Ok, so Deflection got some divided opinions so far. Its all good. It was a learnful experience. I wanna do something myself now. Create a whole new CTF map out of scrap. Problem is, I have no fn idea where to start or what people would like. What would you like to see in a CTF map? (beside 2 flags lol) in terms of Layout and Object placement (Health/Armor/Weapons) Post your idea's, post a layout if you want. Hit me up. |

 Blue and red are flags. Orange is flak. I'm thinking this map has all the makings of a popular map. ------------- http://www.youtube.com/tridrokun" rel="nofollow">

EDIT: BLUE FLAG IS SYMMETRIC!

Maybe this whole concept of '2 flags' should go. be different! Have only blue flag + flak ------------- http://www.youtube.com/tridrokun" rel="nofollow">

That would be boring. It might be fun for once but that will annoy people at a longer period |

1 flag ctf, worked the there is a neutral (white flag) in center of the map and it is scored by running it to the oposite teams base, also good fun tho smaller reflection type maps wouldnt work as well. would work great on hydro for sure ------------- I am an Exit!psn KuPcAKeDESTR0YER.NoTh1nG__FaCe.Y1NsSeVeRiTy.SuM_RANDOMN008.

Flags + a neutral flag =/= 1 flag and I'm not saying to change the rules to king of the hill like :o ------------- http://www.youtube.com/tridrokun" rel="nofollow">

well yeah there is a flag in each base where you score 1 flag ctf, red blue and the neutral flag/football basicaly. its a fun mode. makes for epic games cause when you got campers you pretty much have to push the flag into there base, "score by brute force" is how i think you refeered to a flag run style the other day lol ------------- I am an Exit!psn KuPcAKeDESTR0YER.NoTh1nG__FaCe.Y1NsSeVeRiTy.SuM_RANDOMN008.

Hey Darkness, Can you create a map that's totally awesome ? Sort of basically made of awesomeness, if you know what I mean. That'd be awesome.------------- B-B-BucKetHe4D ! |

try emulating the layouts of a few of the quakelive ctf maps.. maybe im saying this for my own personal gain as id love to play them as unreal maps.
but Siberia, and Ironworks.. would work great IMO -------------

Agreed with deadaim quakelive did have good ctf maps..but imo...drop the flak or put the flak ina ridiculously hard to get spot 1 flak on the map...this would reduce flak spam which would make for 2 things...people need to aim a little more and a bit better flag run (if defense isn't so great)...you kids need to learn how to not rely on flak so much. -------------

have just one flag spawning randomly in the middle of the map. to cap it you would have to take it to a point in the enemy's base. there's a mode like this in KZ3 called Search and Retrieve. Lots of fun! ------------- |

Send me some layouts and I'll see what I can do. Im preparing myself for a week off and HOPEFULLY will finish even 2 maps lol. Currently workin on CTF-Celestial. My first out of scrap made map lol. A pic is up in my Custom Content thread. But send me some Quake Maps you like and Ill see what I can do. Its hard to redo a Quake map if you haven't played the map before.. :P So you deffo need to give me some feedback if you want this.

That could be possible. If it would be awesome, It would definitly be awesome. I am currently working at an awesome map. Now just need to know what defines awesomeness XD! ------------- PC Specs: Intel i5-4960K 3.4GHz Crucial Sport 16GB 1866 RAM GeForce GTX970 4GB VRAM Antec 1100 Tower Case NZXT Sleeved Blue LED Kit 1M 2x 2TB Seagate HDD 2x 256GB Samsung SSD |

I played that on KZ3 as well. Its indeed quite good. Haha that would be fun on UT3 tho.Only thing is.. CTF Sequences don't allow up to one flag in the map or it will give ALOT of errors while cooking/publishing the map. Perhaps in the near future if someone decides to bring out another mod or something............ Dont think so................................. But................ Ah well...................... We will see.................................................. ------------- PC Specs: Intel i5-4960K 3.4GHz Crucial Sport 16GB 1866 RAM GeForce GTX970 4GB VRAM Antec 1100 Tower Case NZXT Sleeved Blue LED Kit 1M 2x 2TB Seagate HDD 2x 256GB Samsung SSD |

well do you have a decent pc? it would be easiest if you want to go to quakelive.com and download the plugin.. add "deadaim_" and we could load a server and ill give you a tour of a few maps. I tried to look for layouts online and couldnt find any. -------------

Nuketown from COD should be made into a ctf map... LOL jk not another spamming map. ------------- http://chochy.tumblr.com/ Follow :) |

No Chochy, its actually a pretty good idea :O
Its should be done in 3h work. Since its so small. If we place all spammy weapons inside the buildings, we could prevent some spam.
Haha really fun idea.
Ill look into that tomorrow nite. ------------- PC Specs: Intel i5-4960K 3.4GHz Crucial Sport 16GB 1866 RAM GeForce GTX970 4GB VRAM Antec 1100 Tower Case NZXT Sleeved Blue LED Kit 1M 2x 2TB Seagate HDD 2x 256GB Samsung SSD |

Im running dual SLI (2 videocards) so that shouldn't be a prob :P ------------- PC Specs: Intel i5-4960K 3.4GHz Crucial Sport 16GB 1866 RAM GeForce GTX970 4GB VRAM Antec 1100 Tower Case NZXT Sleeved Blue LED Kit 1M 2x 2TB Seagate HDD 2x 256GB Samsung SSD |

Ok so I got the layout ready. I used this model to scale the map. http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/818/830pxnuketownbird.png/" rel="nofollow">  Its just a LITTLE bit bigger then the official COD version. Since there are no exact replica's of the materials used on for exam. the houses or cars in the middle area. Really fun idea. It probably wont take long. Keep your brain working there bro. ------------- PC Specs: Intel i5-4960K 3.4GHz Crucial Sport 16GB 1866 RAM GeForce GTX970 4GB VRAM Antec 1100 Tower Case NZXT Sleeved Blue LED Kit 1M 2x 2TB Seagate HDD 2x 256GB Samsung SSD |

idk if your good with maps you will make it work? Bro.... I could even turn your mums face into a map and put a fat necris tenticle in her mouth XD So ill think I will replace those with something else. Some badass Necris tentacles or with some custom UT3 vehicles. Indeed, opening the map a bit more for some space for flagrunning. Good idea as well. Ill see what I will do with the weapon/armor setup. ------------- PC Specs: Intel i5-4960K 3.4GHz Crucial Sport 16GB 1866 RAM GeForce GTX970 4GB VRAM Antec 1100 Tower Case NZXT Sleeved Blue LED Kit 1M 2x 2TB Seagate HDD 2x 256GB Samsung SSD |
