I am working on Desert Ruins. It is groupings of ruins merged in the outer dunes of sandbox, six groups in all. Many people may have seen my earlier unmerged version. However, now coming to the weapon and vehicle placement stage of the map, I have no clue what weapons would be best, I'm sure about all warthogs, scorpions and wraiths being place and adding snipers but I have no clue where. Any ideas or advice on this would be great.
Pictures would be very helpful so we could see what style of map it is in terms of LoS and height differences. Right now, all I can discern is that there are some ruins and you're wondering which vehicles to place on the map. No one would be able to help you make this decision unless they had a broader idea of what the map is like. And also put pics up 'cause I'm intrigued.
I'll help you place you weapons and vehicles. Just do what AceOfSpades said and upload some screenshots. I would recommend a bird's eye view of the map, this way we can see the entire thing in one picture. If you can't put up images right now then just send me a temporary friend request and I'll join as soon as I get on.
Yeah but when its some ruins its normally brute weapon ! But you can but some br and rocket or sniper !
Imagine dropping about twenty or so sandbox pieces in a small area, now think of having all of these merged at angles to support the defence of that area, with pieces about scorpion to warthog width apart (I have specifically measured these). Six such areas are placed around the map and a pyrimid surrounded by other ruins in the center. I will add screen shots as soon as I can. I actually have decided on a laser on the pyramid and a scorpions in primitive tent-like structures. Like most of my maps I will playtest this for a few months to refine everything, but I need some ideas on general weapon placement.
