    Upgraded ubi featured map

    I thought i would take a section of a ubisoft featured map and give it a visual upgrade to help the creator see the full potential of the map, hope it helps. i only upgraded this scene just for the images. notice how i use small details to give a sense of depth and realism. the upgrade only cost 2% and theres 8% budget left. this is on xb1.

    Original.


    My upgraded version.

    Your "upgraded" version doesn't fit the maps theme. Whos to say the map is built for realism? Its built for the selected theme, hence the contrast and lighting on my version.

    Not to mention i removed some details to help prevent Lag considering its a MP map.

    Your clearly creating this post to cause something due to the fact I called you out and you didn't like it.

    If i had known this map was yours i wouldn't of bothered upgrading it. all it says is ubisoft. i dont follow your work or posts, i was just trying to help the creator. ive done this on another featured map, so it's not about you at all sorry. i wish i never wasted my time on your map.

    I finally got to play that maps last night and we were talking about the lighting. I love it, I had lighting like that on Secret of Vishnu and everyone was all it’s too bright and colorful! That’s what I was going for!. Anyway great map man, very lush, nice flow and well put together. There’s no rocks I can get under to shoot people and it’s pretty balanced with playable loadouts and that’s all I care about really. If I was to nit pick the spawns are a little out in the open but I never got spawn killed.

    Unfortunately, this map is the essence of camping. Hide inside bushes then sniper shot everyone that passes by. Even though I like both original and AW's versions design-wise, I cant say I like how the gameplay goes.

    I also don’t want to talk S about the OPs idea. I will admit that this editor is capable of some cool stuff and I will concur that some of the levels are almost devoid of deco but I don’t feel like this one is one of those. All the OP did was change the mood and add some plants. These are down to the creator tho. Even, and it pains me to say this, even some of the loadout designs and map design choices come down to a twisted sense of fun. When I dl and tweak maps I usually clean up pathing or suggest ideas to make the map more playable or balanced, and I send them a PM letting them know how awesome their level is and suggest a couple additions that might add playability and they take it from there. tho I can understand posting a featured map on here.. Sometimes tho it’s just how the person wants it to play. I have been doing this with some creators and have a list I’m about to post of awesome levels I’ve found.

    Camping? Oh, you mean playing the game. I’m a camper/sniper hunter and generally on the move but there is very valid strategy to staying where you are and not running around ALL the time. Esp if you have a sided spawn. Sometimes I’m holding down a location and my partner will just run off and get himself/herself killed instead of just killing people as they blindly run to you.
