    Map Download
    A link for the gametype can be found on the map download page

    This is my first minigame so please dont be to harsh.

    Two teams of two (One driver and one shooter) drive on a small platform from across Foundry in an attempt to laser each other.

    Looks well constructed, but i'm not sure about the gameplay, couldn't a person just jump down and leave the arena?

    such a cool idea, but could use some more fun to it, like stuff spawns in mid air every min or so

    It seems pretty basic. Some people have pretty steady aim. Wouldn't it be over quickly? Or do they do it for a while on a bunch of different gooses?

    i could make it a hill gametype and place hills with high gravity on the areas.
    i like the idea of the falling objects too.

    any ideas are helpful i just got bored and thought of this one day

    I like the "spawn things in air thing. This way so some of your shots might hit falling dumpsters. Also I think even with 300% grav. you might be able to crouch jump over the barriers. also coulnt someone hop of the mongoose so it would be easier to lazy the other team but harder for them to lazer you. i'll give this a go but it looks like it might need work.

    i love the idea, but like people have said before i think it would be over to quickly. falling objects and maybe make the platforms that you drive on bigger in a v2? and is there a gametype for it?

    i think you have a fun idea here, but work could be done. maybe make a top wall, of fence walls, so you can still see through, but cant jump out, gameplay doesnt seem too bad, maybe make more teams, thad be intense.

    How don't people just simply walk out and laser the other mongoose? And you obviously can't play with more than 4 people... Needs work.

    The concept is good, but I think the map needs some work. Many people are very good with Splasers and so it seems like whoever dies first would lose because then they could keep spawn-killing the other team. Anyway, nice work, but maybe you could make a V2 that has an improved map. 3/5 for now.

    you could try putting fence walls around the area where the mongoose drives; that way people can't jump out and you can still laser each other (the laser can go through fence walls)

    maybe more platforms form multiple teams? or a wider area to drive around in?

    ...or take out the lasers and replace them with grenades =D

    what if id put a door along the rim of the platforms then stack another wall on top of that so theres a small gap to still shoot out of.
    im not sure how to make more platforms because im almost out of double and single boxes

    If you're completely out of double and single boxes, open and closed, you can probably build one more platform out of fence boxes. Otherwise, build another platform using the remaining open and closed boxes.

    ive made a third platform on v2 but i still have no idea on how to keep people in and i have very low supplies

    people should just stay on the platform and not screw things up

    Good idea but instead make it snipers so it's not over as quick and make it so shields don't recharge so that it's not you HAVE to get a headshot or get him twice. But ya i think you8 would need honor rules to not just jump out or even not even get in the mogoose and just snipe you off while in your scope.

    i think u should use rocket launchers and make each other invincible so the idea of the game is to shoot ur opponents out the arena. and put teleporters all over the floor so the person who is knoked off has to go through the teleporter which leads outside the map where the guardians kill them.
