Make both bombsites more detailed, not asthetics wise, but try to brighten up the bombsites, make them more than just generic platforms with generic crates. For example, you could make bombsite A a temple, and make bombsite b larger, and maybe add a pit too it. Just overall make the map more strategic and not rooms and passages( Ive had the same problem )

Try to move yourself around In overview mode, it should appear eventually

Sounds like an interesting concept. You can get playtests here:

Edit: I sound so unenthusiastic.

Remember to update the screenshots when done .

The map looks REALLY good. I can see the inspiration from Inferno as well. You should get this to playtest ASAP.

4 days? U folken wot m8?

Anyways, the map feels a little lacking of some... "pop"/"wow". You should try to add something defining the the map, like a giant tower or something in the middle.

Wow. Not long at all, you've been at this for what, 2 weeks?

I feel like the brushwork is a little messy, try your best to align brushes to the grid with as large a grid scale as possible.

"But not like cobblestone". Cobble isn't a bad map. It isn't good either .

Muffin make sure you use Andre's method of packing the BSP I posted a couple of pages back. Packrat can be annoying as hell and as long as you're not using custom stuff the workshop method is really simple.

I use TopHATTWaffles method with VIDE Pakfile Lump Editor.

You can, but it's much better to be there. We tend to be a lot more critical when the author's not there, so be ready for that. Make sure you at least have the basics down (radar, clipping, decent lighting, etc).

Critical? As in stricter and more mean? Totally k

I asked this before but I don't think anyone replied. Just qoute me in the answer. DO you have to be there for the playtesting? or can people just play your map and send feedback to the map thread.

Looks really sexay. Seriously dude... ammooozzing. Keep up the good work!

Yeah there isnt a whole lot of cover in the map. If I were you, I'd start adding natural cover/cool brushwork now just to make the map look nice and function better. It also sets a standard for the map.

What are your plans about this host ? 5-10 players should be fine, but the more players discover the map, the more it will RAM consuming, so if i were you i'll buy a host for 10€/ month and enjoy the game without worrying abou the server side.

well I'm broke... Anyways, the server www going to be a modest public server aiming for a good small community of players.

I know there are tons of threads out there like this but I was hoping you fellow mapcorians had some thoughts and answers on this.

So, I have a 20mb download and 2mb upload speed. I am allocating 2GB of RAMS to the server, and have a i7 4700H @ 2.4 GHz and a 5400 RPM HDD. I was wondering, how many players can I safely host before my internet speed collapses? (Minecraft server)

What's the total size now?

We need BOILERS!!! Imagine the best map ever without boilers. 0/8 wouldn't bang.

That means 8/8 WOULD bang.
