Herforst CTF

[Dokujisan]

oh, and about esteel's comments on defending. He's one of best defenders I've played against on Herforst. I learned a few defending tricks from playing against him (mainly for creative use of rockets oh facing worlds)

An in regard to C.Brutail's comments about grapple..
"say try to play that map on a normal CTF server too, and decide, what's more fun."

I've played both and I prefer the grapple on that map. I've played some other maps where I would prefer not having a grapple, but with facing worlds, I think the grapple improves the map.

I wish it were designed without the anti-grapple mindset (i.e. get rid of those stupid kill zones) If you don't like to play with the grapple...then don't. But you shouldn't go out of your way to prevent other people from playing with the grapple.

The killzones make the map much more playable, becouse you might not know, but:
1: The defender Anubis killzone corrigates an exploit from old ut times, that with a well made rocketjump (in ut it was made by 5 rockets) you can propel yourself from one towertop to another. Capture in 2 seconds. NOT FUN.
2.: the "monkey killer" zone was added after some beta, becouse people started to mourn, that it's too easy and they can't defend the base.
And btw, please, I am the mapper, and I decide, what to do with my map. The sources are included, with 5 minutes of work you can modify the map for your liking, pack it up, and get the server admins to play that map.

Owned. ^^

Is that why you changed the origional Facing Worlds map? I really enjoyed that one, especially how the "holes" were much larger, and people would crazily swing from one base to the other. I like the finish of the current version, but I think that (what I presume to be) the origional had some real soul.

[C.Brutail]

LOL
That map gave me so much headache when I was mapping it, I realy think it NEVER had any soul (if it had, it was very evil ). Just a friendly reminder from the map-readme file:

"The bsp part took 11 seconds, vis took 2522 seconds (42 minutes), light phase took 323224 seconds (yes, that's more then 89 hours, a total of almost 4 days) on my config:"

The current version is of course much more true to the UT facing,where you dont have a hook (you do have a translocator though

Replace the killzone by a teleporter to a dimension of excruciating pain... which, amazingly, looks like an ordinary room.

Did someone seriously say "owned"?
What are we, 12?

Look, I know you're the map maker. Congrats on making the map. If I were a map maker, I assure you that I would've already made the changes. I was planning on learning map-making, but school work sort of got in the way.

It would be cool if when you hit the killzones, you would be transported to an underground death arena, and if more than one person hit the zones they would have to battle to the death — the winner would be released...

Or just teleported into a one-player-sized box that can be gotten out of with much difficulty and watch the telefrags roll in
