Huge new map, 40+ hours spent | Forums

[CynteuxInfinitu]

I’m excited for you guys to check out my map, it's called Sweet Sleet Basin. I spent the over 40 hours ignoring my girlfriend working on this map. I really tried my best to play through and make sure there are no rookie mistakes. I plan to update it more in the future and continue decorating, but for now I just want the map out there to collect feedback and improve on later.

The concept is that it is an icey lake basin in the center of moutains in a tundra. There are two dock towns sperated by a mountain, and a dock town in the center of the map. Players can engage in marine battle to quickly cross the lake to the other teams spawn or the central dock city, or they can traverse the land by walking along the lake shore, with plenty of waystations and hiding spots and places for discovery along the way. There are caverns, underground and in-mountain bunkers and tunnels (I love the hole tool), there's a pretty sick mountain you can scale by using grappling hooks, and more. Exploration is rewarded - I threw some intricate and hidden paths if you know where to look.

I really put a lot into this level, and I think you'll be able to tell once you see it. It's actually a map I've made in Far Cry 2 and 3, and I was really excited to reinvent and improve it for Farcry 5. I was a little discouraged by all of the horrible maps the are available in the Arcade right now, and I figure it's because all the real map makers are still perfecting their work. Please give it a look and give me some specific feedback if you get to play it.

What system? Also, you can post a link to it from the arcade site for people to find it easier.

Sorry I can't play it since I'm on PC, but the ideas, effort, and creativity sound phenomenal; good job.

Unfortunately the current Arcade system will screw you over. If you don't get 300+ favorites in the first couple hours of release, no one will ever play your map again, and you map is dead; time wasted. Unless of course Ubi somehow sees it and selects it as a featured map, but that's the only chance. Maps that are more than an hour or so old never get recommended by the Arcade. Do I sound bitter? That's because I also have a map I put a lot of time and effort into (not as much as yours) that has sat dormant for days now and will probably never be played again. Multiplayer is only the same 6 maps now anyway.

Cool man, I added it to my favorites! I plan to play Arcade and all the PS4 maps that have been introduced in these forums as soon as my map is complete. Keep up the mapping!

Also feel free to friend me on PSN - Manlius10A. I will be looking for people to play with soon!

Based on the lone screenshot you've clearly got the ability to make fun good looking maps. Don't let the rating get you down. I'm a 10 year mapping vet and my first FC5 map got half a star!

I got out of my redhorn 80000 B error by lowering the mountains on the edge of my map.

I'm trying to make an island map and the edges are level
