Crystal Crater - new Supreme Commander FaF map available

Postby arhurt » 15 May 2020, 01:23

quick and dirty new map supposed to be a low-resource micro focused duel. 5km x 5km to use my extreme crystal crater environment idea.

I'll maybe take a personal project of making a 5km x 5km for every biome type just to explore the environments and props available.

Map name is Crystal Craters on the vault.

Thanks Anihilnine! I've made some updates to it after getting some feedback. Sadly no high-rank play on it yet, so I don't know if it's a good choice for ladder or not. I'd love to get some replays on it to evaluate!

Here are the changes done to open up more space for building (green areas)

And the actual map layout as it stands:

Any feedback is welcome, thanks for looking!

Hello arhurt,

i am impressed by your AI waypoint markers.
There is a good amount of them present, and they are well placed!

How it looks, when an AI is enjoying your Waypoints: :mrgreen:

as a ladder player I would probably like to see some outlying mexes to raid. Theres only enough mass for 3ish land factories. There is kind of nothing to do on this map except get gun.

sounds like you are aware of that though and are going for a unique lowmass playstyle
