Ravine / Wintermelt Feedback

[Fixious]

Now that we basically have 2 new maps to play during PUGs, lets get some feedback on them.

 

[k e v i n]

Well as I had told ucan, I like the bases on Ravine. I just find that the side for routes are a bit weird, even to start a route seems a bit weird too.

 

[Fixious]

The Ravine flag stand / base is a bit barren, in my opinion. It could use a few items to spice things up and maybe help defense a bit, since it's so open.

Smoothing, and that giant tree......gotta uncheck that polySoup box and also on WinterMelt too, uncheck that box

 

[Ucantry2run]

Smoothing yes, tree isn't actually in the way of anything so it doesnt really matter. For both maps.

 

[Fixious]

What would be ideal is if only the main trunk of the tree had collision. That way you could pass through the trees without coming to an instant stop. Now if you really wanted to get fancy you could put a trigger in the leaves that simply slowed you down a bit when entering it. I think something like this exists for water.

I've tried that in the past and I could never do it....unless I wasn't doing it correctly

I don't think there's a trigger for that..... I've also tried to do this in the past, and I think it's set as default for the water to slow you down.

 

[Fixious]

I don't think there's a trigger for that.

 

[ProphetofPirates]

I think the top of the hills in middle on either side needs to be slanted somehow at top to allow you to go in a certain direction, either towards enemy base or friendly base.

You learn something new everyday......

Leave the team index at -1 so it affects both teams. I don't know why I changed it to 0. Habit, I guess.

 

[Ucantry2run]

kk the left side isnt booty anymore. Chasers and cappers should have a pretty easy time (also added boost pads).

 

[Poponfu]

I feel like maps should have a distinct mid that facilitates LO getting to enemy base and Chasers with multiple cutoff options but this..

 

[WildFire]

I agree, I think the mid needs to be reworked pretty heavily. Having easy llmama's / OD routes means that other forms of capping are less effective the majority of the time.

Every map has OD routes.. llama superhighways are even worse because even very sub par LO skiing can get it done like a champ. There are no hills to negotiate, no OD, nothing difficult at all and midfield picksups are very easy.

 

[Fixious]

nothing difficult at all and midfield picksups are very easy.

Unless you keep throwing the damn flag in front of a pillar...

[Poponfu]

those things come out of nowhere ! ;(

I'd suggest this but we all know that the dev's don't like uploading anything made from the community........
