    Hey guys this is my second version of runescape castle wars, in this version i created a structure in the middle and i extended the tunnels a lot, i also fixed alot of stuff that should have been there and added stepping stones on each side lol. I hope you all enjoy this great capture the flag map just like the original runescape has. V2 is much better than the first version, i still wish i could do more but the max item limit has got me =[, hope you all enjoy my map! Created by bulletthrust

    Also here is the vid that i had for version 1, i didn't make a vid for version 2 but v1 is quite similar to v2 but the tunnels and middle part and stepping stones are very different.

    Really, really good replica. I occasionally play RS and this looks really well done.

    Only thing I have to say is the underground tunnels are nothing like the ones on castle wars. They need to be extended.

    A fan of runescape? Looks similar in a way, the stepping stones seem a little unneeded, i also agree with toonshorty about the under ground. Great job and keep forging. Deployable covers as barricades?

    P.S. i quit rs a long time ago but..... i was lv 78 with 2 mil in bank and had 120-140 quest points. i leveled up a lot in castle wars.

    looks good but, but i would make random classes. so say a warrior class with a sword and hammer with oversheild. ranger with beam rifle and sniper (no power up) and mage (plasma weaps and explosives w/equipment) and a custom power up with half health since they dont wear armor. this is just a suggestion for maybe a V3.

    The scale is really badly off, using the laser blocked OLN canvas you could have made this very well scaled, and the crypt has enough room to make the underground larger.

    Good so far but WAY to small to for me to compare to Castle Wars from Runescape. I hope to see a larger version from you soon! The castles are great!

    Yeah, but im glad you took my post int o consideration on the tunnels etc =) nice job

    If you do this, make sure to set the customs, overshields etc to instant spawn so you cant get away with full health maging.

    The river in castle wars played a huge part so not having one kinda ruins the map. I think it would be better to make the main map in the crypt (as it is square) and the tunnels above. That way you could make the original corner to corner layout. I loved castle wars on runescape so don't give up on the idea, I just think it needs to be replicated more. I also think the huge emphasis on ranged weapons on the map will be different from castle wars style gameplay.

    i would say that i would look better in the sky bubble if you can use the objects well you would be able to creat the actuall river. but i have to agree, the cave can be ALOT bigger.

    Why is there SOOOOO much spam in this post?

    well this looks more like an aesthetic map due to the fact that alot of it is just looks, for instance you can just run across and not do the caves or steping stones, this could be fixed by some INTENCE geomerging by making all the areas where you cant walk under the skybox besides that is has bad playability and also you can spawn kill, you should make a grav lift in spawn rooms to make it like runescape also the catapault can fire teh pplz, besides the open area the bases are good
