TF2 map Cp_Observation

[sporeguy99]

That is epic! I'm currently learning how to use hammer. All I can make at the moment are spawn rooms lol.

[HeyLookItsASpah]

Tung, the Icelandic lesbian?

[thenerfassasin1231]

i really like it good job

[Fer11496]

what I like the most is the song

[devyboo2]

well...the music is horrible but the map is so awesome it kinda mutes it

[TheJeNgaMaN147]

Send this map to valve... NOW!!!!!

seriously it's a very good map :D

[zeldadude6]

Looks awesome. Good Job!

[NoOnesScream]

dude are you brazillian or spanish? =D

[JanimationD]

i liked the stairs that pop out of the ground (once the point has capped im guessing) that allow passage to next area.

[dodgydogman]

@ExtacyOfMorbidDeath :D Trolls are fun!

[dodgydogman]

@ExtacyOfMorbidDeath You're so funny.

[SenatorJase]

Interesting looking level. I liked the resupply. Seems to be quite a bit of variety. If I find a server running this I will most certainly give it a shot.

[dodgydogman]

@ExtacyOfMorbidDeath He didnt call it child porn observation you silly person. He called it cp_observation, in which the cp stands for capture point. If YOU read something else, thats just what you seem to be thinking about.

[Massivekiller999]

Nice map but, couldnt a demoman, scout, soldier, and engineer get up to the other point w/out the stairs?

[link5427yum]

why would blu defend 0_O

[boggyhouse]

whoa 3 days to make the best usermade map ever?

[Secrettophat]

pretty sick map.

[lolcatmaster1]

Epik 9001/5

[tbardia]

awsome! best map ever specially with the folding stuff

[UnknownAccount123]

awesome map, i wished one of the servers would use this map

[XenosRex]

Jesus.... Nice map...

[DominicHax]

damn you must be the worlds most unlazy mapper there is because thats hard to sit there for 3 days without getting bored or lazy

[ChrisNahrgang]

wow! best playermade map I've seen! 3 days!!??

[justus954]

wow.......... Would be more epic if the glass floor middle would open :D

[keithgarry]

nice work,

the rotating ammo dispensaries are pretty good and good work on the lighting too.

[timerider4]

Those collapsible stairs are very cool. Very Portal-like.

[Didongoes411]

Holy crap, this ONLY took you three days? by three days do you mean 72 hours? If so, I STILL find that hard to believe. Insanely awesome map. 5/5

[Tf2redsniper11]

- sleep, - friends - dinner - school/job

LESS than 72 hours.

[p1p0cr4zy]

Seems like a gravelpit map, only BLU defends.

[ianboswell]

That's exactly what I was going for. Like Gravelpit only you can see both points at once, just they're spread apart.

[DJBassEnergy]

wow awesome map dude, i wish i could get hammer editor or whatever your useing

[caha11]

its for free... just download it from steam?

[ace0508]

very cool map...

keep it up and reach for the top ;)

[eyesonlyfd]

Good map, awful music.

[DrMcperson]

One of the best maps i've ever seen good job 5/5

[Daneywaney]

Nice map, For some reason source sdk wont let me compile displaced ground. and Just wondering how long did it take you to make this? My first map (which is pretty much crap) took me a week.

[TTCHypnotist]

To big perhaps, or making it a entity, faulty textures... just a few common problems i know of :3

[Daneywaney]

yeah, I started a new one and it seems to be working fine, but thanks.

[killerzombie091]

dats one nice map

[ianboswell]

After running some tests I've concluded this map is perfect for instant respawn servers, but not for much else. Just throwing that note out there.

[thegamer1236]

EPIC man it must of taken months to make that

[KingKombat95]

if you watched the video he said it took 3 days.

[thegamer1236]

i dont watch credits, i read discriptions

[KingKombat95]

it was in the beginning you ignorant fuck.

[UnknownAccount123]

LOL

[DHREAVER]

:( i went to pause but clicked 1 star and i can't undo it... someone 5star it for me please:D

[CyberZombie88]

how did you make it so when you capture B you get the stairs to advance up?

[KillDastY]

Like Valve MAP Awesome work dud !!

[zant4]

reds revenge from dustbowl

[CyberZombie88]

dude, this map is awesome, once i get my Better RAM, And graphics card, i will hostthis on one of my "You Know Whats An Awesome Map?" videos, just wanted to tell you. :D

[majsbullen]

lol @ the end

[circulation211]

This map is EPIC. There needs to be more people who know their way around VHammer like you

[PKRockin7]

*Speechless* (Positively)

[Anonymousology]

Sorry for real criticism:

some of the areas are too much too large for team fortress 2.

Also, some of the little window that cuts the corner (the demoman shot through this), seems much too advantageous for whomever has the point because of demoman spam OVERLOAD potential.

It is visually pleasing and other than the size of parts of the maps, it looks very cool.

Is this map played on any servers at this time?  If so which one(s) as I still would really like to play this map.

too long of a post. :P

[ianboswell]

This is actually the smallest map I've ever done so that criticism seems very bizarre to me. The points were designed to give advantages in mind to the point holder. This allows red to progressively push forward, ultimately needing to hold blue off at their spawn while capturing the point in front of their base. Also the demoman's weakness is in his lack of ammo and somewhat long reload time. Cornerspam isn't the end-all-be-all especially since a sniper could easily dominate that corner.

[dreske3]

First, I had the same criticism as Anonymousology, but now I hear the sniper-thing...

I really want to play it, is it uploaded on a server yet ?

[ianboswell]

Some people are hosting it, i'm not sure where, though. It's on FPS banana.

As for the "too large" theory I figured out it's because of the way I constructed the levels. They're actually tight with high ceilings giving the illusion of the arenas being larger than they actually are.

[twitcher64]

Well I think pyros would get ripped apart in this map. Might be wrong seeing as I haven't played it yet. Just based on what I've seen.

[Munchy365]

@twitcher64 Pyros getting ripped apart? I don't see anything wrong with that.

[Nware3]

That is incredible

[CaffeinePowered]

look cool

[JoelTheLemur]

Nice o.o

[Feenuxz]

The resupply's look much better than the boring lockers.

[LegoWeaponsMaker]
