Map Details for Solar Freeze |
||
Solar Freeze is my map that I have made to combine three extremes - speed, teamwork, and scripting. This mission plays best at very high speeds. The flags are about 450m from each other. The flag has forcefields around it, and there is a Solar Panel on the flag building. To access the flag, you must blow up this Solar Panel. There are two catches to this, however. 1) Whenever you blow up the enemy Solar Panel, your Solar Panel is repaired. 2) As soon as you take the enemy flag, the enemy Solar Panel comes online, regardless of what was going on before. Therefore, you need a teammate to blow up the Solar Panel and let you out. Out of bounds sniping basically ruins this map. Therefore, you will die if you are outside the mission area for more than five seconds. A map that moves this fast would seem like there are no stations. However, this is not true. The stations are located in two buildings, completely surrounded by forcefields. However, there is only one way to use them. There is an objective in the center of this map. A huge wall seperates the two sides on this map, and there is a switch located on the wall. Only the side that controls this switch will be able to purchase anything from the stations. You won't need to know this much to play the map. Basically, you'll only need to remember three facts to win on a public server: 1) Capture the objective. 2) Blow up the enemy Solar Panel whenever it is up. 3) The battle is never over. The actions of key players may change the outcome of the battle. |

Grade: None » Submitted by Red Shifter on 12/01/01I still wish I knew what the general public thought about this map... Grade: None » Submitted by Iczer3 on 11/29/01hehe, one quick tip: always make sure that the HoFs have been cleared before attempting to cap. One would not want to get caught trapped inside the flag area with two pissed HoFs... Grade: None » Submitted by powdahound on 11/28/01Oh the way I understood it was that the forcefield just changed teams, and so it was always up. :\ Even though the hof couldn't shoot you couldn't cap, at all... lol Grade: None » Submitted by Star on 11/28/01That's why you would destroy the panel and wait on grabbing until you cleared the hof. Grade: None » Submitted by powdahound on 11/28/01Sounds like a hof or two would just make it impossible to cap, since you can't shoot them through the FF... Strange idea for a map. :) Grade: A+ » Submitted by Snow Storm on 11/28/01Very fun to play, and if there is just one professional layer on the team, the game doesn't get lopsided. (A good thing). Grade: None » Submitted by Iczer3 on 11/27/01wow, i know how they do the grading, but i'm kinda suprised that one of Nefilim's Classic maps isn't the MotW... but this map DEFINATELY deserves the honors as well. it just has that "mood" it puts you in to make you want to play it over and over and... Grade: None » Submitted by Red Shifter on 11/17/01Yeah, those flat things had to cover the holes. This is the most flat server-side terrain that I could find. If I had not covered the holes, I could not have made the level work, because both sides had to be exactly the same. Grade: None » Submitted by Star on 11/17/01From what I can tell, those flat things were put there to cover holes of some sort. Grade: None » Submitted by TseTse on 11/13/01This map does rock. What are those flat areas? I think there is an error of some sort... Grade: A+ » Submitted by Alundra on 11/13/01All I have to say is this looks SWEET! just through reading your description :) Grade: A » Submitted by SylockAssassin on 11/12/01like the concept, interesting design and he's right fps is great Grade: None » Submitted by Iczer3 on 11/12/01hmmmm, first self repairing gens from Bytor, now solar pannels that are completely repaired once you grab the enemy flag... yup, that one concept there will make sure that both teams use teamwork to get to the flags. nice looking map too, from the screenshots i can't see too many buildings so the fps should be pretty darn good too. |
