Hey, there is no map submission format yet, please dont kill me if i forgot something.

Map name: Bourg Robinas
Creators: Swift_Siren ChRobin Plive
Gamemode: Capture the flag
Description: a small CTF map with many hidding spots, secrets and ways to the flag. Note to TNM: I followed your instructions to make the flags more obvious and less stuff on the roads.
Screenshots:
-Spawns:


-Flags:


-Stuff:



You can get to the map using /warp RobinPls on Create

IMPORTANT EDIT: i forgot to mention that i would like 4 Captures to win, since the map is small.
also #first

I just looked at the map on Create. While it is an interesting concept, there are a few problems with the map.

- I my opinion, the map is way TOO small. Due to sightlines, it will be extremely easy to spawn kill/camp. Aka camping team deathmatch instead of CTF. (Which we all love ;) )
- Distance from spawn to flag. It takes red about 4.5 secs to reach their flag. While blue takes about 6 secs.
- Map balancing for teams. Red has 2 options to leave their spawn area, while blue is forced into the flag area.

If I had to rate this map,
Design: 7/10
Gameplay: 2/10
Replayability: 4/10

The map is looks extremely nice. So good job there. But with a gameplay mindset, I just don't think it makes the cut. Sorry :/

The map is small, but it just might make up for itself in that manner. It's a very detailed, nice build, and I personally wouldn't mind seeing this on AoD, at least for testing. I'm not going to vote though because I actually don't know if maps are being taken/what the map submission format is/if I'm on the AoD staff team. But if I were to vote I'd give you a +, saying maybe make it larger.

Sorry for my late reply. I did have a look at the map on create, but I don't think it would suite the CTF game mode due to these problems:
1. It is way too small (I do realise you only had a small plot to work in) and as far as I'm concerned there is only one way to each flag? I think with more than 4 players online this map will be impossible.
2. It is very difficult to find the flag. Even in creative mode it took me 5 minutes
3. There isn't much open space which is needed in CTF

However, it is an extremely detailed and a nice build. If you can use a bigger plot, could you stretch the map in the x and z direction to make it bigger? I think it would be a lot better being twice as big.

Sorry, but for now I'm going with a -1

As a side note, I don't mind other peoples opinion on maps as currently we don't have any aod staff. Thanks

Hey, can this thread get removed ? I agree with everyone: gameplay is actually bad.
I will repost the submission when everything will be better
