Play it!
Feedback?

EDIT: playable on the PSYX Servers. Thanks Spike.

Some cover in the 50 area might be good. Like the ramp there.
The map might benefit from a hagar.

New Beta.
Gameplay is updated. Please playtest it.

I agree with Smilecythe, I think that long corridor is too long. Not much going on there. I really like the smaller area with the mega armour, and when I spawned there I had hoped that most of the map was like that (I do have a bias towards small maps).

To be honest my biggest issue is the 50 room (the one also with the jump pad). I can't quite say why. I think it's because the rest of the map is smaller, more intricate, and then on the other end you have this big room with not many ledges, long corridor, etc.



Obviously don't delete that entire part as that would leave two dead ends, but maybe take that part and rework the design of it completely.

FYI, this is a remake of a Q3/Live/4 map Phrantic and is built to resemble it deliberately:



Q4: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UQmhJl87K6M

I personally prefer the scaling, layout and item distribution of CPMA more. But each to their own.

Beta 4 has arrived.
Thanks to all who have played tested. Now there are some major gameplay updates.
It's a mixture of q3, q4, ql and some own ideas.

Please playtest and update it on the servers! Thanks and thanks in advance!

After some playtesting and feedback from others i would tend to say the layout is final.
The question now would be how to texture the map:

that's what the mega armor room looks like.

That looks great, cortez! I'll do a map walkthrough video soon.

Early June update:

Teleporter 1 entrance

Teleporter 2 entrance 

Teleporter 2 exit

Loving the look of this! Keep it up.

Lava only deals damage on entering the pool (or jumping in it). Standing in it longer, no damage will be inflicted.

This isn't intentional is it?
I noticed it in the center room on the 2 pools that surround the walkway.

shouldnt be the case. Everytime i get in the lava i get damaged.

some sort of update.

b4: Same thing happens with lava for me on the center room. It only deals damage when I float on the surface, (enter or leave) but if my feet touch the ground it stops dealing damage. The lava next to 100a seems to work properly though.

Also, is there any reason why teleporter exits throw you airborne? It makes movement more wonky. You should be in control of your footwork when you exit, especially when you exit on top of a floor.

Dunno why, but the lava issue is fixed.

mid june update

Nice work, Cortez

Looks quite a lot like that Volls map, which I find a tiny bit disappointing - but at the same time I get to see how that style has evolved.

Beta 5 has arrived
https://www.dropbox.com/s/tdi9e9k2wf8vxx...5.pk3?dl=0
The main change is, i textured the map. There is no spaceholder concrete.
There are still some things to do, but i would like to know if you have some suggestions and if there are any problems regarding the performance.

Got  opinions from Komier. The map version was b4, but I assume nothing changed except the lava fix and the added textures.

Every placement has its advantages and disadvantages

the reason why i chose another weapon which consumes cells is simple. it weakens the lg, so you have to decide which weapon uses the cells.

Well, this never happend to me, even against player with a much higher skill level.

Take a look at the placed items. Armor and health are almost identcal. The only difference is the mega armor and the health is regenerating.
I played several games and didnt had any real issues.

Quote:Every placement has its advantages and disadvantages

The idea wasn't the placement. The idea was that if you were going fast around the map and wanted to route to the 50H then jump across the gap to the 50A, you couldn't unless you stopped for a bit or slowed yourself down.

Quote:the reason why i chose another weapon which consumes cells is simple. it weakens the lg, so you have to decide which weapon uses the cells.

Well ok, can't really argue with that. Playstyle-wise and anecdotally the Crylink is disliked enough to be abstained from generally, or unpopular enough to be ignored in favor of Electro secondary spam; in a way it's like another pack of cells. But this is just general weapon balance that isn't very related to this thread.

Just because it never happened to you, doesn't mean it can't happen.

This was the map it was compared to.

Nice map, I like its atmosphere.
Decent size for a duel map.
I haven't played real matches here yet, so I can't judge item placement.

Final version is playable on psyx servers.

Two small things, though:


If you stay on the very left, you can go behind this teleporter and see missing textures.


Axial symmetry looks wrong on this door >:)

A very good map, well done cortez, once again
u is king uisking uking u

Map walkthrough time!

Well done, Cortez and good job, Antibody! Solid work folks, as always!
