Second map; done from scratch this time. Turned out to be a lot bigger than I'd originally intended. Was testing out some ideas: Mario style platforms for one. But that didn't work out too well as the character physics in the Forge are different from when actually playing... (suddenly everything is too far to jump to...) With lots of cannons and teleporters though it shouldn't be too difficult to find each other even when playing with 3 or 4 players. Let me know what you think. Good or bad!
I'm gunna have to be frank here, there is no cover to speak of, your map just looks like a huge, narrow walkway, and why is there a tank there? It looks like whoever shoots first wins, there is no where to take cover, and you made a section of your map a literal death trap with the plasma coils Your platforms are far too easy to fall off of, meaning that people will probably avoid that area as well and the only easily accessed area has landmines on it. also, how on earth do you reach the cannons?
Whole underside of the map you're not seeing, but the wide openness was on purpose. The platforms on the right side are meant to be scary, but pay off is worth it. As for the tank, well I'd put it elsewhere at one point, then decided it didn't make any sense, so I put it there. You can't access that part of the map at all, so it's just for fun. Oh, those unreachable cannons? Yeah, that's where you start! Thanks!
I think you are missing the point here... anyway could you post more pictures?, because to be honest, right now, from what I can see, nothing in it really makes me want to download the map...
I'll try and remember for later. Just uploaded some for the other map. I get your point, but I'm pretty sure we have different points of views on what makes a fun map is all. Having no place to hide and dying but not knowing why or who, is what makes the game fun for me. That said, I haven't tested these maps in a game yet, so maybe they do supremely suck. lol. Mostly doing it to learn and test out ideas. I just noticed your maps, I'll download those soon and tell you what I think of them. And I'll try and get you some more pics. One thing you can't tell by just looking at the map is that all areas are very accessible. There are cannons and teleporters positioned to ensure all areas can, and are used.
If these haven't been played in a game yet, I highly suggest putting it in the tester's guild, in this link here: Testers Guild - Forge Hub But its too late now. But if you're doing another map, put it there and they'll give you a quality review, with whats good and whats bad.
