Labyrinth?

[kai]

So guys, I'm still mapping and yes, I am still working on sky_tower.

But, I want to do a map that's fun to make, and would be great to have! I'm thinking a giant Labyrinth, one of monstrous size that will challenge the player with twists and turns. But beware, it's no walk in the park. Traps, monsters, death!

You get the idea huh? Well what do you think? if you guys think a Huge Labyrinth with traps, monsters, and tricks is a good idea, then vote! and I will make it.

I'd say make it dynamic - either make it have multiple layouts (walls with multiple set positions, on map load trigger and a random number gen) or a maze that's constantly changing (walls move around randomly etc) - otherwise once the layout is figured, your map won't be very exciting.

It's not a bad idea though - will it be somewhat freeroam with transitions to deeper maps (eg mscave) or a gauntlet map with a boss and loot - or a combination?

After first play u remember all ways in labirynth. If it possible make changing map

I remember making such a map once for 1.3, it was called maze or something, it had random func_door opening and closing, thus making a unique maze each time you play it
you had to find a treasure, and several rooms were full of dangerous monsters, back then it was usually, murmurs, undamaels, calrians, and such monsters.

Along with bmountain_breakable they were the best 1.3 maps ever.

Before crow's maps and thothies fixes for 1.3 of course.

Ok, I was tired and reading to fast, but I read "bmountain_breakable" as "Brokeback Mountain" >_<

It was a very very very tall mountain made of rock, in 1.3 it used multiplayer collision, no matter how much you fell you would always loose 10 hp, so we went all the way to the top, and destroyed the mountain using arrows and fell down, then reloaded the map.'

Bmountain meant Bloodrose Mountain.

No offence, but according to the vote, you seems to be the only one expressing this feeling.

 

[Snow Wolf / RaZoR]

tbh, i dont really care about that, lol. I'd voted yes if he gave me map overview , OR it would be cool if theres an big place with much monsters and there u get da mapz overwiewz

That basically sums up your opinion of a challenge.

 

[Sabre]

kai, I hope your mazes are awesome, and that they will make razor whine endlessly(until he's kicked)

 

[!=-PhoeniX-=!]

Snow Wolf, your never up to a maze i bet you get mad at the lost_castle maze...

OVERVIEWS RUIN MAZES!!!!!

 

[IARI]

If you would manage to make a dynamic (maybe even 3-dimensional?) maze where Evryone gets lost and no matter how often you load it it always takes an hour to find the real cool chest i'd be impressed

i'd love to see that

Confusing 3d maze, eh? Reminds me of ms_caves (no, not mscave)

 

[!=-PhoeniX-=!]

How about look into Diablo's level designs. They have great dungeons that take sometimes hours to find the boss or next floor and all that other stuff.

Hours? You're terrible :roll:.

 

[!=-PhoeniX-=!]

Ok so maybe not hours maybe a few minutes to an hour? (Unless its the retarded catacombs i hate them).

I should add that I am in fact making a map with a giant maze in it already, fact at its current rate I may take mibs map I been working on and break it down into 3 different maps so I can detail them better.

map 1 the town
map 2 semi difficult maze
map 3 scary hard maze

the quest on the map will only require you to go as far as map 2 however, anyone willing to go all the way to map 3 may find some interesting stuff. either way I was thinking along this line only for the fact it would allow me to add more details where I want them within the 3 different maps instead of a bland generic giant map.

on a side note, I have done enough brush work as of now for about 5 different maps... If I can ever get the brush work the way I wan't and get the entities in there and what not I may just have to release a Blasto121 map pack.

Blasto, I'm perfectly fine with you breaking it up, but if you do, release 1 & 2 and leave a trans for 3. I NEEDZ THE THING INGAME PL0X.

[Gurluas]

Maybe i should find the old 1.3 maze...hmm

 

[J-M v2.5.5]

You mean 'megalvs'? I still have that one.

 

[Jelly]

I remember making such a map once for 1.3, it was called maze or something

So I don't think it's megalvls, however if you do have your huge epic map pack, maybe it's included?
