A map in planning that uses the MVM game mode!

It is a transition from a swamp area to Mann Co.'s Factory!

This is only being submitted for feedback on the layout, I don't want to start adding in all of the robots until the map itself is at least decent......

Well, it's hard to judge a layout from just looks, especially MvM. The gameplay of the map is greatly influenced by the type of bots in the popfile, e.g. whether it has lots of scouts, mostly heavies and soldiers, or whatever else. You should get out a playable version so people can test it out and give more accurate feedback.

From what I see though, it looks like the "chokes" are still very open, and the high ground doesn't seem high enough in areas (2nd screenshot).

The map looks very large and open, particularly in the last two screenshots.

Also, I'm not really diggin' the dark and murky lighting.

I was thinking about changing the lighting to an early dawn, or maybe something else

Those numbers dont realy say alot. It heavily depends on the way you use them. Posting the code of the popfile itself would be more effective (use the [code] tags though when you do so as it keeps the tab/spaces in place so it shows in a neat way).

And it would be ideal if you only show such numbers to at least make it as an image (screenshot at each wave and merging them together in just 1 screen).

Also, here is the url of the feedback i gave earlier:

I used your feedback in a lot of the newer version of this map, adding in various things that make the robots go along a different path then before. Of course this is far from completion but I plan on making the next version have the game logic to run.....

For the purposes of map testing (and if you're feeling too lazy), use one of the valve missions (bigrock, coaltown, decoy, mannworks) on your map using "tf_mvm_popfile <mission name>.pop" on the server console.

If you do that and upload a nav file as well, then it would be way easier to give feedback.
