    Moors
    Version: Beta 1
    By: [LoDw]Keef
    Concept By: ‡|JPL|‡ Deadpool

    Moors is a map filled entirely with rolling hills, with elevated planes scattered about on which to build bases. Moors offers intense vehicle combat and constant action. Moors is a high-adrenaline map for commanding with constant base switches and rushes.

    Initial Public Release



    Attention server owners, there are several material files accidentally included in the .rar file which you dont need to upload (they are allready packed into the BSP.) These are the 'Skybox' folder and 'Keef' folder files. Not going to hurt anything by uploading it, just take you longer to upload it all.

    Btw, don't judge it until you play it. Its cosmetics will always be a work in progress, but it is really fun (frustrating for comms though) and we had a lot of fun playing alpha 1 and 2 with lots of players on Nachos. I'm interested to see how this will play on G4TC.

    Missiles spammers dream, I'd say that it should be biased towards nf. Gotta play it later. But the idea is awesome and I'm looking forward to play it.

    several it seems, people also keep coming to us with requests for help on one thing or another. However this map didnt take me long to build at all, deadpool gave us this concept on saturday morning and I basically had the map finished that evening, did alpha tests etc then.

    I don't think it looks at all like duststorm - it certainly doesn't play like duststorm, that's for sure. It's way more intense than that. :)

    Why less resources? The resources on a1 were too low, you could hardly afford to do anything or research very much because you swap bases so much that you're constantly spending resources on new refs, raxes, even VFs and radars.

    In a1, all res nodes were 1.5 res, now they're all 2 res.

    We had like 15000 res at the end, even if we constantly spamed tanks on the main server.

    the main server has 64 people which would've made the 2x res nodes act as 6x-10x, and if you're covering the whole map, you'd be getting a shit ton of resources. What you have to count on is holding 3-5 res nodes

    and not all servers can run or are willing to run 64 player servers
