[poll] sunset town intel windows??

[shake_n_bake]

hey guys sunset town is back i guess (im assuming its gona stay on for a while(hopefully)) anywho, its running on v9 right now, and me and nighthawk are working on a final version that will help out ALOT with the lag, and fix some minor glitches.

so in the process of fixing those glitches, i remember hearing people complaining about it was to easy to cap the intel and jump out the window, SO i want to know what you guys think, should i put in glass like this in this pic i made? or just leave as is?

blue is glass, red is open window, and green is the one way door.

Having no glass means you have to have a more solid defense....makes you think more. Keep it the way it is.

 

[!Woodstock!]

I would only use glass in the window right by the intel. In your drawing, the far left window. Leave all the others open.

Herm's got a good point, but it seems to me it's already fairly easy to break through a defense in the intel room. No glass would probably eliminate any point in engies trying to build in that room at all. On the pro side, players would have to be even more active. On the con side, the map is pretty well balanced as it is, and engies would have a reduced roll, whereas now the need for each class is pretty strong.

Glass closest to the Intel is the best.... actually even the closest 2 windows.

Really will make it fun to get out of there.

In v9 there is already glass in the window closest to the intel. I assume when you say "no glass" you mean no additional glass? Or do you mean to take the glass out of that last window? I think I'm ok with the way it is right now. If you close off more windows, that's going to make things a lot harder for snipers. Hmm... I wonder what it would be like having balconies outside the intel-room windows. If you want to hear more of my thoughts on the map, I left a review on fpsbanan a couple weeks ago. Overall I'm pretty happy with how it is now except for the lowered fps when going outside. Unfortunately I think this server will probably become the Goldrush server once the patch comes out. I wish we could keep it around permanently.

ya, no additional glass, and thanks crash, ive been watching ur suggestions but im afraid to change anything >.<

 

[RESPAWN]

Yeah, I really think that the only changes that need to be made would just be optimization for higher FPS outside. I drop down to about 17 - 25 when I go outside. Otherwise, I think the map is very well balanced. I'm going to miss it when Goldrush comes out.

I like the map the way it is

 

[Medichunter]

Same as dark i like the map the way it is.( nice job on it)

It's good the way it is!! More glass would make it pretty pointless to be a sniper as mentioned above. Keeps engies on their toes having to watch the balcony across the courtyard instead of just beating on their sentries all day! !lol
