Am I going too overboard with foliage?
Am I going too overboard with foliage?
All these screenshots seem to make your map look very small! I would seriously consider slowing down on the detail until you've got the scale a little better.
I think I'll be fine size-wise.
Oh hey, look whats in the featured workshop submissions for TF2:
pretty happy with how D is looking
C has had a few changes as well
and E is starting to shape up nicely
Nice work, I like the layering in this.
I'm afraid though that you're going to have decent macro-gameplay, but your micro-gameplay is lacking. Get some crates, or something to use for cover in there. Things that players can use to quickly get a slight, localized height adventage on. Props for scouts to skip around on, and for spys to on-the-fly swap disguises or cloak.
Based just on the screenshot, it looks like C isn't really the focal point of its area. It may help to put it on some concrete platform to draw attention to it.pretty happy with how D is looking

yeah definitely going to get onto that, atm i'm focusing on getting the major shapes down
Too small. Real payload is 2x that size. Looks like you don't have many flanks or real side routes

It is about half the size of Badwater, yes, but that's kinda what I was going for.
Be aware, it will probably not be much fun to play.
Professionally-made markings. Blue lines are currently available routes, purple are routes I'm planning to add. Red is for RED's spawn.
You were probably already going to change this, but I feel the texture could use more wear and tear, and more gray colors instead of a solid blue. (Talking about the ray gun and the teslas).
First models for tf2 done!
Now to figure out why the collision model on the concave cap platform is all messed up :v
You could simplify that greatly. make the rounder parts half as complex and small details can be simplified down quite a bit

When I make Collision models I tend to make a simple model around it then use that to make the collision rather then the 'real model itself' you will learn work arounds and little tips along the way, I've been modeling for source for a while now if you need some help you can add me on steam and I'll try my best 
Source lighting, why do you always forsake me:
Notice how the cart and viewmodel appear to be lit even when they are in the shadow of that tree.

That area looks way too dark, which can make it hard to see players and recognize their team colors. Lighten that area up.Source lighting, why do you always forsake me:

I know, lighting is just there so that I can test gameplay balance. I'll be working on improving it later. I just found it puzzling that the cart doesnt get shadowed by that tree.
