Looks great to me.

*get*

Edit: Or I would get, if the download worked... FireFox appears to think the file name is The, and it's some manner of application or something.

lol you will never see any map shading from me cuz its a [IMAGE] and its about gameplay not graphics right?.... im just saying that since i suck at shading ;) no i was thinking of adding some more scenery and not all of it is infront of the player. i dont know what the hell transparency has to do with a tree or grass or what not cuz trees arent made to be looked thru if thats the case. The center of the eye will have more scenery added.

The looks of the maps is as important as the gameplay. You wouln't be with a girl who has a great personality, but isnt really good looking, or would you? Same goes with the maps. You at least could've tried.

If you don't try you'll never learn. Heaven forbid you put forth effort.

Maps looks solid, good gameplay. Just shade those polys...

IMO the map design is not the best one. You have divided the map into two parts where the main action will be. That splits the game up into two connected 'mini-games'. I don't really like the way you created the basic layout. The shading and scenery placement looks nice though.

the top and bottom are pretty much suppose to be divided. it may take a little away from meeting enemies on the otherside but yet at least i didnt put liana all over the damn thing like my last map lol. i dont know if i would delete the land that comes out in the middle (or so called divider) since it will put team 1&2 and 3&4 against each other, this would kick ass in survival mode i think. i look at it as being pretty even in gameplay; few sniper spots, good amount of open space for flying combat, closed in areas for minigun, MP, and shotgun, a few spots for camping and stealth kills (not long tho)
