Map Battle Discussion

I'll just submit a nodraw box map. Nothing more empty than the void.

[Zecrah]

That crossed my mind too...

[bitPanther]

i have some ideas i could execute in an abstract matter

[Ark11]

Why don't we actually have a mapping contest where you create an entire playable map. Not just a scene. Making random little scenes just seems slightly redundant to me.

[Armageddon]

I agree, a two month playable mapping contests with an actual good theme would be fun.

[Ark11]

Anyone got some good theme ideas . . . ?

[Armageddon]

Interactivity, exploration?

[Arcadium]

3D skyboxes

[Ark11]

I've always wanted to make a rats style map. Like the whole map is just the inside of a radio or something like that.

Sewers, you must fight your way through sewers

Sewers, you must fight your way through sewers

See, this is why you're not making new map battles anymore.

Minigames! A map with lots of small minigames.

most memorable 8 bit game scene fully fleshed out in source engine

[Will_B]

What about 'Luxury'. Create a luxurious scene VIP's would be common. It could range from any setting, past to future.

I do wish this would come back... it was cool to watch the WIPs, then see the results of these battles.
