i was wondering if the front zone area of Caverns will be made?

[Emilia]

If the single player is going to be made, then the whole of Caverns will need to be built also.
I'm not sure of having the frontzone as a separate map for multiplayer though. I think it should just be giant Caverns map. Even when I play the map we have now, it feels very small to me, even though it isn't.

There are big changes in-store for 4.2 Caverns. Its a new map by our standards. FZ will be made if we decide to create the single player mode. But for multiplayer, the front zone would be pointless. Its literally a one-line, path. Way too linear for Multiplayer.

I think the frontzone would be perfect, and it needs to be in the game, i really dont think that the map is that linear.

[Jeron [SharpSh00tah]]

I think you should take another look at the frontzone layout before the only, one lane, huge game play busting, circular walkway that connects the FZ and BZ

Would only make sense to put it in there for SP.

It's to linear and also to small to be a map on it's own.
Adding it to the BZ would be the only option, but for that it would have to be
changed a lot with additional paths and stuff to improve the flow.
But the distance between the FZ and BZ level is to high to even considder this.
(Remember the giant cave with the spiral walkway?)

Look at runway, only one way to go, and its in the game.

Lol just wait until its deleted and restarted.

Again?

[Jeron [SharpSh00tah]]

Yup, I can do it way better

Plus all the other ways to go.
It's also not a single narrow twisty claustrophobic corridor.

[namajnaG]

Runway is an open area, You can move around everywhere, And there are a few tunnels, Whilst Caverns FZ is just... Two corridors with little to no space.

Every map can be adopted to a MP setting. However, it takes a lot more creative work. Fitting it to the original, while keeping the theme of how this would transfer to a somewhat realistic feel of a similar setting.

Train is..... well a train, but as you can see, there are plenty of ideas for it.

Dam, Frigate, and more are same, but all have a lot of ideas how to make them work.


Caverns_fz could be adopted like the main staircase in Silo. You would get the iconic spiral, while having exits and rooms off of it on different levels. Just one small idea. Its a lot of work, and takes a lot of testing/compiles of hundreds different versions to get a idea fully layed in stone.

I'm having an hard time deciphering this image... :/

[terps4life90]

Overhaul it like the runway, in the original n64 runway there was no downstairs or hangars you could run into. Add shit to it
