What map should I make?

Howdy FFers,
I've been mapping with Hammer since 1999-ish, and decided to start working with the latest version for source games. I've noticed several attempts at warpath for FF which have mysteriously come to an end. My solution to this is I'm going to start on one, and every release, I'm going to release the source .vmf, so if for some reason I mysteriously vanish like all the other warpath creators, my legacy will exist to be carried on by whoever decides to.
While I am somewhat fluent in creating maps, I still have the goldsrc hiccups, so my geometry is still somewhat basic looking. I'm hoping this experience will aid with that (feel free to critique the hell out of me)
I just started mapping this this morning (roughly 2-3 hours worth of mapping/texturing)



Red spawn area, Red spawn gate, CP5. Early EARLY WIP, enjoy

There is an official warpath in the works (nearly complete).

Badlands!!!

There is a version that was being worked on, but the creator disappeared. I also personally found it too small and enclosed compared to the one in TFC.

It also didn't have the spots for snipers to jump up to to get a better sight on the bridge.

Oh, I had no idea. I hadn't seen anything about it for a while.

I'll have to get B9 and check it out.

See, now you've said that, I'm gonna hound you until you do :P

Yeah, it's a damn big map. I always personally prefered the bigger maps to smaller ones.

OOH! I didn't even think about Osaka! I have some ideas for it, visuals wise, so maybe I'll take a stab at that instead I'm totally down for making maps, but I need to find someone on here who doesn't mind writing the LUA for them.

If you're doing any gametype that's been done before, the lua has already been written for you.
