[Map] Pirate Panic [110+ Signatures!]

Brian4t8 · 09-04-2012, 05:34 AM | **Post: #1**

ARRRR, ME HEARTIES! Ye've been seekin' yer fortune in buried treasure an' untold riches?! Yeh' come to the proper place; this be PIRATE PANIC!

Please follow this link to get to the photo album containing the shots of the various other checkpoints.

This historical map takes place during the colonial era of the Caribbean, roughly 1500-1700, and is set in a prosperous port-town.

The Nationals start out at the Fort, labeled in red; the Royals start at the Docks, labeled in blue.

The two teams must fight to gain control of the three checkpoints on this map: Cave, Merchant's Post, and Town.

People may be concerned about BS in the cave area, but I have tried to alleviate this issue by making the ceiling extremely tall; the ceiling, though it may not seem this way, is probably 50-60 feet tall. You'll only really have to worry about BS if you're standing right next to the wall (which I've tried to keep to a minimum by including several bridges). The walls are also a good 80 feet apart usually. For graphics reasons, the cave is flat-roofed with some rock-formations protruding from the ceiling and from the floor.

Vegetation is very thick, as the town is situated on a tropic island. It is entirely up to EA/DICE/EAsy whether or not to keep the vegetation level as thick as it is in the shots I've provided. I mainly made it this thick because if I left the map relatively bare as most of the maps are, it would not look very appealing.

If you have any questions, please post them and I will do my best to answer them.

MY SUGGESTIONS FOR THIS MAP/LOOSE ENDS

The map itself makes my computer lag too greatly for me to be able to edit it any longer (I'm down to 7 FPS during the daytime and 5 during the nighttime), so I'll leave my suggestions for the map below.

NO vehicles; this map is intended to be an infantry map.
The three-masted ship at the Docks should have at least one accessible crow's-nest.
The lighthouse at the Docks (the tower on the western side of the structure near the docks), should have ladder access from the upper portion of the checkpoint.
Move the Fort area east further, so that it will be a closer to the rest of the map. As it stands in the map overview, it's far from most everything else.
Possibly add a second entrance to the cave closer to Town so that the flag is less of a "third wheel."
Perhaps have the cave raised 60 feet in elevation (moved to where the existing ceiling of the cave is), and have it curve towards Town, following the mountain range, as opposed to being straight; this would help with the second entrance. two roads would lead up to the cave (one on the west side of the cave, one on the south-east side of the cave), as opposed to it just opening up at sea-level.
Perhaps also have openings in the cave wall, large enough for people to fit though, which overlook the map, as opposed to the cave simply being closed off to the world, save for the entrance(s).
More for aesthetics than anything else, a waterfall, roughly the size of the one on Alpine Assault, flowing from the mouth of the cave on the west side.

If I think of anything else, I will add it to the list. User-suggestions will be placed below in the second post.

F.A.Q.

Several of you have asked about vehicles. Initially, I was thinking of spinning off the whole "Summer of Heroes" thing and adding a few props to make it look like a movie-set (cameras and the like), but as I began working more on this map, it became clear to me that this would not be modern at all. So, to answer this question: There are no vehicles on this map, and it's really not all that big. Everything is within manageable walking-distance.
