Map-making Contest by Daskew and Guro

<3

 

Well done to everyone who praticpated on the server.

 

Wow that's a lot of new map. Nice to see the new participants and these awesome maps, good job to everyone
Contest ends in a week, we can do more and better!

 

I'm glad you like it. Here goes your spoon norill

The map originally looked like this


Race-the-Moon

but I figured two major problems,
the first one killed the purpose of the map the second one is something not resolvable with the limited options that offers KAG in mapmaking. (There should be a possibility to set a default map-building-time). The intention of the map's (especially the first) was; dividing the teams with two assignments. First cracking up the armor of the flags. Second prevent the enemy from doing exactly that.

 

What I don't get @H3llO, is that where do you capture the flag when it is out? I can't make out a flag on the ground. Are you supposed to somehow have the other flag(your teams flag) not captured to be able to capture the one that your team captured?

 

I thought about that too. If I placed flags on ground level and your team looses the 'ground level' flag you won't get around to deliver the flag inside the 'moon'. I also can't make the 'ground level' flag unreachable for the enemy (That'd need a "you need X amount of flags captured to win the game" rule). That's why I made a tunnel in my first map. But the map could simply not fulfill my intention (It's a builder only map).

I altered the 'flag armor' so you can get inside from all sides and be able to use explosives and siege to pierce through faster. I placed the flags on the wrong side for a reason. Imagine your own teams flag is placed above you then there'd be no reaon digging inside before your team captures the enemies flag. If its placed on the wrong side you need to get inside to pick up the flag and you are able to denial an enemy capture by taking the flag into your base. The map is pretty small so burying the flag carrier is also not that much of an stalemate issue.

Sidenote: I submitted a wrong version of this map (flagroom is closed from all sides). Resubmit correct one next week.

 

Contest ends on dec 12 lel you should do it soon
I think your idea was the tower rush game where both objective are in the sky. You should place both flag on the middle in a sky-land, that way the faster team can win immediately and you have to defend/attack the towers you use to reach the flags (since they are close to each other).

 

***Deadline Announcement & more

How do you come up with these?! The underground tunnels will place lots of conflict, and the detail is amazing I should say. The bridge in that big cavern is nice.
