Dead Last - A Creative Take on Infection

Post by mxrider108 »

Description:

I had this idea come to me a while back, and I knew it had to happen. Valhalla was my map of choice for several reasons, but unfortunately it's forge palette is rather limited. Thus, I turned to something on every map: invisible walls.

I suppose the best way to explain this map is to show you the diagram I drew after the idea originally came to me:
Image

As you can see, the humans are trapped in a floating cage of invisible walls. They are only given enough room to move around, and they can snipe out at the zombies down below (since you can shoot through invisible walls).

The goal for the zombies, however, is to make it through the forest to the beams of light shining down below the cage. Once they touch the beam of light they will be mancannoned up and into a teleporter, and ultimately inside the humans' cage, for a close-quarters battle that is in their favor :lol: .

Here is the gametype information for you to ponder:

Code: Select all

Humans:
- Starting weapon: Sniper Rifle
- Gernades: None
- Active Camo: Poor
- Remaining traits set to standard.

Zombies:
- Starting Weapon: Sword
- Speed: 150%
- Damage Resistance: 50% (Killed in one sniper shot)
- Gernades: None
- Weapon Pickup: Off
- Remaining traits set to standard.

The red areas indicate where the invisible walls are.

Antennas on the floor indicate the area is blocked off by invisible walls.

Nice, I played it with a few people, but couldn't get a big party together. What tag are invisible walls under?

Invisible walls are under [bloc] with the names "wall_l, wall_xl, wall_xxl, and wall_xxxl." Then you also have invisible boxes with similar sizes, under the same class, but with the prefix "box."

Finally got round to playing the map and it is fantastic! Great job on it!

Just a few things I noticed while playing. I spotted one or two floaty trees (which doesn't really matter but never mind). But the main thing I noticed while playing is you can grenade jump over the invisible wall at the back. If you stand down one of the "alleys" or gaps or whatever you call them in the human spawn area you can stand along the back invisible wall and grenade jump over making the map not work if people abuse this.

Thanks a lot for the feedback! Grenade jumps shouldn't be much of a problem if you play with my gametype though, because the humans don't spawn with any grenades! However, I have heard other ways of getting out of the base (which involve teammates and jumping), so I am planning on adding another level of invisible walls to 100% prevent this. I think I'll do that now actually...

The gametype is on my file share and there is a Bnet link in the first post. The map, however, you are going to need some sort of transfer device to get. If you really don't want to pay for one you can just use a SATA cable from your HDD to your computer.
