Extremely fun map!
I loved the custom movement and collision systems!!!
Perhaps you should turn the turn rate.
Some vehicles (like the meat wagon) dont have movement animations for some reason, is it supposed to be like this?
5/5

Thanks wereguy2.

The problem with the movement is, that you cant use turn rates wich time aint 0.00, beacause if you move, the turning is aborted.
Also, cant make the animations play for some reason, and animation aint shown for any vehicle. :/

I will see if i can fix it in next version.

+ Cinematic
1 - 10 points on camera work
1 - 10 points on dialog
1 - 10 points on music and or voice acting
- Cinematic
Object editor work
-------------------------------------------------
That equals 100 points max.
To get a Hive grade over 1/5 at least 50% of the 80 (Triggered map) or of the 100 (Cinematic map) points is needed. That means at least 40 or 50 points. However if a map gets rated over 1/5 by me, that doesn't mean that I will imidietly vote it to be approved.

Originality: 8 points
When someone mentiones a vechile map you would think how unoriginal is that? Well it isn't and it is fun.

Object editor work: 6 points
Good, could be improved more.

Scripting: 2 points
Not good. I experienced quite some problems, like in the sheep arena I hit the sheep and it just blocked my tank there.

Terrain: 3 points
Not much of a terrain. This map would realy need a bit better terrain.

Bug Free: 2 points
As I said:

- Sheep bug
- Movement animations
- Meat wagon corpse ability

I didn't manage to find any more of them but you should fix it asap.

Gameplay/Fun Factor: 8 points
Good, great. Me and my friend enjoyed ourselves. It was fun and fresh. Not much maps can be considered to be this good and you managed to make not so original a theme good and interesting.

Lag: 10 points
No lag.

Proper submission and crediting: 9 points
Good, the one point it lacks are images attached to post.

In overall: 48 / 80
-----------------
Interesting map that I didn't except to be this fine. However you should work on this things before this could get near approval:

- Bug fixes
- A bit of terrain improvement

Also you could narrow the camera field to the each arena when in it. You know the camera bounds options? So that the minimap shows only the field you are in currently.

For the hive grade: 2/5 I suggest this map for: No Vote
+ Rep

You should improve this map, update it frequently, fix bugs and my vote will go for approval and even a better grade then 2/5.

Good Luck, bounty hunter2

Wait, the sheeps blocked you? That never happened before... How did it block you? Messy way (keep getting moved into it, and back) or Good way (Stops vehicle)?

With the corpse abillity, you mean that the animation doesn't show, or that the Special abillity is hard to hit with?

I know the problem with terrain, the sucky thing is, that it is very hard to make good terrain, that also works good as an arena.

Thanks for the rep and input.

The sheep blocked me in a messy way, that made my screen go wild. Into it and back and repeating the action. I wasn't going fast to the sheep.

With the corpse abillity, you mean that the animation doesn't show, or that the Special abillity is hard to hit with?

I will have to recheck this. However I think that the ability didn't work correctly. Maybe it was a mistake by me.

This is a realy important part of the map. It is hard, but if you are not up to it, try finding a terrainer.

You are welcome on rep and input.

ill check the sheep block,
I think you just missed that The Meatwagon special abillity is very hard to hit with, im trying to find an easier solution, but its not easy :/

Wich other problems did you find with the scripts since it only was 2/10?
And what could i make better in the Object editor?

Dont be offended, im just trying to make the map better

Edit: Do the bug happen to you again? because it works fine for me :/
Also, was it Steam tank or Obsidian Tank you used?

just change tileset to AShenvale and you can't do a bad terrain anymore.

 

[Lord_of_sausage]

Any Personal Comments?
The terrain wasn't good, but this map is remarkable in every other way.
