YoYo Rast Island
« on: December 16, 2007, 06:44:02 PM »
Very challenging in the driving department. The lap nav is a really satisfying when you get the hang of it. After a while I was hitting the laps around 135 and it was VERY fun to drive. I set up a server for team race to see how it would be with more people and I didn't get many bites...kicked a few and unfortunately banned one person. I'm still interesting in seeing how it might be with racers focusing on racing. I set the vehicle spawn time as short as possible...once you lose your hog over an edge chances are you are not going to fetch it...anwho -   2c

P.S. Spawns are a little weird, but once you learn the path it's not any worse than some maps

Makes a great map for snipers no shields. Play free for all is the most fun I think. Gives you that ability to make your armor blend to your hiding spot. There are SOOOO many hiding spots that this map is absolutely awesome for it. Plus you get to learn how to sneak around undetected while trying to get back to your perch after you die :P
Currently traveling through the unknown times in my life. I will be back when i find myself.

Thanks for the sig BFM_H@ngm@n

YoYo Rast V2 beta - Looks like the jump to the top of the garage to turn around to score may be easier...

Nevermind...unfinished - no navs...no hogs....no fun...( y am I always the last to know?)

the only problem is when you die you have to start over from the begining there are no shortcuts to get back to your nav

actually there is, if you go at half speed and spin as MUCH AS POSSIBLE off of the left side of the garage on the inside, you can land near the 5 or 6th nav or whatever and its a shortcut to the rest of the map :P

I think it looks cool, though I've never palyed it. I've heard from people it's annoying. But I think there should be some challenges in race. Maybe make it only 10 laps per team instead of 15 if it takes too long.

I tried it out (the one and only CE map I've ever experimented on) and thought it was fun once I started getting used to it. The worst part is that I had to start back at the beginning of the map if I fell off and died or something. It didn't seem like there were any shortcuts (like in Infinity--a big map--you can cross over at the intersection if you died on the other side); if you died, you had to follow the nav path to get back to next nav.

But it's a cool map!

It's one of those maps where it might be more fun with slightly fewer people so there is less contact and people dont have to constantly start over because they were killed. I will tell you though, this map is incredibly fun to drive, and it saddens me that people never seem to race on it.  :'(

This map, I agree, is a great map to race on, but the respawns take you far away from a vehicle.  So I say, that if this map would make it to the CE racing server, then I would suggest a modder should change the respawns or place vehicles at the respawns.

You can only fit 6 hogs in the garage though.
