Looking cool it seems to blend 2 styles of map with a new one.
It reminds be of cashworks and that map with the giant backburner-like cart.
Like the style dude

only major gameplay issue I see with b4 is red getting stuck in their own FIRST spawn after the second cap.. instead of being teleported to last spawn. otherwise :thumbup1:

I'll think about it... I tried the teleport thing but it just seemed unnatural...(So i removed it, while working on b4.) Possibly i'll make something creative in the next minor version. :O

My server uses B3 still, and I'm just curious. Is the sentry gun on cart exploit still in the newer builds, and was that intentional?

It still there. I'll figure out a way to fix it sooner or later.

Edit:

I do have a solution for it. I'll fix it once, i'm done with b4a.

If that does not work a nobuild block might.

6 Month Bump! For a reason though!

Since summer started, i finally got to back to work on this. Beta 5 is coming at the end of the month.

Adding more balance in some areas and fixing some mistakes that are still there from past versions and much more...

I'm excited and determined!

 

[Sgt.Sausage]

Woot, i really want to play this again, i havent played it since their was so many props it was hard to move and the the fps was bad.

But you said you fixed that so il be following this map.

 

[Dr. Spud]

I've played this map a number of times now. It's really fun, but I wish it wasn't so goofy. The giant beer bottle and the crazy looking cart detract from what's otherwise a fairly sophisticated map.

 

[The Political Gamer]

Most of the complaints of have seen is that the last point is a dull spam fest and that you more or less how to spawn camp to win it.

Removed The Infamous Bottleneck Tunnel Of Blood (The Tunnel In Front Of The Final Cap)

Edit:

I decided to delay beta 5 until the 7th of August. I still need re-optimize the map, so it uses less occluders and utilize the hint brush a bit more. Being sidetracked by other games, the artpass contest, and family events coming up next week, I have no time to plan a release on the 31st.

But, i can assure you, Beta 5 will be the biggest change since, b3a.

Edit:

Released Early.

Updated OP: The Change Log will expand once i remember what i did...

We tested this map last night and while we found the map itself is greatly improved, it seems a lot easier to get stuck on the cart, mostly on the front -- just by jumping or in some cases walking into it. If you fix this, I think this map would be great. As it is, that makes it somewhat unplayable.

Long walks, long respawn, just generally not fun. Shorten the walk distance and fix the respawn times so that you can actually spend a little longer fighting instead of walking to your destination.
