Title: Fighter Town
Post by: sgt203 on June 19, 2007, 11:15:52 PM
I remember the old FT map near the lake (dont know the name) where it was considered poor taste to Vulch, bomb, cap or otherwise interfere with the normal everyday furball....

That does not seem to be the case any longer......

Sad actually.

Donut, one of my favorite maps. Something for everyone, yet it mostly just pissed people off, who in turn spent the rest of their time trying to piss others off.

Pity when a bunch of grown men can't have fun playing a game.

It seems to be a merry band of squeekers that like to poach the kings sheep and take FT bases.  

Poaching the kings sheep is illegal, anyone doing so will be put to death.

Donut was by far the best recent map. The Original OzKansas was the best of them all by far.

Donut proved one thing though... which side in the whinefest was the one that HAD to whee in the other side's Cheerios.

Laz was absolutely right about that with his "their mother had to hang a pork chop around their neck to get the dog to play with them" comment.

I havn't been on this game long enough to have seen that map, sounds inviting I suppose... Does HT ever bring back retiered maps?

Well, the matter, Bnasty, is that we lost the big maps after the arena splitting... when there was just 1 MA, we had maps bigger than the ones we use now (and that have become boring! :o): Donut was one of them. With the split, having less people in any arena, HTC decided not to use the big maps, but only the smaller ones... we all do hope to see some new map, one day... maybe with a nice FT in it! :)

if any one goes and looks in the terrain forum you will find out what can and cannnot be put in to new arena maps

there are now fighter towns aloud

tank towns yes but no fighter towns no 20k mountains no bases above 6 k

The rules for a main arena map are long and tedious and trying to make one that htc like is getting harder and harder

Rog,

       Just cause I really dont feel like reading all the "stuff" about maps.. Would you be able to put three air bases 6.0K close enough together to be a "mini-fighter town"... Maybe a center island like Tank Town 6.0K no vehicle bases no spawns????...

        Just seems a tad unfair to be able to have TT but no FT...

You are all mistaken.

Pizzamap is (or rather was *sulk*) the best one out there.

stg203  the answer would be no the airfilds have to be about 25 miles apart from the nearest base v base or other as a rule.

soo basicly no you cant hav  a fighter town

HT states that they will not accept a map where airbases are < 3/4 of a sector apart. Although in some of the current maps there are some closer but not many. The 6K limit has a lot to do with getting a fully loaded bomber off the ground. Much higher than 6K and it becomes a difficult task. Especially for the noobs.

I almost finished this before the terrain changes. I simply do not have the time to complete this. I was thinking of sending the source files to HTC and see if they would like to complete it. It seemed to generate some interest here on the boards.
