City Island map idea

[Harmor]

You know in Strike at Karkand at the MEC's main base on the 32 player map it has a double bridge next to it. When the USMC has all the bases and the MEC is stuck on that island I think some of the most fun times are there!!!

So what if EVERY flag was like that...a small island connected with these double bridges???

EDIT: Concept map:


Let the fun insue!

Re: City Island map idea

I see what you mean. That could work, as long as the islands were ONLY accessible via those bridges(meaning you couldn't sneak around the back side to retake the other flags) It would cause unavoidable choke points in the map where there would be massive battles. A true head-on map. (in theory anyways)

Re: City Island map idea

Well of course people would or could swim from island to island without using the bridges, but they would be very exposed.

I wouldn't want to put an APC on either side. Probably just 2 heavy jeeps and 1 tank for each side.

It would be a 32 player map...couldn't see it being a 64 player map.

Re: City Island map idea

You should always make your map with 64 players in mind as you can make different versions using layers (and also, people will end up playing 64 players on a 32 player map). I spose 1 bridge way would be too much for 64 players, why not just do this:
Instead of bridges laid out like this: ----
Do the bridges like this: ====
Still realistic as it allows vehicles both ways like in real life.

Add more islands for the 64 :)

Here's a concept map:



In the 16 and 32 player versions the top and bottom flags are MEC/USMC flags.

I tried making it but my editor keeps crashing on me. I'm not very good at mapmaking it seems.

Perhaps after I finish more of these tutorials I'll figure out what I'm doing wrong...I think its my lightmap or a heightmap issue...but not sure.


By all means go for it. I'm not trying to take the credit I just want a map that is fun to play.

Re: City Island map idea

Looks fairly easy to do, those island areas should be abit bigger though, especially the middle one otherwise you could cap both at the same time if you stood in the middle

LOL, yeah!!! The drawing is "not to scale" so don't take it literally. I'm not even sure there SHOULD be two flags in the middle island to be honest. Just thought it might be fun to have two flags about 50m away from each other.
