MLG Community map! [Archive]

yourself.

11-14-2008, 07:50 PM

Well I was in forge wondering what to make. I had an idea that we the MLG community could work together to make an awesome asymmetrical MLG map for 8-person FFAs or MLG 4v4.

RULES
-You will be allowed to add up to 15 objects.
-You may delete up to 5 things if it is necessary.
-After you finish, put it in your fileshare and message the person after you with a link.
-They will download the map and repeat the process.
-Do not place spawns or weapons, that will be done at the end.
-Edit the description and add your gamertag after you finish (let people know that you helped make it.)(optional)

Side notes
-It would be nice if after you finish that you post a pic so others can watch the map progress. ( I will put the pics in the reserved post)
-Also, please save some doors for those who may want to geo-glitch something.
-Update! (In order for the map to come along faster, forgers will have 72 hours to complete their turn, otherwise the next person will go)

The list will be determined under the rule of first come first forge.

Do Not download it from the persons fileshare and skip somebody elses turn. You will not be allowed to have a turn if you are found doing so.

So....Who's next?

The List
-YourSelf.
-xCHAMPi0Nx
-Tigaer
-nicka
-DeathstarsOG
-SGT_CHAOTIC
-I Phade I
-PulseKiller
-TheEpicCiabatta
-ElitexGrunt

-This is meant to be a fun community project to see what we can make.

I like the idea, but I think you should be able to put more than 3 objects.
Say; you get to mess with it untill you get bored, then post it on here and list your name again for another turn after everybody else goes.

But, yeah put my name up on the list AFTER the next person, cause I can't get on right now.. but it sounds fun.

I'll change the Limit to 15, I think that that number is large enough to let people do something cool while not letting them build the entire thing.

As for me, i'm going to add a few things =)

Very nice.
I think being able to delete 5 or so objects would be good too, cause something might effect an idea you have and after alot of people get this theres going to be some things that need deleting.

Yeah, I was actually just thinking about that. I'll update it so 5 objects can be deleted if necessary.

Edit:

I have finished, whomever wants to go next just post saying so.

The idea sounds good. But How many people are you going to let work on it? How many people are going to even follow the rules? How many people wont just take the idea them self and call it there own? You Should get up to 16 people that want to help and then start a forge. But before you start the forge Go over some basic rules for them to follow while making the map. Brainstorm ideas during or before the forge. The idea is good but doing your way just ask for disaster(Not Trying to be rude just stating the obvious). My idea is different, and you are free to do with it what you want. Good Luck with this.

9th Spot!

yourself.

11-14-2008, 11:02 PM

As of now, there will be 10 people working on it. once those 10 are filled, then a new 10 will be started and those who were in the original 10 may get another turn.

I dont think that anybody is going to take the map and claim it as their own, not only will we have this thread as proof but the transfer process will look like this
A sends a message to B with a link to his file share
B confirms after downloading
A removes from fileshare

That way a minimal number of people will be able to download the unfinished version.
I completely understand what you mean by working together and brainstorming, but I feel that not knowing what the other people are thinking ( to a certain extent ) can lead to a very fun, and hopefully competitive asymmetrical map.

CW-Regret

11-14-2008, 11:13 PM

It can be fun but how exactly are you going to know what people placed what on the map? Maybe you should download the map first b4 next person, to check to make sure nothing of someone's got deleted. It makes since to do that.

yourself.

11-14-2008, 11:45 PM

I asked that everybody post a picture after they finish.
As for deleting things, as tigaer said, there may be something that will conflict with an idea you may have. They are not allowed to delete more than 5 things and they must use good judgement when deleting something.

those who dont follow the rules will be forbidden from this project and any possible future projects. ( the last rule about entering your gamertag is optional)

Put me on the list somewhere near the bottom of the first 10. I have some idea's but I'd like to see what's going on with the map first and whatnot. I'm not the most effective forger (cant do geo-glitching accurately) but I do have a good concept of map design.

Pick a number, you know how to geo-glitch and interlock and everything?

I Phade I

11-15-2008, 05:06 AM

spot 2 is open, but you said you would like the map to be more put together, so the best I can give you is 7th.
If you dont feel comfy with geo-glitching, I would reccommend that you either pratice or work on something that will not require much geo-glitching (maybe aimed more towards the center of the map). I would like this map to have as little nicks and bumps as possible to keep it competitive.

Yep thats what I figured. I can inter-lock cleanly and whatnot, just not geo-glitch. But yea I figured I would try and do some smaller things to tweak the map, and maybe create some nice idea's for "blank spots".

yourself.

11-15-2008, 05:28 PM

Alright, well there are still 3 spots to fill.

11-15-2008, 11:34 PM

#2 plz and how are we going to determine the boundries of the map????
anyways GT: no i in team br

PulseKiller

11-15-2008, 11:55 PM

I will take latest spot available if I may

Also... are the pieces used to block off the rest of foundry included in the 15?

yourself.

11-16-2008, 01:21 AM

No, I don't think that blocking it should count for the 15. Only block it if necessary tho.
As for how much foundry to use, try to stay within the squared part of foundry.

I will update the list and send #2 the map tomorrow, I'm on my iPod and it would be too much of a hassle.

I see your first pic and i count 7 or 8 items. Can we do less than 15 as well, or does it have to be 15 exactly? Just seams like you only did about half of your share. (trying to give you a hard time)

Yea, you may do less than 15. I will finish my share in round 2. Trying to give me a hard time. pssh

I really like this idea! Then maybe you could get a really good forger to go over it and polish it up and make sure everything is ok :) I really like the idea though!

Why I would be delighted to go over it and polish it up lol
I'm fairly certain that the things that are unnecessary or bumpy, somebody will delete along the road.

You should have probably added a deadline so lets say you have 48 hours to do your part and pass it on or 72 hours from the time you recieved it.

yourself.

11-26-2008, 05:26 PM

Yeah, i'm going to pm nexn. Since the rule is starting today, He will be given a day or two to respond before the timer starts.

Effective now. (11/26) You will have 3 days (72 hours) to complete your turn. Otherwise you will be skipped.

Yo yourself, i talked to Nexn earlier today i know he has been on but i also know he's going to Texas tomorrow so i don't know how that will all work out. You're gunna want to talk to him soon. If he deos give up his spot if possible i would like to jump in on this and help out. Anyways message me when you know what's going on with this.

1. Yourself will sign you up to round 2
2. If someone messes it up i will challenge them to Greenhouse 1v1 and pwn them. Then i will make an embarassing montage of it.

Only the people working on it will be able to see it before release. Hopefully those people will be up for testing also. =)
If they mess up... well, we will then have to track them down and give them a nuggie.

dont worry the next person could just delete it

also does it count as a new object if you geo glitch something that was already placed or move it around

yourself.

12-21-2008, 08:03 PM

Removing it and replacing it with another object would. If you merely re-do it so there are no bumps, then no.

Oh its cool brah, I thought Nexn was up next? Yourself, you should keep doing these community maps after each one is finished, just use this thread and change the list of people working on it, but post the finished map in it's own thread. I wanna get in on this :-D
