Okay...

I have re-added the armory and bridge.

the bridge is only accessible through a secret teleport, which is more on covie side. This will lead to the bridge, then another teleport will lead to the hangar, in a concealed section.

This will promote strategy and teamwork, and it will probably take more than sniper camping to protect blue flag now.

I'll probably decrease the secrecy of the teleporter.

i was refering to the fact that anyone, like me, who uses vehicles to camp or do base attacks [using the main gun or snipe in the side seat] can't do so with the wraith or the spectre because for some reason the zoom doesnt do anything when you are in the side seat of the wraith or the spectre

i like everything in the map the only problem i found was it was too hard to stear the scarab so far awsome map

where do you mean?

I guess so. At least until they see you, jump in a pelican, and blow you to bits.

lol

HAI GUISE! WAZ GOIN ON HERE?!

hey, new problem

WHERE ARE ALL THE COVENENT PHANTOM SEATS!

Another pelican added inside hangar. I think that'll be the last vehicle added to the map.

What?
Edited by Officer egg on Oct 4, 2008 at 07:41 PM

theres no seats in phantom, the 8 or 9 passenger seats....

Yes there are?

1-what do you guys think of the idea of mobile needler[or shade] turrets with jump jets? [they would have maybe five seconds of air time but thats plenty of time to dodge missiles and fare off a few dozen rounds... also... we are in need of some decent mobile{single person} firepower... the humans have hogs the covie have nothing that can't be taken down by any noob with a little bit of skill]
2- has anyone else realized that you can kill a scarab with the brute ghost...?[good job egg... you removed the only thing the covie side had that could possibly kill the scarab... now what are we gonna do... get pwned by a scarab camper?]

Sexy new BSP by bobbysoon will eliminate your fears.

Then you will have to re populate it, re run lightmaps, yata yata

Yeppers. :D

Actually, it'll be a healthy start from scratch. I'm feeling good about it.

Dont add eggs plz

so all was done was texture changes, and a couple of bsp changes. make a whole new BSP

is there really gonna be fog?

that lava looks nice btw ^_^

Yeah, if there was no fog, you would have to watch the level draw itself all the time :/

Remember, bobbysoon made the bsp.

1- i saw you tilted the halcion... does this mean you scrapped the hanger or is it tilted?
2- the lava is a nice touch... will it kill?
3- omg... nice covie cruiser... i see a bobbysoon origional... ^_^... is the cruiser grounded for anti air assaults and if it is will the hanger be accessable?

No, the lava, being very very hot, will not melt you, but give you a year supply of free
chocolate chip cookies!

the hangar doesn't just go if the ship is tilted. or on the ground...

I grounded the covie ship because it fit better that way. It just didn't look right to me sitting on those cliffs like that. The gravlift only half worked (not for vehicles), so I scrapped that idea.
I'm gonna add a hanger to each, making the poa accessible from the ground. the covie ship is already. There's a couple places you can drive on top of it and get in.

Well Where Do You Think They Got THe Weapon Colours? Unless They Stole Crayons,.

Lightmaps are orangebrown. :P

What gap? and no.

BSP is fine. if it was smaller it wouldn't be suitable for the vehicles it contains.

At least 6v6 teams, at least 8player FFa, I say.

Destroyer, that gap is meant to be there. It is the covie stronghold area.

1- as for the question about why the covie ship is brown:
a) it looks better and since this is a map with two 'crashed' ships, it only seems logical that the covie ship is covered in dust
b) and if thats not the case then... its cause it looks better
2- as for the fog comment:
a) the fog is still there because we had requested something to cover the clipping distance issues and it protects from people sniper-camping and vehicle killing sprees
b) if you want to get technical on how it matches up to the bsp dirt theme, simply, it is a major dust storm that hasn't settled yet from the ships crashing :P
3- i am so glad that the covie ship has a functional hanger... will it too, like the halcion, have a bunch of random hallways leading to and from the hanger?
4- has bobbysoon adressed the issue of missing bsp peices to the right of the bridge past the cliffs?[this is from the pov of someone who is coming out of the halcion hanger in the origional version]

apart from the uv suggestion i gave in the other topic a few days ago (more specifically about the cruiser); ive noticed the 'tunnels' through the cliff dividing red and blue, i can see that its a hexagonal shape, perhaps improving on it may help?

It also takes too long to get to the hanger, or so it would seem in the youtube video, more so because you used a hog to get there asap o.O

I also recommend more tris overall on the terrain to improve on the map?

I like your suggestions, dhark, switchblade...

I can easily allow more access to the hangar. however, it will not be the only focus point of human forces.

can i be a beta tester if i can my xfire is jescon and its loocking alot better then the original
