades: If you manage to kill somebody with a grenade stick, you'll earn 7 points. It's tricky, though, due to those darn overshields.

    Shield Vampirism: Everyone on the field has strong shield vampirism. If you find yourself without a shield, you'll need to punch of plasma-pistol the bad guys to get it back. play around to see what keeps you alive longest.

    The best way to walk you through this game, though, is in pictures, so here we go...

    Spawnzorz
    The first thing your team will see is this set of teleporters. You'll need to decide who's going to be the BR user on your team. Only one person may go through the center portal. Once there, he'll have to destory a pallet and proceed through the portal in front of him. This will lead him to the BR box.

    BR Box
    The BR box has a number of goodies within it. The most important thing is a custom powerup which makes you invincible. Next, there's your BR, and finally, a power drainer.

    Clear Arena
    The rest of the team will move through the side portals down to the arena, seen below. Note that the man-cannons can and should be utilized to make you difficult to hit.

    Grenade Holders
    There are four grenades on the map. Each is next to a shiny teleporter node. If you can manage to discharge your opponents' shields and then stick them with a plasma (before your BR guy kills him), you'll net your team 7 points, as illustrated below.
    [​IMG]

    Catch!
    Make sure the shields are down, and throw away!
    [​IMG]

    7 Points!
    It's difficult, but totally worth it.
    [​IMG]

    Dueling
    Another update from the old version is that you can now duel-wield plasma pistols. It helps, particularly when you're trying to steal your enemies' shields back to save your own skin.
    [​IMG]

    Drain-O
    Watch out for power drainers. Period.
    [​IMG]

    Regenerator
    The perfect solution to a rogue power drainer is a regenerator. Luckily, you have access to one. There's a cage floating above the arena filled with fusion coils. Simply have your BR guy shoot them and a regenerator will be thrown into the center of the arena. Make sure you grab it before the other team does.

    YOu sPelT teamwoRKS wrong fix UR thread man!!!1one1


    I cant really tell what this would be like without playing it, looks kind of fun though. I like the slanted edges at the sides, gives people a little more hope of dodging the almighty BR dood.

    Wow looks great Cosmic, I really need to play this. Unfortunately I will not be able to play tomorrow during FNF on this map, should be very fun. I guess I will just have to play it sometime this weekend with the GoO. Very nice.

    Great job, Cosmic. Definitely one of the more competitive mini-games out there. I like the changes to the BR box, and the dual-wielding capability is a good dynamic change. This is a blast every time, and a great way to sharpen those BR skills if nothing else.

    I'm pretty sure I saw the old version of this. It intrigued me then, so I'll definitely give it a DL and check it out, especially since it seems like you've overhauled it with some of your trademark aesthetic touches.

    yay, my first named appearance on a major map...great map btw!!!! it's awesome to see all of these maps just popping up out of nowhere, and making foundry look like a completely different, and unique map.

    Nice work Cosmic!!

    Ive seen this type of map before, but not with people fighting in the middle. The plasma-then-stick idea is pure genius. Ive been working on a map like this but with two teams and one sniper for each team. The non-snipers go slow to get to the territories and the snipers have to try to stop them all.

    I like how clean it looks. The design is great. The gametype is also very different, but I have yet to play it, so I can't say whether I enjoy it or not.

    Very cool idea. I hope more maps like this get made. Unique things are always very interesting.

    i got to tell u at first i was alittle reluctant in playing but i was willing to test it. after the first few kills i realized this was a gem in disguise the screenshots dont do it justice, its even better than it looks. 3on3 was very fun and i cant wait to see a big game on this. all the small aesthetic touches give this map the feel of a real spectator game.
