Also note the tower in the background. It has one of those ladders you can jump up.

I love it! A few months ago I considered making an arena-type map myself, but abandoned the idea due to my inability to make the proper models, so I'm glad to see somebody else doing it, and doing it much better than I ever could have. Great work! :wink:

This looks awesome! It's funny how so many people got caught up in making battles that resemble star wars battles, but forgot about making ones that occur in real life.

This looks like it's gonna be so much fun. If you wanna add ctf to it, I was thinking inside of each bunker where u spawn, their is a sortof path leading underground, and their are tables and chairs here, and the flag is here. But the flag would look like a map, and the enemy is trying to steal your war plans and bring it back to their base to analyze. That would be pretty cool. I was also thinking it would be fun if it had a series of underground tunnels going through it that leads to the other bases flag, but that could ruin the fun of the strategic battle occuring on ground lvl. Anyways like I said before, nice map!

Thank you! I too thought of adding underground tunnels. Unfortunately that'd require a lot of work for many reasons.

1. AI only think in 2 dimensions.
2. I don't have any tunnel models and would have to try and go with hoth tunnels or something, which wouldn't look to great.
3. I rarely have any free time to do much more than the basics. I return home late, and I have an hour or less before I go to bed again. I'll still try to add some frills on the weekends.

I'd still think it'd be cool though, I just don't have the resources (time & content) :cry:

Really nice idea. I like the camera-droid. Maybe some... I don't know. No changes needed. Perfect. :) :)

This is looking awesome.I've always thought that BF2 maps in general lacked tactical positions and such.They always lacked cover in my opinion.One suggestion, maybe you could make a new animation and weapon that would make a unit punch/shove another.You could have it so that when you tap the weapon, it punches, but when you hold it down, it shoves the target backwards and inflicts more damage.I think a close combat option like punching/shoving would be fun in this map, seeing as you are making it so that it looks like a real life combat situation, besides the :clone: / :bdroid2: troops.

New mode coming soon with these guys. Red vs Blue I think.

Taivyx's textured sniper rifle (textured by me, modeled by him, it looks sweet btw :P ) should go in there too soon:

If this is an arena, shoudn't you make it look like it's inside (atleast I think it would be pretty awesome). Nice solider, it should be gold versus red insteas of blue verses red. Now if you put in a master chief model, I this map would be uberly popular!
