The fighting that actually did happen in the middle was useless. It didn't help either team, it was just a DM fest.
Green is the path the majority took, yellow is the other path they couldve taken.
Both greens are far apart, no conflict between 2 greens ever happens.
This is why no one takes the yellow path to the intel. You have to pass their freakin' spawn twice!
And what puts the final nail in the coffin for the yellow path is the huge advantage the green path gives you. Ledge that watches the door into it and a medium health. Perfect sentry spot.

To be perfectly honest, I feel like doing a complete re-make. New bases, new mid, new everything. While keeping with the general shape of course. As it is now, I can hardly change the mid drastically without changing the bases, and vice versa. So a re-make would be good, get everything flowing better. Thought's on that? I get Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday off school, so I could get it done then if I did.
Do it. The current build did not provide any (little) excitement. People just capped and capped, after awhile I felt completely disconnected from the game that was going on.. and my killing efforts made no differance because they popped back up in my face if I tried to move inside the bases,

Alpha 11 Released!
EDIT: My 500th post as well
- Removed the side route, to further make the mid more useful.
- Removed Health on the side ramps, before the drop down
- Made the corner of the mid area, a ramp area
- Raised the area where the old side route was and added a medium ammo kit

I really dislike how you removed the side exit, it means spawncamping is now inevitable. It also means snipers have a HUGE sightline from the main base exit all the way into the area where you used to have a doorway on the enemy's base.

For the first point, it's a compromise I'm gonna have to make. Spawncamping, if anything may be less as the side exit didn't stop people spawn camping, it just made it easier for them to get to the enemy spawn.
At the second point, err, you got a screenshot?

Exit spawn. You can either take the right exit which has you intel and stuff, or the left "main" exit. This door is a ridiculous choke point if demos are on the mid, and as soon as you open the door, you're free to be sniped from straight ahead of you where there's a stupidly long sightline

I was thinking about how to use the middle more, and how to maybe streamline gameplay when it hit me, put the intel there, I have no idea if this is going to work on not, but lets hope so.
- Changed Game Mode to invade ctf

I foresee rapid quick caps because of how close the Intel is to the cap. :S

I asked zpq first, and I never go round to re-hauling it. So meh, life happened in between and I came up with that idea. I'm gonna see how well it works.
