Frisket 07-10-2004 04:57 PM MDT Rating: 6   A good starting map for a new mapper. I think you have potential as a mapper, but you should try to make the player feel like he/she is actually in it, i.e. make the level to scale and add more eye candy. I don't think you need any help with the bot pathing, since I didn't see any problems. One last thing you could do would be to resize the textures to fit the level and make it feel more intimate. You're off to a good start, Xtrife. quillion 07-10-2004 07:31 PM MDT Rating: 2.5   the only thing i liked about this map is the jump pad Architecture and thats it. layout is okish but tbh here, i hate those textures and the shape of the brushes. If this is a 1st map then good on you for it, but like all our work, we must get better. HF with it;) GTD-Carthage 07-11-2004 01:35 AM MDT Rating: 4   Nice map for a new mapper although the textures don't fit together and the lights are to generic. But at least there are jump-pads!

It just slows down the flow too much, and you'll just be an easy taget for whoever awaits you at the exit. - The middle part is way too open. Since the spawning happens here almost all the time, right next to miniguns/flak cannons and rocket launchers, the level will be too spammy too much of the time, making capturing all but impossible. The shieldbelt and megahealth are woth nothng since it takes a much longer time to get them than it takes to shoo the protection away they give, since the miniguns are so close. Make the water a lot more accessable, not so deep, and make the passages shorter. Also link them with passages instead of teleporters to discourage campers and increase the flow and logic. In any case, reduce the time you have to be in the water. Where is the sniper in this level? It would mean a huge decrease in spam. Make a few more rooms at both of the flags. Spam makes it way too easy to defend/attack. Use the power of the computers nowadays. More detailed architecture would be nice. Decrease the lighting and add sources from which the light comes. This adds to the mood (it's night in the skybox, but the map looks as if it's day). Get rid of the prominent standard white lighting. That's all i can think of atm :P
