Hey everyone :)

I have tried to make a map that makes the transition between hunting and camping fluid. The map is shaped like an infinity symbol, with 2 main rooms connected by the main road and a bridge crossing. While i have tried to create a varied enviroment for the zombies to use, i have always had in mind to make the paths overseeable and to leave plenty of space. I really hope this plays well, because it took a lot of time.

I have deleted about half of the props that were only there for detailing to reduce lag.

I would like this map removed/adjusted and here are some reasons why:
  • I have the worst fps out of all maps here
  • No chance for humans to "hunt" or "camp"
  • Zombies win 99% of the time

This map could be nice on the old servers without autosnipers and tanky zombies...(but fps-fix needed nevertheless)

Thx for the constructive critism. I was aiming for a ct winrate of 3% but i will admit i messed up and only achieved one of 1% as you write.

No for real, i understand what you say about the fps atleast. I have an avg above 60 fps, which is fine for me, but some people might think otherwise and some might not even have that depending on their pc. One thing i have noticed is that there can be a big drop in fps, when a lot of people die at the same time, which will happen more often on this map, because i have made the criteria of succes to be more depended on teamwork. I´m sure that this will get better as people get better at the map. Remember that you are comparing it to maps that have been played for hundred of hours by a lot of people. Maps that are easy from the start would get boring in the long run in my opinion.

If enough people feel the same way about the fps, i can try to do more though. I dont want a map that is frustrating because of the fps :/

I'm not familiar with the map because I don't play enough, however generally speaking it would be smart to:
1) understand where it can be further optimized. Is it static objects, is it missing occlusions, is it the lights?
2) make it as close as possible to a 50/50 zm/humans rate, when it gets too easy for the humans you can always release a v2 that introduces more complexity, but at that point people will not be caught off guard just as much.
Regards

I can try using occlussions again. I removed them in the latest version, because i thought that they might have a negative net impact, but i might be able to place them in a better position. I like your idea of introducing maps with a more complex version in mind for the future. I will try that approach with future maps! :)
