Title: Map idea - laser quest
Post by: i_am_a_pirate on March 05, 2008, 03:54:14 AM
I was thinking that maybe we could have a team CTF of some laser quest place. Dunno if anyone has one near them, but I've been in a few. They'd be awesome as there are so many routes and CTF would be excellent for them.

Problem is it has to be REALLY dark.  Camping would be fun though.  Plus if you actually do it make sure there are walking bridges and not very much light around.  Makes it alot more fun.

Not sure how CTF would work, though... One upstairs and one downstairs?

I think 1-flag would work better

too bad func_laser and func_explosion were removed,  it would really work in this map.

I think it's a bit too cramped, my local place is miniature.

Func_explosion (not a paintball map, but it works fine):

theres a map in the beta server called bunker battle or something.  i think it would have the perfect look for a laser-tag map with a lttle editing

Could always resize and scale it up. Maybe edit it a bit.
I started one a wile back, and couldn't remember how my local place looked. It may be better as a deathmatch map.

Are there such things as maps that people post, then get other people to add, then others, until you end up with a killer map? People could implement their own local place, then put the best together for a really good deathmatch map

A map that was community made by a handful of people.  The idea was great and worked out pretty nice.  Not sure if the map ever got finished though.

LOL @ THAT IDEA!!! (the community map: Supershift, and not actually the Laser Quest Idea That pwns.)
Well it started ok, but then I didn't do anything when it was my turn, and SmackWaters disappeared into the void of "no forum activity" so that whole project went bust.  Oh well, there was another community map project that started like a week after that one, and it got fairly big I think.
