Ok, i will do this: im gonna treat both maps like maps complety differents the only thing in common they have will be the gamemode and the theme...The original ixem and ixem 2 (the version before this one) were both very cool and unique, especially ixem 2 since the mirrored symmetry on a 2cp arena map hasn't been done before. I think you should continue developing those. They were totally different, and totally awesome.
But Ixem is exactly like byre, start in the same place, have in front the spawn a construction, the CP are in the same places even the size is basically the same!Have you ever compared Snake water to Badlands, or Lakeside to Viaduct? Or Doublecross to 2fort? Such similarities are very common, and ixem does more than those to make itself different.
Sorry to say this but... i dont like continue this map cause its a clon of byre, the layout is the same with the same proportions if i put my map farm theme then looks like a new version of byre.All of those things apply to all three of Lakeside, Viaduct, and Highpass - and nobody complains about them!
...then move on to a new map. KotH, Payload, 5CP, 3CP, A/D, CTF, the whole lot is still available (and always has been).Sorry to say this but... i dont like continue this map cause its a clon of byre, the layout is the same with the same proportions if i put my map farm theme then looks like a new version of byre.
No! NEVER! I will do that gamemodes when i have to do it but now im with a 2CP Arena!...then move on to a new map. KotH, Payload, 5CP, 3CP, A/D, CTF, the whole lot is still available (and always has been).
You can make new gamemodes any time you'd like.No! NEVER! I will do that gamemodes when i have to do it but now im with a 2CP Arena!
Oh, dont worry, i will do but first i need to make a little update before that...You can make new gamemodes any time you'd like.
I believe using Byre's layout is perfectly fine because it works better for the map geometry preventing gameplay issues. And I believe this works well as a good Arena map for a start.
And if you think this map copy's Byre, talk to the maker of Byre and see their opinions.
Finally you see that it was a clone of byre!Did you really make your maps layout identical to Byre? Sure, it was close before, but It was different than Byre. Now it's exactly the same, and now it's bad!
Before, it was changing it up from what Byre did, with different heights and the river. Now, it's just... Byre. And in my opinion, Byre is just crap.
Ixem was good. This map was good. But now, since you've made it Byre, it's bad.
Before nobody says was a copyYou know this is just copying other's content. Just saying.
