obitus maps - NEW MAP IMMINENT FACE OFF 2013

[Fips]

I'm a bit sad that Face Off v2 isn't in this patch -- I don't want to add tons of detail if it ends up not being worth a spot in rotation / not fun.

It is.

The time to attack the port city of Ag'yggran'ya'yan was right.  Stone masons hadn't yet finished the double thick rock wall around the main gate's winch.

Okay, before i add this update: Move the spawns. Spawning so close to the wall with more than 40 players on each side will not be cool.

I also removed some unnecessary knocked over stools

Why on earth did someone put a gap in the middle of the bridge on this map? It just results in the same old boring shield wall vs shield wall until some people jump and get nudged down the gap:/

Not like there aren't two other bridges you can cross or anything, it's also usually whatever team jumps over first that wins anyhow.

That's why

REMOVE THIS MAP NOW, PLEASE. There is no other map that makes me go "oh no not this map" like chasm.

[WITCHCRAFT]

The main bridge is gimmicky, but I enjoy this map.

[Fips]

Not sure if obitus is still around, but how about he puts another (or move one of the existing ones) smaller bridge close to the main bridge? So you can still use that gap if you want to but there's another way that is just as close.

I agree with Zlisch, there are other options, no idea why noone actually uses them if the big bridge pisses them off so much.

This map works perfectly fine for most people whenever I play it and seems to be thoroughly enjoyed by 90% of the population. ranged shoot over and one team either masses for a push or splits up and flanks across for a chance of ambushing them.

Who would jump across a gap of death and into a shield wall and not expect to get nudged down?

[Teeth]

In my opinion the map is just oversized. The walking distances to other crossings make them fairly irrelevant for infantry. Putting the flanking options much closer would probably do it some good.

[phnxhdsn]

Not that it is also heavily ranged favored? but i guess that doesn't matter as everyone is ranged now anyway.

I agree with Zlisch, there are other options, no idea why noone actually uses them if the big bridge pisses them off so much.

I think it's because the main bridge is the only bridge which provides cover from ranged due to the upward tilt, preventing visibility.  The other bridges do not.

The broken bridge is actually closer to both spawns than the main bridge.  Infantry can also just jump the cliff gap where it's narrow, but there's not enough cover from ranged to incentivize these routes.

I'll give this one an update, and Pitfalls needs some graphics fixes as well.

I disliked the map ever since the change. You can still nudge opponents off the side of the bridge if necessary. Actually found myself using all 3 bridges more when there wasn't a gap since you can ensure that the teams would be clashing, so there would be more opportunities to sneak in. If the other team is just camping their side, going along the side bridges is more risky since there's no pressure yet.
