the only way i would put up with them being on the ice rink, would be if the circles were centered on the stuff they're supposed to be on, instead of being looking random

i think your draft was better than his draft, the only thing different is that he has used a picture (probably copyrighted) and also the lines are very jagged and pixelly and the picture doesnt go with the sort of GFX implied on the map - im sure you could easily draw up some much better GFX

did you do the version on paint?

it only takes around 30mins to get a good draft to explain the point

i originally had it so that the zambonis could only be attacked by one terit, and attack only one terit. that's why the bonus was one. stevenJ hasn't adjusted the bonuses... i personally like my way better, because how can all those terits attack the zambonis?
i also think the center ice should have the conquer club logo. :D
on the legend, the stands are labelled different than on the map. they should both be the same, and be what the legend says.
i will ask again... what is the R&R?!?!?!?!?!?!?!
and in the legend you mentioned "home area"... what is that?
could we use more of the same gameplay as in my maps? i personally liked it (duh...), but of course, what does any one else think?

Hi! I'm not a huge hockey buff, but I'm a sports fan through and through. Therefore, I thought this map seemed worth commenting on.

We all remember that this is "just a draft." I feel like it's fairly well thought out in terms of balanced gameplay and base design. I can't imagine this getting promoted to the foundry until a major graphical overhaul has been unveiled.

Specifically, the stands are overwhelmingly bright and large as compared to the rink. I'm actually surprised at the overall size of this map. It hangs off the top and bottom edges of my 17" laptop monitor. Possibly you could recreate the map within the standard size for small map images. Also, I liked how the stands were sectioned in the previous version.

Overall, this could be an interesting map idea.

Good luck,
Laci

Steven has classes, work, and kids lol give him a break
it took me 30 minutes, but i see its not good enough. i originally wanted a 3d-ish looking map, but i'm not much for creating, i'm a modifier. so if you're willing to wait til july (i'll be schooless/jobless) i can dedicate more time, and can even do the xml

i know its crappy i saw its crappy... as a graphic design students this would not be among my best work, it was just something i cooked up in 30 min or less

stop ripping on me


:cry:

bryguy wrote:well its a start, at least u have the CC logo :mrgreen:

few things

1) Add goalies
2) Add those boxes where the players sit
3) Maybe add some refs?
4) If u could, add the area where the zamboni is kept, and have a bonus for that
5) Maybe also the area that (i assume is always) around the arena where people sell things?
6) And on that note, maybe also add some food sellers who are walking around?
7) see Operation Drugwar, i think this map would be cool if it looked alot like that

i think that is to much to add. i think its good the way it is. the map would have to be huge to get all that in there. i give it a thumbs up for the way it is. lets go flyers!!!
