god, this map is looking awesome…

(blushing_bride) #5

that looks nothing like any ET map ive seen before so sunny bright and happy

EDIT: ive just had a run round and its quite impressive, i espcially like sitting in a boat, makes a nice change from a tank

(Genesis) #6

very nice… yea the boat replaces a tank just fine…

:banana: for the boat!

things i noticed:

  • when u step out of the boat u almost fall off… i think if u r in combat that will b frustrating

  • nice town and especialy that u can get onto everything! :banana: for the town

  • on ‘the corner balcony’ theres a plant, wich isnt clipped (got there via the roof)

  • Woo! cliffdiving rulez! :banana: for cliffdiving!

  • the place the boat docks first looks kinda ‘straight’

  • though the whole thing fits together, another :banana: for that!

    :beer: beer is on me!

Ho man! Wow! Very impressed, downloading at the moment, just wondering… did you get the sub as a prefab from somewhere or did you make it yourself? Also, would there be any chance that it’s available for use to the mere single mapper I claim to be? …please ?

Was wondering if anyone could host this map on their server so we could get a game going. Probably would give us a greater feel on gameplay.

hosted on fragland.org:27776 (that’s six)

make sure you have the map installed already since I haven’t put it up for www downloads yet.

Nice!!!, awsome map with colors, love the water, makes me want to get my bathing suit on and take a dip…, Im sure this map will get some use!!!

This map is almost like a dream, the azurewater is perfect, the sky was moving, the architecture in the small city was very well perfected, the boat…god…such a nice boat, the submarine room was also really nice, and the cherry on the cake for me, was the Dolphin-fountain, excellent sound, a very nice model. I have to say that you have really done an excellent job on this map man, you can give yourself a pat on the back!

Great map! good job. the custom textures look great, too. Only some very small suggestions:
-the vertex points of the canonpipe are not weld together, so it looks “edgy” and not smooth and round.
-there are some textures missing on some places in the town. You get this orange-black texture instead.
-The polygonoffset textures should have “surfaceparm nomarks”, too. Otherwise the bulletmarks flicker on these textures.

You see, nothing big. You did a great job with this map!

i really like how you made the inside of the bunker. and the palm trees rule!!! maybe some beach chairs and a table with mai tais and other tropical drinks with little beach umbrellas??

Thanks to everyone for all the nice comments.
The whole point of this public beta was to figure out the gameplay balance so if you played the map and noticed it wasn’t balanced please post something. I have posted a bunch of ideas in the feedback section of the website.

The map is supposed to be hard for the allies and it’s supposed to have the same winning rate for them as fueldump or goldrush which is not 50%(at least on “normal” public play). That however doesn’t mean it should be impossible for them…they should still have a decent chance of winning, so please feel free to post any gameplay suggestions.

Now on to bugs:
Thanks to genesis & maggumaster for reporting the bugs.
However the biggest issue i’ve noticed is that the boat sometimes gets bugged(you know the bug where it is damaged but you can’t repair it). I’ve seen this happen in fueldump too sometimes but i’m not sure what causes it. If anyone knows any way to get rid of this problem( SD…you there? ) please post something.

@Mr_Tickles: The sub is a model. I will make all the source files available for download when I release the final version of the map so you can get it then and use it any way you want.

:slight_smile: Wow, thanks. Looking forward to the release :wink:

Had a quick look around the map and it looks amazing! Sorry, can’t comment on gameplay at the moment as have not played online yet… hopefully will soon :slight_smile:

Really loved the environment :slight_smile: No more running around in snow, rain or grey dark tunnels… :stuck_out_tongue:
Have put it up on Billskirnir server as well @ 213.112.91.126:27960 (provided the server does not restart, in which case it will loop Saberpeak and Krakow Armada instead of just Saberpeak).

(Max @ ETGamers.com) #19

WOW ! Awesome map, we loved it so much, we put it in rotation on our 64slot server
