[quote=Khuntza]Mirrored versions of Dustbowl, Gravelpit and Badwater Basin maps. The Concept: To take popular VALVe made maps from Team Fortress 2 and mirror them as acurately as possible to their originals. Right becomes left, left becomes right, giving maps that all TF2 players know like the backs of their hands a fresh take. The Result: You'll find yourself having to rethink every turn in a map that that you haven't found yourself lost in for up to 3 years.. It can really mess with your head while you adjust.[/quote] [img_thumb]http://forums.tf2maps.net/geek/gars/images/6/8/9/9/MirroredMaps_cp_lwobtsud.jpg[/img_thumb] [img_thumb]http://forums.tf2maps.net/geek/gars/images/6/8/9/9/MirroredMaps_cp_lwobtsud_2.jpg[/img_thumb] [img_thumb]http://forums.tf2maps.net/geek/gars/images/6/8/9/9/MirroredMaps_cp_tiplevarg.jpg[/img_thumb] [img_thumb]http://forums.tf2maps.net/geek/gars/images/6/8/9/9/MirroredMaps_cp_tiplevarg_2.jpg[/img_thumb] [img_thumb]http://forums.tf2maps.net/geek/gars/images/6/8/9/9/MirroredMaps_pl_retawdab.jpg[/img_thumb] [img_thumb]http://forums.tf2maps.net/geek/gars/images/6/8/9/9/MirroredMaps_pl_retawdab_2.jpg[/img_thumb] This sounds like good fun. Anyone know servers running these maps?
In what way are these mirrored? Do they flip it sideways, or make a massive flip by swapping RED and BLU spawns and control points? Looks interesting either way.
Interesting concept!
[QUOTE=Pocket Medic;26874635]In what way are these mirrored? Do they flip it sideways, or make a massive flip by swapping RED and BLU spawns and control points? Looks interesting either way.[/QUOTE] As you can tell by the screenshots, they are flipped sideways: the right door becomes the left door and son on. I can't wait to play this and get lost, put my sentries in the wrong place and whatever.
These are interesting, reminded me of Mario Kart straight away. Can't wait for 150cc mode.
I don't get it, what makes these maps special if it's just mirrored? I don't see how these maps would make anyone more interested in them just because it's flipped...

Try to imagine how much you would get lost playing that. For a new player, it's nothing special. For those who have been playing TF2 for 3 years, it's a totally new experience: it looks just like what you know, but it isn't.
That might actually be refreshing. I'd like to try it out at least.

It's not hard to realize that a certain area has turned from left to right or vice versa.
I want to see 2fort mirrored.
I played this on UKCS. It's confusing as shit.
These maps fuck your brains. edit: I think FPUK2 have these maps on rotation. [url]http://www.facepunch.com/threads/935804-Facepunch-Team-Fortress-2-server-v3[/url]
do eldi_tnemeveihca next
What the fuck? Where am I?
Wow, I never thought it would be this different. Just looking at the pictures hurt my head a bit.
I play on all three quite frequently, they're in my server's map rotation. It brings a huge rush of fun to the maps, gives them a fresh feeling.
Downloading them all, seems quite fun.
oh god imagine cp_leets
Those images are such a mindfuck.
Yeah FPUK#2 has these maps
I keep walking into walls on these maps. It makes it really hard to defend because you can't tell where the enemy is coming from anymore. :saddowns:
They look like entirely new maps from the screenshots. This is going to hurt my head a bit.
Yeah, played them for a few hours on my server, and I can tell you, it's not as confusing as you might think, because most of the time, the map looks [B]completely[/B] different and thus my brain said something like "ok dude don't use your badwater/goldrush/whatever reflexes"
I'm still not seeing why these maps would be confusing in the slightest...
It's such a small change, it shouldn't affect game play at all yet it completely confuses me.
I like the pictures because they give me a nice mindfuck.
[QUOTE=Chirno;26878177]I'm still not seeing why these maps would be confusing in the slightest...[/QUOTE] how about download then join a server with them It's another idea that's so simple people like you just whine because they didn't do that before It's like in TF2 emporium, where I lack a lot of creativity and think that everything simple and easy is done, then some guys puts a light bulb onto pyro's gasmask and it's damn amazing that concept of mirroring old maps and stuff is fucking amazing, and it feels like completely different map but you still have that feeling that you know where to go, you end in completely different place

Me and Anton will upload these maps to our server. I let you know when we're done.
