Flagrun

Name: Flagrun
Status: In Development

[ Development Update - 12/17/06 ]
Flagrun has been on a slow development cycle, and has been since starting. As one of the Trepids has stated in another thread, most new mappers have a sort of "mapper's block", like writers have "writer's block." I've gone through 100s of versions of the map, lost many textures and whole .vmf files. I admit to impotence, but I also admit to RL issues that get in the way of any activity at all.

I would still like to work on this for myself, for my own potential; but if anyone would like to get to working on their own, then go right ahead. I don't believe I will be able to live upto the greatness of some of the mappers here and that the end result will not be as good as I had hoped; at least while real life issues are so pressing and important.

o_groovyf · 03-04-2005, 08:22 AM

1 Flag in either base, 2 flags in tower in midfieed. Got to have all 4 flags in your own base to win

o_dirkpitt · 03-04-2005, 11:04 AM

That's the map i was first taught to bhop on! Brings back very fond memories. Take your time and make it look awesome!

o_osiris · 12-11-2005, 07:37 PM

What's going on with this map? Anything?

o_sobe green · 12-11-2005, 08:26 PM

I was wondering that myself. This was a fun pub map.

If you don't keep the "Stolen!" sound I will kill you. That has to be the funniest thing in TFC. It's completely retarded.

Jiggles · 12-12-2005, 12:02 AM

your team has STOLEN the enemy flag

o_deadly furby · 12-12-2005, 12:48 AM

Don't forget to add teleporters.....

i had a lot of fun on flagrun. i think if it had been made earlier in the lineage of TFC, it would've gained a lot more popularity

it'd be also nice to see casbah would look in FF. casbah had hl2 written all over it anyway

o_nezumi · 12-12-2005, 05:50 AM

Could you maybe make the flagroom a little less easy to defend? I always hated that map 'cause of how frustrating it was to get the flags from a well defended base.

I mean, not that it should be easy but the way the map stands getting the flags from the middle means pretty much more than anything.

Also, out of curiosity, has anyone ever played a competitive match on this map? I want to know what it would be like.

another thing about the flagroom that bothered me was how simple it looked. maybe they rushed it? seems like they spent the bulk of the time on casbah

Circuitous · 12-12-2005, 05:57 AM

Perhaps if you didn't have to walk through five miles of enemy territory to get near the flagroom, it'd be a little easier for offense.

o_sobe green · 12-12-2005, 06:12 AM

Quick note: Valve didn't make casbah. DaveJ did. The same guy who made de_dust.

yeah i figured it felt a lot differently than any other valve map (besides the asymmetry)

Yeah, it was actually an enjoyable map back in the days of uncapped bhop (or a server with the bunnyjump metamod plugin).

o_anshinritsumai · 12-12-2005, 07:16 AM

Yea, I'm still making the map. I've pulled a Duke Nukem Forever on it twice however, mainly because my brushwork was horrid. So far, this time it seems to be doing VERY well. Being that I'm never good with public releases or media, don't expect any for awhile; but for those of you that are interested in this map, rest assured that it is being worked on.

Just don't get your panties in a bunch.

you can normally get into the base easily..

Then when you get into the FR you get raped by 60 SGS
