I need a Vote for part of my map.

I need a vote on tank town...

  Would you prefer----

1. The standard tank towns we currently have in those other maps with the blank area around them.

2. Just some good old farm land to play hide and seek in the barns, houses and clusters of trees.

3. Rocky terrain could be fun with all the out croppings to duck behind alothough it will make the tanks bounce around a bit while moving.

4. we could just have some plane jane grass with the little hills and such but I think that might be a tad boring. :)

  I would say forest except I don't know about the rest of you but I get massive FR hits when zoomed in on trees now from the last patch. So I would like to keep them to a minimum. The fam land has some but it should still be playable for those having similar problems.

If anyone thinks of another option that would be within the peramiters of MA rules and the editor we can add those to the vote also.

 I would like to keep this a simple vote, majority rules type thing without a ton of text.  I know that a bunch of players don't visit the forum so if you know someone that loves the GV thing and dosn't visit the forum let them know about this. I would like as many people as we can get to chime in on issues that I can put to a vote like this concerning the creation of this new map.  We have lots of time as it will be some time befor this is ready for submission.

 Thanx for you time and let the vote begin.

I say these two combined.  Have the farm land with the spawns on those, but then put a ring of the rocky terrain towards the center.  Helps with the whole spawn-tower-spawn-tower-spawn-tower-spaw......errr, you get the point! :D   The farm land is the best, as when you spawn right in the open all the time and then have to run to hide right when you spawn or else your toast.  I think I mentioned it before but place one of the large cities right in the middle, rocky terrain around that with farm land out side of that for the spawns.  I like hiding in the barns where they have the sheep pens.... uh, yeah... Oh look a plane. :noid

But would HT allow placement of random extra object for an MA environment?

 I thought that was a no no  for MA maps (trying to keep complexity and such down) type thing..  I could be wrong.



Sketch  when you say large cities are you talking about the usuall Tank Towns that are on trinity and such or are you thinking something different?

I'll also put up a current pic of the tank town area showing what I have and what I'm asking for.

For the city I am talking one of the large City-Cities... The ones that are marked with a 'C' on the map.

As far as the whole HT and extra stuff on the map, not sure.  If so, take out the rocky terrain and just do farm land with the city in the middle.  Would be nothing different that what we have now on the Trinity map.  It would just ahve a different city and not as many spots to get stuck in, plus you have water and such around there with hills I think.

Thanx Dichotomy  it dose make things hard some times though lol hard to make everyone happy :)

Sketch  I would love to use the BIG cities as they fill up the entire tile and have hills and such in them but I can't seem to get them to be blank cities. Every time I put them in no matter what I do the game thinks they must belong to one side or other and the guns start firing if you happen to be on the wrong team.  If anyone knows how to fix this my vote would be for them also.

and heres the pic of Tank Town.


  Hope this helps clarify things a bit.  (edit)  fixed lol I went to the HiTech school for spelling :)

Ranger did you get the guns to shut off on those big cities???

 Those are the ones that I would love to put in.   I'll bet most Gvers would be happy with those type...

If the city (or cities) stay assigned to a country it will turn into a perk fest with nothing but ostis, m16s, m8s, Lancs, stukas................... bombing and shooting the buildings for points.

I agree though that the layout of the city would be a great change.  I would vote for .. 2.


PS>   for all the work.
