etri's map(s)

by xdeh Tue Dec 25, 2012 5:55 am

Although I think nobody cares about testing some new maps (hey, why not just play Rawr/Slant/Brutus again so we can nade spawns with our eyes closed?) I made this one just to look at the map from the creator's point of view. Probably someone will notice just by looking at it, that making it took me approximately no more than 90 minutes and this is my first... obviously.
So... what's wrong with it?

That was unexpected. Thank you all, I'm very grateful, but is it 3v3 or 4v4? It was meant to be 3v3, but when I look at it... looks like three and a half babo per team.

Feno, I can't nadespawn too.

as your first map you did a nice work, just work more in the middle of the map, it looks looks too empty..and maybe try to hide more the flags Wink

The middle was even emptier, but I put a wall or two just to block some nasty spamlines (or make them less effective). Do you think it would be a good idea to connect the two center walls? (looking like Z tetris blocks) I think it's gonna make it easier to hold the line and run with a flag.
Hide flags? For example move them to where team spawns are at the moment?

I won't probably make any changes since it was suddenly uploaded somewhere, but maybe I will make some more maps in the future so it's always good to hear some suggestions.

The bases are ok, just hide more the flag, use that single wall in the base and put it in front of the flags, instead behind them (this is my opinion).
ye can be an idea to connect walls in the middle, but also pay attentions to the spamlines, and feel you free to put something that represent you in the map, like a sign, to be more original! always remember that people of babo has difficult tastes about new maps, you have to work a lot on them!!

Hello world. I know "babo is dead" and CTF-Plaza is still fine, but...
Yeah, I made a few maps again. The bad thing is:
I couldn't really make use of grifis' suggestions while making maps listed below. Although I do my best to avoid spamlines and big, open spaces, the truth is that most popular maps tend to have them.

Hopefully you will find these worth trying. I am not sure if they are 3v3, 4v4 or 5v5 (if they are even playable), but I will mark them properly to my purposes of what they are meant to be. I'm sorry if their names are already used by some maps, but supposedly there is no Ultimate List of Babo Maps where it is possible to check this.
