Detailed description

Ive finally assembled a map thats "worthy" enough to be on quadropolis.
That's why i present you, scemd3!

the map is designed for deathmatch, with a min. of 2 players and a max. of 8 players. at least i prefer 4 players on the map.
scedm3 is included with waypoints, even tough bots dislike the platforms pretty much, just because they cant jump like a "human" player can.
the map isnt actually themed, im sorry for that even tough i dont got much ideas to put a theme to this map (so if neccasery, all ideas are welcome)...

improvements:
(01)
- added more "random" textures in the map.
- some more geometry added.
(02)
- gamemplay of the map has been created on a more "defensive" style, while flow wont lacks because of it.
- jumppads replacing the teleport to the highest platfrom. this increases the flow in the intire map (even tough it takes the purpose of the sub-platforms to each primary platform away. this only counts for modes like insta or efficiency. when playing ffa youll lose like 45% of all ammo in the intire map if youll only use jumppads to navigate).
- lighting has been reviewed. places in maps where even the ground was very dark, has been lighted more.
- waypoints have been changed to all improvements. bots can fully play on the intire map.
- the steepest ramp to the highest platform has been reconnected to the ground, so players can acces the platforms easier then before (if they got some plan to keep the enemy away on top of the ramp, or zigzag between the horizontal platforms on the ramp).
(03)
- lighting has been reviewed another time. more different lights has been added, so its easier to navigate in the map.
- texturing has been changed a bit. the curved platforms with the jumppad on it, are now textured to a red, or blue colour (with a fitting light above it).
- geometry has been changed a little bit.
- gameplay has been also been reviewed. some health are putted on the ground, instead of having 5 health entinities on above the ground.
- waypoints are updated again.

i hope you all enjoy it!

ps. im sorry got uploading the same map twice now (even tough deleted the old content), but after waiting for like a week for some more (usefull) comments, i decided to try it on a different way then just reposting a comment.

Unacceptable, there is a reason you're not getting comments. The map isn't that good to begin with, hence the Quadropolis policies of only having content of some value to the public. This isn't a bad map, per se, but certainly not worth reposting just to try to solicit comments (because it won't work anyway, and you're wasting our time investigating a new node that really isn't new).

Do it again, and I will have to consider disciplinary action. We tell you to bump nodes with comments for a reason, it allows people to see the entire history of a node.

-.-?
can i ask why other people do got the chance to upload their maps several times and i dont?
further, as you can read after the screenshot (sorry dont got a name for it) there have been pretty much improvements, so why not checking out the map again?

People don't get chances on this, they're playing with their luck, and will burn sometime. Not a reason to follow them or use their example as an excuse for doing something you shouldn't. ;)

When you re-upload your map just leave a comment and your node will be bumpped back up to the top of the side bar. It's not like after two weeks your node will be deleted or something. All the maps I've released on quadropolis are still here, and one of them is at least a year old. If I leave a comment on one of them it'll will bump it above yours.

now as for your map I will vote again, because I made the same mistake you did once. ^_^
don't get discouraged, we just want to help.
6/10 for now, I think all the improvements you've made are good. keep it up!

Lol i had to Upload my Map again , because After 2 days it was Away o.o ( Not deleted , but the Map file and the screenshot had been cutted off )

i don't think its unacceptable , don't take it too hard , He just uploaded it again and has to take the consequences on His own

I wont vote again ( As à consequence of)

it's an okay map, but i wouldnt have reuploaded it. nor would i play on it often.

Suicizer | 2010-03-18 10:23

to skiing_penguins,
can i ask why you both give them pretty low rating (exclusive the case the map has been uploaded twice, that shouuldnt actually bother gameplay, flow, detailing, lighting, geometry and texturing of the map)?

to mystery,
as you uploaded your map at least twice either, i still voted for your 2nd time of posting to :P.

hihi okay youre right

mhelenurm | 2010-03-19 00:08

I like the concept, add more detail, and ill rate it again!
I really like the facts that:
1: you didnt use mapmodels
2: you did a really great job with noclip
Better lighting would be nice (make the light radiuses smaller, so there is a little less light, so the smaller lights seem more exagerated)
all in all, 8/10
very nice map

MasterTechCC | 2010-03-20 16:47

You did it again suicizer
Maps with no mapmodels are my favorites because they don't lag me ^_^
Good layout here looks nice - Could use some improvement on the lighting as well
overall 8/10
