My buddy is about finished making a friggin awesome jail map. It's based on the real Leoben jail in Austria that's extremely luxurious. It has a lot of new games, including dodge ball, T Basketball, New kinds of mazes, and It even has a deathrun!
Talk to PhaseXero about it. He's currently trying to talk to RougeSniper about putting the map into our jail server.
Shhhhhhhhhhhh, I've been putting the "final version" out for the last 3 weeks. Let's just say I have a huge bug infestation and every playtest I feel like I get further away from releasing it =(
I'll quickly comment on my map, frazar ideas and I guess ideas I've pondered:
1)
Laser Tag: Hmmmm I was considering using an empty "tag pistol" with an attached object to figure out who's "it". I want to know how laser tag works though
2)
Dodgeball: I used this in my map, just a cannon with a push feature, Easy and Hard modes to kill off people.
3)
New Climb: Hmmmm, maybe if you have climbs that involve different elements, moving elements, things like that to jazz things up. I used a "water ladder" on my map which works pretty well.
4)
Jump Rope: Laser Rope with Hurt Trigger - Hard and Fast Speeds. Attached to a rotating pillar. It works pretty well, should be a pretty good game for Ts to play.
5)
"What should I do wheel": Someone mentioned this in the thread, I was considering putting it in. I guess I completely forgot about it. You could probably set it to output a console message tell people what happens.
6) One idea I had was to create a couple rooms where the goal is to destroy a randomly spawning object in your room faster than the other rooms. If you destroy your object first it kills all the other rooms. Should be easy to setup and much better than "4 corners" or any random game which kills you.
7)
ST Pistols: I put these in my map. It's basically a deagle with a pumpkin and a trail to mark Ts who get ST since I got tired of being killed while on ST. Hopefully it works if the CTs don't steal them all.
8)
Deathrun: Deathrun but since it's jail the Ts can jump over and knife the CTs if they aren't paying attention. It works pretty well and I feel it's way better than playing trivia at the beginning to kill people off.
I'm done so I will shamelessly promote my map now. It's in the final playtesting and I need people to run a full 20 man server. If you are interested add "PhaseXero" to your steam friends list.
Frazarman: I am quite interested in your "intelligence challenges" if you can elaborate on those ideas you might produce a ton of new ideas (I'll take all the credit of course if I put it in my map
)
