Map Details for Skiarch

This is my first map and it took me a week to do it. There is lava everywhere on the map. Each base have a giant forcefield but it can disapear if you destroy the forcefield generator on the top of the enemy base.

ACK! The concept is good, but this is just WAYYYYYYY overdone. Was it really neccesary to have those bridges and bases EVERYWHERE? And those giant, lag-festing forcefields? I was seriously going 10fps with a p3 866mhz and 256 mb ram... For a first map it's pretty good, but when people start out I think they have a tendency to be over-ambitious. Key example: Skiarch.

Skiarch is a very ambitious undertaking for a first try at mapping. Dont let the name fool you though..There wont be any skiing on this map! :) In fact to get anywhere you'll have to be pretty good with your jets. The force fields probably will play havoc with your fps. And luckily any flag dropped in the lava will return to the stand automatically after a while, otherwise you could never get them back..LOL. But there is a very good point to the map. The middle switch area is VERY useful (unlike most maps) if your team controls it along with it's inv. stations you have a good chance of holding the other team to their base permanently. Making it very useful to control as there are only two ways for the other team to leave the base and no vehicle station to permit any other avenue of exit. Unfortunately though the map is still very player-UNfreindly everywhere else. The importance of the switch area really shines above everything else and I hope that the creator of skiarch continues to use these sort of tactical elements in his maps to come.

Finnaly some sky base action! Unfortunetly it's not very well layed out. And those HUGE mofo'ing force fields just screw up your view and add to the lag factor. A very choppy map, but can still be fun anyways.
