This to me is definitely a map that will need some tweeking, but We won't really know exactly how until we play on it!

The fact that the neutrals are low appeals to me. I hate maps with high neuts just to make it easier for the person with the best luck.

anyway, why don't you push the appropriate buttons and we'll all jump in on it lol

Nice work a.sub

I'm so happy to see how much work you've done...
The "put your name on a map" phase is only an old memories :)

This map has met all the requirements:

a. significant knowledge of graphics tools and techniques,
b. the willingness to consider and respond appropriately to critical feedback
c. the ability to make multiple changes based on ongoing feedback
d. a solid understanding of the Foundry standards and process.


Finally gameplay is the main theme of discussion, you have to work on it...i think it is the best way you can figured out the potential of this map.
Read once more here. ;)
Some strange things are still on the map...
Then, some links are only dead end or foolish ways, i try to explain better...why i have to pass throught "private avl" and have a -1 bonus when i can pass from laura and then thug and have a +1 bonus :?

Anyway, what a better place to discuss about gameplay than the main foundry?

I am pleased to issue this map the draft stamp on behalf of the foundry community

Welcome to the foundry proper =D>
Have a nice day

I think +1 is sufficient for Thugs. Maybe +2 per Three. So if you have three, you get 1+1+1+2. Make sense?

I DEFINITELY like the second Font

Maybe name one of the Cops Bag O'Donuts?

Any chance you could lighten the image up a touch? It looks a little dark to me. I love the design!

are there certain areas that are too dark or do you think it should be brighter in general?

Second one better, darker look is fine now! The AK47 are a little dark, but I can live with it!

Just make sure that Stash 6 name is all on the map, the 6 is out right now!

Good job though.

is major on there four times for a reason? is that a reference to something i should know? :-s

I'd say go with the first font, looks more like it's been written on. However, i'm not thinking the yellow color looks written on, so if you're feeling incredibly nit-picky, see if you can find a more pen or pencil or chalk or other writing utensil-like color? but only if you feel like it. Not really necessary.

As i think i've said before, one thing i love about this map is the darker color scheme, i feel like a lot of common maps are so bright that they start to feel a little washed out when my screen brightness is up. (no, i won't be more specific, i don't remember which maps made me feel that way...)

While i'm nit picking, the wood seems a bit red to me, could you turn that down in the hue-sat? just a bit less red. Though maybe i'm wrong. I just haven't seen a desk quite that shade. Love the woodgrain feel there, btw.

so the [plan was to duplicate every layer (with text) and rasterize it then apply a mask that would make it seem "chalkier"
how ever i could not make a mask that was small enough to make the text (which is thin) seem chalky without making it illegible or look more like poor quality :?

I also like the thug upgrade, but will that make a player too powerful if they just seek out thugs? and what did you decide about starting positions?

well i doubt it since i will prolly make the thugs neutral 2 to start with
speaking of which
i think thugs will be a neutral 3 to start with
and cash/alarms will be a neutral 1
all vault doors will be a neutral 3 or 4 im not sure
thoughts?

is this a conquest-style map like age of realms? can u add to the opening post a map that shows the starting neutrals?

Update first post with new map, it still has thugs called NAME. I reckon the name is a bit iffy. Have you thought of Bank Heist or just Heist!
