A2 Changelog:

  • blu spawns are now not broken(hopefully)

BLU spawn to A:

  • Added cover to side flank

A to B:

  • Added more cover to areas near the area around A
  • Added additional flank for blu to gain height advantage before the ramp
  • Blu first forward spawn now has side exit, can fall into water to swim out to battlement

B to C:

  • Slight adjustment to cart path (moved to the left by like, 100ish hu)

C to finale:
  • Widened and straightened side route right after C point area on the left
  • Replace indoor bridge at the top connecting C building to the uppper route near finale with a balcony drop down
  • Red now spawns where they would spawn coming out to C, except facing towards the old spawn doors for finale

a6 Change log:

  • Remade the entire map
The focus this time around is at making:
  1. Map less cramped
  2. Push times to be shorter
  3. Less sightline heavy(hopefully?)
Anyway this took 2 months to make and came after almost 8 months since the last update hope I still got this

Problems noticed in the play test:
  • Confusing routing, perhaps even way too many routes, some routes just go beyond the cart path instead of flowing players back into it
  • Teams feeling scattered, can't effectively group up in fights
General solution to problems:
  • Cut down and modify on the pathing
  • Up the spawnwave time so teams could start spawning in more groups more

a6a Update:

Blu Spawn to A:
  • Redid side route of the curve downward ramp, now it cuts off and has a path leading to a cylindrical building, which replaces the grain silo that was there before
  • Red now has a balcony above the cart track entrance to A, that connects to the now opened up silo building and the back area of A
  • Redid the back area behind A, for red it's now a drop off ledge instead of being connected to the area directly.
  • Redid the building at the base of the spiral ramp, the previous entrance leading to a prop jump closer to the door of the A building is now only a drop off ledge for red, the more further back angled building with the prop jump is now the only way for blu to enter that part of the map
  • Redid the room besides the A cp, giving red more highground and cutting off connection for blu with the short stairs, now blu has to take the long stairs after the point
  • Removed plank connecting the highground above A, seeing that one the exit is now used for blu drop off and if blu goes that way, it would lead to the new drop down, adding more confusion in navigation and two, less need for red to rotate between those two points(also it was a point of contention with potential long sitghtlines)

Hopes for the changes here:
  • Red gets more ground to defend A on
  • Blu doesn't get confused as to where to go later on passing through A

A to B:
  • Shortened side building beisde cart path right after A, hopefully giving blu a better position to the cart
  • Redid room right after A cap, now it no longer leads directly to red battlement areas, must go through upstairs to get there, alternatively, the new path that leads back to the cart path
  • Side route besides the cart path going up is now connected to the red battlement area
  • Building above the side route now is opened up more, drop down ledge is now moved to where there used to only be a window
Hopes for the changes here:
  • Routes being more defined and helpful to blu
  • Routes being more clear to red
B to C:
  • Adjusted the lower Blu forward spawn door exit height to make sure it is not at the aboslute low ground
  • Added signs and door to railroad blu coming out from the forward spawn into the cart path instead of going back to A
  • Removed route below red's forward spawn, to reduce the chance that red could just get to blu forward spawn without being noticed
  • Shortened lower exit path to lead blu closer out to the cart path
  • Lowered the roof above that path that used to be there because there were changes to the water level
  • Opened up the side route that leads to a highground beside the point, it's now less sheltered and more exposed for blu to use and for red to spot and counteract
  • Closed off building routing in front of red spawn to hopefully railroad red to C instead of finale
Hopes for the changes here:
  • Again with routes being closer to the cart path and more ground for red to defend
  • More route clarity and less blu team scattering
C to finale:
  • Opened up Finale building and added roof to hopeful define its shape more
  • Added highground building for blu to shoot into red finale, with lower path for further cover for blu with the new slightly opened up finale
  • Closed off the weird gated room leading to a drop off for blu, the path to the angled building is now extended to meet that highground building
  • Adjusted routing placement at the highground right side of the cart path
  • Building beside the right side of the cart path has changes, a ledge that red team used to be able to crouch jump up to it's now a solid drop off for blu team, denying easy access to blu spawn for red
  • Adding new drop spot for red team to rush to the cart path closer to the end of the track
Hopes for the changes here:
  • Again with routes being closer to the cart path and more ground for red to defend
  • More route clarity and less blu team scattering

Problems noticed during a6b playtest:
Red still not gaining enough ground for defending
Blu constantly able to flank Red, making red defenses useless
Walk times from spawn may be affecting how areas are held and gained

a6c update:


General:

Added one extra forward spawn for each team:
  • Red now has a forward spawn closer to A that closes after A is capped
    20210330150334_1.jpg
  • Blu now has a forward spawn closer to C that opens after C is capped20210330150937_1.jpg 20210330150931_1.jpg 20210330150927_1.jpg

Blu Spawn to A:

  • Adjusted spawn exits slightly
  • Added red high ground drop down in the back courtyard of A
  • Raised blu route to a high ground ledge
  • (to avoid area being used as a battleground when it should be slightly more safe for blu coming out form spawn)
20210330150227_1.jpg
  • Added more high ground for red in front of A
20210330150319_1.jpg

Potential issue on the mind:

A has this issue where A is capped and blu still is unable to push pass the area, the thing about capture points is that once blu should be able to capture the point it should signify that they have control of the area, it's concerning that blu will be having this issue. Another thing is that capture points usually should be at the end of an area, to compound the fact that blu have control over that area.

For future versions capture point might need to be reconsidered to be either pushed outside the building, further ahead in the track or the spot before it gets pushed into the building.


A to B:

  • Added route to let blu flow better into battlements after A is capped
20210330150311_1.jpg 20210330150301_1.jpg 20210330150528_1.jpg
  • Adjusted middle flank route routing more, now opening into A building
20210330174956_1.jpg
  • Adjusted left side route due to adding new red forward spawn
  • Old high ground room on the right of the cart path has now been opened up for red to settle on
20210330150325_1.jpg
  • Extended ground for left building, covering the low ground next to B to give red more ground to defend on

20210330150344_1.jpg

B to C:

  • Replaced on rotation route in the back of the left building on the cliffs with more ground for red to defend on and a drop down for red
20210330150403_1.jpg 20210330150412_1.jpg 20210330150417_1.jpg
  • Covered up spot behind the point where red could camp with a sentry and Blu has a hard time retaliating against
20210330150647_1.jpg

C to finale:

  • Adjusted the room that unlocks after C is capped to remove the angled stairs
  • Added high ground for red to use for defending more forward
20210330150440_1.jpg
  • Added high ground building for Blu to use at finale, routing currently runs through red sightline for Blu to get to the stairs of the building
