Clifftops is a map designed for the King Snipers gametype only. Two bases are divided between a large chasm, which serves as the hill. However you don't really want to go down there because in the hill you can do NOTHING! You can't even deal any damage so you are essentially a sitting duck. There are lots of items to take cover behind however there are only 2 beam rifles per base, since the map is designed for snipers and you spawn with a human rifle with unlimited ammo. So if you like sniper matches try out Clifftops. <img src=http://img156.imageshack.us/img156/8788/clifftopsmu0.jpg> <img src=http://img141.imageshack.us/img141/4675/clifftops2sx8.jpg> <img src=http://img141.imageshack.us/img141/797/clifftops3rk7.jpg> <img src=http://img150.imageshack.us/img150/2883/clifftops4hm4.jpg> <img src=http://img150.imageshack.us/img150/4796/clifftops5fi3.jpg> DOWNLOAD CLIFFTOPS HERE = http://www.bungie.net/Forums/posts.aspx?postID=18590418 DOWLOAD KING SNIPERS HERE = http://www.bungie.net/Forums/posts.aspx?postID=18590428
The problem with this map is that if some one gos into the middle of the map they have absolutely no use and cannot do anything for the rest of the game, Maybe you could create a large death-pit so people who fall in die immediately. This map is also more of a mini-game as it is set for only one game type, and is seemingly not set up for any others, regardless of how competitive the map is in actual play. I can see at least four rather obvious ways in which I could jump out of the map from these screen-shots alone, unless you have no grenades(which you did not specify here) you can get out with one grenade jump.
Yea. I mean it is very neat and it really isnt too much. I mean tunnels underneath the bases would be a good idea and also maybe make it bigger. And the center part. I it is supposed to be like a hill, Make a hill made out of walls go over it and to the other side. I think that would call for good gameplay.
Now that you mention it you're right this is more of a mini game map, I didn't think about that. I designed it so that you're not suppose to leave the base. I wanted two opposing bases that would have to go at it with sniper rifles only. Kinda of like a Counter Strike feel. I did the center the way I did because of this. I didn't want people getting down there, and I couldn't think of a way to make it so players couldn't jump in there without hindering the view in or out of the base. So yes if you choose to play it the way it's not meant to be you are completely useless.(except for being an easy kill) I did turn grenades off but if you find a way out of the map please let me know. Sorry about posting this in the wrong forum.
It's okay, It's an honest mistake. The one problem is that, while in scope, people may fall down into the chasm, which just sucks.
