Why I don't make maps

First off, I'd like to say that there's no rule of how much time and effort you have to put into your map in order to create a good CTF Map. I built Canadian Fort within 3 hours and without any knowledge of WorldEdit (not saying that it is a good map).

As someone who built over 10 accepted CTF Maps, I know what it feels like to get this hate, but the mirth of seeing my own work getting accepted and played on was always more important to me than the hate of a few people, and that's what you should focus on, in my opinion.

I do not agree with the opinion of some people about this thread, though: just because the CTF community has always been quite rude towards new maps and their creators doesn't justify them to continue like that. Talking **** about a map doesn't help anyone, it just makes you look like a jealous person. If you actually want to help, give constructive criticism, or improve the quality of the CTF rotation by building an own "good" CTF map.

Personally, I didn't mind your map. You gotten farther than I ever have. The most I've done it take Tibetan Seclusion and change the coloring. Even then, I didn't submit it.

 

LOL

 

Hi Coquelin~ First, congrats that your map is on rotation. I hope comments like those won’t stop you from making maps. It’s not an easy task to make a map. It’s good that some players give you some advice for future improvement on your map. But for some players who just complain about the maps without supplying adequate criticism, hmmm.. maybe they have plan to make their own perfect map! But please keep making maps ! It’s a privilege that they choose your map!

 

Wrong :3 There is a perfect map! A map where its just the void. Anyhow Coquelin I think you're map is great! Don't let bad comments like them put you down. They're just the suckers who can't accept that they're bad at CTF in that map. Their pride is more important so just ignore them Hope you make more maps!

 

I'm fine with the InfraQ map, but idk if the map I'm thinking of is InfraQ. I can never seen to remember the maps by there names (for the most part)

 

rip LOL

 

It was a different story for the Sabotage server. When we logged in , all players were in the wilderness map so we ended up just talking . Will remember that experience for a long time...

 

@Coquelin ~There is Sabotage rn[ GreatLordOz is the head admin]

 

How to get banned from the forums

 

but it's thess so nothing happens yay!

 

I notice that there were some threads about Sab before so I thought it would be okay if I can help some players about it. We help each other on the forums don’t we? Btw, thank you for the info. Very informative!

Thank you Lego~

 

It's not just you, that's the kind of **** that gets thrown at me when I attempt to calmly play a single game. Now mind you my reputation here is horrible, because when I was a regular I was a complete dick and was very salty/cocky, all around immature, but I regret it and am sorry to those who I pissed off. Don't feel bad ))

Edit: didn't notice date, can't delete this post, oh we'll sorry didn't mean to bump it.

 

Speaking from a position of experience with map making, not everyone will like your map. That's okay. You don't need everyone to like your map for it to be successful.

Most of the time, players giving criticism have no experience with map making or CTF (I promptly ignore those players). When others who have experience with map making give you criticism, don't view it as a reason to never make another map. View it as a challenge to do better on your next one.

 

the trick is to rework blackout then nobody can complain :^^^^^)
