    Description:
    Warthog Wars is exactly what the title says it is: Warthog Wars. Hop in your Warthog and knock your opponents off- last man standing wins!​

    The field consists of two base areas, with a bridge connecting the them.


    [​IMG]
    After 30 seconds, a shield door spawns in the center of the bridge, ready to push off unwary drivers.


    [​IMG]
    After 45 seconds, mancannons spawn and make it even easier to be flung off the edges.


    [​IMG]
    Finally, after 1 minute, killballs spawn in the four corners of the bases and reduce the size of the playing field even more.



    Action shots!

    Collisions like this can only lead to disaster.

    Thats an awesome map! I'd love to play this as soon as I get the Map pack when it comes out for a DLC.

    I love how you used the timed events to reduce the playing field when some maps use it to add onto it. It's an amazing map and in my eyes, I'm bookmarking it and Downloading it as soon as I gets my maps :D.

    So consider this a 5/5 and a DL :D.

    I would say this is the best warthog arena map for sandbox! Love the timed map events.

    4/5(because of little orginality

    This looks really fun! The map could be aesthetically improved a little, but this looks really good for what's here. Great job! 8/10. I'll give this a download.

    I like the design of the map although it would be nice if you could fuse the man-cans into the flooring of the map so it would look nicer, other than that you did a good job.

    wtf... people beat the sh!t out of me for putting timed effects on my map, and you get praised for it. people hated the killballs, but look at that... they are in love with the killballs on your map...

    the map itself is sorta unique. timed effects aren't very special, they are becoming common... the only thing unique about it is the shape of the platform. that, i will admit, looks fancy.

    nice job on the respawning objects that was a great idea for this mini game. killballs appearing outta nowhere good idea i used that in one of my maps called highrise which i make with spazmonkey92. but anyways grat map but for me to get the 10/10 on this map id say interlock the entire floor it would make it look amazing but it doesnt matter if you dont because the gameplay is amazing.9/10

    This map reminds me of bumper cars but with a twist. I like you creativity and the bridge is nice. The game play is nice. 4.5/5

    Looks really nice and clean. The TMEs sound really fun. The shield door would be funny if someone ran into it while it spawned. Great map. Best one I've seen so far. Funny, cuz th first sandbox map I ever looked at was some bumper car one. I am a bit hesitantabout the killballs. I think they might be too bright, but who knows.

    1 thing. The blue light I see on the end could be stood on. Unless you have a way to prevent that, I'd check into it. 4.3/5. :)

    Gravity is set very high, so there's no way to jump onto it.


    I plan on doing a v2 of this map eventually, where the floor will be completely interlocked, so it will look much nicer, and to try to allow more than 6 players.

    Whoa, there is. It must have found a way to fall through the grid without me noticing :( I'll remove it the next time I update the map (v2, coming eventually)

    Very nice this is going on my DL list. I'm going to give this a 9.8 overall because of the maps great idea, fantastic execution and obvious good play. The only things that I do not like about this map are the shield doors. I believe the map could be played just as well if not better without the doors. I realize the effect desired, but I think it would be better to use maybe gravlifts, or more m'annons.

    Great job overall!

    Hmmm... looks like a 4/5 map (in my opinion) at a glance and I might just DL it but i'd love to know how many vehicles spawn at start? and why not add a ghost for some unlucky spawner? and for the gametype (unable to dl anything im full on custom content for 2 devices) but I STRONGLY reccomend to NOT give the humjans plasma pistols or power drains... there is always 1 noob who hides in a corner and PP's your hog so they end up winning the round.
