:O

Downloading, hope it plays as well as it looks!

Hey thanks, finally some comments
Oh and is there a step-by-step on how to cook a map for PS3, and also make it available for download (Not sure if there's some special place PS3 users download or not?)

Map looks sweet, once you figure out the ps3 thing I'll try it out and give more opinions.

Thanks, when I get back from eating, I'll attempt the PS3 cooking.

I only had time for some quick impressions, but wanted to post so that hopefully more people would give her a try. =)

Extremely professionally done. Runs at 62 FPS cap the entire time. Bots seem slightly better at it than I am. Absolutely love what you've done with the vehicles: this map really lets each of them shine, and I must say its the first map where I haven't wanted to throttle the nightshade.

I look forward to playing this map much more. Once again, great work sir.

[Bret Hart]

Thank you very much Harmatia, that makes me feel great =)

Thank you very much Harmatia, that makes me feel great =)

Thank you for putting the time into making it.

So much for doing HW... this map is amazing. I can't wait until this ends up online-- definitely my favorite custom warfare map, and up there with the best of the stock maps. How is this only a beta?

I upped the bots difficulty a bit and they were doing a great job defending their core... so I took a vulture in through the upper window and detonated it on their core for the win. So satisfying.

Hopefully I'll find something constructive to add while I enjoy it some more.

Edit: Having avrils in lockers really works for this map. On many others it would overpower vehicles to the point of uselessness, but the nature of this map makes it easy to get out of the path of an avril, and the choice of vehicles are pretty resistant. Vipers can get away fast, fury can shoot them down.... very well balanced.

Woah! Very nice
when the ps3 version is downloadable I'll be checking this out immediately. Looks amazing Great job keep at it.

How is this only a beta?

Better safe to have it as a beta then to have a full release with minor bugs / needed changes.

But thank you, I'm glad you think it should be a final release. I only need a photoshop expert to make me a mini-map image for the final.

Well, I got one error while cooking but I don't think it's anything big:

Warning, Map (WAR-ArticStronghold) references editor only content: 'StaticMesh EditorMeshes.MatineeCam_SM'! This will not load in-game!!

But the PS3 version is uploading now.

[NyghtcrawleR]

A custom mesh that wont load? idk

[Bret Hart]

Looks like it wouldn't load the cinematic mesh for the cameras, strange. But maybe someone with a PS3 can tell me if it works?
I've updated the first post with the PS3 version.

[ClockworkJB]

I must say, I thoroughly enjoyed that. Definently staying on my HD. The choice of vehicles was excellent, although I would still like to see a version with the classic Axon vehicles and also some of the alternate link setups.
