Geonosis: Freight Dock

Geonosis: Freight Dock
Ruuria: Jungle Ruins | Bespin: Urban Canyon

Another Geonosis map? Oh no! Oh yes! :D
The map is set on Geonosis but still feels totally different. The battle takes place in a freight dock (who guesses that?^^) with multiple routes to reach the hostile cps. But take a look at the screenhots as they show that much better.

The map comes complete with radar map, loading screen and a completely planned AI.

The map features conquest and 2-flag CTF mode for both eras (GC and GCW).

If you play conquest mode I'd recommend setting AI count to 32 to have a more pleasurable gameplay.

Please comment! :D

Wow, I don't say this often. Just wow, I'm really impressed. I did not see this coming, at all. This is your first map right?

This is definitely worth a download. :thumbs:

I just can concur.
What I like in your maps is the variety of props used; The use of the CW assets is a very, very good thing. Great work!
D/Ling now, it will stays in my addon folder for sure :thumbs:

Seriously though, I don't often have that reaction. When I saw Geonosis, I thought, great, another Geonosis map. Proved me wrong. Another great map by a great modder. This is really very, very good. Excellent use of objects, and it flows really well.

Looks good from the screens. I'll give it a try. I'll report back in a bit.

EDIT: Man... that was a great battle. Nothing like any Geonosis map I've ever played!

Highly recommend it, guys!

Very fun and chaotic map! Just enough cover every where, keeping it from being tedious when capturing CPs. Nice job overall! :thumbs:

Really nice map, great layout, nice minimap (maybe delete the white part ?), thanks for the french localization :thumbs:, some of the assets textures are very lowrez in my opinion. Work on the lighting, it is too bright, a brown light would feet nicely, and the map would be perfect :thumbs: .
I'll keep it in my addon, like your 2nd map 8) .

Yeah, I know, but I really suck at working with textures^^
I've finished working on this map and I'm currently working on a naboo map. But I'm not really happy with the map yet and HQ mode still doesn't work. University starts in a week, so this might be my last map for a while.

Wow, that was a great couple of matches. This is an exceptional map.

Here are some of the (rare) issues I found:
-Not sure about this one, but a missign firesound on the ATRT?
-It was hard to get up one of the ramps, but I made it without jumping eventually.
-The geoturrets are placed closely to the edge, and the player can fall off it the turret if it is facing the wrong direction.

That looks like some very nice object placement, definitely worth a download. :)

This is one of the best custom maps I have played in a long time. You put a ton of effort into the map, and I was glad you did so. A lot of people just make side mods and slap together a poor map.

Object Placement: 9/10
Visuals: 7/10 (better textures and bump maps would get you a 9/10)
Planning: 9/10 (The AI was pretty smart, not much to complain about here).
Overall: 8.5/10



I would recommend this map to anyone. :thumbs:
