Re: Stairwaty King Don't get me wrong. I love controlling the shotgun. It's the only thing I excel at. But you might want to put some other weapons on the map. The shotgun will still rock everyone else, so I'm sure you won't hurt its feelings by adding some spikers... maybe an SMG or two.
Re: Stairwaty King I hope you fixed the multitude of things that we talked about when we were testing this??? o ya, whats a Stairwaty?
Re: Stairwaty King Alright, you added the shield doors. Did you make it easier to get inside of the arena? I kept getting assassinated at the door because I had to time a perfect croush jump to get in sometimes. You should probably interlock objects, and maybe put the entrance boxes on top of the arena floor instead of next to it. One thing you don't expect is a 2 inch stub in the ground WILL block your character from walking over it. Ridiculous as it may see, the Spartans can only walk on smooth surfaces. Not to mention the shotgun could be anywhere in the confusion. And grenade spamming kinda makes it pointless. Let us know when you've fixed these things. I'd also recommend changing it to a custom gametype. Call it "Killer King" or something, make it so that you can only get points for kills while inside the hill or something. The map would probably work better as Slayer than as purely King of the Hill. All you have to do is stand there while the people you killed respawn and have to walk up stairs and enter through 1 of 3 entrances. Slayer sound like it'd be more fun. Also, you probably have some to spare. use walls of any sort and make a donut shape around the arena's lower area or something. People on one side of the map will run over and just kill people as they respawn. Same with the stairs, maybe add some extra shield doors to them, to prevent some respawning player from shooting you while you climb up. Point is, the action should be up top, and it's too easy and encouraged to kill down below. They might lose, but they'll piss a lot of people off in the process.
Re: Stairwaty King all the bugs have been fixed. and if people really want to try and fight at the bottom ok good then they will lose htats there fualt and any cvommon sense person knows the battle is up top. Yes there are know bumps where u get stuck everywhere you walk is smoth nothing to get stopped on. walls were realigned. and as for weapons go there are none because what would be the point AR is perfect to run in there shooting throwing greandes and the shotgun is not hard to control with quite hard actualy. also u must play with atleast 8 people to see the fun factor
Two things to consider. First being the size the hill can be controlled at. Make sure that the hill is not as big as the room, but in a more centralized location to eliminate campers. Also, more weapons should be added to give incoming players a chance against someone who is hiding around the corner with the shotgun. For team games perhaps you should give each team an equal balance of weapons. Good work though.
man u can't type can u The shotgun is very hard to control. Its quite hard actually????? what?? map looks ight though. But there should be more ways into the base
well the many test runs we had the shotgun was used for maybe 15 secs at a time before he or she was killed and im planning on working on a 2nd version that will have a bottom floor added which should make the game more interesting and as for gametype it is only Free For All Most Pit Team King there would be to many betrayles and confusion i dont want alot of weapons becasue it was set for Nades and what not with alot of stick double kills and triple kills from explosions with so tactical on how u approach the hill also the hill is not over sized to where u can camp its not even as big as the rpoom its a bit smaller which gives you room to get protection behind the shiled doors without getting any time from the hill.
i Garentee.. that most ppl are gunna throw grenades in tehre and then probly go shotgun crazy... but looks pretty crazy i'd like to play
