Ice Trap - Alpha 3
« on: February 04, 2009, 12:01:37 am »
Thats my first instagib map. Yes, i know about 'no alpha map posting', but its just name. In real its seems beta long time.
This map maked ONLY for instagib! With ESD and other stuff. Map tested and have funny gameplay. 3+ players for real game. Many tactic possibilities. It have very simple design, main target was gameplay. =) You can test this map on 'IIIIIIJust4Fun - Development' server by calling:
/callvote instagib
/callvote nextmap ig_icetrap_a3
Sure all votes must pass =] But its not problem, almost always instagib there. =]
Poor lights, not optimized on this moment. For layout making map still contain one egg and OM in hidden room. They can be deleted before layout saving.
You can download it here: http://files.filefront.com/map+ig+icetrap+a3pk3/;13191033;/fileinfo.html



Sorry for english. Im rly suck in spelling. =]

Hardcore gameplay dont let you much time exploring rocks surface. =] Like i said - map design very simple. I dont think that smooth rocks (they not underwater, so sharp a bit :)) with more poly can expand gameplay. But i'll see what i can do with this closer to release. =]

Cant ever imagine how standart gameplay can be released on this map. It simple. No place for bases. System of caves can help, but I dont  think that volcano-style map can offer really good gameplay. =]

Dunno. =] May be for prisoners surveillance? =D Actually in alpha1 tower was one wide-open high camping point and only the way up. Now its just can give additional advantage on short time, be hideout on ESD or alternative way up if common tunnel full of blood-minded maniacs like it can be. (As we discovered - most peoples forgot about tower from time to time... until someone smart start sniping from it.=D )

you can always add an underground tunnel system. and have one base up on a hill with steep steps and the other in a pit at the top of a hill

Yes, but look up there... i can repeat if you too lazy like all of us =]
I dont think that tunnel/cave system can provide good gameplay in standart mode on this map. It need too many changes, and even with them, I suggest, map wont be so balanced and fun as on instagib mode. Sad, but truth. The only solution I see - make another map in same theme. =]
(hope i explain my position good enough=)

I'm guessing because it's for "Instagib." :P

Ye... we trying make instagib mod more 'tremulous-style'. This map was maked for first release of our mod (approx. 20-25 hours of work).
BTW, thanx for help with solving our mod questions. =D

This is VERY nice map. There is only one problem - is for instagib. :-(

Why not make more underground caves also for aliens? It would be nice.

Yes, this map is really awesome, I just wish it was balanced without instagib too, so I could play it more often :(

It's...It's.... (I cant beleive you have gone against the Tremulous code, but "GOD!!" I ama glad you did it. Been waiting for it to happen). It's.... OUTSIDE!! WHAT HAVE YOU DONE!?!?!?! I don't know what it is, but you sir, are an absolutely, incredibly, amazingly, stupendously, chocolate smothered legend. HOW DARE YOU DISOBEY THE CODE! THIS MAP IS OUTSIDE! You sir, deserve a medal. Or better yet a statue. A statue made of medals.


THANK YOU!!!!


PS: I like the map. =D
