Favorite CTF map

Post by EvilGrins »

Because I've a bit more free time lately, relatively speaking, thought I'd do a mapping project for a bestest bud. No insult to the rest of you, but I've chatted up Hermskii more than most any other of you about UT.

Asked him what his fave CTF map was, and was surprised he went with one of the originals...
http://hermskii.com/Forum/viewtopic.php?f=17&t=3729
...CTF-Face.

All the maps made by players, some in my opinion better than the originals, and yet his fave is that one.

So, out of curiosity, what's your (you who be reading this) fave CTF map?

We play mainly CTF and there's plenty of good ones. I think Face is the all time best but another one that is requested often by my students is CTF-BloodcoreArena.

CTF-Face
1) Considering DWT (DistanceViewTriggers) settings is unbalanced;
2) In a certain location Combo-Shock cannot be operated because of BSP;
3) Some BlockAll from BlueBase might keep you away from collecting a weapon in a heat moment because geometry has been nice bugged;
4) I haven't seen asteroids On-Line and neither in other maps with that SkyBox imported from CTF-Face = 0 improvements;
5) Map looks generally like a kind of noob test looking over those translocXXXX Navigationpoints placed very high in air (even some tag includes string "test" - I though it was a professional example but I was wrong);
6) PlayerStarts of course are placed to develop SpawnProtectors by others;
7) Bot follows always the same way back. Author forgot to read chapter AlternatePath.

More checking it and trying to solve geometry, more I get pissed;

We don't need to mention other stock or claimed stock.
I'm curious about custom ones, I wanna play some goodies.

I think the best CTF stock map is Coret. I don't think people fully understand how rich this map is on a strategic level and how perfect it is regarding anticipating/finding the flag carrier.

My fav would be either Eternalcave or Face2 though. Wonderful assymetric CTF that works on one side, superb remake of Face on the other.
You must construct additional pylons.

My favorite map for CTF changes every week, but at this moment it's CTF-CivilwarN64Ver2.

Intense action in close quarters, love that map! The CTF4 version is insane.

My favorite CTF maps are ... EpicBoy and Northern-Lights :mrgreen:
Depending on the weapons can those maps take more then half an hour to be finished.
Disposable-Heroes is my second most liked.

My favorites are LavaGiant and November. I don't play CTF much anymore however, but when I used to play it with bots, I could screw around on those maps forever.

Damn ...I forgot CaveGiant ...it's huge like LavaGiant but a "little bit" more symmetric and it's inside a gigantic cave.
