Title: DM Map: Pillar Panic (Beta 1)
Post by: sago007 on September 17, 2008, 09:06:19 AM
Another map that might not make it anywhere... it was an old idea that I just had to see in practice.

You run around a lot of pillars. Enemies can come from any side at anytime. It might be too much in the end but I had to try it. It works OK in instantgib against bots but with normal weapons you often don't get enough time to kill the enemy.

I bet that was a difficult map to make... :D

It does look cool though, but it may not be very useful.

I'd love to run on the pillars fragging the low life forms :D

The only problem was aas wouldn't be compiled. The bots had to be serious limited because of the (for a bot) advanced layout.

That is surprising for such a map, what were the errors?

A nice simple map I'd say.

I encourage you to play around with it (design wise) by making pillars fall on each other and introducing new pieces.

PS: Is all content of the map gpl 2 ?
