The Station Created by Die Lawn Viva Supported Gametypes: -Team Slayer -Slayer -Swat Map Description Battle it out with you friends in this abandoned train station! Created in foundry, this symmetrical map offers a great opportunity to have fun, intense slayer-based games. Fight in the inside of the train, under it on the tracks, on the platforms, in the parking lots, at the entrance, or even on top of the train! You can jump down to the tracks from the platforms or get to them through access tunnels from the parking lot. I have two varients of this map: one for slayer, complete with equipment and powerups and one for swat with the equipment and powerups taken out. An overview of the 'yellow' side of the map, complete with the train in the center. Cross the tracks or go through the train to get from platform to platform. Enter the station through the abandoned ticket checkpoints. Enter the train from the platforms. Fight it out inside the train. Drop down under the train and suprise your foes from the tracks! Get to the tracks through access tunnels from the ground level. Use grav lifts at each end of the tracks to get back up onto the train. I hope you all enjoy this map, I would love to hear any feedback or suggestions for it! Download The Station Download The Station SWAT Varient Download Team SWAT
Re: The Station: Fight it out in an abandoned train station! I really like the looks of this, unfortunately my Live has gone through the craper so a review will have to wait. I'll come back with an updated opinion when I'm able.
Re: The Station: Fight it out in an abandoned train station! Great I'm looking forward to hearing any reviews of The Station.
Re: The Station: Fight it out in an abandoned train station! Holy crap that looks good. Can you crouch under the train? Also, downloading.
Re: The Station: Fight it out in an abandoned train station! This looks like a definite S.W.A.T. map. I'd advise you to change your subject to just The Station instead of The Station: Fight it out in an abandoned train station! before a mod changes it for you. Nice work though.
Re: The Station: Fight it out in an abandoned train station! Thanks for the advice, will do. Also, thanks for the positive feedback guys!
Nice idea, very original! It looks like you've put a lot of detail into this map, from the Ticket floors to the Train Doors (PUN'D!). I really like how well thought out this idea is, as I would've forgotten all about the ticket booths and such. Nice first post, keep up the good work.
Well thanks, I find a lot of foundry maps I play are very cluttered or complicated. With this map, I had a simple idea in mind and tried to stick to it. There is no secret rooms or teleporters. No shield doors. I think it will play very competetivly and balanced. I'll try to get on MLG version done this week.
Looks very cool but i noitced in the shots that a lot of ur objects are very messy looking and not lined up u might want to straighten them up a bit, it will make it look even better. cool idea though.
Good job on the map. I really like the layout of this map, you've done a good job in creating a map that actually feels like what the creator is trying to depict, in this case a trainstation. There's a couple of things you could improve on however. You should use interlocking more than you have done to smooth out things and make the map more aesthetically pleasing. You should also try to align boxes and walls, I'm pretty OCD about that kind of thing . On the weaponry there's good news and there's bad news. The good news is that you've placed alot of weapons at the players disposal. The bad news is that you've placed alot of weapons at the players disposal. It makes the map feel cluttered at times when you're walking up to your knees in rifles and nades. But hey, I'm just being nitpicky. I would really like to see that you remake this map in the future, because I really like the overall layout but as of know it isn't quite there. Keep up the good work and I hope we'll get to see more maps from you. Peace // gorebound
Really? It reminds me of that level from an obscure game no one plays. In Soviet Russia, the Map reviews I!
Thanks for the feedback guys! I will try cleaning it up and possibly reducing the weapon clutter. As of now, I have 3 base power weapons: Sword, Shotty, and Sniper. (S cubed?) Does anyone have an opinion on if I should remove one of these, or remove some of the nades, BRs, and ARs?
I think the BR abundance is ok, but you could delete one on each side and it might be a little better. I don't specifically recall too many grenades, but I think people usually put more nades on the map than are necessary. I definitely liked the layout of this map. After looking at the pics, I was not expecting much. I thought there'd be some boxes dividing two bases, but there is a lot more than that. You set up plenty of ways to move around the map vertically, so I like that. I also think that the ticket area or whatever was a nice touch. The symmetry seems very good, the interlocking is nice, and I like the use of respawn areas in the CTF gametype (I didn't look at the others). But why oh why do I have to start the game staring right at a fence wall?!? It's like the first feeling I get from the map when I load it up is a feeling of being restricted. Did you forget to move the starting points, or is there reason that you did that? Overall it looks fun, and I'd like to play a game of multi-flag CTF here.
hey man nice work on this map it looks really well thought out. Ive tried making a train station before but failed horribly lol. Nice job on succeeding in what i failed at
I DL'ed this map man and my first thought was great another wall map, but the floor underneath the train was really cool. this will be a map I will keep man good job.
