Zenith caught my eye I think I am going to go with that. Thanks This thread should be stickied in my opinion.
Ghost717 Cool. Glad I could help. What's a Scope? I don't have a map set up for the gametype anymore. Once I've decided upon the scoring system for my game, I should be able to make the first map for it. I'm going for urban themed. It's going to be called Tactical Strike on Strategic Target.
Map Style: Slayer/Swat Map Name Preferences: Be unique Map Quality Named After: Map Name Meaning: Map Description: An open map with two central square buildings and some platforms and walkways.
Map Style:Infection Map Name Preferences: Map Quality Named After:Town Map Name Meaning:Open and big Map Description:A town with many structures and many entrances to each building
No problem. Glad I could help. May have been used: Downtown Uptown Slums Meaning: Vast Innumerable I will think of more later.
As this is a thread meant to assist the overall community with a rather persistent problem most every forger experiences with their maps, I deem this to not be a necro-post despite the four-week period of time between this and the previous post, as well as the fact that this thread's topic can never "die." _________________________________________________________________ I need help naming my new tactical gametype, considering that the old name, Tactical Strike (on Strategic Target), no longer fits with the scoring system and is a different game. Think of this new gametype as branching off from the old one, considering that the only difference is the scoring system and a few traits implemented to make it work properly. It is still a very tactical gametype, just like Tactical Strike, but the new scoring system gives it a slightly comical and ridiculous feel. The VIP team must reach destinations to score points (1 per destination), but there's a problem. The destinations only change when the VIP dies, and the Attackers get a point every time they kill the VIP. Because of this, the defenders have to betray their VIP every time he arrives at a destination so that they can continue scoring points, and to keep the Attackers from scoring points. Some possibly pointless information about the gametype: Everyone has limited lives, which normally dictates when the round ends; either the attackers run out of lives, or the VIP team does, but it may be because they betrayed their VIP so many times that they ran out, or they were just all killed. The current name for the gametype is Turncoat.A turncoat is a person who changes to the opposite party or faction; on who reverses principles; one who forsakes his party or his principles.The gametype with the map is: Turncoat on Substation Relay. The map is named after the two Substation Relays on Ghost Town. The two names don't go together as well as I would hope, but I may make several maps for the gametype, in which case they wouldn't need to. I like this name, but I would like to hear any of your ideas as well. Thank you.
Well the most obvious name would be: Betrayal or any of other form. If you want to focus on that aspect, Traitors Double Agents Sabotage Back Stab Others: The Greater Good I is optional (get it? like VIP?) Caboose (rvb reference)
What's A Scope? Thanks for replying so quickly. Your post just gave me the perfect name for the gametype. I is optional (get it? like VIP?). When thinking about that suggestion, I thought of such titles as VUP (unimportant). I then thought of the VIP as a disposable resource, and looking for synonyms of disposable, I found this: I feel that this name fits the overall theme of my gametype perfectly, as well as being an easily understood word that is also a certain military jargon, and a well-known one at that! Thank you for your suggestions; they were very helpful despite my not using them as the actual name. If anyone thinks they can top that name, or think of a great addition to / expansion of it, feel free to tell me. Thank you.
Hello Guys, My current map, snowfound, which is snowbound with some extra cover and plasma batteries strategically placed, is currently going through testing and I would like a new name for its release. The backstory is that the map is an abandoned jackal sniper training area if that helps. Map Style: Fast-Paced, Explosive, Thinking on your feet Map Name Preferences: Map Quality Named After: Snow/Cold, or Alien/Covenant Map Name Meaning: Map Description: Contains barriers set up for cover as well as two mongeese and two prowlers. In the basement 10-12 plasma batteries and some barriers line the wall. In the center of the basement there are camping stools with carbines leaned against them.
Glad you found out what you wanted. I tried to think of something similar for my last post, but I could't find the word. Snow: Shiver Deep Freeze Hypothermia Alien: Extraterrestrial
Cold: Siberian, Algid, Benumbed, Boreal, Brumal, Frore, Gelid, Hawkish, Hiemal, Hyperborean, Icebox, Iced, Numbed, One-dog night, Two-dog night
Hey guys thanks for your help. I would say my favorites are shiver, deep freeze, and iced. I also like Gelid, will probably use it in my next infection map. Sounds kind of creepy and send tingles up your spine. I'm probably going to make this map part of a Ice map pack or something.
No problem, you're welcome. We just try to do our job here. Tell your friends =] *pick my names! (nou Scope =p)*
Map Style: Very Competitive/ Asymmetrical Map Name Preferences: Map Quality Named After: Sewer-like Pipe/ Pipe/ Large Ledge Map Name Meaning: Map Description: I know its not a lot to go off of, but I know you guys can help me. I want something epic sounding.
I got a good gametype name: Creepers. Could be used for infection. I call the name Slam. I haven't posted the map yet, but I didn't want to until after the wave of crap/average/spam Sandbox maps. I also need help naming my map. I might just call it Apartments. Full description here.
