TDM CTF TTH Post accepted maps criticism here

It shouldn't be mandatory, if you want to review a map you should move your ass, download the png, and load it in a single player tdm

 

The screenshots you gave are of crying demon

Regardless i dont agree with your stance that maps with higher mid are unviable for official because people can lose control that bad. I think maps laid out with strong points to overtake ensure that games end and all the nastybusiness that happens in endgame generally happens on all maps(they just dont happen until a longtime in because the game doesnt end due to both teams having strong defensive positions).

CryingDemon deteriorates too much imo so i feel like that kinda ruins the map. I dont think Mazey_Junctions is ruined by there being a chance to gain the highground tho. If people neglect to control a strongpoint that is given to them then the game should end. Flatmaps are generally cool but the biggest issue is that they last forever and only end in tunnelling(because all you have to do is push forward and destroy any tower the enemy builds). If you narrow any map down to its most basic form then it is repetitive(with flats its rush, fight , destroy, repeat for an hour until random tunnelling eventually works).

 

map name: lavaguy678_meadow
issue: no bedrock in mid makes a pit

i know its getting removed from cycle but just have the updated version in the files ;)

 

I don't think we add maps to the game files that won't be played on the official map pool(sorry).

 

Was going to write something for this map, so I'll just add to what was mentioned.

Honestly it is one of the worst maps I've played. It is just too restrictive. I understand the theory behind it but when put into practice, this map just leads to a cluster fest inside of mid, followed by a spamming of blocks and platforms. Like you can't even tunnel over or under mid to create another path, it just forces people into a massive shit fest in mid. It's a cool theory but maybe adding one or two other lanes (That have to be dug out) or a more complicated mid (other than just a bedrock square).

Map Name: Biurza_Stompy_Bois
Issues: Everything is explained below.
Reason:
First of all: the spikes, doesn't seem like a very big problem but for me it is, they really make the movement even worse than it is on the map already(yellow-coloured areas).
Second thing: knight movement. nothing much to explain, just look at the map (orange-coloured areas are the only ones where you can pretty much fight with not that many problems).
Third thing: the little caves or whatever. (dark red-coloured areas) i dont see a point of having them there, knights can just camp there most of the time.
Fourth: obstacles near both spawns (red-coloured areas). dont see a point of having them on the map too, its just additional annoyance.

Spoiler: ok

 

i think its nice to have different fighting areas rather than normal big open spaces like everyone wants, gives some diversity to the game imo.

 

Agree with most of this. Played a few round on it and its a bit of an annoying map. too much focus on aesthetics and gimmicks and not enough on gameplay.

 

I disagree with this, it is obvious to see that a lot of thought when into the flow of the map.

I haven't played the map a huge lot but most matches were fun on it imo. Maybe some tweaks but nothing major needs to be changed.

 

i think you misunderstood me, i was talking about the knight movement here, i definitely agree with you, i'll edit my post so its more clear and understandable

 

for sure, I defiantly see it from both perspectives. I think I must agree with your opinion after some consideration. I spoke to soon in my initial post.
