    The Watering Hole
    This map was made by me: Y35/White D3vil 911 and mi amigo DODfrontlines11.

    The main feature of this map was ment to be a watering hole in the center of the map with some special features surrounding it, it is ment to be played with "Water" its a custom gametype that starts everyone off with some swords.

    FOCUS / GAMEPLAY
    You are driving through the desert as a shortcut to your destination when all of a sudden the cars tire goes flat, out in the middle of nowhere and the cell phones are down, you only way of survival is to find some food and water, then start a journey to safety.

    You are walking down the road when you all spot a watering hole which is very popular amongst the animals, your dehidrated along with everyone else and its an all out race to claim the water. This map takes place at the watering hole, you are each given a sword to defend the hole, and you must capture it for yourself.

    This picture shows my awesomness of trying to build a wall, this drove me soo mad i finally decided to just use whatever i needed to make it unbreakable

    wow, this looks fabulous. great job! It must be creepy to know that there is a gazelle with an overshield under you.
     
  5. looks awesome but i am more of a closed area type guy so i will pass this but you could put walls around the center and have some other stuff and it would be great

    I'd have thought that this would be a Casual map because of it's custom gametype. Very nice well. I don't care what you call it, it looks like a well to me.

    looks pretty good but other than the central area it looks pretty bare.

    I'd say that if you put a little more on the outside of the map, it will make it whole.

    Awesome and original map idea, it does look like a waterhole minus the roof above it, but hey whatever makes the gameplay the best.

    Wow, great idea for a map. The platform above the watering hole is a good addition and the interlocking used for it gives it a neat design. I was wondering, does the hill go down into the water too, or is it just on the top platform. Good map overall, though I do think you could put some more features on it. 4/5 from me.

    Btw: Woot, Chicago!

    it goes above it, i was going to put it beneith but i decided an overshield would fit nicely down there, the reason i did not put it down there is because you can easily lob gernades down into the pit from about half the map, and the shield doors act as a pillow, they catch the bomb and keep it nice and deadly right at you feet :) so it conteracts the OS
    the hill is above it, where gernades are hard to get and its open a full 360 degrees
