CP Glacius

Glacius is set to be a 3 stage CP A/D map somewhere that contains snow.

My goal for this map is to keep it simple, clean and entertaining. Apart from that, i aim to end up with slightly less choke than in maps like dustbowl.

Looking forward to future versions of this! It sure does look very nice!

Gameday went fairly well. I will fix whatever i can and start working on the second stage sometimes soon

It's cool, but it's way too big- both in terms of size and complexity. It's very long, and red have so long to snipe and harry at blu that blu finds it very hard to put up full strength at the end.

I think difficulty is a little geared towards defense- that hill is kinda tricky at the second point. I might recycle that point into stage 2, if i were you. Alternatively, removing some or one of the good sentry positions at the end.

The door that leads out next to the second point, on the left from blu's perspective, is very small and i never was able to do much from it because i constantly got spammed away from it. Widening it, or perhaps moving it direct to the point could help. Remember on dustbowl blu have a nearly completely covered, largely one-way route almost direct to B.

Thank you for the feedback! - Very helpful stuff

I think i'll attempt to widen and angle the door you mention and i already killed the tiny house at the second point, so thats one less sentry spot.

As for the lenght of the map, i will try to hold on to it - maybe fiddle with the respawn times or something like that.
I kinda want to give teleporters the power they deserve.

stage1_a2 update!

No new screenies yet, as i am a lazy bastard.

So, last gameday revealed a lot less positive side of the first stage. It was too long, primarily, and the spawntimes got **** up for some reason.

I will try to cut it down, so the walktimes resembles those of dustbowl. I will also see if I can create some places for the teams to make nests in.
