[WIP] de_facility

[Devils Right Hand]

hi i consider to try this contest im new to csgo mapping but i have experience in level design ,map layout is on a hide facility from the spy eyes the name i must consider later,need models to add and im done for a test

[JackT]

Seems way too big.

[Radu]

I really like the '93 aesthetic! Would recommend to change the name to e1m1

update i change the walls lower on the hole map,the models are done,if im finish with the map i post if a couple like to test my map

It doesn't have any shadows at all and it looks very repetitive and goldsourcy. Get yourself a reference

the pics above are bsp compiled only ,this means no light,if it looks repetitive it is your view- this is a facility and not a city,i maked a couple other theme maps and this time i make a hide facility,at zanek your- Get yourself a reference,i take it as a compliment,if you can map a better map go ahead and show your map

I think he meant that the map looks the same pretty much everywhere, so players might not be able to point out different areas from each other. Also, the map looks very open, lacks cover and doesn't have any height variation at all (judging by those screenshots). You should try to understand feedback.

update im finish with map,the pics dont show the hole map,mapname is de_polemarchos_facility,the first one who test the map is radu after you vote my map then i rename my map as lowlife e1m1,when i dont get a vote i quit mapping and i map again lowlife quake3 maps,need to compile again after i spot missing texture to add and then i add it to workshop,one question are the comp mapper allowed to add there own icon on the loading screen on the right up corner,or only valve accepted maps got this loading screen icon, = story =
member of polemarchos facility go for supply in town,the donut eater have long time observe those members,and they drive to there hide facility inside a mountain,now the polemarchos members try to explode there equipment not to fall in there hands

...?

EDIT: In any event, there are many things that currently can be improved such as visibility (many dark textures) and the layout of the map is almost completely symmetrical. It seems that indeed you have made this map with a gamemode like Unreal Tournament in mind, which I think doesn't fall under the competitive/hostage category for the contest. From the radar it seems like terrorists are closer to the bombsites than CT's, which you most likely don't want to have happening as this is a huge advantage for terrorists and forces CT's to immediatly retake. Most of the layout is large open space with little cover to defend behind.

I'd either suggest turning it into a hostage mode, which would more likely fit the map, or re-think a whole bunch of the layout so it works in terms of timings and playability.

Good luck

ok here the story of the map layout it plays on a hide facility inside a mountain see the pics,and i consider this map hide facility layout falls category for the contest,it is not like other maps industrial plant there a couple maps of them and those industrial plants doesn't fall under category for the contest,the main part of the layout was to makes little as get bottlenecks corners to avoid alot small -vis portals ,so lets say some examples we have room a next to room b this is good for -vis portals it makes a straight line,and all ventshafts are brushes/95% of light too and not vent/light.models,i like to map big maps this not mean big walls as you see in this map example,the map dimension are length-14000 width-7600 + brushes 5366,and now the map it looks like you say symmetrical,yes from the -vis perfomance view it is good to have those symmetrical brushes,but on the ingame view it looks like maybe for other the hole map different

Q - It seems that indeed you have made this map with a gamemode like Unreal Tournament in mind

A - nop the map was not from a gamemode like Unreal Tournament

Q - From the radar it seems like terrorists are closer to the bombsites than CT's

A - i change now the ct spawns are on the same hight as terror

Q - Most of the layout is large open space with little cover to defend behind. 

A - i add crates/barrels/etc on the map

The map is still way too big and corridory. Your layout has issues, changing the gamemode won't solve your issues...
