Robo Typhoon's Profile - Custom Maps for Team Fortress.

Robo Typhoon Posted 1 year ago

Pros:

- Custom map is error free! No missing models or textures.
- The different game play style is unique, it's fun to play not knowing where the control point is going to be each round.
- Team play/spawn seemed fairly fair, no game ruining advantages.
- The map is pretty well detailed; I was impressed.
- The lighting compliments the map so well, whether you're inside or out the lighting looks surreal.
- Ammo and Health drops were spread out, locations were fair.

Cons:

- It can be a bit confusing to understand how the map works if you never played territory control before.
- Displacement could have been a bit smoother.
- Some minor lag spikes in certain areas.

Conclusion:

- What an awesome map, I mean honestly the map feels refreshing to play. It reminds me of the old Crash Bandicoot games I used to play on PS1 and PS2, with the custom textures and models. Team play is very fair, and I found that surprising in a map where the control point changes from round to round; I mean that could be the only con if you don't like a challenge. Overall, I would totally recommend this map to everyone, there's no way you wouldn't enjoy playing this map unless you have a lower end computer or just can't take the time to enjoy something a little different.

Pros:

- Quite possibly one of the most interesting map styles to play.
- The 'rocket carriers' looks and function just like you would imagine, so it's believable especially since it's actually moving.
- The desert theme always makes for a better atmospheric feel, at least I think.
- Custom content adds variety, plus these custom textures are pretty nice.
- No errors, or anything of the like.
- Fair amount of metal/health drops.

Cons:

- Being a symmetrical map isn't really a con, it just doesn't add any mystery to what the other teams area looks like.
- The fact that you can actually fall off is good, but not when Pyro's spam their air blasts.

Conclusion:

- Convoy is one of those maps you could just play all night and not get bored with it. It's a fair, well designed different type of map; I don't know too many people who don't enjoy playing this. If I ever get my own server, Convoy will be one of the first maps I host.

Pros:

- It's Minecraft textured; totally unique.
- Visually, it looks like a Minecraft world would look.
- The lighting looks pretty good, although there's no real light source blocks (glowstone).
- Fairly large battlefield, leaves a lot of room for team play.
- The fact that it's multi-leveled (as in it goes underground then above ground) adds variety to suite your gameplay style.
- Some of the environment is destructible, that's fun to play with, aha.
- Fair amount of metal and health pickups.

Cons:

- I think you could have chosen some better spots to put the metal/health pickups.
- Could have used a bit more texture variation.
- I might have added some grass or mushroom sprites, even flowers, just to break it up a bit more.

Conclusion:

- I believe this could possibly be one of the best Minecraft themed TF2 maps around, or at least on this site. Some people might not enjoy playing a block-styled map, but it's different than the usual which makes it all that much more fun. I would recommend this to anyone who enjoys playing Minecraft.

Pros:

- The Egypt style is great! Makes for a very nice atmosphere to play in.
- Everything works and is fair for both teams.
- The sky is a good fit, sometimes people's biggest flaws are with the sky.

Cons:

- Could be a bit bigger.
- Basically no cons.

Conclusion:

- I played this map online once, and I can say by far it was one of the best custom maps I have ever had the chance to play aha. I highly, highly recommend this map, because it has just a good playing atmosphere, and it's fair and nice. You did a great job REEJ, cheers!

Pros:

- It's a custom map ;D
- Nice, simple set up.
- Textures looked good for the most part, it felt like a TF2 map.
- Everywhere in the map seems fair, like Blue does not have an advantage over Red.
- The snow was a good touch.

Cons:

- It's only for Arena game mode:3
- The background and skybox, as well as the sky texture just don't seem to all match and go together as well as it should.
- You built some buildings sorta funny, but I mean nothing to stress about, it's not really an issue.
- The trains seemed a bit overdone, but not really.

Conclusion:

- It is a nice, simple map. It feels like TF2 material, but, it also feels like every other TF2 map there is. It's no doubt worth downloading, but it's also not the best map out and around. REEJ, just keep on practicing and making maps like this, you will only get better haha.
