A Football Pitch?!

Post by Jonny C »

*** EDIT ***
Ok, I've repaired ALL problems with the map and its been fully tested. There shouldn't be any more problems and we should all enjoy this new addition to the game. If you DO find any more problems, just sling it into this thread and i'll do my best to fix it.

The new version is called A_Football_Pitch.v2.1.sd7 and is available at these links:

http://www.fileuniverse.com (look in the public dump folder...)

http://www.megapyxel.ath.cx/A_Football_Field.v2.1.sd7

*** END OF EDIT ***

Yeh! Thats the name of my new map! :p

Here are some in-game shots...

Its not just a novelty, Its also a great map for 2v2, 3v3, 4v4. There is a huge playing field in the middle for PeeWee battles and there are 2 metal platforms at each end of the pitch for building your porkypine bases and launching artillery from :p. Its excelent for those base building sessions :). (there are ramps behind the goals to get onto the platforms)

Download it off my home server and give it a try at:

*** OLD LINKS REMOVED ***

(5.2 megs)
Map Size: 8 x 14
Texture Size (x512): 4096 x 7168

Don't forget to let me know what ya think!!! :p

If it downloads at around 15k/s keep at it, it's just cos i'm hosting it on my pc at home and thats got a max upload of 30k/s and other people might be downloading it off me at the same time.

Oh, I get it, it's a SOCCER field. Me and my American-ness got me confused for a minute.

Looks great. I'll give it a try.

you've just made a speedmetal map with with a diffrent texture.... 20+ metal per mex with no extraction radius is just plain stupid. along with only a single choke point at either end.... you should spread the metal out, and lower it to normal levels. oh and change hte wind from a constant 25..

Hes right. I just palyed it. Awfull. If the metal was properly spread out, And it wasn't speedmetal, It might be good.

+10 for the attempt.


-666 for speedmetal.

Oh, I can win in Soccer/Football... our stoned over-paid team can't.

The texture is nice, the gameplay is bad. Try putting strategic or symbolic metal spots in, or something. Some at the corners, some at the goal posts, some for the penalty box...
