Capture the Flag Other Clear Client Side Custom Textures

This map takes place on an alien moon where the gravity is about 85\% that of Earth. That having been said, use this gravity to your advantage on this lunar based map.

C to remain indifferent. I forgot to mention a few things: the flag is easily accessed by destroying it's forcefield gen (the solar panel), but only a skilled capper will be able to get in and out of the turret fire that's powered by the main base gens. The increased gravity also makes invading via the air or hovering much easier, so I suggest mounting on missile barrels to the turrets.
Also, you may have noticed it says "Day" time for this map. Although the sky is starry, this IS daytime on the moon. =P

This map rocks. The hieghtfield and the eXtra detail for the terrain is totally lunar realistic! The gravity helps out, although I am not so sure the Wildcat is the best lunar cycle ;), I think with practice any vehicle could become a force here. It is easy to get lost in the shadows, I sure wish my armour had a flash light, but this isn't the first map to make me wish that. Outside the shadow's the map is lite quite nicely. I did anoy me to not have a way point of the crater base switch, but it was easy to find with the PDA. I say "DOWNLOAD THIS MAP!!!"

This map is really cool. I enjoyed the capturable objective near the center, as well as having to destroy the solar panel in order to grab the flag. Also, the lowered gravity is just plain fun, and the custom textures add in something new from the average map.

I would have put A+++ but they did not have that. V5 this is my favorite map of yours I love the Gravity it does make a difference when dueling.
Oh yeah and remember that map I was gonna make and I told you about. I want you to make it because (1) I suck at making maps,and (2) If I tried making it all screwed up and
s|-|it so I really want you make it. just say in the brackets when the game loads up thanks to Oryan. Good map. I also like the slush fields good map!!!!!!!!!!!

This is simply one of the best maps out there. The textures add to something thats already great. I love the objective how its set up. The gravity is supier to most mappers. His idea of a map that takes place in space is great. He though the map though fully. Best of all he didn't over work it! THIS IS A MUST DOWNLOAD TO ALL!

WOW! I love this map. V5, you did a great job on this one. The textures are great and the terrain is beautiful (and realistic!). The edges of some of the craters are a little too jagged, but it doesn't hurt gameplay any.
I love how you can chose to either grab the flag through turret fire or destroy the gens in the floating base. The gravity is neat, too, how did you do that?
Anyway, my only real complaint is that when you get high in the air you see this strange layer of very ugly clouds on the horizon. But that only appeared after the patch, so I guess it's something crazy old Dynamix did.

The terrain and terrain textures on this map are so unique and fitting to the theme that this is the most inspiring custom map I've seen to date.

There are several terrain and object placement errors, namely the terrain around the Storm Flag Tower and the bridge by the Craters.

I thought that the bases and objects used were excellent and simple, but that space within those objects could have been used more efficiently/intuitively.

These are hardly glaring faults considering the successes of this map.

Excellent job v5. I hope you take the time to make this map perfect on the detail level and push it up to that "A+" range for tougher critics like myself.

Wow I really can't say enough about the greatness of this map. The custom textures are to put it simply beautiful. The gravity is soooooooooooooooo cool, it makes walking a simple joy......This map is 1337 download is now

This map is so cool, the custom textures and bases fit the map so well. The giant planet in the sky is just breathtaking, simply gorgeus I can't get over how greak this map is. Every server should download this map because it is far too hard to find this map online. BTW the gravity is a great touch, and my favorite part of the map is the fact that the turret gens are different then the forcefield gens. Great job VP keep up the good work I look forward to see what you can do in the future.

While I've never actually played this map with other people, I think this map is a great map. It is a unique map with an excellent design. Also, when saying something, but not wanting a grade, just dont put one!

Several updates to Stardust:
The control switch tower now has a waypoint for those of you that had trouble finding it.
The control switch will no longer display the message "Your name has claimed 0 for Inferno/Storm". Instead 0 will be replaced with "The Craters".
The massive hole surrounding the Storm flagbase has been remov-ED.
I hope you all enjoy the updates.
(oh, and Dr. Pepper....when I posted that comment way back when, the "None" rating was not yet available. I didn't want to look biased towards my own map so I had to give it an indifferent grade).

I like the map a lot, I really do, but I don't think the textures are worth a required DL. :/ If the textures are just plain awesome, yeah, but on this one I think the included would have been better (I know it would have taken away image, but at least it would be played then). I also think the huge hovering base and the flip switch building are kindof unnecesaraly extravagant, but to each his own.

TseTse, that was before we had the option of posting comments under the grade "none". I didn't want to look full of myself, did I?

This is by far , the shittiest map i have ever played. You fall into nothingness all over the place. No bot support come ON! What is going on with all these reviews, i admit nice texture but thats all you got goin here. That took it up to a D.

This map kicks total ASS! I dont see why Jo Mama hates it, maybe because hes a crappy player and need bots, but this map does not need bots they are to stupid anyways. The textures the selection of items, its GREAT i think he should get a A+

Excuse me Jo' Mama, I don't see you making any maps.
How is this by far the "shittiest map you've ever seen"? The only thing you said in your support that's even valid is lack of bots.
I'm wondering if you even played the map - for one, I don't know what you mean by "falling into nothingness", but I assume you mean holes in the terrain. If this is so, the only ones i've had reported were by the inferno and storm flag bases. And those were fixed long ago. Weeks before this comment of yours was posted.
As for lack of bot support - do you realize how BAD bots are at jetpacking and driving vehicles? Do you have any idea how stupidly they would react to a map with low gravity that depends heavily on jetting, driving vehicles, and multiple-step processes to grab the flag?

Well if you have real issues with the map, please post them, because as I see it now you're just a llama, was mad I was getting so many reviews, and decided to kick me down a bit.

Not bad map, interesting use of gravity and textures..But for some reason i just didn't like the feel of the map but the work put into it brought the mark up to a C+
