killingJoke - Competitive CTF Map Testing

[Shmitz]

I think Deliverance is ready for a more robust test than just pugs: ctf_deliverance_a4

 

[Void]

Wiretap needs some serious testing now, it's doing good, but could use some more testing outside TF2M. A3 in my sig.

 

[Gerbil]

I could really use some more serious testing on ctf_snowsquall_a2.

If you still have clocktower on your rotation, kill it! KILL IT WITH FIRE!

I noticed you uploaded sabotage_a2. _a2 was accidently compiled with the "clip" visgroup off, so there are no clips (you can jump onto all roofs/out of the map). I have rectified this in _a2b. (_a2b also rectifies the lack of respawnroom visualisers). Please update the map before testing

I'm very sorry for the lack of activity but I have some fairly bad news!

Our clan has entered ETF2L and so I can no longer use the private server for testing (with the feedback system anyway, etf2l rules forbid extra plugins like this). We have a 2nd private server (32 slots) which I was planning to use instead, but our clan has agreed that we're losing too much money on that server and so it will also be gone before too long.

I'm truly very sorry for the inconvenience, I will still do my best to get the feedback system to a working state that I consider suitable for public release, in the mean time I could attempt to do public map tests on our public server, though I'm not sure how much good that would be if these maps are aimed at the competitive scene.

I would love to do this once I finally block out my map... I'm so bogged down with work, but my nub map is called ctf_desertridege_falls. Don't put me down yet, but when it's all blocked out I'll give you a heads up!

 

[Jindo]

Read the post above yours, I'm very sorry for the inconvenience.

 

[Jindo]

ETF2L season is almost over so I might be able to get the private server back for map testing in the nearish future. It would probably be more appropriate at that time since these maps will be a lot further in development!

I'll let you know more when I'm more filled in on what's going on, in the mean time I'd rather not accept any more maps until I've tested the ones on the list.

Well we only have 3 weeks left and most people are all but done with their contest maps. :S The feedback would help greatly but I don't know if there is enough time to test and get the feedback applied to the maps by the time the contest is over.

 

[Jindo]

Oh, haha.

I wasn't aware the contest was so close to finishing, my mistake!

It would take a bit of preparation to arrange for the competitive 6v6 tests amongst my community, so I guess I'll stick to testing the maps myself. I'll also see if anyone in kJ is interested in joining in on game days or testing sessions in general!

Talk to Ravidge -profile link- -steam page-

and look at this thread: http://forums.tf2maps.net/showthread.php?t=12745

Ravidge seems the most ontop of setting up 6vs6 for map testing at the moment. Besides Flame.

Just a heads up Jindo, if you're going to test my map sometime, make sure to get a13a.

Feels like an eternity since a6b.
probably because it has been an eternity, eh?
