Excuse me that I spawncamped in red spawn, stage 3, I won't do it again in your map or another.

Beside that, I really want to see the first stage + a full detailled map.

Oh yeah, I didn't told you this in the steam chat: Please clip the bridge at stage 3 (with the medium health kit on), it's very small to walk over it, and I got stuck everytime I hitted the side things (with those metal things covered).

• Second stage: There were some sight-length issues. When you're down in the pit-area, there's actually a visible "black fog" effect looking back towards the spawns.
• Second stage: I'm not generally a fan of two spawns facing each other that way. Maybe a short wall between the two carts?
• First stage: Needs to be easier to get from spawn to the enemy finish-line to defend it.
• Spawn issues, as mentioned.
• Final stage "tracks in midair" difficult to follow.

Other than that, it plays pretty briskly with plenty of side paths

Just to clear things up for DaBeatz. Only Stage 2 and 3 are in the current version.

 

[Terr]

Er, yeah. The stages that were in game-day. However many

Will fix this issue, thanks

I'm currently working on the spawn thing, but I'm not quite sure how i'll fix the deathpit blackness problem. Probably I'll just get rid of the fog anyways.

I'm not sure how I can make it more clear to players to take the sideways. Maybe a big sign or a full health kit could do the trick. I'm open for suggestions.


I'm glad you all like the map, and thanks Psy for clearing that out.

We just played the map, I think it ran pretty smooth. Thoughts?

 

[The Gentlemanne]

Snipers giving hell during setup time(second round)...so could you like put pipes in the way or any form of barriers,'cause its too easy for them to kill anyone unsuspecting.

 

[DaBeatzProject]

Alright, stage one is blocked out:

And the custom cart is finished too!

Now it's only the entities and ammo/health that have to be done! Yay!

 

[Hellfire]

waitin waitin for release

 

[Waif]

Haha that cart is cool.
At first I thought (sarcastically) , wow, a plain box on cart, thats pretty epic.
Then I saw the eyes and and the box jiggiling.
Love it.

Whats the back story

 

[DaBeatzProject]

Hmmm, I'm still thinking about it, but I think it might get clearer later, when everything's sorted out.
The most I can say is that there will be a Mann Co. Factory at the beginning of the map. Mann Co. has produced two prototype products (The Boxes are from Mann Co.: The BLU one contains a bacarat detector and the RED one has microfilm suits in it) and the teams modified them to their needs. As you can see in the vid, they unleashed...
The Living Mann Co. Box of Pain and Death.

*dramatic music*

:O

Oh gawd, that's an awesome cart. I don't think you'll get shifted around when you're standing on top of it, would you?

Nope, you can stand on it without any shaky problems.

 

[Fraz]

Does it shift on your own team's cart as well? Btw, sexy box is sexy

 

[Zeewier]

Thanks

Anyway any suggestions for the cart are welcome
