After learning lots from my first map, cp_dusk, I am now making another a/d cp map, this time with a thunderstorm (mostly lightning and thunder, little rain) alpine theme.

Hmmm, is this your new map that we had a test on a few weeks back?

That picture reminds me of Dragon Wars.

Anyone seen it? Rocket Dinos are in there and at the end the main character goes to Mordor (actually a little bit away from Los Angeles but still looks like mordor) and then a Dragon Cries and all order is restored :O

Excellent. Also, it looks very good, looking forward to the weather (which I could be enjoying outside at the moment, but I'm not, I'm playing tf2!)

I did find the layout enjoyable. I have a few doubt about the mega health pack on the first CP and the very protected onlooking coner on CP 2-1, though. On the 5v5 playtest, it was quite a bit defended. With two enginners and/or an airblasting pyro, I foresse this as quite difficult to overcome.

Looked it up on Google, and yes it is... thus... there will be opals... somewhere.

the last cp should be upon a mountain of them!

So I just played it, I really liked the layout. I can't wait to see what you will put in the skybox by those windows in the second stage.
Looking forward it!

Gameday thoughts.

As Engineer, I did find metal to be a bit scarce, especially in the 3rd stage. I think some of the low ammopacks could be medium instead. Just my opinion anyway.

I also think the respawn time could be raised a bit to prevent the constant spammy battle occurring.

But apart from that, I think it plays very well. A bit spammy, but I guess that's what you get with 24 players. Keep it up :)
