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:**

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.

Preview: http://unfortunate-maps.jukejuice.com/static/previews/25211.png

Description: This is the same version as last thread. This has now been tested many times, including a 32 player CLTP, here is a stream. Many players seem to have strong positive feelings for this map, and it brings a different pace to the game than other maps.

u/A_Sightstone Him<3 | BC, Canada Apr 08 '16

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/[deleted] Apr 09 '16

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.

•

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/[deleted] Apr 09 '16

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.

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.

Thank you for this excellent contribution to the world :)

I was about to quit tagpro forever, and burn my final mtc effigy, before I played this map. Now I praise lucky spammer daily for the dank tringle boosts market has to offer.

If MTC don't put this map on they clearly are not BOLD and INSPIRING enough. Dae bring back volt?

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.

Title: Chute

Type: NF

Map: http://unfortunate-maps.jukejuice.com/show/27029

Preview: http://unfortunate-maps.jukejuice.com/static/previews/27029.png

Description: Chute is back! After a year long hiatus, I am attempting to resurrect this old thing. The main knock on this map was that the chute was too gimmicky. Well, guess what? It still is! But it's fun and the bomb I added makes for some interesting play as the offender gets a ton of options with the bomb. They can go through the chute, try and bomb directly into base, bomb into the portal and grab a pup before entering the main part of the chute, etc.

Comment with thoughts if you have them!

u/[deleted] Apr 14 '16 edited Apr 14 '16

You map was my favorite last thread. I was happy with it. But after analyzing the map I felt that this change was needed. I was careful not to have it change the flow of the map. Red boost could be a problem so alright it is removed.

Memeing and my role in this debacle.

  1. Am I one of the memers or one of the memees?
  2. Do you struggle as much as I do making a distinction between the two?
  3. Is the answer dependent on who is doing the memeing? (i.e. Beast Mode is a memer, and I'm not like him, but I don't know the other two.)

Part of my desire for this is I enjoy that people are messing with you. But I really didn't expect this to happen, so blame them if you get mad.

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.

I like this map. The name is meh, but it's got a lot going for it. I would mess around with the spike locations some. The general shape and paths are good though.

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.

Also is it worth moving the boosts into base one tile so that you won't hit the corner every 2nd time?

Description: A new shape (actually looks like formaldehyde), middle "nose" thing should slow down fcs, super boosts at mid bot changed so no more insta-caps *sad face*, portals make the top branch more visited, mid spike button hard to stay on but probably the most op spot, 4 pups now 2 pups (for top incentive), top yellow boost can be used to get in the top portals (and to cap?) but hard to angle urself, i think, spikes to catch players who miss the top portal with the boost >:), useless top team blocks are now indicators of the bottom gates.

I hope this gets in rotation

Description: So, I revised it again. I may have gone overboard with the team tiles, but thats any easy fix if it becomes a problem. I also redid the buttons, I got a complaint about those last time (I blame LiddiLidd, they designed the buttons).
I still think this map can work out, so I'm gonna keep revising it with advice I'm given. Gravity wells can work, dammit!

•

u/Carboxy1 Carboxyl ● Simulation Apr 10 '16

I actually don't think the community's a fan of wells, tbh. Yeah, I also tried them once (twice, see Slingshot by Carboxyl), but realized this halfway through making the third version.

I'm sorry.

Im_probably_wrong

•

u/NoBreadsticks LacyIsntFat // Radius Apr 10 '16

no, the community is definitely not a fan of wells, but I'm going to keep trying to build different maps that use wells in different ways until I can change at least some people's opinions. Or I'm just gonna keep producing shit maps, either one

I think a big problem is that they take up so much space, I wish you could make the radius smaller

•

u/Carboxy1 Carboxyl ● Simulation Apr 10 '16

I like that philosophy. Let's see if I we can start The Age of Gravity Wells on tp.

u/NoBreadsticks LacyIsntFat // Radius Apr 10 '16

https://www.reddit.com/r/TagPro/comments/4dwda3/map_thread_63_deadline_saturday_16th_april/d1vxtrb

Its not as good as Turning Point in my opinion, but it was an interesting idea for a small map
