Default My Beta Map. (Classic Space Battle Trench Run).

This is a VERY basic Map..
This is ONLY for testing the Concept..
I don't have any colors or fancy images to make it pretty (yet).

This map is going to be updated and greatly enhanced.

First, let me say that 10000 pixels wide is HUGE. Most TBD maps are 4000 or so wide. There was once a map called tbd_battlecruisers that was 10000 pixels wide. It seemed so wide that it became pretty annoying to die because you had probably flown for a minute straight before seeing an enemy.

However, as far as the concept goes, it seems like a decent idea. I like the choices that a player has to make between choosing the path to bomb the other team's base or to defend their own path to their own base. However, I think that with the current map width it will degenerate into "who can kill the other team first" so that they get free runs at their base. This is because once you kill a player at the center you have basically taken him out of the equation for a minute or so. There is no way to protect your base once you have died.

Anyway, I recommend reworking the idea and possibly making the map much shorter. It's never any fun for me to play on maps that wide.

It's the end of the world as we know it, folks.
