Dx Studios. Probably the most rushed map I have ever produced! 5 day's total work... all to grid size as always now days (hint hint) zoned map as well and a month to go yet. So time to spare to fix and alter textures and lay out of the whole map. tbh I hate it

anyway here is my half arsed map for this challenge

I need a holiday from mapping after this

It looks a bit empty on the last picture, did they stole the furniture?

Anyway good work (Y)

Welcome on board Chees.
One question, what's the concept, is this a drive-in MacDonalds?

It's going to be tough to sort out where to add spawns, perhaps one team is holding the studio? I'm thinking back now to an episode of Quantum Leap where the radio station staff have locked themselves in and are playing good 'ole rock n' roll against the wishes of the local mayor type dude.

Playability was a big concern when I looked at this one too. Assaulting the studio might be a good idea, but you have to be careful where you put things so there's not too much of an advantage to either side

Nostrocorp springs to mind. Lots of places and windows where you can shoot attackers. Also if you feel like it you can 20mm people outside, it's rather fun. For that type of map to work, it needs some cover outside and maybe plenty of entrances or to somehow balance things to weaken the defender's positions.

Almost well enough to start mapping again. I will rethink a few things, thanks for the feed back

Update. I was very ill the last few weeks following a minor H Attack and major flu and chest virus ughhhh so now I'm back to mapping and through this together after a re think of what was said. the pics are a small view of the overall map and still working progress so hang fire on remarks like no deco and crap like that! (PS Shadow if you mention it looks like Mc Donnalds drive threw I slap you about the head bro

)

ask this dude on YT if u can use his music, this could go so well if you make a lil radio in uEd ad have a sound class by it
edit - have it playing in the recording room, that would work better! if he doesn't want u to use it then u could just use the classic UNATCO music.

That sound's like a plan Alessi
I cant add anymore to this map now as I hit 2mb already and not everything has been added

time to shuffle things round to make it all fit.
