Pipeworks by iiHeCtic Hey forging community! Today I bring you my newest forging creation. I know the age of foundry is considered to be over but i still am in love with the old map. The map I bring you is a totally symettrical map which uses the back hallway. It uses some intense interlocking and geomerging. As opposed to what most foundry maps do/did, I blocked off some of the back part of the map and used the alleys. After testing the map we found that 4v4 is the best number of people and CTF is definately the most fun. In CTF games, after 3 minutes, a window spawns in the back alley to force some gameplay changes. Also, I made the flag spawn and Flag capture points diagonally opposite each other to make the flag runs more interesting. Please leave some constructive critisism and do not tell me what I should "fix" without playing it. Thanks to you all and I hope you enjoy my second FH map. Gametypes: CTF (best) Slayer (good) Oddball (Probably second best) Neutral Assult (works fairly well) KOTH (it supports it but i don't recomend it.) Weapon list: BR x6 Needler x2 Spartan Laser x1 Sniper x1 Brute shot x1 Spiker x4 Plasma Rifle x4 Plasma pistol x1 Magnum x2 Carbine x2 Assult rifle x4 (I think) Active Camo x1 Pics: Overview [/URL] Another angle of the "pipes" [/URL] View of sniper tower [/URL] Main lift up to pipes [/URL] Side lift up to pipes [/URL] Entrance to back room and ball/bomb spawn [/URL] View of back room [/URL] Back base and flag spawn [/URL] Back Alley (yes thats a bridge) [/URL] Side tower [/URL] Room in back of base [/URL] ACTION SHOTS: Br battle in front of sniper tower [/URL] Sneaky flag runner [/URL] Who wins?

For the gametypes, just use the ones preset (neutral assult, team slayer, etc). Thanks alot!
Nice, Very nice geomerging, Can you tell me how you got a bridge back there? ive tried many times and failed. Thanks. The CTF nodes are placed in a nice area, on the wall =) The layout and smoothness of this map will make it a great flowing game. 4.5/5
This looks pretty good. The layout seems pretty interesting. I'm probably not going to download this though (mainly making room for sandbox maps and Que is somewhat full at the moment) I would download this though. Really like that geomerged bridge though, bet it was hard . I'll go ahead and rate aesthetics 4/5 (maybe add a tad more just so it stands a little better) and the layout 5/5
Thanks for the comments guys. I can give you a tut. on the bridge merging remii whats ur gt? I understand the not really having space thing also. If you ever end up dling it just let me know what you think.
looks like a pretty solid map. to be honest, i probably wouldn't dl but i need to find out how u got that bridge there, so i guess i will . good job with the geomerging and merging too, its super clean, which really makes it look professional. 4.5/5 for me, ill get back with a more in-depth post once i play it.
Alright kool. If you want to runs customs on it do a 4v4 CTF because it is the most fun thing i have ever played. Not trying to brag but i realy had more fun on it then i was expecting. Hope to see your review.
Alright kool. Let me know what you think of the gameplay. Note: try to stay away from KOTH because i found that it doesn't work as well. Thanks for you comments and feedback.
Holy **** hectic this map is GOOD! ill download for sure this hase so much athsetics and architecture with in it do you mind if i snag some pictures from it for my list?!?
Haha. Once again feel free to do what you want with the pics. I take it you want the bridge in the back? Thanks for all the feedback guys.
Alright kool. I figured everybody would like that bridge. damn it took a long time though. I will keep you updated on new maps. I might be releasing a new one this week but its scaring me how little time its taking. Let me know what you think of gameplay.
Thanks for the ratings guys. What did you mean 4.9/5 because its on foundry. gah! sandbox isn't THAT great. Ohwell. Keep me posted gameplay and what you think.
I really like the idea you have of the cross CTF sort of thing. Having the plant points separate from where the flag spawns are was a really good idea that did what you wanted it to... spread gameplay out throughout the map. You have some very neat forging and the layout is very nice. I like how you blocked off Foundry different than most people do. Nice map... hope to see more from you in the future.
I'm sorry but there have been a bunch of spams on this post. Other wise, looks like a decent flowing map. I would just recommend adding some more pictures so we can see what the rest of your map looks like. Based on your screenshots 4.5/5
Hey hectic! I had a lot of fun playing this with you! You did a great job forging. your gonna have to show me how to do some of that stuff. im not the greatest at interlocking and all that. Feature NOW!
What spams did you notice on this map. Im not trying to if it looks like it. I am just thanking the people that commented and im trying to get opinions on gameplay. Im not intentionally spamming random things to get it bumped up again. I meant that in no way. I find it very gay when people do that to there maps. And to your comment on the screenshots, I have 18 here so there isn't much that i can do to show you more of it. If you want to see the whole thing you should just download it. I did the best that I could in terms of giving you a good idea for the map. Also, I would like to thank everyone that came to the second test of the map. Overall i got Really good feedback and All i really need to fix is the fact that it is escapable in spots here and there. I will probably release a v2 when i get done with my current projects.
Dude I think I drooled a bit. Your post says the days of Foundry are supposed to be over and I say bullocks. Your map is a little more evidence that foundry can still live strong. Plus Foundry is way easier to get some really good looking stuff. I just don't like the look of Sandbox myself. Don't ever stop forging Foundry. You've done wicked good stuff with it. Also, I would love to know how you got that bridge back there! You should post a Tut vid if you can.
