Looking good!

You should lower the street to make those real curbs. A few spots look kinda bland.

Do you have an overview?

Looks great.

I think the sky would be better if it were a more lighter pure blue. That sky, i think, is begining to get overused. The pictures that only show the lighter part of the blue sky look really great.

Texture choices are good. Ill take part in the beta testing if u set one up.

I don't mind the blue, but I think with such lush greens in the map, the mountians in the evironment could be a lot greener and/or stone-peak like.

Map looks good, even for my high standards :D Tip though...

Maps seems a bit too linear, add some side passages and some accesible buildings (if there aren't any already)

Other than that, keep it up.

Maybe you'd like my belfort sky?

Pretty nice map, like all happymaps :)

But the axis start looks too "clean" for a destroyed building. Some broken furniture or destroyed ceilings would help maybe :D

looks really nice. the main thing that stuck out was the roads should be lowered by about 8 points (someone already mentioned this) - and maybe you could add a little detail here and there. thats about it.

From the overview I'll bet gameplay is fast and crazy...all teams jammed up in the middle...could be a fun frag-fest kinda play. You might still want to have a few side-paths (like caen or donner). Your brush work and texture usage skills are top-notch.

Good work so far.

Yes and Thx all !

The Gameplay on this version with many people is surely very brutal i think !

Map looks really good. I just think that some areas are too open (like 1st Axis flag). You could add another spawn exits and cover tham more cause Allies can easily stop Axis from exiting their spawn and also Allies tend to cap first two flags more quickly (they can throw nades from mid flag area to open area with truck to slow Axis reinforcements); capping last flag is a matter of (short) time afterwards.

Nice map mate!

Sort out the texture scaling on the house in this pic: http://people.freenet.de/derErnst/panic/dod_panic_b10002.jpg

Nice to see something where the environment hasn't been bombed to hell :)

Oh and change the brick-road; the only place in France I've seen that was at Euro-Disney :P

the map looks great. as FD said, i would advise putting in some pths around the sid,e possibly a flash type field or somethign similar would be a ncie change of scenary too. good map though, good job.
