Looking for good 12-16 player maps

[Marscaleb]

I'm looking for some more quality large DM maps. Something that plays well with 12-16 players. (or higher, I suppose, we can add bots.)
I've found a couple sites that host UT99 maps, but it's pretty time consuming to go through all of them, I downloaded a bunch of them and only found maybe two that seemed like what I'm looking for.

I figure there are folks here who probably can recommend some good ones already, so I thought I would ask for some suggestions.

I will state upfront that I'm looking for maps that meet the same standards as the official maps; not just in terms of quality, but also for how the map functions. A bunch of the maps I was looking at did things like include (or were built for) special mods and/or weapon replacements, or they had special themes that brought with them practically a gig of new textures and models that made them look more like something from a different game.

Any suggestions?

You could start with this

Many of FraGnBraGs maps are huge and awesome, definetly recommend his work (they have FNB in their name).
His site: https://sites.google.com/site/fragnbrag/Home

Finally, in https://unrealarchive.org/maps/unreal-t ... index.html you can see the recommended player count, and when you click the map it shows a pic of the map (if it has one) and the files it contains.

Here's a good one https://unrealarchive.org/maps/unreal-t ... c2c21.html

UnrealGGecko's suggestions above will help you a lot.

And now some of my favorites:

Dm-Falkenstein is the one I play more frequently
DM-XC-EpicTownV2A is awesome too.
DM-FNB-SpacePort is an example of FraGnBraGs map for many players/bots.

I also use some other maps (mostly open space ones) to test something.

Yes you can add up to 32 bots and I yet played the maps above with 32 bots. More than 32 should be impossible.

This GINORMOUS map can easily handle as many players as you can find with room to spare.

It's not well pathed, I should warn - viewtopic.php?f=5&t=11721

I presented it for pathing back when but the best pathing people lost their minds attempting it.

DM-Tigerhunt][ is a pretty good large map if you're into rural maps.

There's also a couple of Star Wars maps that are fairly large.

This map is trying so hard to be PUB-G that it's adorable.
It's not balanced right at all for the kind of map I'm looking for, but I'm keeping it anyway; this is just too cute.
Someone needs to make a legitimate Battle Royale gametype for that map. Last Man Standing isn't going to cut it.

(And before anyone says it, yes I can see that it was made a good fifteen years before PUBG, but the point still stands.)
