CTF 300K FrozenFrag

CTF 300K FrozenFrag

UT CTF - Medium, 6-12 players. Arctic Monitor base. Released December 2008.

Map #8 for Blito3's Annual 300k Contest, Nov-Dec 2008. Some sort of abandoned Arctic Glacier Monitoring Station, purchased by Liandri for the tournament! Look out the windows, man is it ever cold and frozen out there! Better keep running around shooting guns to keep warm! (There you go, the 30 second story :P)

This map was blocked out at the time of the 2006 Blito3 300K contest. It was more or less an alternative to the layout that became CTF-300K-ElectricDream, only longer and with more route options - it ended up too fat for 300k, and so I went with the smaller layout. This time round I removed some areas to shorten the distance between flags - I also removed walls to open up the flag room.

This was good because the map became smaller in filesize and also created a more intense fighting area for the FC.

You can have a good time 5 vs 5 against masterful+ bots - 6 vs 6 though, you'll have to work pretty hard, lol! Good map for sniping the enemy flag, quite fun until you get stormed by the enemy - the bots can use the side routes so you will not be able stand and snipe them all the time, at least they eventually came after me :)

Design, builds and tweaking took altogether maybe 6 hours. Gameplay's not bad - I like it 5 vs 5 against masterful bots. Might be really hard with people though... xloc skill a must!

Thanks to Blito3 for having the contest and to Tom_caT for testing the map. Music is Foregone from the game Unreal Tournament.
