Ok, the the last map in my mappack is finished :D. This is probably my best map yet, really like it. Couldn't test it thoroughly but it should be bug-free. Fun to play on, and balanced IMO.

* Not waypointed. later...
* Biggish map, good for 3v3-6v6

Marry me, Boxo.

wow that is really ugly, im dissapointed :)

holy [CENSORED]! this map is just...HOLY [CENSORED]!
omg, i've never seen shading practiced as good as here before!
HALLELULIA!!!

I like how you stretch the texture boxo

great map :D

D@MN IT!! I hate you! I can't believe you're so dishonest as to take over my Thanksgiving down time! >:-|

Naw, jes' kidding xD The map reminds me a lot of ctf_Kryptonia and ctf_Neonia. I don't like how the base color polygons stretch downward so much (wow, my first critique of a map by Boxo other than ctf_Dropdown), and if that pole in the middle blocks bullets I wouldn't like that either (whoa, second), but otherwise it pwnz.

That looks kinda tough to wypt. You sure you want to tackle that, semagae? ;-D

The pole in the middle does Keron.

But I like what it adds to the gameplay. You can see it in a few other of his 'gas' maps.

@Keron
yes :P

A very nice finish to the series.
As usual the colours, shading, and texture work is great.

Sorry. So sorry, semagae. I just had to. I couldn't control my hand.

Looks like dibs no longer revolve around who claim a map first, but who can live up to his claim :-D But for my punishment, I will... *gasp* release my first public map (or at least screenies of it ;-P), as you so PMedly pined for.

your quick with those waypoints...

EDIT: did you test it?

EDIT:EDIT: did you even waypoint it?

Did you even download it? :-P The bots are hard if you're fighting 7 vs. 4 Hard-level bots, joining the 4, either way. What, are there no wypts. on that one?

Very , but VERY nice map. I love this one.
Nice shading , nice layout and it looks very playable ...must have it!

@Keron, hell no :P
it was just so fast :P

possibly the worst map I've ever seen 2/10, look at the edges, they're way too pointy, yes I've made better

Oh, sure ;-) I could wypt. a map in a few hours; this took a day only because I couldn't get on a computer until late at night. I'll post screenies of my map in the discussions forum later.

Meh, ok map, overstretched scenery and I absolutely hate it when people colour the base polys, but other than that it looks just fine.

PS. And the shading is mediocre at best, if you want your shading to look good you pick a point of light and shade everything accordingly.

wtf? Mediocre at best? One thing this map has for sure is amazing shading...

I'm quite sure Boxo knows a thing or two about shading a map, much more than that most basic of ideas. Gotta say the shading is much better than "mediocre at best", and while some of the polys look a bit overstreached they still play well off of each other. Looks great in overview and in game, and I love the spawn placements and vivid colors.

wow, many people hate this map, while i think its your best?!?! :P

i was clearly kidding

oops :P
i thought your :) was a :(

Oh I just noticed that neat little trick you did with the flag "bowls".
Very nice, I thought it was just an untextured "only player collides" poly, but then I remembered that flags go behind polys :p

I dunno, I guess karmazon saw a few posts containing critiscism and assumed a lot of people hated it.
