Map Info:

Portal Kombat is a map devided in 4 area's and is not full of teleporters as you might have thought when you saw the map name. Infact it has only 2 sender teleporters on the ground, 1 in the middle of 2 area's. But it has 4
receiver teleporters in the air, (hided in boxes made out of walls with shield doors to make it look cooler then a simple teleporter) there is 1 "air teleporter" above each area, and when you enter the teleporter on the ground you never know where you going to end up because they are random. This adds a little twist to the gameplay, for example:
in a test play i was chasing my friend, but he escaped me through one of the portals and felt down right behind me to hit me with a good punch in the back, hunter became the hunted. ofcourse it doesnt always work like that, sometimes you escape one fight to fall right into another.

Like i said, the map is devided in 4 areas, 2 of em belong to red team, the other 2 to blue team (except in Infection games then the zombies only spawn in 1 area). one team has a Ghost to use, while the other has a rocket launcher on their side (no extra clip). the rest of weapons are quite the same on both sides. Theres is also somesort of "bridge" that goes from one side of the map to the other side of the map. From here you got a pretty good view over all 4 areas, but to prevent camping here i didnt add any cover there but a few fusion coils, so you might be aible to shoot some people from there but it probably wont take long before others noticed your up there.

My personal thoughts:

i personly think this is my best map so far, the gameplay is different then my other maps, i used spawn areas so the spawns work better then before. also i think the weapon placement is pretty balanced and not to many weapons stacked up together what sometimes was the case in my previous maps. also didnt used to many power weapons and in test plays that worked fine to me. this is also my first map where i used some geometry merging and i think it worked out pretty well.

Screenshots:


lets call this area1, first area that belongs to defense team


area2, second area for defense team.


area2 from a different angle


area3, the first area for attackers team, inside the tunnel there is a rocket launcher(no extra clip) to counter the ghost that the other team has.


area4, second area for attackers


the middle platform in mid air, providing god overview and a shotgun. watchout for those fusion coils though.


Stairs to get up the ramp that leads to the middle platform in the air. geometry merged so you wont fall between wall and stairs.


building showed before in area2 with beside it a ghost.


one of the four teleporters in the air.


a shield door between area1 and 3, 2 ways to avoid the shield door on left and right side.


area 4 again from different angle, bubbleshield and overshield can be found here.

thanks being featured would be sweet but well wi'll see
the floaty shield door structures are teleporters where you fall out when you enter a teleporter that is placed on the ground, but you never know which one because its random

 

hehe that would be nice, i really wonder what you guys think after playing. in the video i added the mortal kombat tune from mk1 hehe, tobad it turns out that you cant really hear it that good..

 

yes its open in some ways but dont forget you need that when your having a ghost around, having a ghost with no space to fly it around aint fun.
