What do you guys think so far? Also use constructive criticism, give reason why you like it, or hate it.
I really like the green. At 0:32, was that skybox or part of the city?
Looks quite pretty. Can't wait for it to be released!
[QUOTE=Rubs10;30996284]I really like the green. At 0:32, was that skybox or part of the city?[/QUOTE] Ya, theres parts of the map tucked inside itself for secret building places and such. And that was part of the city, not the 3D skybox.
this is a very rousing map
Excuse me but i can't understand why you made passable brushes for doors.
Looks really blocky, and some textures are misaligned or generally crappy looking.
But hey, at least it looks more like an actual city than most maps.
The only thing I dislike about this map is that there are no trees in the skybox! Other than that this map looks awesome! I will definatly download it.
spend some time aligning the textures and making the lights more interesting (aka not white). other than that it looks fine. nice work
Why did u make the doors like that?
Reminds me of Bigcity, in a way. One could say it was Bigcity before the current Bigcity

Hahahaha, you're so fucked up.
My god what a strange town you must live in. The one moment you are driving around in your new car you take a turn left and suddenly a car wash appears out of nowhere.
And tell me if you want to go through a door, do you just bump your head in it and wait till you are through it? Because that might give you severe brain damage, given that you have one of course.
Hey man i love it, but you definitely should include nodes like big city, that will boost your dls
simple DOF post-processing doesn't make a map good, my friend

maybe he just wanted to enchance the aesthetics of the pictures

it has potential
[editline]17th July 2011[/editline]
work on the atmosphere: it's super bland. streets aren't always straight like that either, curve em slightly. work on the lighting. get stuff at different levels, in a way that looking at the map from one point to another results in seeing the streets going slightly higher, getting that reality feeling since no city is at a plane level except cities based on deserts.
[editline]17th July 2011[/editline]
there are no signs, no sidewalk strips for parking/no-parking (white/red), no traffic lights, no mail boxes, etc. as i said above, it's very blocky, one of the factors that make it look unrealistic. textures aren't aligned properly, some windows stop halfway through the corner. again, as i said, it has potential, but you just have to work very, very hard on it for it to look nice.

Seems like you don't know how to take criticism. Even though the post could have been more constructive he does have some points. The car wash is weirdly placed and is the size of a 2 lane road. And the door as passable brushes is very questionable as it makes no sense, unless you care to explain; I might be missing something to it, though I see no design or optimization reasoning behind it. I feel like the interiors are a bit bland in lighting and details. But I do like the outside and most of the textures. If you work on texture alignment it would look pretty cool
[QUOTE=oytal;31129254]Why did u make the doors like that?[/QUOTE]
My best guess would be that he hit the entity limit.
[QUOTE=jeimizu;31184818]My best guess would be that he hit the entity limit.[/QUOTE]
lol that map hit the entity limit? cute
one of the best large city maps ive seen so far.
hope you release it soon.
most of the buildings are just one big brush.
picture #5 for example:
look at the edge of the building in the middle, the window texture gets cut off.
[QUOTE=jeimizu;31184818]My best guess would be that he hit the entity limit.[/QUOTE]
func_brush is still an entity
[QUOTE=thealmightylol;31182731]Zomg guys im butthurt about this guys map ima rage n post about it sucking, im just a jealous shit face hahawhawawj[/QUOTE]
Really I have no clue what you are talking about. If I would be jealous, I would be jealous about antimony's catisland. Not your little block town here.
looks rushed
This reminds me of the film I Am Legend, because of the zombies running around.
[QUOTE=1 Duck;31205441]This reminds me of the film I Am Legend, because of the zombies running around.[/QUOTE]
But I Am Legend was about vampires, and they didn't go in sunlight :v:
But I am legend had no doors on half the buildings and you could see thru the windows on the outside and open the doors instead of walking thru them like Jesus.
Rushed map.
If anything I'm sure he just did passable brushes because if they were full door entities it would cause lag, assuming every building is enter-able.
