So, I decided to try my hand at making a map using the random knowledge I've picked up
here about designing maps well. I think it's pretty good for a first effort, but any
advice you guys might have is welcome.

I tend to be pretty picky as far as maps go but I like this one. Its a good map but I think you did
one thing takes a lot away from it. You have a border of plains going around the edge of the
map which makes it look a lot more open and bland than it really is. If you recreate this map
one size smaller for height and width, I think it will make a drastic improvement.

Apart from the border issue, I can't see much wrong with this map. In fact I really like the
design and the base placement, I think it will make for an interesting battle.

what xmo5 told you
this map seems good...good...good..
Xmo5 (01/15/2009 02:01pm):
Yeah, much better without that border around it

I kinda liked the way you used to have the roads and bases better, but thats up to you
Either way its a good map
9/10
PCJedi (01/15/2009 03:06pm):
Truthfully, I liked it better that way too, with the roads and bases, but people in the
design forum told me that I should get rid of some of them because it was too prone to
having recon rushes.
airob (01/15/2009 07:28pm):
it was better the old way...you should put the roads and bases back
PCJedi (01/15/2009 09:53pm):
There, now the roads are linked up better again, and the bases are back where they
originally were, but it would be harder for either team to try to rush to the farther base
with a recon to prevent the opponent from capturing it, so it should be a pretty good
compromise I hope.
airob (01/22/2009 04:40pm):
i ddonīt think anyone would do that...it would leave its own close factorie unprotected
Cereal Killer (01/25/2009 10:11pm):
It's definitiley good for a fist map. But it does lack any real uniqueness to it.
PCJedi (01/26/2009 05:47pm):
It wasn't really intended to be unique at all, in fact. I just wanted to make a simple
two player map so I could get my basic mapmaking skills down a bit better.
airob (02/01/2009 08:08pm):
itīs good
