Viridian supports 4v4 Ts and 8 player FFA. Game play on this map has the feel of Zealot but much is more fast paced. This map features three levels and the walls around the map are slanted so that players can run up and down them giving game play a very unique feel and flow. I also put a new spin on the lifts on this map as well as transitions from first level to second. One thing that I can certainly say about Viridian is that it is quite unique and several of its features are ones that haven't been attempted yet. I hope you enjoy Viridian, oh and p.s. Zero Bloom on this map is awesome. Here is a preview video of the map I appologize for its graininess I didnt have enough render minutes left to spring for HD. TBNONREACH 2.wmv - YouTube
I really like the game-play of this map! The one thing i would maybe do is add more cover/aesthetics to the outer portion of the map. other than that it is one of my favorite 2v2/4v4 maps i have played on
Right on I thank you for the positive feed back. I thought the same thing, but I couldnt quite figure out what to add to the 2nd floor ring that seemed like it belonged on the map I am open for suggestions.
I dl'd and flew around it on forge, awesome looking map, love your use of the corners to make the gaps that you get 'graved' trough etc. Cool map in general.
Awesome map. This should be in a playlist. I love the fast pace action even 1v1. plus it looks damn good. DownlOad it and tell yOur friends !!
Thanks Steve, that is certainly a glowing review. I appreciate all feedback I want to keep this thread alive and get the word out about this map so if you DL I would greatly appreciate your comments.
Definitely a sweet map, the different levels, corners, and holes in the floor make for a ridiculously fun combination. There's nothing better than evading up the side and into a hole only to find someone walking right in front of you waiting to be assassinated. Keep up the great work man I'm sure everyone who has played any of your maps appreciates it.
Wow man, you keep getting better. That map looks amazing. As much as KOTH sucks, it looks like it'd be fun to play on this. And the **** you do with lifts is amazing. You have great designs, Phil, nice work.
That curved center structure is amazing. If nothing else I would play this map just to walk on those arches. The way you used slopes on the outer edge of the map usually results in great firefights around the side of maps. The only thing that might be a problem is framerate with the light, which I'll try to test tonight. Overall this is an incredible map.
Yeah I was a bit worried about that when I made the map but so far I havent ran into any screen lag. If you do come across some then I'll just get rid of the reciever nodes inside of it. Let me know what you come across.
