tbd_metropolis

[Mandrad]

For now, its just a sketch.
This time, i decided for a simpler layout. I think it will be open enough for some fun (although i dont know its size right now).
Ain't decided where, to put the powerups.
Teams will probably be yellow and green and background grayish blue.
Ain't got a name for it...

Hope you like it.

I'm a sucker for neutral tones, but actually really like the graphics like that, almost looks dystopian. We'll have to see how it plays, looks like whales may have the run of the map, but then I never was great at judging class balance.

Tbh this map needs more free space. There is no middle area to control, 5 rooms with tight corridors. But maybe this is what we need.

Imo tighten the base area a bit, maybe lower base and open up the center a little bit.
Less base camping Please!!

[TwistedDuck]

its a nice map i like base inside ufo's i think the middle portion is too cramped (too tight) op for whales

anyway looks good

keep them maps commin!

[Mt.Vesuvius]

tbd_probing_park imo

[wolf'j'max]

more free space indeed, and for some reason the shapes remind of well.. everything reminds me of the game 'portal' so, tbd_portalpark anyone?

[Demuyt]

Really like the map. The shapes are hexagons, therefore I name this tbd_hexpark

By the way I miss ffa_hex so much, when is someone going to host that

[sunshineduck]

pure white as a background would probably be too bright.

Tx everybody for the feedback.
I made slight transformations since the 1st sketch.

Im naming it Metropolis (no park). If a Mod could please change this thread name tx guys

Please test. I have some ideas concerning improvement but i want to hear it from you guys.

[Mandrad]

Here it is, sexy

PS. tx mods for name correction

[Nikon]

The graphical sketch looks awesome! You always have awesome looking maps, I'm jealous.

[A Nipple]

looks good graphically, love the ufo base's. The middle need reworking. Can't offer any ideas atm but if any come to mind will post em. p.s the background shud be skyscrapers like tronesque!!! =]

[Mandrad]

Let there be light! Or darkness...
Feedback feeds the makers.

[elxir]

you've outdone yourself...the map looks awesome

i can't offer much in the way of gameplay because 2v2 with 3 bots is not very telling...

p.s. the download is currently 4.0 mb :O

[elxir]

played a match in ladder

people's comments were essentially: 1) why is the base so high? and 2) download is WAY too big (about double the size of the next largest map)
