To get people to spawn where you want, add Respawn Points to your map. If they still spawn at the top, turn into a monitor, press Start and select "change Gametype". Then select the gametype that you will play on and look for "Starting Points" (which look like respawn points, but they have glowing rings rising from them). Make sure there are none of those on the top and move them to where you want people to begin the match or delete all of them if you don't want specific starting points. You have to do this for every gametype to get people to stop spawning on the top of the map. There are a few things that you should be concerned about: -There are many weapons crowded next to each other (grenades and roof). Try spreading them around the map instead of giving players an armory (armories lead to camping) -The middle is pretty open. Aside from those few blocks, you should add more cover around the entire map because it looks like if you start getting shot in some places, you won't be safe for a really long time. -Maybe add more weapons? I don't really see much besides a sniper, a warthog, a turret and a sword. Just add some basic weapons (BRs, ARs, Magnums, Plasma Pistols, etc...) in some places so people don't run out.
exactly. also, though it's not required to make a map good, a little bit of merging can go a long way. if you don't know how to do this go to the forging 101 forum, there's lots of great tutorials there.
thanks guys, i have spawn points so next time i can get on my xbox i will go and do the game type thing. ill add some more wepons, but there are br's smg's shotguns' and magnums, there on the first floor at the back. ill add some more cover, and try to merge some things. thank you guys so much.
