I made a thread about this on Waypoint but it got buried. I would like some input from others on it, and see what I should change! (The following is mostly copy-pasta.) http://imgur.com/a/CpFfZ The first pic has the buildings invisible, but the dark areas still represent where they would be. Yellow=Road White=Empty space, such as a sidewalk, alleyway, or field. Blue=Building Brown=Wall or barrier of some sort Red=Entrance to a power weapon spawn Green=Team Spawn Dark Green=Forest (Just for ascetics. You wouldn't be able to actually drive around here.) Gray=Mountain (Same deal as the Forest.) It would be for a round-based elimination game, where you spawn in a garage with several Scout Hogs and Mongooses. You and your team get in these and drive around the town looking for the other team, and get into driving gunfights with them. I have some ideas for traps and whatnot that you can trigger while driving and shooting, but I'm gonna save those for when I actually make it. If you get out of the Warthog or Mongoose, you have ten seconds to get back on or you'll die, except for at power weapon spawns. The roads are the main area you can drive on, but any white you see connected to a road is fair game, too. The brown lines are probably gonna be guardrails and whatnot. Everyone starts with a pistol, although you can also find shotguns, SMGs, and ARs in the weapon spawns. In the center square, I may put a really powerful weapon there, or maybe a neutral Scout Hog to jump into in case yours is about to blow up. The map itself may either be industrial or downtown themed, or maybe both. Also, those squiggly roads are meant to be smoothly curved, I just wanted to stick with my simple triangles-and-squares system I had going. I really hope Forge will be big enough for this! What do you guys think?
This could be really cool, The first thing I thought of was odst. I would play that or look up some pictures for inspiration. Are you planning any height variation? It wouldn't be a great Idea to make all the roads on the same level. Other than that I'm guessing you are planning the buildings to have multiple levels?
I had an idea to make an elevated road, kinda like a highway, but I don't know where I would want it. I may turn one of the buildings into a subterranean road entrance, and have it link up to it's parallel on the other side. Other than that, I may take those curved roads and lift them up.
