Well, decided I should actually show some screenshots this time before attempting an imp/ game day.
Here's some (semi) new geometry for koth_echelon:

Let me know what you think.

Tip: 2 minutes compiling is always worth it for the screenshots, its so hard to understand depth in hammer screenshots.
From what I can see, its all indoors. I tried an entirely indoors map once. Doesn't work. Ceilings and corridors make for really spammy and cramped gameplay space. I suggest ripping those roofs off, widening up those rooms.
And hadal does it right because if you tore off the roof and put a skybox there it'd play exactly the same. At very few real gameplay points do you hit a roof.
imo indoor map is a theme decision not a gameplay one. So you can, like, have there a skybox in alpha and in beta decide for it to be like Hadal. And for sure it's bad when a general ceiling gets in the way of how it plays. Would also refer to Abyss and Hadal.
I think the roofs look weird because the lower one appears to be intersecting through the volume of the taller building, which doesn't make sense. The second screenshot might be playing tricks on my eyes, but it looks like the lower roof is also sloped in multiple directions, which is really unusual.
I'd be interested in seeing what (if any) reference pictures this is based on, because the roof style is gonna depend a lot on the climate/culture. If there's not a lot of rain, shallow roofs with no hip/gable fit the bill just right. If this is higher income housing (or the climate is rainier) then steeper/nicer looking roofs are what you want.

More pictures of a map i will probably never finish(working on it since 2-3 years i guess)
Needs to be changed, dont like it at all how it is currently
And yes covers/crates/stones whatever is missing. Spawn door cant be sniped from the house on the right bottom since there are crates
At least the red spawn looks now better than last time as seen here:

Some day i will finish it(ᶰᵒᵗ), which will maybe take some years.

I think it's been around a year since I started working on Holcan, and today I finally figured out some of the last few layout issues I've been having. Now I just have to finish the dang thing and seal it.
Here's the Hallway From Hell™ that was the largest issue. It looks simple now, but it was a pain trying to figure out how exactly it worked. It'll probably have to be rebuilt anyway.
Here's a yearly reminder of the intel room as well, I don't think anything has changed since last time I showed it off, but it still looks cool. There's supposed to be torch particles by @Exactol, but I didn't have them installed on this computer when I took the picture. Whoops. Tryin' to get those that few likes to reach veteran, don't judge me!
I want to try and make more time for mapping, but you know, college and stuff.

My crazy notes and sketch of the areas I want to redesign asap. Im not sure about the ramp maybe area. It would have the door on mid be used to get to the raised pink sections on both teams. Thoughts? Alligator suggested the blue area and it solves some issues I was running into. Red is removed, Blue/pink is new. Black is keeping.

A player destruction map:
The resupply room.
The courtyard
Any thoughts?

It's looking a bit too big for me. Player destruction maps should limit the amount of time it takes for a person to get to the middle, as then more fighting can happen in a given time period.
