Map Details for Gelatinus Prime |
||
Gelatinus Prime is a planet known for it's unuseual water properties. The first map to take place on this planet was Ceremony. A map designed for ceremony and promotions, not game play. After a great amount of popularity, I decided to make another full sized CTF map for Gelatinus Prime, and this is it. This is a server side map, so only Server Admins need to install it. |

Grade: A+ » Submitted by Ronin on 08/13/03this is such a great map try driving a gravbike into it on the third bounce it whent flying up at 3000kph i jump out on my mpb when it bounces and it landed on land 3 times untill it hit me ... what woul be good it to use the lake demise and change the water to bounce on cos it was so annoying when i sky dived at 3000m and droped into the water but i whent so fast that i hit the bottem Grade: None » Submitted by Lexor on 07/29/02LOL !! Sure, it does encourage players to goof around, but at the core is actually a solid CTF map. Except for the strong inexplicable urge to bounce Jerichos, the bouncy water can be very strategic. Grade: A+ » Submitted by w00t on 11/09/01I like these ppl that think all maps should be 100\% team oriented and stupid crap like that. Some maps are made for fun, and if I'm not mistaken tribes 2 is called a game right? Grade: A+ » Submitted by Lexor on 10/26/01I think this map is great fun. All bouncing aside, the map is always a great battle, especially on Shifter. Well done. Grade: A » Submitted by Joseph Dredd on 09/22/01This is an awesome map, that is if you want to have fun.This is not an extreme battle-map.You can do some cool tricks too:One of the coolest is driving an MBP into the water, you won't wanna stop doing it.......... Grade: C+ » Submitted by Cheesy_Poof_Man on 09/11/01I really don't like this map that much. Bouncy water is fun, if you have eyecandy to back it up and make it a pure fun, no gameplay map. But, the terrain is rather dull, and the water is really pointless. Make the water useful in ski routes, and I'll like it better. It seems people like this map just for the trapoline effect. Grade: B- » Submitted by TseTse on 09/08/01I have to agree with the naysayers. This is "fun," and we could make all maps bouncy... *sigh* The map design is itself decent, and decent enough to keep it somewhat interesting. But in terms of bouncy water which actually ADDS something to a map, I would refer folks to the Siege map called Neptune (which i like a LOT more, and still only gave a B ). This map is definately worth checking out, but it needs to harness the bouncy water in terms of actual gameplay. Grade: A+ » Submitted by -NTDF-Archer on 09/08/01I Love this map!! It is so much fun.. Here is a link to a movie someone made about this map. You must see it!! Copy and paste the below link in to a brouser window.. http://www.siegedom.net/gelprime.mpeg Grade: A+ » Submitted by nobody on 08/28/01OMG L33t!!! Its fun to play on the 'Gelatin'!!! I want more maps like this Grade: B+ » Submitted by Slamscape on 08/28/01Its a gimmick map, sure its fun, but there is no real chance at gameplay Grade: A+ » Submitted by Deadly Fury on 08/20/01What can I say? I love this map! The water is just hilarious, especially when you land a double backflip in a Jericho. Grade: A- » Submitted by KryandArturo on 08/10/01Excellent map. I like the flag positioning and of course... the water. I don't think I need to say how fun it is to drive MPBs in that map ;). It's going on my server. Grade: B- » Submitted by powdahound on 08/08/01I finally got around to downloading this crazy thing... It's neat to play with but the gameplay is horrible. I joined a server with it and it's much more of a fun map than anything. Don't need any skill on this map. :| Grade: A+ » Submitted by Deathboy9000 on 08/06/01THE best map ive ever played! in the end on a server we gave up trying to play it proplerly and just had masses of fun! we used the two sides of the bases a places to park our shrikes and had bouncy fights and jericho stunt games! also theres a LOAD of room for me to fly and even a shrike underwater and other suprises! DOWNLOAD now and play it offline on your own as well! Grade: A+ » Submitted by Hummer6606 on 07/27/01One of the most original maps I've seen in a long time :P And of course, it's no secret that it's fun as hell... I have yet to play it with other people, but even playing it alone is great! Never thought I'd see a 4 digit speed in a Wildcat, let alone a Beowulf or MPB. :P Good job! Grade: A+ » Submitted by Eagle 13 on 07/22/01I LOVE THIS MAP! On every server ive played on the players throw away there weapons and just have fun!! The best part about this map is the ability to bounce an MPB 30 feet in the air and do a 40 times spin! I would recomend this map above all others. Grade: A » Submitted by [BD]Viper001 on 07/19/01Love this map I have it on my custom maps rotation. Always thows people when they bounce off the water! PPL always vote to extend the time limits! Grade: A+ » Submitted by S=A Papa Fatcheeks on 07/12/01This is GOOD! It borrows things from a couple of your other maps, Not just Ceremony. Cermony gave this map its hidden little sunken toweres destroyed vehicles and corpses under the galatin water and of course the gelatin water! Purple Haze gave it the fairly simple tower bases. Worth the download! Grade: A » Submitted by CeNTuRY on 07/11/01a really good map, that make every pilot-jumper-capper happy. the bouncing effect is fun, like in the map Ceremony (a lil bit laggy). Definitely in my TOP-5 maps on my server. Grade: A » Submitted by Axion on 07/10/01You ever seen a flying MPB? You will! Lots of fun and laughs! Grade: A » Submitted by GIMPbeowulf on 07/10/01After playing it, I must say wow! Ceremony was a different kind of capture the flag in that it was basicly just stalemate busting... it didn't give a lot of intertainment though (I know it wasn't intended to). Now something good has been done with the water experiment and it makes for one very interesting map. Flag running is the most changed... the cappers can bounce and be hard to hit, but low level skiing will be faster... it's a tough decision. At first I looked at the height of the flag tower and said "yeah, right!" but then I remembered that this isn't the usual map... jellow is our friend. :) This definatly seems like one that will have plenty of stale-mates, and tracking down someone that doesn't want to be killed will be vurra hard. I expect to see large amounts of missiles flying on this one... probably the only way to get good cappers if they get away with the flag. Next time I play I think I'll change the turret to missile. As for the sentry turret, it will get a shot in, but if it hits you more than twice you did something wrong. ;) Grade: A+ » Submitted by })r.Pepper on 07/10/01I've played on this map a lot and this is a top notch map. While I havent noticed any problems it could have a few. This map is played on many servers as well, which shows this map is truely a great map. Grade: None » Submitted by GIMPbeowulf on 07/09/01I have yet to play this one, so I didn't give it a grade. I must say, though, the terrain and base concepts look absolutelly awesome, and bouncing will keep it from getting slow like a lot of water maps tend to. When I get home, I'll DL this lil bugger and take it for a test drive. :) Grade: A+ » Submitted by Glazed mcguffin on 07/09/01This map is excellent. Very balanced with a fun element. Nothing provides more entertainment than letting the flag drop onto the water and laugh as the enemy tries to catch it. I hope to see a lot more servers running this, I know it's in my permanent lineup. Grade: A » Submitted by ingolifs on 07/04/01Great map! the wildcat is kinda fun, and can actually be used by a skilled pilot, just make sure you don't hit the water twice while in it. you have a 60\% chance of hitting something hard. one gripe: near the inferno vehicle pad, i noticed a destroyed shrike and a dead guy on the floor of the water/jello. how did they get there? Grade: A+ » Submitted by KillerSilverware on 07/03/01This map is just plain sweet! I love bouncing around and having fun with the vehicles after playing all day. although I havent played it competively yet I think it would be fun. Grade: A+ » Submitted by blut-dms- on 06/30/01hahahahah thats all i have to say, i was right this map does own dude. that mpb ---- is funny as hell. u can do backflips with it haha ; Grade: A » Submitted by Left on 06/28/01This rating is based sheerly on one single aspect of this map which probably no one thinks about: You can do tricks with the MPB. Specifically, it will bounce about four or five times across the water before it explodes on contact (normally MPBs explode immediately upon contacting water, but up until the 4th/5th bounce it doesn't get below the surface as far as the destruction code is concerned, apparently). Plus, it's so heavily shielded that it basically survives anything as long as it lands on its wheels, not its roof... I have personally seen a fellow clanmember do all kinds of crazy maneuvers in an MPB on this map *AND LAND THEM*. Screen shots simply do not do this justice. You have to *SEE* someone in a Jericho tumbling through the air AND LANDING in order to appreciate this freaky aspect of Tribes 2 physics. Haven't played the map "straight" with a large number of people yet but I'll still keep it in rotation for fun if nothing else! Grade: B » Submitted by Star on 06/26/01The AA turret on the objective is well picked since the majority of the "o" people will be bouncing across the map. The flags are open, yet you have to work to get to them. The sentry turret near the flag is a nasty thing. The spread out layout of the base is nice. I suppose I'll mention my fateful suicide shrike dive at the water, bouncy water is fun, tee-hee...ahem. |

When you kill somebody it is funny to watch their body bounce across the water! Keep up the jello worlds!
