DB-Altract by E.Thomephone

Pros:
- Very good frames on my card @ 85 fps on low (Ati Radeon 8500)
- Nice outlay of map except for a few areas
- I like the screen, but it could get in the way. Maybe put two screens opposite sides?

Cons:
- Few radar errors, needs adjustment.
- Blue wall vs. Red wall is not symetrical. Hence, some can say its better to play on one side that the other. Better to have a level playing field. The wall behind the blue goal, if you shoot it above, it will angle off to the side because of the beleveled surface, whereas on the other end, it won't because of no beleveled surface (unless I missed it).
- Music would be nice

Rating - 3.8/5.0 :p

I can recommend this map to bazzi for a VO league map if it is fixed up. $\o/$

Nice work.

You have the default game set as BonusPack.xMutantGame

People won't like that the fan wall is flat but the other wall has objects that can deflect the ball.

The frame rate is a little low for most players.

I do like the map. A little more work and this can be a very fine map.

Some music would be nice to create atmosphere, like level music, doesn't have to be loud, wat you think the sounds is in cube is?

don't work for music because db have his own music by default.

But thx for feedbacks, I will fix all that crap and release a second beta

You'd be amazed at the effect music can have the atmosphere of a level.

- I remove the walls panels where so the 2 walls are know the sames.

- Changed some texturing

- Fixed the radar

- Some textures are no more blurry

- A better optimisation

Much improved FPS. Very nice.

I would make the grates above the blue goals - inlets. They would look better I think. Use blocking volumes to fill the inlet and make the wall flat.

I don't like the screen. I think it's in the way of gameplay. I think you map is fine without it.

Work on some goal effects.

Nice work.

Arma: gg but I dont think any1 wants to play with music (any1 in their right minds)

Anything new.

I do, though occasionally I switch it off and put Winamp on. I have a music playlist just for DB.

O_o U *NEED* the sounds in db to react to them =/
Don't be silly
