Nah this one is going to be fun. Lots of water but its spread out nicely.

Levels > Blast Zone > Badlands

so far imo, Badlands should not be put in at all though.. no offense nachos, it just didn't play out well at all

by **weekend_nachos** » Mon Jul 16, 2012 7:49 pm

badlands need fixing and it will be fine. ive emailed the devs to see if things can be adjusted. well see what happens haha

Liquified, must you block the lakes and ferries? i know you're doing the whole rebel im cool thing to continue to have everyone hate on you or whatever, but idk what youre trying to achieve by doing that.

waits for a typical predicable response from you. :eating:

It was enjoyable until it got super dry, where's lefty??? :shrug:

how could there possibly be a ferry in every lake. This map is going to be hell in tournaments.

I didn't play yet so I may be wrong and maybe they specifically put a ferry in every lake (hopefully)

Anyone gotta SS? Can't play right now.

Ferry placement seems to be an issue in all the maps. It worries me a little. Hopefully they aren't stuck in the 1x1 water spots when Waters comes around.

I really haven't liked this map, easy to navigate spots go dry fast. Where as most maps are Mainly easy to navigate areas, this is not. It's a challenge, just taking some getting used to.

Worst map yet imo... playing on a map where 30-40% of it is inaccessible is fuckin lame.. how did this win a ph?

and weekend I blocked off 4 ferrys and took over the top right lake mainly because I wasnt really actively playing in the field, just wanted to rack up an hour or two in time. Also, I felt like hoarding what little fuel was in the water to begin with because the rest of the pathetic map was extremely dry. Less time crying on forums more time playing. I mean it only took you about 30 minutes to unlock it why come and cry about it?

by **weekend_nachos** » Mon Jul 16, 2012 10:21 pm

Just a waste of productive time, if you wanted to use up the fuel coulda just left the ferries be and just pph with kids. why waste time doing stuff like that then complain that the maps accessible when youre adding to it? Logic though.

Obviously the devs see something in the maps i made regardless of the community seeing it or not. dont ask me, email them.

cool story bro

by **Nameless** » Mon Jul 16, 2012 10:38 pm

I like the map. Didnt play more than a half our but I like it. There is a serious issue with some water area not being accessible. I was in for 30 mins and ran out of extra radars twice trying to fill. One was after being raided the other was after raiding phoenix.

My opinion is this. Lets play lets test, then let there be adjustments to perfect some of the maps that need it or just put them in the corner and move on.

Ive yet to see it dry up like everyones claiming, the only dry part ive come across is filling on equipment, that seems to spawn more so in water. As for fuel this really has no different feel to me than playing desert or rocks for that matter, actually i feel rocks has gotten way more dry than this map. Castles, Ice, apps and ill agree Badlands got really dry but Blast Zone doesnt come close to those. And if youre in a dry spot theres no rule against getting the fuck out of there to somewhere where its wetter for you to fight back. Dry in one area rule of thumb is head to the other side. Theres minimal obstacles in the way outside of water. Everyone just wants to hate without even attempting having fun or thinking.

Employing new strategies for each map should come as a thrill. Like i said before everyone wants it to be easy and mindless, thats boring to me. Tact and strategics make it fun, like the adrenaline of knowing how many shots you can take to get as low as possible in a raid without using shields but having just enough to teleport. Live a little. I can already tell what maps will be hated and praised based on everyones attitudes lol.

I had an easier time playing badlands. Of course - there weren't many oranges helping out yesterday. Blast zone is a tough one though. I found 4 lakes the size of screen or larger that were just locking up equipment. No ferry. Only chance is slow and tedious obstacles which leaves you exposed. For me it's been:

Levels >> Badlands > Blast Zone

Excited for more new worlds. Levels has been by far the better map to date. Once again nachos nothing personal. The map LOOKS nice. It has fun elements. But all those pools are just dead space. A lot of time has to be wasted to clean them or the map just gets more and more dry.

by **eldawg51** » Tue Jul 17, 2012 7:38 am

Even though I haven't played Levels yet, I agree with this critique.
