...map designed and created by cloak of letters..not much to say, enjoy

"So I wanted to make a map. Since I don’t have enough actual skill to make any kind of real map I make gimmick maps instead. What I have this time is something like dustbowl for Team Fortress. The aliens start with three hives, both teams have a bunch of nozzles, and there are five minutes to build before the door opens and the onos charge in. After ten minutes of getting slaughtered the marines get access to a room where they can siege the hives from. The game ends in the normal fashion of killing all of the other team." -Cloak

sounds.... fun....

Zaggaroth · January 2003

You have to be more creative.

Look at the walls.
res towers on one place.
3 hives in the beginning.

its easy to win as marine. when the glas breaks you pu seiges in the ready room and shoot apart the hives.
its easy to win as alien. send in a group of lerkers that gas all the area.
hives are at diffrent places sow it wont become short to play.

I am a little dicepointed.

Before you flame this map, play it and find out if its crap or not. Not all gimmick maps suck, in fact some of the best maps I've ever played for war3 would be considered "gimmick" maps.

This is a decent idea, weather he pulled it off or not is up for debate.... HMG/HA marines vs tons of onos, fades, and lerks doing umbra... hmm? I think aliens gonna win.

Just to let you know, you can get into the rr to siege before the glass blows. All you have to do is build a phase gate through the glass and get in there at set up sieges.

Ollj · January 2003

The ready room should definitely NOT be part of the map!
The ready room should be a Bullet free zone!
If you make glasses between RR and the map make sure that you cant walk or shoot through it.

func_nobuild + clip-brush.

nice disco zone.
theres a HA flickering were it does not belong to.

wanna give it a try without exploiters.

Ollj · January 2003

c|e server had a version of ns_siege, too bad its a veasion not meant to be bublic, because all triggers are (beta) buttons placed at BAD places.
+ lots of bugs in map and server crashes.
was still funny.

Hmm is it me, or does that look like a big turret spammed kill box?

Obliterater · January 2003

It is a big kill box, thats why the enitre alien team is Onos. <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/turret.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='turret.gif'> _____________ <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tiny.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='tiny.gif'>

I just played ns_siege004 with 10 ppl on each team.
I dont know if its the commanders fault of the mappers, bit when the door opens Marines do not have all Ressource towers + HA + HMG + Jetptack.
Im not talking about upgrades.

this map jsut goes in 2 steps:

step 1:

Ollj · January 2003

step 2:

And I suggest:

- Transform the main door area into a long floor with a func nobuild in it.
each big door should be replaced by 2-3 smaller floors with func nobuilds. as replacement for the nobuild (no cc walls) make long hallways for long range advance.
- Make it impossible for fades+lerks to beam and shoot through every glass.
- make the view distance higher. I see fade ammo fliing around, but NO fade.
- replace the marine ressource spot or make a second small ressource spot inside of the siege room.

Boy is that map "bare"

Cringe

Silver_Fox · January 2003

lol ... I knew it ...

I forsaw this whole scenario ...

I can't seriously understand why people think 'speedball' type maps are fun

DiscoDuck · January 2003

Guys stop dising the map before you play it. Good job it's fun as hell

KeksImperium · January 2003

i played it today and its realy funny!!!!

sure its ugly like hell but who cares <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='biggrin.gif'>

Deltron_Z · January 2003

I played 002, and it looks like it would be fun with a bunch of people. But, I think it could get old.

ThePhilips · January 2003

I played it with 20 people and it's fun. We could play it several times and it will never get old, just that it crashes the sever alot ( maybe cuase of all the recourses? ) made me stop running it on the server.

MutantMFM · January 2003

Another crap map. How can this be fun the bases are so close together and the resources are not spread out. These kinds of maps are not fun if you think making a base next to a hive with only a small wall dividing it is fun go get your head checked.

Kakaoo · November 2004

So this is how it all started <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/smile-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile-fix.gif' />
