NEXT BASE UPDATE: Early Spring 2008

Base designers: we are not accepting bases for the new map at this time. However, if you would like to add a base to the general test arena, you may do so by following the "Base Publishing" directions below.

Priorities:

----------------------

1. Update current map tileset for use by base makers wishing to submit bases for the January map update. We could publish a CLT project do ease the process. The tileset update does not need to be completely new - only update tiles that are in need of graphical updates.

2. Finish new tileset and CLT project lvz to be used for HSFL.

3. Put together updated map for HSFL using player base submissions.

S!@#$%^&*, what do you mean by "put together updated map for HSFL using player base submissions." ? Me, Got Bounty?, and Sention have been working on and building HSFL for some time, and GB alone has been putting the map together and it is just about completed (althought in need of retiling).

Definitely bud! Keep going like you are - I'm all for it! Aqua is working on a tileset for you. I'm just reiterating to everyone that I would like HSFL to consist of player made bases - in the attack style that gb suggested - and not made by one or two designers only. This is a great place to test out the idea of flag-worthy attack bases. Edited December 20, 2007 by Sass

[got bounty?]

Ah, sounds good. You had us confused there, for a second.

 

I agree completly with S!@#$%^&* on the player-made base issue. If anyone has bases they find 'fit' to suit HSFL in a fast-paced flagging game, feel free to show me online. You do not need to have these bases tiled, just a firm outline. If your base is rejected, feedback and suggestions on additions/ improvements will be provided. Remember, we're looking for bases that will create a fun, action-packed experience.

 

The first HSFL already has 4 bases set in concrete. We know these 4 bases will be used in the first HyperSpace Flagging League. Two spots still remain open. These bases have yet to be choosen/ made. Once we establish precedent for HSFL, I'm sure more and more 'HSFL' maps will be made, creating brand new bases to be critqued. Eventually we can narrow down the 'best' possible combination of bases that favors everyones needs and concerns maintaining great time for everyone.

 

Cheers

We have 4 bases submitted for the January release so far. If you would like to submit one I need to receive it no later than January 3rd, 2008. For those of you who have submitted bases please check your ?messages in-game and take appropriate actions. Also, players should keep in mind that staff makes the final decision about which bases are kept or discarded. If you have designed a base but it was not used, please feel free to ask about what changes are needed, make the modifications, and re-submit. Just because you were not approved once does not mean that you cannot try again. Definitely - Try again! (Oh - apply that in life too! )
