Promising Beta Maps

[Fuzz]

I was thinking we could use a thread for all the beta maps out there that have potential to become great maps provided we test them thoroughly.

Naturally I will add more maps to this list as I find good beta maps. Either they get released fresh, reemerge on forums by posting or simply by browsing through old threads. I only link to threads because betas have a way of being updated now and then. You will find downloads and screenshots in these threads.

restrict ftw

 

[Cr4zyB4st4rd]

Ooohhhhh

I feel honored

 

[UBerserker]

Restrict and Oriens look nice.

 

[Fuzz]

Glad you like them. Added 3 more beta maps to the first post of this thread.

 

[Ignotium]

I like the way Alex has improved his skills to the point of getting to do Oriens

 

[Slainchild]

Only 2, maybe 3 of those seem promising to me.

 

[Fuzz]

My personal favorites among them are Restrict, Egitim and Pressure 3. SpaceNoxx is kind of fun. Depending on how much they are willing to redo in the other maps, they could turn out good after all. Not every new map I see is in that list anyway.

 

[Cr4zyB4st4rd]

In that case Fuzz put some feedback in my thread pwease

And @ Slain, which ones are those

 

[Fuzz]

Your map is awesome. I will have to play it several times if I am to find something off with it.

Well, bots don't jump for the UDamage. The walls of the UDamage basement have straight corners and edges, you could smoothen them. Other than that... let's play again...

The long fence two floors above the Shock Rifle ends abruptly on both sides.

Needless to say, this map is very good already.

 

[Cr4zyB4st4rd]

Cheers, yea, was going to do alot more to the lower section, visually it's not all their yet, but it will hopefully play the same.

Ill check those two fences. As for the bots and the udmg i can't make them jump unfortunately, but atleast they don't bug out and stare at it hours on end

What about DM-Propyl Beta

 

[Fuzz]

I can't find it on FileFront. I haven't tried it.

Added two more maps to the list.

 

[Fuzz]

Some forums have very strict policies against double posting. This probably ain't one of them. I am only posting again because there have been three more maps added to the list since I posted initially.

I found BlackRock and added it to the list. It's a remake of the Quake 4 map The Fragging Yard 1.1.

 

[Ignotium]

blackrock

 

[Larkin]

I don't consider a post a few days after the last one a double post, anyway, Egitim is final and has been for a few days. It should probably be taken off the list.

 

[Fuzz]

Added Haze, this is a really good map.

 

[Fuzz]

Added Q3DM7 and Tourney4.

 

[Fuzz]

Not every beta make it to this list. Those new Quake III Arena remakes are really good maps. I play them like regular maps already.

Beta versions are important. Some mistakes are still discovered in full versions because players don't care much for betas. Please test the maps, you will be the first to learn tomorrows popular arenas.

 

[NeoNite]

The Dm7 conversion looks very depressing :/
