Magic gave me a sneak peak into his island and all I have to say is that it is very colorful. As he said, it is a perfect island for hanging out. I can't wait to get out on the race track and the battle area. I'm not to fond of ctf but if you are into that, then he has a good section for it. I haven't tried kricket yet, but he has allocated space for that too.

1/4 of the map... the map is divided into six squaresSpider wrote:...Hopefully the "battle arena" is big...
top left : Battle Arena, lots of walls, hiding places, hazards on the ground etc...
Top Right : um WIP probbably wont be accessible until future server release because of
the need to have accurate vehicle surface collision detection but the concept
skate park thingy
Bottom Left :Racing - its a maze structure so you will have to work out which way to go
for yourself has various hazards such as water pits (kills ya), ice
to slid on, bit of a mine field in various places, and a few jumps
throw in for good measure and speed up and slow down zones.
Bottom Right: Kricket.... coz its fun
middle left : team 1 base

i will never get you guys...reine 1 had a tiny econ, ctf, fps fighting, a hornball arena, workin' crows, and full island length racetrack. one of the last conversations i had with you on reine 1 was that it was too many things crammed into one isle.Tom wrote:well hopefully it will appeal to everyone, as it seems to have almost everything
i've peeked in to vector, and it'll definitely rock. praps it's the more leisurely feel of it that makes the difference, or the not-waiting-9-hours-for-the-thing-to-download, i dunno. but now i've pretty much heard everything, and everything's evil twin, gary.
