WOW, this map owns already, really good job, I have one question tho, Cant when the team get the flag, just jump along side the ramp that goes up to base (Ill put a put up to show you)

*Adds to favourites*

I wouldn't think you would be able too, if it was possible I think Yoyorast will make some tweaks to fix that.

Thats why I said it, incase he didnt think that, maybe hes gonna put a barrier or something.

i believe that issue has already come up. isn't this just showing the architectural aspect that will be hidden by the island geometry? i would think so. look back at previous renders, he has thought about defeating the "easy routes".

Well, he just came up with this idea, I was just saying to make sure he knows, if you could and he doesnt change it before he releases map, then it would be bad, people would just go that way.

unless he could put something there to block ppl or to trick them it's a shortcut

Well, if the flag is inside the base, how would they get on top in the first place?

Or maybe I'm looking at this the wrong way.

HOLY SH--

I bet that is the size of 10 Infinitys...or 5 New M

Looks really nice, it's nice seeing time spent on things for a change.

Hey guys! thanks for your comments and observations, I've been improving a lot of things with those since I've first post here and on gearbox forums...

Here are just 2 little renders to make things a bit clearer... but you almost find the ansewrs by yourseves anyway:

oh this last image is to show you the transparency of the 2 "cages" that prevent you to go on or inside the central ramp from the roof the towers

YO... hehe

nice work, is there ganna be an easter egg vehicle?

A map like that WILL have to have an easter egg vehicle, like a secret teleporter going into another environment box above the island, having 4 flying vehicles, (not a shee, but maybe like the ones in my map, or maybe a tie fighter, heh, or a UT 2k4 skjaar or human space fighter)

Just an idea or 2 from your friendly SVC

maybe you could be something that would prevent them from being able to jump that part you said was a little problem. Like maybe add something in the middle.

Well actually I did that in the first place but it was not very esthetic to have like a big wall on the middle of the top of the "middle ramp" so I added the 2 glass cages but just noticed lastly that they prevented you to pass in one sens but not in the other.... After thinking about it I'm telling myself it'd finally be a good thing to be able to jump on the middle ramp and shoot from there if you wanted... but of course, forbiding the passage to the towers' roof from there just by making the glass cages higher or.. well, impossible to pass. Finally it's not a big deal I think.

YO

Hey men! Nothing really new here but this is just a little little update to show you a second (strategic) place (the beach base) for a second fixed canon I wanted to put in the map...

YO
