Another map idea from yours truly! :D

I'd always adored the idea of a 'land, sea, air' map for Soldat... where the soldats parachute down onto the map, all while attacking each other in the air.

But then came the problem of adding in the sea... and that's when I realized, "Why not have an island assault map?"

I took it a step further, thinking "Wouldn't it be great if the Soldats could fight underwater too?"

So picture this; reverse CTF. On the side the reds parachute down on, the blue flag lies within the depths of the ocean, where a sunken ship lies. On the side with the blues, the opposite end of the ship holds the red flag.

In the middle of the map is the beach, centered right over said ship.

Now we're talkin' :D

i don't know why, but when I finished designing this thing I absolutely LOVED the idea, and really REALLY think it'd make an excellent CTF map.

The map is called "CTF_BuriedTreasure", and I'd love it if one of you skilled mappers could design it for me :)

Also, what does everyone think of it, anyway? I'd love to hear comments :)

Hmm...
A good idea, and even better preview. The mapper voulenteering for this one,
isn't going to have any difficoulties making it thanks to NS.

Too bad i'm busy cause it looks interesting.

thats hawt!
if no other mapper takes it, i will :P

you've got something valuable there! although i'd make the island a bit wider.
don't think i've got what it takes, otherwise i'd go for it ;D nice one

Thanks for the comments guys :)

So...any takers, though?

I'll take it!

Perhaps have the red flag on an island on the left side, and have a much smaller sunken ship in the bottom right, reds parachute onto island, or just spawn there, while blue either parachutes into water above their base, or just spawns into it?

However, this is a VERY good idea, and should be made, post haste :).

The only problem I could see with that idea is that Reds would have the height advantage over blues in protecting the flag.

Plus, I'm doing this reverse CTF style, so having the flags under their cooresponding teams wouldn't work with the idea. Nice suggestion though, I'm just saying :)

Plus I just love the idea of actually racing to get to the flags, and then entering the melee instantly just to keep up with things--flag carrier or not. This map would prevent flag carriers from just sitting on their asses and waiting... you gotta be right under where your opponents are spawning if you want to cap.

Oh sorry, I finished a rough a while ago... I'll put it up tomorrow.

Woot, can't wait :D

if you don't like headstone's, i'd be glad to do it!

if you dont like rabids, id be glad to do it

Darn, it was free long ago, now suddenly everyone
runs out of ideas and we come to this map...
Darn it.

^mwahaha. i claimed it second.

i was just kinda kidding so sgt can be next...im busy with restoring my old maps.

well since no one has done [CENSORED] ....ill start it and complete it tonight

Don't double write, and I had the idea of doing this map too.

Did you have it before Dec 3rd? xD
Anyway, i'd say having the map done is what counts. I'm expecting it already :P

i did the polygons...i hate doing scenery sometimes so i havent started with that. I made it multitextured.

yeah I lost it

it wasn't very good anyways

here's the one by souldnipa and me http://www.soldatforums.com/topic.asp?topic_id=30732 (no waypoints yet)
Renamed it to ctf_buriedgold cause it was to long for the dl system.

that ship map is great....im gonna make map with floating ship and if you drop off you sink in the bottom and die.....gonna b fun xD i know most of u know this but mm1 scenery makes great water with frequency low and color cyan.....(now ur gonna call me noob bot wotever).....
