Well?  What do you think?  

Tell us what you liked, disliked, best map bits, did they play OK on your spec PC? etc.  Go on, spill the beans

I had a great time on this map tonight, but then I had something like a 19-2 score at one point.  Unfortunately, good score though it was, it was a bit too DM for me - the map didn't play as well as I had hoped.  I'll reserve judgement on it until I've played it a few more times this week, but initial signs were not brilliant for me.

Potential to be a VERY 1 sided map if more than half the T's attempt to camp the helicopter place.

Yep it's a turkey shoot for the T's. I tried going on the prowl and got shot up a fair bit, so stuck with camping the chopper.

An escape map with one escape point that doubles as the T spawn is a recipe for campy distaster. It's early in the week yet but I don't think this ones going to work.

I enjoyed this map, I played both sides and its definately a lot harder for the cts, so a bias towards them would have to be played I think. Also some careful thinking of the boundries as there are too many places for the Ts to sit and pick off the cts at leisure at the moment.

I thought it was brilliant! I especially like the bit where I walked round a corner, any corner, and got whacked by TeaLeaf! Bring it on!

this is a nice map for a change, and a bit of a laugh, especially if u have pld hunted in tfc

[smilodon]

It was a laugh and a change from the norm, but what will we think in a months time. Unless there are some radical map boundaries everything is going to happen around the helcopter pad and along the main route to the pad. As a new map it was fun, I just don't think there's much long play value and certainly limited PCS play

" CT's fight T's in passage. If CT's win they get sniped on Pad. If VIP can rush to pad CT's win"

[Stryker]

if its different enough maybe its worth it for the novalty factor?  I know I wish we had the rats maps again :-)

that reminds me, we ought to arrange a rats map weekend again, perhaps on baldric?

[FatBob]

i remember this map from halflife its the 1 with the spaceship at the start of the level !. not imho a great pcs map very very 1 sided  "lets all camp the copter, you cover ramp, you cover ikkle door".....voila !
generally i'm not a fan of VIP maps, they need to be a bit spesh and i find this 1 a bit ordinary.
here endeth the 2p's worth

Fist time Iv'e played this map (CT) and we only managed to get the VP out twice I think that just about sums it up. 3 or 4 T's around the Helo pad more or less ends it unless u have sufficient CT's to do a charge of the Light Brigade at the end to cover the VP's escape.

The above post is mine forgot I had logged out to go to lunch (warm milk & rusks) and hadn't finished posting from last night.  :stupid:

Campers heaven !!

only played as t but still not a fan, restricted on weapons and like fb said cover the 2 area's and thats about your lot .........could potentially become a 2 v 10 turkey shoot map  

thumbs down

I agree

I agree

The only real fun comes when T's elect to take the fight to the CT's along the main passage. If they camp the pad, keep their heads down until the CT's break for the pad and are reasonably quick and accurate when firing, the CT's don't stand a chance.
I fear this map just doesn't suit PCS play. In fact a rule deamnding that T's leave the pad and go hunting CT's, ala' deathmath mode, would probably improve the game play !
