RE: [DM] Above - Lord Canistra - 05-25-2011
Visuals look pretty, and judging by size and layout that's just what one could need for a few player ctf match. This definitely should be included into official mappack.
RE: [DM] Above - nowego4 - 05-25-2011
Hmm, feels a bit to open to be official... I haven't played it online yet but it seems like once a decent player gets ahold of the railgun, they can hit anywhere on the map and the jumpads become deathtraps.
This also happens to be why I don't like Space Elevator.
Not that it's a bad map... far from it... but it needs some serious playtesting before we make decisions about it.
RE: [DM] Above - Rage_ATWM - 05-25-2011
same concern as nowego.
RE: [DM] Above - Lord Canistra - 05-25-2011
Should there even be such weapons as nex and sniper rifle on this map? Or is there some "full weapon placement" requirement?
RE: [DM] Above - noobermin - 05-28-2011
Place the nex somewhere hidden like it is in "grassoline", the gasoline powered nexuiz map remake (the remake not also in nexuiz). That way, it isn't a fuckfest to rush for the nex, etc.
Otherwise, this map seems like a great map for dm at least. And it is fucking gorgeous.

i decied to rename those maps (because it could be a bit confusing), two-platform version will be called "Above_small" and three-platform verion will be called simply "Above"

From what I know, the classic naming design when there are two versions of a map is calling the normal one "map" and the larger one "map_ctf". That might be better perhaps. Not sure if _small or _large are the best names to give to a map usually.
RE: [DM] Above - kuniu the frogg - 06-04-2011
but none of them is ctf, you know
the only difference at the moment is the number of platforms (and domination support for bigger version). Also 3-platform version is in autobuild and 2-platform is not, so basically, 3-platform one is "main" version, that's why it's called "Above" now.
