WIP - Road to Engelen(2) (My 1st map)

[Chap]

Hello guys. :)

Here I'm going to show you a couple of screenshots of my first map. Like the title says, it's not finished, since I started 3 days ago with it.

The map is about a little village called Engelen located in Holland (...yes, I live in Engelen myself. What a coincidence! :eek:). It's a very green and forestfull place, and so the map is. It's just... I think there are a thing or 2 missing in my map, since everything looks the same.

Well, judge by yourself. Here are the screenshots:

Please rate it and help me improve my map! :D

Looks great, Urban maps are my favourite and this one seems to have a good mix of the both, keep up the good work :)

3/5 Considering it isnt finished yet and the screen shots dont do it too much justic:p

nice screenies, but there aren´t much to see on them ;)
an overview and some screenshots showing a bit more would be nice.

That's the problem, there isn't much more (different things) than this. :p

But uhh, what should I add at those little 2-house villages? It's so empty, but I really don't know what to add.

Ahh... two houses isn´t a village, it´s just two houses ;)
But we can´t really see much on those screnshots, you are just showing us tiny bits of the map, you are making the screenshots in WB so just move the camera higher and take a shot showing larger pieces of the map and eventually a shot with the whole map.
The work you have done so far looks really nice but we can´t see much of it.:eek:

Each Village should take up at least a quater of the map if its a 2v2 map I think they should probably either both be an equal distance away from each players HQ therefore neither team gets a tactical advantage.

You want about 6-8 Buildings minimum to make up a nice village, then check out where you place the houses, i.e. set them up so they have a nice firing arc down the road that leads into the village if they place an MG squad in the building. Just little things like that can make all the difference:)

I like the urban maps too.
And if you really got nothing else to cover up your map with i'd say to make a farm somewhere in a corner. A big field with haystacks or something, to fill the map a little bit.
