Maybe I'll put some vents in it later and resize the hive room.
But I like it <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->

Do you?
Feedback plz.

but that upstairs area far right seems kinda big... i think. can't tell

looks good, but it is hard to imagine the two layers in 3D

I don't think it is too big. After all it is a death match map, so big areas are welcome for the teams to meet and battle it out 10 vs. 10.

Wurmspawn

is it just me, or is there a fairly direct black route from the MS to the hive?
if you can run right at their spawn, why search out the opponent when you have the advantage.
unless the spawn points are concealed or hard to camp...
otherwise it looks pretty good.

The CC is upstairs and the Hive down? If so it looks good. This might clarify it for some people:

Jezpuh

That is correct enforcer.
As for the big room on the right, it's split in 2 halfs.

Fieari

It seems to me that co maps don't really have many requirements as far as layout goes. The marine and khaara start should be on opposite ends from each other, there should be more than one route between them, and there shouldn't be any "useless" places to go... but those guidelines are really easy to follow, and this one meets them as well.

Just add lots of things in the big room. Maybe have an arch in the middle of it. Have a fountain on the side or maybe pillers, with a couple knocked over.

Big rooms like that present great oppertunity. I would make it beautiful and then make it the major chokepoint.

PS Jez, where do you get that thing to make layouts? Every time I try in NS paint it comes out terribly.

Ooh!
I use PowerPoint, it's really great for simple line-drawings.

well he does have 3 staircases between the levels.. and the starting points are a level between eachother so i don't unnderstand where you are comming from with this...

I'm only saying that there's less reason to post a thread asking "Is my co map layout okay?" than to post a thread asking "Is my ns map layout okay?" Normal NS maps have lots and lots and lots of things that can make or break balance... but co? Nearly anything'll work out okay. Maybe there are things to avoid, but not having actually played yet, we wouldn't know anyway.
