Hmm, Map Suggestion Inside...

<div class="IPBDescription">Not a standard NS map, for sure.</div> I'm wondering if any of you are skilled enough to make a 'warming up' map to play pre-matches in clans, for improving our ridiculously-crappy-when-not-warmed aim and hearing and, well everything. Could either be a "shooting range" (with panels that take damage) kind of map, or just a free roaming map where, for example, one player is a Marine, 3 hives are up and the rest are Aliens and they switch turns. Anything interesting goes <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='smile.gif'> I don't really care about the level of detail of the map, as long as the stuff I'd like to see is in there =) Any takers? Could be a new mapper's chance to learn some stuff, too <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='smile.gif'>

Okay what else should be in such a warmup map?

Hmm, I'll try and make a list...

1. Of course, the shooting range part. Could be a shooting range, or a large room. Should probably contain the hives, if the later.
2. A simple room to practice your hearing (once you're good at positioning sound, you can easily spot precisely a target). Could be environmental sounds, or more likely just a room with nothing in it and a nice amount of space. Hell, could even be the same room as 1 =)
3. A hazard course for practicing Jetpacking/Lerk Flying/Leaping and probably in a seperate area Blinking, since it's on another level of transportation.

That's about all I can think of right now. Of course, if anyone else has ideas, post them along =)

or you could play stalk the marine

1 vs. 1
the marine gets a shotgun and loads up on ammo, but doesn't get any upgrades. The skulk (also without upgrades) runs into the marine base and parasites the marine (who doesn't shoot back). then the skulk goes and hides somewhere in the map and waits for the marine. After the skulk has parasited the marine and left the base they can both attack eachother. After a battle, the winner isn't allowed to heal, he must find the other player. If the marine dies, the skulk is allowed to go into the marine base and parasite him again. The game ends when someone reaches 10 kills.
