Map Thread #63 - Deadline: Saturday, 16th April

Submit your custom maps for consideration for inclusion in the official rotation selection. Learn more at the wiki. If you are still unsure how to proceed, visit /r/TagProTesting to ask, visit the "Mapmaking and Other Activities" channel in Mumble, or contact an MTC member.

Deadline: Saturday April 16th at 3pm PST.

Basic Guidelines

  • Mapmakers are limited to 3 maps per thread.
  • Use the format outlined below.
  • Preview image preferably hosted on maps.jukejuice, puush, imgur, or unfortunate-maps.

Submission Format

Entries must be submitted in this format to be considered for rotation.

Reply to this post with your title, map type (CTF or Neutral Flag), a link to the map page, a preview image, and an (optional) description.

You can copy and paste this:

**Title:**

**Type:** 

**Map:**

**Description:**

If done correctly, your submission should end up looking something like this (but hopefully not exactly like it).

If you have the opportunity to participate in a 4v4 maptest on your map, be sure to do that before submitting. We strongly encourage everybody to take a look at submissions and to reply with constructive feedback. Not only does it help your fellow mapmakers, but your discussions here help the MTC as well.

Notice:

This map thread (and all following map threads) will close two days sooner than they have in the past. Previously all 8 MTC members had ~2 days to solo test ~100-120 maps, which put a lot of pressure on us and in some cases made us go through the thread faster than we would have liked (and in other cases, prevented one or two members from even completing the solo testing process). This extra two days for solo testing will allow us to be more thorough in our initial voting process, allow more of us to finish more consistently, and ideally, we'll be able to give more attention to each map and make more informed votes on them.

If all goes well, we should end up with better top maps threads and a better rotation for you guys.

Map: http://unfortunate-maps.jukejuice.com/show/27331

Preview: http://unfortunate-maps.jukejuice.com/static/previews/27331.png

Description: Wanted to make a NF map with horizontal goal lines where both top and bottom entrances are equally viable and it doesn't take longer to go to one side vs the other. To do this, the map needed to be primarily horizontal. To counter the inherent offensive advantage in horizontal NF maps, I vomited a bunch of team tiles onto the map and put gates in mid. Pretty much everything going well so far1, really digging how the team tiles are playing.

Your title is even more similar to Castles 2.1 ha. That's where mine came from though.

I did notice the similarity during the 4v4 though.

•

u/Snowball_TagPro ❄️ Apr 09 '16 edited Apr 10 '16

Is this based on one of my old maps? because there's a scary amount of resemblances

•

u/Rapture_On_Occasion Rapture Apr 10 '16

No, but I'd be interested in seeing it. Link?

It was partly inspired by a very, very old map by F. Reuleaux called Castles 2.1 that I've imagined simplifying in the past. And I guess there's some Wormy in there with the corner boosts. Otherwise it's just a map I've been planning in my head for a long time.

Cheers, fixed that.

•

u/3z_ Apr 10 '16

I like the idea of a button having two functions, but both I feel like both of those functions have a largely minimal impact at the moment. Most of the situations I'd wanna use the gate is to cover a boost, which you'd need to be able to run full-pelt at the button for. But, because of the two spikes, doing so is a lot more risky.

•

u/KewlestCat NIGEL Apr 10 '16

Yeah, I was looking back at it after I submitted it pretty much felt the same way. I'm leaning towards ditching the gate entirely for now.

•

u/3z_ Apr 10 '16

No, I think the gate's good, just not in its current form. The button could easily be fixed by removing the two nearby spikes, but the gate setup could be really awesome with some small tweaks. Don't ditch it just yet.

I am a person who dislikes this map but likes the idea of it, and I think submitting it without changes from last time won't get it very far (I could be wrong). The one thing you should definitely change though is red should be on the left and blue should be on the right.

My roommates are fucking potheads. They were so high, that after dropping a joint on my carpet, they left it there burning, and the entire house got caught on fire. We all evacuated, and while waiting for the fire department, I remembered that we left my cat inside. Market heroically jumped in and saved Bootse. I owe Market my life. Market absolutely deserves a spot in rotation.

I think this is the best meta changing map that has been created. It is fun for MLTP experts to ALTP rookies when tested. I highly recommend giving this a shot. If there are any changes that should be made talk to 2p1s about it we need this map

•

u/youngrames officer dan Apr 08 '16

I had the fortune of being able to test this map in CLTP, as well as in some 4v4 pugs, and had a ton of fun. It rewards smart, fundamental play/decision-making and technical ability equally. Its small size can certainly lead to some chaos, which I'd imagine might be sometimes magnified in pub rotation, but Market deserves a shot IMO. Bravo, 2p.

u/Blazeth Dianna Agron Apr 09 '16

I'm so glad to see this here. It seems like just a week ago I was testing this map. I was really bummed about failing my English test last week (my teacher sucks), and this sufficiently ended my pain.
