European Assault Map Pack *version 1.1b released!!* | Forums

[hanz_h]

Hey all,

<span class="ev_code_GREEN">Introduction:</span>

On my initiative a couple of clans have been brought together to create a map pack that with high quality community maps. All maps have been chosen purely based on it's quality and gameplay! We have tried to get the best custom assault maps out there together in one map pack!

The cooperating clans in this map pack have been UBW, 22ndSAS, A4F, SG and KERPO.

We have called this map pack the European assault mappack because our primary aim is to get these maps played on european servers and has been put together by the european community. Of course this map pack is meant for everyone. It's great to see it being accepted and played not only in Europe but also in the US!

We have selected 8 high quality maps for the map pack. 5 out of 8 maps will only appear in this map pack. With patch 1.1 two extra urban maps have been added built mostly out of custom objects! These maps are eu_streets and eu_graveyard.

<span class="ev_code_GREEN">Selected maps:</span>

1) Stronghold <span class="ev_code_YELLOW">*Exlusively on EU pack*</span>
Crytek 64 bit map that has been completely optimised and has improved gameplay, by A4F Manglord.
2) Gorge <span class="ev_code_YELLOW">*Exlusively on EU pack*</span>
Another Crytek 64 bit map that originally had big gameplay issues and performance issues. It has been greatly improved by UBW Clivey and now runs as smooth as other standard maps and gameplay is completely different!
3) Temple
Great looking map by A4F Manglord. Optimised version with adjusted first flag.
4) Landslide
Another great map by A4F Manglord.
5) Tese
I think a map unknown to most people, but a very cool and fun map to play made by Tatane and modified by [22ndSAS] Hervig.
6) Handara <span class="ev_code_YELLOW">*Exlusively on EU pack*</span>
Visually stunning map created by Ancalimon. This map has eyecandy as well as good gameplay.
7) Helix 3 flag version <span class="ev_code_YELLOW">*Exlusively on EU pack*</span>
Map by Beloved Monster who has created a 3 flag optimised version especially for this map pack.
8) Castle <span class="ev_code_YELLOW">*Exlusively on EU pack*</span>
New and exclusive EU map. The latest piece of art by A4F Manglord. Awesome map. Feels like ruins meets urbanwar 2!!
9) Streets <span class="ev_code_YELLOW">*new*</span>
Great urban warfare map made by -=UBW=- Clivey. Forget about urbanwar2. it's time for streets!
10) Graveyard <span class="ev_code_YELLOW">*new*</span>
Take urban warfare to the next level with this map. Huge climable buildings, lots of custom object, a total city on itself by BelovedMonster!

Hey Achilles,
Nice too see you have gone public at last

The main problem with the map packs in Europe is getting them played on Clan Servers, with so many clans backing this pack it will be nice to seem these maps old/new played!

Nice one m8!

Im really new to these forum but are you using the In Game map editor? BTW: These maps look amazing!

[hanz_h]

Hey KantTouchThis,

In general all maps are made by the ingame map editor (Sandbox). Some custom objects etc are made using different programs. If you're interested in map making have a look in the mod/map section and also on http://www.crymod.com

[slayersofadmin]

I can post it on my website when its ready for downloads.
also send it in to slugworth at http://www.farcry-maps.com he might post it.
