Detailed description

Sam's Revenge Map (beta)

Game type: DM & TeamDM
Map size: Large
Players: 8-20
Release date: 2007-09-26

Update (beta2):
Reduced number of items in map. Actually, restored them to the initial amount i had in mind when designing it (all items should have memorable places now).

This is my first map for Cube2 engine.
I wanted to try few ideas at first, and pretty soon they turned into quite big map. However, I could not leave it empty :)

Any feedback, especially about gameplay is very appreciated.

Future plans: adding capture game mode to this map, release final version, and move on.

This map reminds me of the classic Quake 1. Don't know why.
It has a nice simple layout and I somehow like the look.
Most other Sauerbraten maps have this “generic” factory/castle/space style but this here is different. You even mixed some texture sets and it didn't hurt. :)

But IMO there are too much items lying around. The map is large, but I don't think that so much items are needed because they spawn very fast.
Most players pick up items while trying to move around in a fast and effective way. If you spread items like you did this isn't always possible. With few items this problem isn't there (again only my opinion).

Anyway I like the map. :D
I rated 3.5 / 5 considering other maps I rated before. :P

Yes, i had doubts about amount of items, and i hesitated a lot. But now they should be much better.

When making this map I wanted it to look clear, so that every platform, entrance/exit is clearly visible.
