WiP in WiP, post your screenshots!

I think you should read up on TF2 design theory (both gameplay design and detailing) on the developer wiki or in our tutorials section. That map looks like it's pretty solid skill-wise, so I think you just need to delve a little deeper into what makes a TF2 map a TF2 map. Still, excellent work.

Thanks, and will do...

I think everyone should stop spoiling the surprises.

If every April Fools map is a bunch of saw blades it will be a shitty surprise.

If you want to tear it apart... It now has a thread in the map showcase... (didn't know about that part of the forum... first time here...)

Gentlemen, next week we raid ...the congo.

Hmm. It appears I favor that formation of stairs and doors. I did not even realize those two areas of the map are that similar.

 

[PlipPlop]

Two sets of stairs are better than one.

It certainly looks nice but ...

When I saw those screenshots, at first I thought I was looking at the two teams' versions of the same area. And I was like, well, that's certainly creative.

In the first screenshot, the power conduit thing standing on it's own, and having the cable that's supposed to go up into a roof going up to no where really bugs me, At least put it on a pole or something >.>

Congo was already in many playtests and impromptus before I gave it an aesthetic overhaul. I've done little to change the overall layout of the map because it was received quite positively for an SD map.

Oops. I used to have a building up there, but then I was like 'this isn't jungly enough!' and tore it down. I'll go ahead and fix that.

Yes, that pit over there is going to be every pyros' wet-dream. I specifically designed it for this ZF map so they can airblast zombies near them.

Maybe I should add a bridge over it to make it even easier.

BTW, I know this room is a bit plain, but I don't know how to make it less flat without making it contrary to my Egyptian "tomb" theme.
