[Defender]

Totally new base layout, easy to defend I think.
Random weather, each time the map loads you get clear day or snow day.
Bases vary close, flags located on upper deck.
Plenty of inventorys, on all levels..
Terrain area large like BladeRun, but the bases are vary close.

Try it out, let me know what you think!

Beautiful skybox,the bases could be the coolest damn thing I've seen so far along with the positioning of the flag stands. The bases need to be a little further apart imo. Other than that great stuff Defender!

Thanks,
Kinda had to put the bases in those positions because the center terrain area is mirrored, I ported it from a tribes2 custom map, credit included..
I also tried to adjust the terrain heightfield higher to make the hills larger, but it just kept making the terrain flat.
Overall it plays fairly nicely, I guess...

I misspelled artic day, should be arctic day...
Next version will be corrected...

Honestly, I'm not too big of a fan of large bases.
The reason is because I'd lag with those large of bases.
But other than that, I say it looks really good, but as loc said, the bases are too close.

The bases are almost the same distance as frostbite.
When firing a mortar from the vary top of the base, I was only able to reach halfway cross to the opposite base.

The distance between bases might be fine, but the single bowl in between looks like it would make f2b and b2f grabs too easy (see forgotten).

I don't see that as an issue.
The flag is obstructed by the front of the base, its positioned for side grabs.
