Arrow 12/27/2021 1:57 AM

Peo 12/27/2021 2:02 AM

what?

Peo 12/27/2021 2:02 AM

u mean?

Arrow 12/27/2021 2:10 AM

i can see just for this, that u took inspiration from ddmax server, i mean just simple drags, gores here and there etc..

Arrow 12/27/2021 2:11 AM

quick

cheeser0613 12/27/2021 8:15 AM

so asume im in 2015 rn, please dont let it be tight

cheeser0613 12/27/2021 8:16 AM

also remove this

cheeser0613 12/27/2021 8:19 AM

i saw no reason that this freeze should be here, it still under noobfilter, slowing down player in noobfilter with not challenging part is meanless

cheeser0613 12/27/2021 8:21 AM

for this kind of freeze exit, its better if there is unfreeze

cheeser0613 12/27/2021 8:22 AM

also try to not use same color, or change the design

cheeser0613 12/27/2021 8:45 AM

if both tee touch the tele at the same time, it wont align anymore

cheeser0613 12/27/2021 8:47 AM

this map gameplay have most of the problem on the part creativity and difficulty leap

Tsin 12/27/2021 10:13 AM

Hello

@Peo

this map is not good with todays standards. It have tooo simple drag parts. How about a change of the whole map ? I would remove all teleports and change them all into kill tiles. With this simple change whole map would be like a "1 try map" and it would make it more exciting. The map should be longer. Now it feels kind a short one. Colors of walls should be more matching the colors of the flag. Background is too plain and simple (cloud here and there should do the trick). With making map more challenging (more kill tiles, more faily), I would also go with a name change to something like "Chill'N'die" =]

Hi

justFlippo 12/27/2021 10:53 AM

Well, I agree on most stuff what Tsin said...

I don't really know why people are starting to create so many outdated gameplay maps atm. Those maps aren't fun to play, cause its just basic drag stuff here and there all over again.

I dont see this map releasable, even if u rework this to a "1 try map" what Tsin suggesting. Deleting this and starting a new map, with better gameplay would be better.

Peo 12/27/2021 12:41 PM

i think oldschool type maps are the best maps, but its a preference i guess

Peo 12/27/2021 12:42 PM

what about it is outdated?

justFlippo 12/27/2021 12:43 PM

Well, this type of parts you "created" are outdated. Take a look on newer maps to see what we're looking for nowadays.

Peo 12/27/2021 12:45 PM

"created"?

Peo 12/27/2021 12:45 PM

i get what u mean, but i think this "outdated" way of maping is superior to the new style

Peo 12/27/2021 12:45 PM

oldschool teeworlds feel

Peo 12/27/2021 12:45 PM

smooth gameplay

Peo 12/27/2021 12:46 PM

i know?

justFlippo 12/27/2021 12:54 PM

Maybe what I said wasn't very clear.^^ These kind of maps are not popular nowadays, they are not fun. We're looking for creative and unique maps - or at least they should be fun for the player to play on.

Check out these maps to see what I'm trying to tell you: YeYou 1-5: unique parts with a good flow Pogchy: parts are spiced up with a tool (telegun) Depressed 1 & 2: parts to think about with good flow

Peo 12/27/2021 12:56 PM

naah man ur wrong, players love oldshool maps

Peo 12/27/2021 12:56 PM

lets agree to disagree

justFlippo 12/27/2021 12:56 PM

Nope 🙂

justFlippo 12/27/2021 12:57 PM

Maybe there are some funny oldschool maps, but there shouldnt be any new ones. There are planty oldschool maps that aren't released yet. No need to create new ones. 🙂

Peo 12/27/2021 1:01 PM

yes

justFlippo 12/27/2021 1:02 PM

Im sorry to tell you.

Peo 12/27/2021 1:02 PM

well

Peo 12/27/2021 1:02 PM

oldschool is bets

Peo 12/27/2021 1:02 PM

best

Peo 12/27/2021 1:02 PM

new sucky

justFlippo 12/27/2021 1:03 PM

You can still create your own server to play this map with your friends. 🙂

Peo 12/27/2021 1:04 PM

are you smiling in real life too?

I.K.U 12/27/2021 1:06 PM

sometimes testers use way too much smiley faces

I.K.U 12/27/2021 1:07 PM

also for most people oldschool are very boring

I.K.U 12/27/2021 1:07 PM

but its personal preference

Peo 12/27/2021 1:07 PM

yes u speak tha tru tru

ds273 12/27/2021 1:42 PM

i mean, to give an example of one oldschool map trend that isn't really popular today and some reasons why it's discouraged This specific section isn't very interesting. it's basically nothing more than "do common technique A 2 times in a row, then do common technique B several times in a row" The hammer bits here aren't even moderate tier, this kind of thing shows up in old novice maps. So to regular Moderate map players, this section is not only boring, but it doesn't really contribute much to the difficulty either. It also doesn't improve the flow or prevent congestion (actually, the fact that it's the only path for a solo tee to get up there makes it a bottleneck). So to me, this section is pretty forgettable.

cheeser0613 12/27/2021 1:44 PM

no one will comment bad stuff about this map if youre targeting your map in oldschool style and submit it as oldschool map

ds273 12/27/2021 1:46 PM

yeah, if you want to make oldschool style maps they should be submitted as oldschool maps because people who play other map categories aren't looking for more oldschool maps to be added there

TearlessAbyss46 12/27/2021 1:46 PM

"we're looking for creative and unique maps" last 50maps were just barren copy-paste or stronghold type maps -.-

ds273 12/27/2021 1:47 PM

if anything, theres a whole bunch of super oldschool style maps in the regular categories that should be moved to oldschool category IMO

ds273 12/27/2021 1:49 PM

anyway, this is unrelated to the oldschool subject, but i would suggest trying to make everything in your maps look intentional or "natural" in some sense. The spawn room looks like it's just a bunch of rectangles randomly plunked down in MS Paint and doesn't feel like much effort was put in there

justFlippo 12/27/2021 1:50 PM

Ye, but those maps are popular. You can find every day (at least one) full server with a map like Stronghold, Back in Time, ... Also maps like barren are played that often, cause you can play it with friends or solo with your dummy - cause its challenging.

justFlippo 12/27/2021 1:51 PM

But this isnt a chatroom to discuss such a thing, thats only for map feedback and the map got declined. Head over to

#mapping

or catch me up via DM.^^

Ryu 12/27/2021 1:58 PM

just make your map flavour of the month and it will get accepted no need to be creative

Ryu 12/27/2021 1:58 PM

goodluck with next map Peo :)

Peo 12/27/2021 2:32 PM

yes thanks for feedback!
