Map Idea for AvA or other custom arenas
« on: June 23, 2017, 12:41:14 PM »
Here is a quick paint version of the kind of map I'm talking about for AvA, or Team death match type custom arenas.

It is very close quarters, very easy to understand, both teams have to fight within an area. I think it would encourage more players to fight in the AvA.

its based of the Smog 8 map from Ah2.

You obviously have the qualifications. To think.... if you do some paintings then catch a cold, your paintings would be worth so much more.

Bet he was reading a Charlie Brown comic just before he started painting. It's a good copy of that girl named Peppermint Patty.

the ava has many small close quarters maps, lots of fun. we can build almost anything.

as for Monday night madness, I tried to restart it, but no one showed.

I think the bases close together is a good part. Idk, I think this map here is mostly concerned with tanks. Only 1 fighter base on each side. That map just doesn't have a flow to it. It doesn't appear to have an objective. It doesn't look exciting to play on. That is just my opinion.

The AvA seems to have tank night, which is cool and seems to get some players, but is here a fighter night too? I feel like if you can get 5-6 players for a fighter night, in the arena, maybe it would spark more players to hop in and try the arena. Maybe if there was a really cool terrain, it would also bring more players into it. Idk. Maybe nothing will work hahaha.

The old AWDOS Pacific map would make good conversions to AH custom maps.
