CTF-EL_CONQUISTADOR_Beta01

[{RA}SKYFURNACE]

Beta 01 Release of my map CTF-EL_Conquestador

Map is intended for 8-10 players, anything over 14 and it will be crazy.

I know there is some lighting work (some meshes and bsp) still to do, and some texture work to line up, and i need a preview pic.

Its bot supported, and they do pretty good on skilled and above, i know there are spots they get confused in.

I need feedback on the following

1) How does it run FPS wise?

2) Map too Dark?

3) Wep Placement:

4) Armor Placement (Should i swap Thigh pads & Vest or swap the vest for something else?)

5) health placement:

6) Ammo Placement especially:

7) Still not sure about the Jumppad next to the Flag.... that can easily go away, the bots like it tho. :)
A) If keep the pad maybe direct to upper door?
B) If keep the pad maybe direct back over flag to upper catwalk?



Additional Comments:

The jump boots are for getting in and out of the base with the flag quickly, if you think x2 are too many speak up.

There is no helmet, super health, or shelid belt, i can add those if you think it needs them.

There is only the amp for a power up in the center.

There is a vest on both sides, you just have too look for it. :)

Wow I was lost and confused for a while there! But I like the complexity. I think it will make for some interesting game play. I like your take on base/map positioning - side by side in a way.

1) How does it run FPS wise?
FPS wise I was fine, 60-90

2) Map too Dark?
Not at all, it was fine for me

3) Wep Placement:
Considering how lost I was its hard to say.

4) Armor Placement (Should i swap Thigh pads & Vest or swap the vest for something else?)
I remember going up an elevator and seeing the Chest armor and being unable to get it without the xloc. Is that by design or me missing the right area?

5) health placement:
Cool, maybe a little much?? BUt then again I was playing bots.

6) Ammo Placement especially:
Fine

7) Still not sure about the Jumppad next to the Flag.... that can easily go away, the bots like it tho.
A) If keep the pad maybe direct to upper door?
B) If keep the pad maybe direct back over flag to upper catwalk?
Tough one, at first I didnt like the fact that I couldnt get to the upper catwalk but then I figured it would be way too easy to escape. BUT then again with good team play it could easily be covered and planned for. I say keep it but wait to see others opinion on direction/power.


GJ overall!! :rockon:

Looks damn cool mate, hopefully i'll have UT3 by the time it's finito.
And LOL @ El_Conquisitor......you been watching a few old school cowboy movies or eating a lot of Mexican lately? :evil:

It's much too dark, Sky. I play at standard brightness or maybe a notch brighter and many of the corridors are almost black. I found myself turning to coves in the wall and dead-ends because I couldn't make out detail.

Weps seem OK, ammo too.

The opening over the flag, with the pads, tough to hit that with the boots, maybe that was the intent?

Looks very nice, I'll have to remember to download this when I get home.
