Alpha 3 released.

*Back to 10 seconds caps for a single non-scout
*Overall reduced and tweaked health and ammo placement
*Layout changes around C :
-1 of the 3 giant tank things has been removed on each side, it's now possible to reach the top of the containers without returning to B or sticket jumping.
-The small hideout on either side have been made a little closer to the center of the action.
-The platforms that let you get out of the water have also been made closer to the center.
*Layout changes around A :
-There's a small building on the roof, separating the BLU and RED sides. I hope it makes a decent sentry emplacement.
-The open containers on the tracks have been closed off, no one seemed to go inside and it looked wrong anyway.
*Text fixes as suggested by ABS.
*Removed the announcer's... announcements, they get extremely repetitive after a while due to the points often changing hands. We'll see if it was a bad idea.
*The buzzer warnings at 25, 50, 75 and 90% are still there but will only buzz once for he first three and three times for the last one. Hopefully it makes them less annoying.

Dang ! I just saw that. You need to stop ninja posting ! :lol:

Ok I'll watch these, but a3 was already pretty much done when you posted anyway. Thank you for all.

Oh and first link is broken but I managed to find the file anyway.

Gameday bump.

Although I always re-watch the demos after the gameday, I don't always get everything you people say over the mic, so indulge me, but if you could "voice" your opinions by writing it down here, it would help me. Thanks.

I noted that some people dislike the holograms... but, well, they're not mine and I like them. If Artesia releases a smaller-scaled version I may use them instead.
I double-checked and the materials and the models were Pakratted in the bsp, I believe I heard people complain about missing something early in the game...
I also double-checked the respawn timers and they are set correctly, the losing team gets shorter spawn wave times, and a chance to make a comeback. But of course, individual spawn times are always a bit random.

There's also a short text supposed to brief you about the map objectives but somehow it doesn't display on the TF2M or CC servers, although it works fine in local. I'll try something else next time.
