Speaking of 5 minutes it took me that long to get to the opposite side of the map. Basically the map is a box with based from other maps imported in and stuck in a cliff. The map is just pointlessly big and terrible. It would take someone hours to find someone to shoot at and then when they die they will have to spend another hour looking around again. The fog gives you no visibility and stops the player from seeing the actual layout of the map. Dont bother to download, you will get bored unless the server is FULL and even then it will be boring. Heck, what you intending the Scarab's to be used for? It would take someone at least 20 minutes to get to the other side of the map in a Scarab. And then the projectiles would take like 5 minutes to hit someone flying high in the sky. Did you think about what would happen if someone lost their vehicle when in the middle of the map? They would be forced to kill themselves. The BSP is just soft selection and drag, with two shaders applied for grass and cliff. The tunnel needs more polygons as it looks terrible where the texture swaps, huge seam on like 5 edges which make up the entrance. You need to plan your map and make it like 1/10 smaller... it is awful. although u may not like the map i dont think theres any need for this kind of negative rant, if u have suggestions for the author maybe u could find it within urself not to b so offensive in ur delivery. the way u deliver a crit shows a complete lack of tact and social skills. Edited by Ubergoober on May 29, 2011 at 05:54 AM This is not a rant, it is valid crit. If you don't like the way I give it then go cry to someone else. ------------------------ Regarding the post saying "I don't care about your opinions". Well, fair enough, but my post in particular is partly an opinion but mainly valid crit. Don't make a thread for a bad map and don't expect crit, i'm guessing you was expecting pats on the back ay? Next time just upload it to the FTP then instead of doing this. And we ARE your audience, so our opinions matter, you should listen in order to improve your maps (which is in great need). Dont have the all butt-hurt attitude of "I DONT CARE"... I think u misunderstand. i agree, everyone's opinion is valuable and im sure the map's author wants to here everyone's opinion. some have more to contribute than others because they are more knowledgeable on the topic. but the crit u gave was completely usless. have you heard of CONSTRUCTIVE criticism? it might go something like this (example) ~ What i'd like to see: a) more details in the cliffs b) ra ra ra ra ra c) blah blah blah im not a big fan of big maps because ra ra rarararar, but if u could incorporate that element of gaming into it, it could b interesting. and thats all u need to say, theres no need for "oh thats rubbish, i could make that in 5 minutes, i hate big maps, blah blah blah" because the only purpose that serves is to: a) make the author feel bad b) make u feel big (but makes u sound like an ass-hole) c) start a flamewar d) make one less person want to post in these forums e) make one less person want to continue map-making and one less person who wants to b a part of this community.

This is HaloMaps, what do you expect?
I really hate saying/typing that >.< The OP, however, does need to rethink the map. The Maw has been redone several times and each of those aren't suited for fluid and fun gameplay (just RP, I think). TBQH, it just seems like another Extinction-themed map that only noobs would want to play. I would suggest trying his luck in making/modding a much smaller/compact map instead of these oversized maps that no self-respecting player would use. I'll admit, I do go on Coldsnap every now and again, but that's only because there aren't any servers with good maps on (usually), at least half a dozen are oversized maps (take your pick on which one to rag on), and the rest of the servers are the standard maps with/without crappy PC mods. Simply put, we need more small and fun maps along with servers to run them. |

Jesus this is still going on?
ok it's a terrible map with no thought out gameplay, and it'll probably be one of the most popular things ever because it has longswords or something. Why do we need this many pages on that? |

Because this is HaloMaps: where everyone loves to argue about everything and attempt to put everyone else down in the process :|

Ok I'm going to quickly give you some constructive criticism, as it seems you do not know how to. First thing don't go around telling people to plan there maps out, or rethink it when you do not know what the maps original plan/intention is, for example the intention I had for modeling this map was for it to be big, and pointless for the sole purpose of testing out map size limit, and seeing how big I could get it for my own enjoyment. I did not in anyway expect it to have great gameplay and for it to be some fun map for everyone to play, in fact we did not even plan on releasing it until a last minute decision since we didn't want it to just keep on siting on a hard drive for nearly 3 years like it has. Second don't make exaggerated sayings like " it looks like a 5 minute job" because it makes you look stupid, like you don't know what you are talking about, because if you did, you would know that a model like that could not be done in 5 minutes. And lastly the overall way you seem to go about trying to give criticism makes you look like you are jealous, or angry at the author for some unknown reason, which is strange because I don't even know you.
