You Decide Mapcore's Future

would love a new 1024 comp, but voted unreal because people need to move on from the rinky dink toolset that comes with the source engine

edit: but I'm guessing the results from this won't be interpreted binary

Voted Unreal as I plan to expand my repertoire.

Would've loved voting Overwatch though. Toolset pretty please?

While CS:GO may be the predictible and boring avenue I am pretty sure it has the widest coverage across the sites memebers. All of the possibilities look fun though!

On a side note, the title and wording of the poll is a bit strange. Voting on "Mapcore's future" sounds like it is deciding the sites sole focus which is, unless I am reading it wrong, incorrect. May want to at least edit the title.

I'd love to see what the community does in the Unreal Engine.

Voted CS:GO, then I thought that a BMS contest could have been extremely interesting, would love to see a new modding community rising again. Bring back my vote

Also yeah an Overwa... nevermind.

I would like the 1024x1024 but people have to use UT to get the mapcore community out of their comfort zone

I voted UT but the 1024 contest actually sounds more interesting. Especially if 2d maps were on the table!

also... overwatch pretty pretty please

I would prefer 1024x1024xinfinite

I agree, it's a bit confusing what are we voting on. Voted for CS:GO since I'm currenty working on a map for it, but would be nice to see something else alongside CS.

1024^2 contest sounds like fun.

Comoon folks UT!

I'd like to nominate UT4 because I feel like UE4 will be much more inviting to newcomers. I'd also like to hold off on CSGO until any future Source 2 integrations occur. After that? Sure! Let's try all of the new stuff! So much new stuff! Hey, where is all of the new stuff?!

Source2 is not coming into CSGO or TF2 anytime soon. All this fuzz about it was because Gabe said in an interview that all their games will be using the same engine eventually. There is nothing concrete happening and it's much more beneficial to them to put their resources into use on other avenues of development. You can wait source2 but meanwhile create something great.

Haven't voted yet.

Is there any other UE4 game we can mod/map for instead of UT? Just because if we are talking about doing something different…

Also 1024x1024 is necessarily a cube or can we think of having that total volume at disposal, but can for example create a very long corridor?

We should have a suggestions thread maybe in the future. So I can suggest a Doom2 mapping contest

I agree. It's why I feel UT4/UE4 is a better investment of time, especially for newcomers trying their hand at level design.

Spoiler I mean, I say all of this, but I will probably do more work in Hammer than UE4 this year.

I haven't voted (yet). I am only known with playing UT04 and CS:GO and I am still learning Hammer. So making a map for CS:GO would be most interresting to me. But if it will be a CS:GO contest I hope it could be something specific and something different. A cs_ map could do as there are not many maps for it. Or a total deviant layout for a competetive defusal or hostage map but I guess its hard to judge what is 'deviant'. It would also be cool to think of a new competetive gamemode to make a map for. Or perhaps that's a waiste of time and effort?

The 1024x1024 gamemode sounds interresting. But I guess for judgement and for the participaters its better to pick one game and gamemode? I would like to hear more about this idea
