I made some modifications to the twjd/lj map

[schope]

what do you guys think about it ?

[Awesome]

it doesnt seem like you've changed anything at all except at the center entrance you opened up 2 big holes in the corners. dont know if that would be better or worse.

moving the safes slightly away from where they are now and expanding the outside of base area doesn't really appeal to me.

i was talking with a few people the other day about the Jav arena needing a chance because right now it's more suited to people who use bullets instead of bombs because of all the open space. i was thinking of adjusting it myself and submitting it but not at all like the way you did it.

As far as I know, the twjd map hasn't been changed to look like the twlj map. I'd REALLY like that to happen since the upper corners ARE useless 80% of the time, while in the twlj map they're not. PLEASE at least make them the same.

I agree with you and i also modified the lj map to make it easier to get in without getting strayed with more opennings and a wide entrance like

LOL i tried to look at it really hard... but i can find any differences (only safes) its good i guess since i didnt find anything new there :up:

[Awesome]

look at the lower section of the center entrance. he made them opened up so people could stray bombs out of there from a relatively safe position

also he moved the safes so people had more room under where they used to be (outside of the base but above the "Do Not Cross" line) for some reason.

old one


new one

It looks like the same but entrance is more wide, and also you can avoid main tube with those other 2 entrances. I think it would avoid spawnage and strayage when you try to enter base.

Just a high idea.

I dont agree with you

the more you make barriers and close the more bullets are important to corner ppl and then bomb.

when map is wide you just dodge it back left right up down the more walls you put less places you got to dodge bullets .

I don't see how moving the safes to the vertical wall would make any difference that what it is right now. Unless this is some cosmetic device, TW staff will always have the mentality of "if its not broken, why change it?" The openings of the corners are prone to bomb traps, because the area is so small, the choke point doesn't have much possibility for the bomb to go but to explode right on the corner, which makes that entrance really dumb to go in thru unless you make the hole small enuf to not fit a ship.

Your map also made me think that the mid entrance should ressemble a funnel shape, where the entrance is as it is now, but the higher you get, the more room should be enabled, so in essence, the wall shouldn't be vertical, but should have a slight vertical slant. This should prevent people getting caught in this chain.

I u have to focus on tiles and spaces.

Safe was moved to make entrance to sides more wide, not just for moving it :P. Im my mind it also would make easier when you are like 1v3 at the end to get in base, that was the idea.

A ship has 2 or 3 tiles right ? that entrance has 3 tiles so i think a ship can pass through it. I openned there as an option to fly in, even as tricky as the side entrances. You also can get bombed if you get on sides.

It also would be cool if main entrance could be verticalized, its an idea.

I posted the map with few modifications just as a high idea :P and to motivate more ppl to do the same, cause as you said, ppl hardly change it.
