Good 1v1 maps?
Fri Oct 31, 2008 2:15 am

  • What are considered to be the good duel maps in this game? I downloaded this game recently and have fallen in love with it, and even though I've been enjoying the FFA's I've been playing, I want to play something more strategic and skillful. I've always been interested in 1v1 shooters, and since CPMA won't work for me on Quake this seems like it'd be close enough.

  • My favorites, in order of liking, more or less:
    final_rage, aggressor, warfare, soylent, toxic, stormkeep, runningman_1on1remix

    You can usually find anyone agreeable to a match on the above maps.

    Other okay 1v1 maps:
    reslimed, aneurysm, bloodprison, runningman, downer, darkzone

    Every map I have mentioned is an official (included) map. I don't really know of any great 3rd party 1v1 maps.


    If you have IRC, drop by #prae.nexuiz on Quakenet, and liolak, ohsnapple, or myself would be happy to show you some 1v1 tricks.

  • Check out some of the quake 3 maps Strahlemann has posted here.

    kojn and mkzelda are probably the 2 most informed players I can think of on this topic. They can probably give you the best list :).

    Pretty much what pavlvs said, his first list of maps is pretty much what i would of said and in my eyes should be the general map-pool! (I also dont mind aneurysm) but perhaps replaced toxic with reslimed (due to a slower pace of game and more tactical if you know how to play it right, it is a good map, toxic is ok too though!)


    I'd say these are the most played one's though by the majority of people:-

    aggressor
    final_rage
    soylent
    stormkeep
    warfare

    hope this helps.

  • I designed Crossover-CTF so that it ,might work as a 1-on-1 CTF map. It kind of does.

    make sure you let me know when it's done / comment me if you want it testing and feedback.

    That's why it is so good. The game style differs so much from the other maps. You have to play differently or you'll be pushed off. A good player adapts to the maps a bad player throws away maps which doesn't provide his game style. :P

  • it doesn't matter if your a good player or not, you'll get thrown off due to push/smacking into a wall from an opponent's shot.

    in the future ill just camp the top and we'll see how fun people think it is. :roll:

  • well it looks like i m reviving a long dead thread, has any of you regular 2vs2 or 1vs1 guys playtested penthouse ? i have only playtested it many times with don on 1/1 and it is freaking funny! i know the top area is 2 open, but the rooms downstairs, as well as the small balkonies make for suprisingly deep gameplay. Probably its probably just me, (well...and mirio maybe :) ) that is just 2 keen for this map, but i havent seen it in european based dm servers lately...(sniff : ( ). Penthouse, and that other map ,the one with the underground altar and the multilevel city ruins were also so bloody good for kh. which again, is not so popular nowdays

  • Final_rage, Reslimed, Warfare, stormkeep and runningman_1on1remix. I like also other maps like aggressor, soylent and toxic, but only because of the action on this maps, not because I like the way how to play them ...
