LUNATIC COW

For those of you who have read about the event or seen the movie of the same title, you know that the battle at Hamburger Hill was a difficult uphill battle with slippery slopes, enemy bunkers, and heavy machineguns. I propose a map in which Alpha must take the black flag(that is at their spawn point) up a very steep, almost impossible to climb hill with M2s and sand bags every so often. The white flag would be at the top of the hill. There could be some patches of hill that are naturally slippery like on ice maps, etc.

Braingstorm, let me know if you're interested.

I might use this idea if Blake won't... but I already have so many floating in my head and on my sketchbook :P

I'll draw a little layout of this idea and post it here later so that you would see what I will do.

I know the hill is on the wrong teams and stuff, and the white flag is not on top, I'll try to work it out. So far this is what I've come up with. If you are totally fine with this layout, just say so.

hmm.. I was thinking more of this: [IMAGE]

and no jets.

PS. Excuse the horrible MS Paintoshop

Okay, now I am confused. Is this like a reverse CTF where Alpha team spawns near the black flag and must take it to their white flag up the hill? And what's with the symbol inside the hill? I cannot read the writing near it.

And the little semicircle?

You wrote "trees." So there are supposed to be alot of trees in the map or few?

ok.. Alpha spawns near black flag and brings it up to white, yes. I felt like making a hammer and sickle on the mountaint.. it says bunker, and it is pointing to the left where a bunker is (labeled). And the semicircle isn't important either, I made a taco in the sky for no reason. Trees should be the only cover that red has from blue

Ahh now I understand. The taco threw me off the most.

Alright, as soon as I'm done with CTF_SOS, I'll begin working on this.

Hey, headstone, I won't mind.

Lunatic Cow: We are testing the sceneries for this map so hang on to your underwear! xP

Edak: Thank you :) Inf_H.H. will be released somewhere between March 4-8 :D

=D outstanding! Make sure some part of the hill are slippery (maybe muddy looking).

Yeah the quality's not 100% on those .jpgs
But that's just an update from the W.I.P. map, like E_A said. Just wait until it's finished ;D

Edit: to L_C, of course, some parts are slippery >:D

Eagles_Arrows

Yeah, the area around the bunker and stat gun and top of the hill is slippery.

Another update. There isn't too much left to do, but to fix/add details, waypoints and other stuff.

Responded. Make sure the flame is set to nothing (so that it just has that little burst).
