New Map: Quake3 - Beyond Reality II - CTF

[III-Busta]

Hello all,

I wanted to get your opinion on this release..I'm calling it a final. Any comments will be appreciated.

Description:
A vanilla Quake3 version of the popular
Team Arena map (mpteam9). pro-q3t6ctf derives from mpteam9
which derived from q3tourney6_ctf. It's a bit larger, with 2
floors on each base, a couple new ways off the base and the
quad alternate on the middle platform.

I have the map in rotation at the following servers:
64.255.174.10:27960 :: -=Lightning=-
64.255.174.100:27960 :: -=Thunder=-

I hope to see some of you there [/url]

doesn't look half bad. will check out

i haven't downloaded a custom Q3 map for years

edit:

* there's no arena file
* only seems to be one spawn point, resulting in a massive telefrag clusterfuck
* GL is pretty redundant on a map like this. suggest replacing with LG or even better SG
* the stairways slow the flow down. i'd suggest more bouncepads
* there's a thumbs.db file in the pk3

otherwise, looks like pretty solid old skool action

noice dude (rock on symbol) im not the kind of guy to be able to point out the errors like what the post above says but it looks perty good.

I've tested it with a 10v10 and there's no telefragging that I am aware of.

bounce pads imo are horrid on space maps...makes an easy target for railers...keeping them at a minimum worked best.

I'll address the other issues. Thanks for the comments and suggestions.

So you're remaking t6-ctf--one of the worst offenders of easy-target-jumppad gameplay--and yet you're making that statement.

Oh, the irony!

What wviperw said, and:

Oh, look. A remake of a space floater. Or, maybe Law and Order is on..

What's wrong with mpteam9?

[Todtsteltzer]

I think they just don't like space floaters...

[v1l3]

or...hmm, I'll put it this way instead...usually people do remakes of a map because they think they can do a better job of making it(hence re-make)....now, if it was an intent to port a TA map over to Vanilla...then it probably would have been a better choice to do something like mpterra1 or something. Now that could be considered a great map to re-make...aside from nobody really jumping at playing a re-make of a space map....

I normally don't rant and rave...but, I don't understand people and remakes....like we need another q2dm1 or a q1dm4 remake 11 or 12 yee-hah. I guess make a remake or maybe a boxmap that would be cool.

If you don't mind, why don't you join the CTF-1on1 mappack project with your cool map? :icon25:

Um.
He probably won't, because this isn't a 1-on-1 CTF map.

You confuse me.

[squirell man]

too big. q3tourney6ctf would be the largest map I would ever play a space 1v1 ctf game on.
