Ok, so Deflection got some divided opinions so far.
Its all good. It was a learnful experience.

I wanna do something myself now. Create a whole new CTF map out of scrap.
Problem is, I have no fn idea where to start or what people would like.


What would you like to see in a CTF map? (beside 2 flags lol)
in terms of Layout and Object placement (Health/Armor/Weapons)

Post your idea's, post a layout if you want.
Hit me up.

Blue and red are flags.
Orange is flak.

I'm thinking this map has all the makings of a popular map.

That would be boring. It might be fun for once but that will annoy people at a longer period

lol that is funny, cause you know that possesion was a sweet game mode in quake.  also there was a "1 flag" ctf mode as well and i think that was cool.  possesion worked that either dm based and there is a neutral flag that has to be held the longest (set time) and you score a count down while holding the flag.  i frag your ass take the flag but you time limit stays from the count down,  pretty good time.
 
1 flag ctf, worked the there is a neutral (white flag) in center of the map and it is scored by running it to the oposite teams base, also good fun tho smaller reflection type maps wouldnt work as well.  would work great on hydro for sure

well yeah there is a flag in each base where you score 1 flag ctf, red blue and the neutral flag/football basicaly.  its a fun mode.  makes for epic games cause when you got campers you pretty much have to push the flag into there base, "score by brute force" is how i think you refeered to a flag run style the other day lol

Hey Darkness,

Can you create a map that's totally awesome ? Sort of basically made of awesomeness, if you know what I mean. That'd be awesome.

Agreed with deadaim quakelive did have good ctf maps..but imo...drop the flak or put the flak ina ridiculously hard to get spot 1 flak on the map...this would reduce flak spam which would make for 2 things...people need to aim a little more and a bit better flag run (if defense isn't so great)...you kids need to learn how to not rely on flak so much.

have just one flag spawning randomly in the middle of the map. to cap it you would have to take it to a point in the enemy's base. there's a mode like this in KZ3 called Search and Retrieve. Lots of fun!

I played that on KZ3 as well. Its indeed quite good.
Haha that would be fun on UT3 tho.
Only thing is..
CTF Sequences don't allow up to one flag in the map or it will give ALOT of errors while cooking/publishing the map.
Perhaps in the near future if someone decides to bring out another mod or something............
Dont think so.................................
But................
Ah well......................
We will see..................................................

well do you have a decent pc? it would be easiest if you want to go to quakelive.com and download the plugin.. add "deadaim_" and we could load a server and ill give you a tour of a few maps.

I tried to look for layouts online and couldnt find any.

No Chochy, its actually a pretty good idea :O
Its should be done in 3h work. Since its so small.
If we place all spammy weapons inside the buildings, we could prevent some spam.
 
Haha really fun idea.
Ill look into that tomorrow nite.
