Attention Deficit V3

[Furious D 18]

This map only works with the Progression gametype.

PLEASE NOTE THAT THERE IS NOW A VERSION 3 WHICH ADDRESSES THE SPAWN PROBLEM

This map was inspired by Conquest, although it plays a little differently. Like in Conquest, both teams rush the center for control of the territories. But in this map, the territories lock after capture, and are only available one by one. Attention Deficit uses timed map events to keep players focused on one territory at a time.

Players start in room one. They have one minute to fight over this territory before they are allowed to advance. Buried shield doors mark the area of the territory. Grav lifts behind shield doors keep players in this room. If the territory is captured before players are allowed to advance, they can still fight for control of the power weapons.





After one minute has passed, players start spawning in room two. This area is much larger, and contains more powerful weapons and grenades. Players can still go back into room one to capture the territory if it is still contested.



After another minute has passed, players start spawning in room three. This room contains the final territory. Like before, players can backtrack to capture the earlier territories. Players still in room two or room one can use the stairs that spawn so that they can reach the third room.



The Progression gametype consists of three rounds of three minutes each. It is a Land Grab variant with 20 second capture times. Players start with an SMG and no grenades. Respawn times are set to 5 seconds, with advanced respawn settings of invulnerability and good camo for one second after spawning. This is to offset spawn camping.

This map utilizes timed object spawns to control where players can go. For example, players start the game in a room where the exits are blocked by grav lifts behind shield doors. When it's time, fusion coils drop on the grav lifts and set off an explosion, destroying the grav lifts and allowing players to walk through the shield doors.



Also, there are areas where respawn points are blocked by objects until they are needed. Barrels, fusion coils, and pallets are placed on top of the respawn points, and are destroyed by falling fusion coils when it is the right time. That opens up the respawn points to allow players to spawn there. Then when players are supposed to progress past the area, other objects spawn on top of the respawn points to block them again.







This map can support anywhere from 1v1 to 6v6. But the sweet spot is 3v3 or 4v4.

Furious and his goddam creativity. Shield door territory cap areas, changing respawns. your ridiculous. I have yet to play this but hope too soon. Glad to see your back.

[CostlyAxis]

Very nice use of timed elements, and the map looks well made. You've got a definite download from me.

[Asper49]

Very nice.

Glad to see creativity still exists around here, I was starting to get worried...
I'll be looking forward to playing this after I get some sleep.

Edit: It like a mix between conquest, and the stage spawn method! [/love]

Thanks guys. It is supposed to play a lot like Conquest: some minor strategy, but mostly running and gunning. I've only done one test game, so please let me know if there are any issues with the spawning system. I worked pretty hard to perfect it, but you never know. And I'll be sure to pop in and share new pics from any games I play on it.

EDIT: Oh yeah, here's one for you. Cosmic Rick hates warthogs with a passion. He will shoot at them even when his teammate Kapura is right in front of him. Shameful.



By the way, the warthog has been replaced with a ghost in the final version. It's too difficult to get two people in a warthog in a game like this. They all just want to rush the territory. A ghost works better.

Furious still makes maps, omg forgegasm. Sounds a little confusing, but looks like it would be a lot of fun once you got the hang of it. Can't wait to get a decent party and check it out.

I realize that, but I worked pretty hard to make the system work on its own. If you are alive when the next territory becomes available, you need to move towards it. Otherwise, you'll simply spawn in the next area. I wanted to make it easy to "pick up and play", just like Conquest.

But thanks for the kind words. I hope you enjoy it.

If I wasn't so tired right now then I would be typing up a rant. I'll get back to you on why exactly that way of thinking is killing forge.

-rep'd.

Why?!?

Read the reply to the PM you sent me.

[Hotpokkaminny]

I am glad that there is little to no geomerging, too many people think it is necessary.

Onto the map, all looks good, except one thing, could a person throw a well placed grenade at those barrel spawns from the first room?
