    Pennyless v2

    Pennyless V2
    Created By: DeathToll77 and idiotninja.
    Don't forget to give rep to Deathtoll77!!

    Introduction:
    Pennyless V2 is a mini-game map that requires and open mind, skill, and a sense of humor. Pennyless V2 is a "V" shaped arena with death teleporters at the bottom and various platforms on the sides. This map took over 70 hours to make starting after v1 came out. DeathToll77 and idiotninja used expert forge techniques to create a masterpiece that is amusing and awe-inspiring to the eye. This map was tested a couple of times; there were numerous amounts of exploits and we can assure you that this map is unbreakable and unexploitable.

    Scoring:
    Last Man standing: 7 points
    Killing a human: 2 points
    10 rounds 2 minuets each


    Improvments From Version 1
    Well there are alot...infact this may be the most improvments from v1 to v2 in the history of any map!! First the map is 33.3333333% bigger than v1. Second the entire map is ALOT neater than the first. All of the double boxes are interlocked (this prevents people from jumping of of the slightest ledge) the platforms are straight and there is an extra funnel at the bottom. A extra box barrier was added to the sides too. The fire grenades are floating above the platforms so that they dont role off. Added one more bubble shield and put arrows around them both. Added two deployable covers. Added walls instead of boxes on the ends. If you fall you will die no matter what. Scoring: 7 points for last man standing, 2 points for killing a human. The time was lowered to 2 mins.


    Description:
    Each human starts on a platform inside the map with a plasma pistol. The zombies start in a cage elevated on each end of the map and start with needlers. The zombies goal is to knock the humans of the ledges using the needlers. Shooting the humans with the needlers wil cause them to loose their balance. If they fall they will die when they get to the bottom. The humans can avoid this by jumping around the map and picking up various equipment such as bubble shields, deployable cover and fire grenades. The humans can use the fire grenades to blind the zombies, the bubbles shield can be used to protect against needles, and the deployable cover could be used as protection or something to lean against.

    Question and Answer:

    Q: Why did you put your names inbetween each photo?

    A: So that for the people that just look at the pics, they know that two people created it.


    Q: How long did this take?

    A: Read the intro, oh fine ill save you the trouble...70+ hours


    Q: Can you guys play with me?

    A: Sure, just send us an invite DeathToll77 and Cheesepuffs 96


    Q: Will this map be featured?

    A: Thats for you to decide........


    Q: Can I have your autographs?

    A: HAHA, no


    Q: Will you make anymore maps?

    A: Of course, we usually make maps together so expect to see us around.


    Q: Why do you guys always work together?

    A: Because DeathToll77 always has an awsome idea for a map, but does not know how to carry it out. So idiotninja comes and perfects the idea and helps build it.


    Q: Why did you put you names inbetween each pic?

    A: You already asked that!!



    Something Cool:
    Hey guys there is an energy sword hidden in the map somewhere....you have to look for it in forge. It could be anywhere.........oh and if you find it let me know and ill give you a cookie (void on this planet)

    Well this map has finally been posted, ive played on it a lot, I think I was at 3 testing sessions and many unplanned 4 player matches that were surprisingly fun. This map is near flawless, the sides are interlocked and clean, the ledges are well placed, and it is actually fun for both sides.

    Gameplay wise, the chaos of 16 player matches on this map are unreal, 14 people jumping from ledge to ledge while a hailstorm of needles knocks unsuspecting players to their doom is a level of fun and intense gameplay that I have not been able to feel in many other maps. Lots of laughter and cheers of triumph will be heard as people jump into eachother or pop that bubble shield at the last second.

    In the map layout category, the cleanness of this map makes it aesthetically pleasing, while still functional, and after a while forging with deathtoll (not actually building with him, just the occasional help or occasional mispress of the a button leading to frustration on his part) I can see how much work went into this map to make it look and play the way it does. This is one of the few maps I can definitely say is unbreakable.

    Overall a really fun map to play, as ive said before, far superior to purple bunker’s exploitable gameplay, it creates an environment that is fun for both sides to play on, zombies have a blast choosing which targets to shoot to their doom, while frantic jumping as a human is equally entertaining. Definitely worthy of a feature, I look forward to seeing this map played in TGIF’s and customs for a long time.

    10/10, unprecedented originality, forging skill, and gameplay. Well built Deathtoll.

    First of all great map post. It was very informative. I have been waiting for this v2 map to come out. It is a very original idea and will make a great mini game map. I love the interlocking and equipment choices. You definitely have got my download. 5/5 for sure!

    hey, you guys released this. From what I saw, the map was looking really good. I love the idea of people jumping around trying not to fall in the death pit. :p

    Also, I tried the V1 and the gameplay was awesome. A very fun gametype and I hope(and should) this map is featured. I like the arrows and the bubble shield in that little circle.

    BTW-I helped with the arrows. YAY!!

    Seems like their has been alot of good reviews of this map, I will try it out for sure. This second version seems much better, I was thinking about downloading the first before but it seemed to sloppy.

    I would have done the same....compared to this version it makes the first one look like it got: eaten by chuck norrises pet dinosaur then was pooped out and sat on by Rosie O'donnel. But seriously we made sure that this one was perfect

    This map is cool, a definite original!

    I like the idea of "Stay on the platforms or die." It will sometimes make for funny situations!

    The ascetics are great too! It looks 90%+ interlox, and that will make the map even greater!

    5/5, this really should be featured.
