As there is no thread or seperate section for this post your mapping requests here! (Posted as some mappers need ideas of what to map)
I already have a potential female voice actor, but I'll add you to the list. There are a number of ways to divide it up.
The scaling of Empires physics will probably mean that surfing will be incredible. Do want. I think we need more conquest-type maps which aren't so reliant on potentially dummy commanders. Besides, it's usually easier to work out balance on conquest maps. We need more descending underground.
I demand a race-track type of map, maybe something in conquest-acarde style NF and Be have both a separated terrain, where they can get one or two refs and build a VF. part of their terrain is a giant metal gate, which opens once both teams have an APC/jeep on the startline, which is the opening button for the giant gate, then both teams APCs race trough a huge wasteland, nobody could take on foot and then reach the final battlefield with loads of refnodes, hidings and places to set up a new base. maybe there should also be an event on the final battlefield that insta-kills the starting base of the oposing team, thinking about a flag the team has to capture to start that event. I love my silly idea, leaving the problem of where to fit the CVs into that map.. :D
I'd give a try on a crazy map like that myself, if mapping HL2 wouldnt be so pain-in-the-ass workintensive. I could do a map like I sugested in 20 minutes in BF42 :D (I know this doesnt belong here and I will maybe be flamed, because everybody loves the mapping style of Hammer)
Everyone I know hates hammer more or less, but the hate is always there. Thats the main cause why I didn't bother to learn mapping.
