I was planning to create a new map called capture the flag but you can also pass the flag to other player. You can also buy all sorts of stuff such as traps and neutral units that you can control to spy on other people but lately I was thinking of making the entire map visible to everyone and should I have sniper rifles which you can buy or not?! Help me out please!!!

Oh yeah, please don't call me a censored.gif noob map maker with the most censored.gif idiotic map ideas and other ideas I have ever heard of or seen!

Yea I'm gonna go with snipe here. Maybe make it more strategic like make trails they could follow or paths so they would have to choose where to go in different situations. Maybe instead of having to buy neutral units maybe add a computer team to mix it up a bit. happy.gif

How about "Capture the Flag" and "Team Capture the Flag" game modes? You've got strategy in that. Oh and BTW snipers is the same as paintball, you get a ghost and kill the other team, and bring a flag back or whatever, at least that's how I remember it.

I'd recommend looking at the map "Starcraft Fortress" for ideas. It's a blizzard UMS map that comes with SC, and you get to choose one of eight teams of 3 units each, and every group has a worker unit, which you use to pick up the opposing team's flag and carry it back home.
You get points for capturing the flag and for killing enemy teams.

Don't make your map a snipers/paintball map, there are too many already.

I wouldn't reveal the map to everyone, it'd make the gamplay more simplistic and less strategic.

I've taken all your ideas into consideration and I think that I will make the sniper rifles something you buy. The question is, how should the currency be like? gas that slowly goes up? minerals you get from kills? I agree that I should make the rifles costy so this doesn't end up as a paintball. Some more ideas on items would be nice. Thank you guys for the great ideas and if you could just help me answer the questions above I will appreciate your help greatly! smile.gif biggrin.gif smile.gif

For currency, maybe I'd go with Unreal Tournament 2003/2004 adrenaline. Kill people for it, capture the flag for more of it, pick up common powerups for it.....

hmmm.... I like that idea biggrin.gif thx ed, however, do you think the money for kills part will make it a kill fest rather than capture the flag? I also need some more ideas for items... I've sorta gotten rid of the snipers rifles but if you guys vote to I'll bring them back tongue.gif

Also any ideas for the map are welcome! blushing.gif

I thought of an original Idea for CTF 3 years ago but never made the map...
I will post my Idea here As Well

2 Teams 3v3, Start with 1 tank each and Siege it to place your flag. Everyone is
Zlots on there own side but Civilians Of The Other side. Basicaly you just try to bring the flag over the line... I was goign to have Upgrades you can get on the enemy side such as Speed Upgrade, Slow Upgrade (Enemies)

I neer thought of the placing idea and to make it harder I didn't want them to just make it over the half line but bring it back to base... They will all be zealots and yes, I want 2 teams 3 players each and 2 computers for all the side stuff. w00t.gif
Also... anyone wanna help me? helpsmilie.gif
