We are in need of maps on the Siege server. The cycle we are in is seeming to get boring from what i herd and personally see. Does anybody have any thoughts on a map? Maybe you have thoughts but don't know how to map, or maybe you have saw something and thought that'd be cool to "siege".
Themes, concepts... anything really.

I'm willing to put in some work since it is summer, and i have more time.

I think kenneth made a post about this, with maps in to be added on the server... not sure they were though, but I do agree with you that new maps on the server would be great :)

i have this noobish idea please don't laugh at me xd

alright the map is DM-Morbias][ here is the layout of it :

my idea for this map is :
http://i57.tinypic.com/24zllx3.png

1- make a small hallway for the core and make a hut or a wall of glass to cover the core to make it impossible to anyone to shoot it from a distance
2- make 2 tunnels that connect the core hallway with middle arena (orbital style)
3- expand the area next to the core hallway and connect it with the 2 tunnels
3- mid is ready, no need to edit but you can change the textures if you want
4- make 2 rooms on both sides of the mid as nuke rooms

might sound like a dumb ass idea, but no harm of trying thou..

Agreed, a few new maps would be great!

A temporary solution could be the "map priority" setting or how it is called; where maps voted get only a half vote. We should put all the maps that are cycled through the most in that 0.5-category so that new maps or not so "popular" ones actually have a chance when voted for.

Sniper-Redeemer Heaven, duplicate the map and cut some of the tunnels out to simplify it. Put the two copies of the map facing each other with two connecting point between maps, with the core diamond in one of the huts.

Think this could be fun, it's a very popular map on other servers and with some chopping and changing would be excellent fun. Thank of all the sneaky teles, super boosters, jetpacks and transes! It could be the next bathrooms. This is a pic of the map if you're unfamiliar with it.

There was indeed a post made about this very issue by Kenneth, but Sam has been AFK for like a month ...(idk maybe?) There is already a thread that is sticked WITH maps that sam can upload to the server whenever he decides to come back.

EDIT: if somebody could make a smaller version of CTF-Vallyofgiants id love you forever kthxbye! (Like the good ole days when me Chronox FIDO would make a tele above the fog and then the other team is like WTF IS HAPPENING WHERE THEY COMEING FROM!) good times good times.

The maps here look nice (from above): Road-Kill v1.8 (http://www.deadcatz.com/road-kill-archives/road-kill-vol.1-8.html)

The zip files show a 404 error though...

I like those maps which have some foliage and details. Especially the egypt theme is very nice.

We eat (and kill) with our eyes first, no?

pm me when you have maps that you want uploaded would be good if whoever does suggest maps provides pictures of why it would make a good map and if possible get recognisation from others for it being a good map for siege etc

Well,

I have always wanted to make a map other then BT..
Siege is CTF rite? Instagib? or NW?

I suppose i could give it a shot.
You guys call the theme, i'll see if it inspires me or not :)

grtz irridium77

edit, okay so i read up a lil about the siege shizzle
with you fancy cores and such :)
i'll come and play tonight, see if i like it :)

small quality example maps? just to reverse engineer ;)
thx!

To build a siege map... i think it's a good idea to get a good knowledge about siege gameplay. ;)

The building the map isn't much difference. Yes they are CTF prefix, but in the game, it's normally normal weapons with some other fancy guns. ;)

Problem is node count good sir!..
doubling a big ass map liek that, and then start to carve some more into vertexes you didn't edit.. (to make the connections) could be disaster.

I much rather try this mapping style out on something small tbh..
I like the easy shizzle map of DM-morbias earlier in the thread.
I'll give it a go this week.. pinky swear.

btw i joined siege yesterday, didnt last a minute, didn't really get what do to either. LOL

[19:01] <@Cha> yeah
[19:02] <disturbed> there is a map with trees you hide in
[19:02] <disturbed> big red oaks
[19:02] <@Cha> i like hiding in trees
[19:04] <@Cha> with trees, have those ropes and ladder thing
[19:04] <@Cha> like u can run across from trees to tree high level and 3 different areas
