Antecitizen = Awesome

I thought probably the COOLEST thing in the 2.1 patch is Anticitizen.
You guys did an awesome job on that map, the terrain is awesome, especially the huge hill and the bases and all the different parts of the map. The gameplay is pretty intense throughout all the stages of the map.

Also, I love the half life 2 based theme (combine versus rebels) and the map actually looks very good because you are using those half life 2 props, which actually fit in quite nicely.
I will also note that the lighting is perfect, its nice and easy to see in the map.

Good job guys, probably my favorite map in the game now, definitely hooked me when I started playing

I love this map too. The one thing I don't love is the ceiling over the cap point at the top of the hill. I always hit my head on it when pulling off l33t demo pipe + jump pad + conc combinations

but I guess thats the point!

There aren't many good props to use for FF so the combine stuff helps?

I love this map and ALWAYS play as the attackers. You never know if you'll even get close to capping point 3.

I think combine stuff, especially voice, are sweet. But cornfield and epicenter suck :s

If you think Cornfield sucks, it may mean you're not a real AvD player. I understand that some people dislike Dustbowl (the same way some people dislike 2fort, due to the usual overplaying), but Cornfield is one of the best avanti style maps TFC/FF has, probably behind Ksour, Avanti itself and on par with Asti.

On-topic, I still have to play a real Anticitizien round =/ Most of the time I'm on the server it goes CTF > Waterpolo > Cornfield > CTF > Waterpolo > CTF, rinse and repeat swapping Cornie for Dusty. Guess I'm a bit unlucky =D

Hit me up on Steam.... we can get a bunch of people on one of the official servers and I'll put it on.

The corn should pop in Cornfield if a pyro runs through burning. Totally.

I like that anticitizen makes use of HDR and bloom, but I think the author may have slightly overdone it. I'm not one of those gameplay purists who thinks that every map should be made of textureless grey boxes, so I appreciate the use of visual flourishes. However, the map is bright to the point of looking somewhat washed out. Some minor tweaks to the lighting would go a long way.

Yeah, playing with mat_disable_bloom 1 is a good thing on that map.
