Apparently TF2Maps.net is holding a mapping contest (I'm severely out of the loop so you may know this already) but there is a download link for a 16 map pack of the contest entries. The contest focuses on Payload Race (A game-mode I REALLY like but rarely get a chance to play) and Attack/Defend CTF maps. Be sure to check these maps out, I would actually like to see them on eGO servers sometime in the future. The map pack comes in at around 268MB so be sure to have the time and HD space available.

There is also a training map available to download. There's a swanky video linked on the blog that shows you all the spiffy features of this neat little map. If you want to practice your TF2 skills you might want to take a look at it.

Hurray hope good CTF A/D comes out of

EDIT: And two way A/D CTF (single flag)

I do hope that A/D CTF comes back. I loved that from Team Fortress 1.

 

[TomBombadil]

Wow that training map is truly amazing.

 

[Black cat]

I played four of the maps, from !SomethingNight" onwards, adn can say that all of these maps are good. The CTF control point map I tried was also pretty impressive.

It's been goin on for like 5 months... yeah. I've got plr_nightfall down to win, or maybe ctf_vector I dunno. They're my faves.

 

[Deadly Bunny]

I made a map once

And by made I mean got the basic architecture but barely put in any textures or props

 

[Jawneh]

I think it would probably be a sweet idea for our servers if we got that package, and put all those PL maps on a rotation on one and CTF ones on another. Then after couple months we can see if any of them attracts enough attention to become a 24/7 map even.

Or well... If we could still affect it. xP
