Earlier on, when i made Pitfall, it went on DNAgames. Unfortunately, ping levels skyrocketed and people became unhappy. I present to you a remixed and awesome-ified tropic-cavey version of Pitfall!

I've prevented n00bage frustration by allowing more jet, making most of the stalagmites hurting, and including stalactites, some of which stop bullets. I hope this will prevent lag because they will help stop bullets from traversing half the map :p

I've also included a closed in cave roof to prevent sky high battles, which are cause for lotsa lag. The stalactites on the roof also provide cover for you when you're escaping with the flag.

I expect to hear no complaints about jet problems. I can travel half the map without running out of jet, so that should be plenty. If you have a hard time reaching the other team's base on this map, consider sicking to the top so you have emergency islands to land on. The huge variety of escape routes should provide you with millions of possiblities on this map. I've also included an easter egg hiding spot for the flagger. (can you find it?)

Feel free to host this on your server, people. I think this should be extremely hardcore online, since the bots are retarded. If somebody here can expertly waypoint this map, all the better. :p

Cheers!

screenshot... who needs it anyways? Just download the map.

I hope that spot below and away from the map isn't your eater egg hiding spot, because it would really suck for blue with their ice patch while red's is just normal.

Other than that, It's a really nice map. I like the scenery and noob friendliness of it.

You really should decrease the amount of players allowed in to about 14. It gets very laggy with 20 players.

It's cause of the low framerates per second you probably got the 'lagging feeling', Rambo_6...

Edit: I changed the server to a 14-playerslots-server.

Hey, I'm not much of a reader, lol. I just look at maps, play the maps, and write in pink. Maybe I need Hooked On Phonics :/

Its been a long time since I downloaded a custom map, but this one is great. Always loved it on the DNAGames server, but my pc lagged up :(

Well done Rambo.

*slaps Rambo_6 for bumping an old topic*

Edit: Sorry for the wrong URL, I fixed it. Thanks Michal anyway, it looks like the same version hopefully.

It's better to revive an old topic than to start a new one, GluLm.

I didn't want to revive it, i just sorta screwed the map up.

Thanks for uploading it.

EDIT: the file you uploaded is empty, Glulm. I'm not sure it is even a soldat map, since there's no .PMS on it.

*sigh* The link for the download is out. You should find something other than llsc.

I'll re-upload, LLsc is working now, i think.

I'll also upload it to m00.u13.net.

I'm not sure what maps to release for the compo...

This is one of my favourite CTF maps of yours, I'd like to see it as a default map.

Rambo_6

Thanks. I'm putting it into my mappak for the competition :D

Likewise, i'd like to see your map, Industry, as a default. Gotta love it!
