I've just made a map using Cold Storage for CTF and Assault. I've placed respawn points, starting points and respawn areas, however, it seems pretty awful when I tried the map out. So right now I need a spawn expert or anyone that is any good at it to help me place the spawns points for CTF and Assault. Here are some pics if they motivate you to help me. By the way, before you post PLEASE note that I only need help with the spawns. If you have have something to say about the weapon placements and timing, don't go off changing them by yourself, ask for permission first. Thanks in advance.
I'm not really an "expert", though i could help you out with it. If you want to add me on Xbox Live, here's my GT: Alienvsbon
Actually it doesn't help. I've read that guide before and it doesn't help me much. This is the first map I've made that uses more than respawn points. The only thing I need to know is how to make successful CTF map spawns. I've never checked out the spawns in any CTF map other than the default sandtrap and vahalla.
You haven't taken the time to read it thoroughly have you? Respawn areas and ctf/assault respawn areas are very similar, you take the concepts provided in the guide, then tweak them as needed for ctf/assault. It really will help you, if you just take the time to read it completely.
I've read it like 5 times already. What I needed to do is differentiate between an area spawn, a home spawn and away spawn. Also, I needed to know if 1 starting point in 1 respawn area is the same as 10 starting points in 1 respawn area. Apparently, that thread doesn't answer my questions. It only talks about WHERE you spawn depending on factors and the spawn order. That I already know.

You know, you guys are linking me to the same post. Which apparently does not explain what's the difference between using a respawn area and a home respawn area coupled up with an away respawn area. AND I need to know if good CTF maps use home and away respawn spots, cause they seem kinda redundant.
