Hey Everyone!
I have just thrown out a beta 2 version of my map, sniper den.
http://www.fpsbanana.com/maps/64259
Be sure to test it out for me, and give me some feedback! (feedback on FPSbanana would probably be better, because of their structured feedback and their rating system).
So, a little tour of the map.
This is your first look at the map. You can see a large tower (fun to jump off of as a scout) as well as a sort of "thrown together" tower, made out of sheet metal. The person who built it obviously isn't a very good architect, because all of the various pieces of sheet metal are at different heights. Sigh. However, this gives good opportunities to the snipers, as there are many different places to shoot from and many places to take cover.
This is a view from behind that metal tower. Notice the spaces in the sheet metal at the bottom?
This is the bottom level, or the tunnels, of the tall tower. This stairway in the picture goes up to some floor level windows, and the pathway to your right goes to the spawn room, and a bunker. the bunker is built right into a cliffside, and it has a decent view of the middle section of the tower and the metal tower. Also, playtesting as so far revealed that not many people go down there... so you can kill people unmolested (until they realize where it's coming from)
Finally, a shot of the other side of the map, the above ground bunker (which I called the "outpost" on FPSB). This place has three extremely large windows in it, which you can actually jump in and out of. It has three large barriers erected behind the windows, so you can jump past them in relative safety. There is a dark outdoors area as well, which tends to be great for sniping due to the low light levels. The roof is also covered with a variety of metal barriers. There is also a large health/ammo pack up there, but it is entirely exposed. Running to get health might not be the best idea.
So there it is, ladies and germs! test it out for me, and tell me what you think!
