CTF AntFarm
by Mirth Prolan

Probably the least sane idea I've had in a while:

Let's create a claustrophobic map that will be FILLED TO THE BRIM with firefights and explosions!

I think I've made it work though.

I present to you:

CAPTURE THE FLAG: ANTFARM

It's ideas like these that make or break my maps.

I've got another map in the works, so this should tide ye over.

PostScript:

I've played at least 30 minutes of pure CTF AntFarm, and I must say that it's VERY fun if you keep the respawn time at 0. You tend to die a lot (but not TOO much, just enough ;) ) and you might enjoy using the Barret in this map (Did somebody say embarassing close-range sniping? Haha).

So there you are.

My 'second' map.

PostPostScript:

I've figured out shading.

PostPostPostScript:

It's hard to get it nice looking. =(

Hmmm...which team is on top and which is on bottom? Because it seems as though one of the teams will have a hell of an advantage being on the top of that map..

From what I've played (Blue is on top, Red is on bottom), the major chokepoint is the entrance to the Blue base. The secondary is the pathway leading from the Red base is also a chokepoint (but less major, nonetheless).

You'll see a LOT of people dying, but as long as you don't get easily frustrated, you can definitely have a lot of fun on this map.
