ICEMAN's Maps and Feedback

[Mustikki]

Yes i did. I just have not got much feedback tho. Not sure if thats a good or bad thing. 

Don't know how i missed this thread. Anyway i always try to give some feedback for the map makers.
Generally people tend to only criticise about the maps. So silence is usually the only good feedback you get from maps. 

Tower's inner rooms doesn't usually need doors for defense. Using a door to protect tower's rooms, makes attackers ignore it, as its not worth to use 30-60s to whack a door down, instead they rush for the flag then, which makes attackers then stay together instead than getting separated hunting archers at nests.
Attackers spawns might need to adjust again once it gets some testing.
Bertreford Keep the back way probably won't need doors at keep, as it is already a long way to run around.
Winewic Castle not sure if the through 3 doors is too easy, but that needs adjust too after some testing.

So should i make the changes now you think? or make  a patch after its been tested if needed? if it goes live i could always make a asap patch. as of write now im not sure. and when you say tested. dus that mean live tested or?

Ok. PM me ASAP. if there is a prob with the maps. At what time dus the server restart.... Well restart?

[Elindor]

ICEMAN im hearing from some people in server that Bertreford has some spawns messed up, attackers spawning inside i think?

Maybe check it out.

[Para]

Attackers spawn inside one of the rooms in the keep after their first death on bertreford keep. From that spawn it's a literal 5 second walk to the flag. It's pretty much impossible for defense to win that map. I know this isn't intended, but something is bugged or not set correctly.

In terms of balance for the actual map itself, I find it still to be too easy for attackers to get on to the flag on that map. From spawn I can be on the flag in 30 seconds on my full plate 3 athletics character. It's just too convenient to go up the right ladder and drop straight down on to the flag (approach point 1 on the picture). I've also been abusing the landing physics by bouncing off of the giant billow thing and taking no fall damage from dropping down that right wall (approach point 1).

As far as winewic castle goes, I like this one alot. The only complaint I have about it is that defenders are unable to open the double doors leading in to the gatehouse from the outside.

Keep it up iceman.

Ill look into a quick patch for bertreford keep. Thankyou for the feedback!
I will have a patch out ASAP.

Good feedback Para!

I believe it is ICEMAN's Bertreford Keep map.

The attackers are spawning inside the castle right next to the flag.

This is on NA2.

[ICEMAN1779]

Having some troble with Bertreford_Keep spawn points. I checked like 5 times and thay are correct. 0-32 D. 33-63 A. but yet the attackers are spawning in one tower on the right side inside the castle . i move the spawn points i hope this fixes it.

[Elindor]

ICEMAN not sure if you saw what Mustikki said about spawn points but look at PeasantWomans' guide towards the end of the thread.

Basically spawn points are PROXIMITY related, and CAN use ones from the wrong number set in some cases....its weird.

Basically your defense and offense spawns need to be rather far away from each other.  To be safe id cluster all your offense points around entry point 32 and have it far from defense points

[Digglez]

map needs to be removed immediately, its basically 95%+ chance for attacker win
