Crater

[Egg]

Map Name : Crater
Map Creators : Coherent_Burrito, dirty_egg, MeowRecon04 (FLOPBOOK wanted to be mentioned also)
Map Description : There is an old, abandon excavation site inside of a massive crater, that was caused by a meteorite. Takes place in the Rocky Mountains. Scientists and Archaeologists discovered this crater, and wanted to take the opportunity to learn as much as possible about the meteorite as they could. During their experiments, all electricity went out, leaving them in a crater with minimal food, and using bug-infested caves as their only shelter. The mountains were too high, and they didn't have the ability to get out. They were trapped forever.

Map Info =
400 Block Diameter
Approximately 55 Chests
Realistic Chest Placement

Above is a picture of corn. The platforms (picture is below) are located inside of the meteorite that has crashed. There are several exits from the meteorite.

There are so many caves to explore that have parkour, traps, and levers, to make your matches on here VERY interesting.

All of the intertwining caves that run throughout the map are amazing. Locate the chests that they left behind and fight!

FIRST

anyways, that's awesome!! The corn idea is brilliant, just the crater looks a bit too clean, make it more messy! Also, if possible, take screenshots of other open areas on map, if there are any yet. I possibly could come over tomorrow. (I live in EU, 7 hours before US time) It's a great idea, and a great start!

Edit: make the chest placements at corn more unique and interesting.

Edit 2: I know you are probably going to do this, but increase chest amount to about 175-250

I like the map, try a different name.ncrater sounds kinda bland. How about "Ancient Crater SG"

 

[Simey]

I had good time playing this map today! Jest make the crater easier to escape! And the caverns should be deeper. Server is also well-made start.

Go check their server out, IP in the first message.

Remember when we made an Excavation site map like a month ago and it was way better? Ha, sorry but I feel like you kind of ripped off our map idea and didn't make any improvements.

That's a hell of a hole for such a small meteorite.

This map is a totally fresh map. Don't say we took it from you guys.

It's a mighty similar idea...

That's a hell of a small hole for a meteorite which appears to be 20ish meters acrross (1block = 1 meter). The crater for that kind of size of meteorite would be 500m to 1000m across, see the last entry on this page.

My opinion of the map is quite low I think it is another attempt to get a map that doesn't look great and isn't well built accepted under the pretense of a small enclosed map which is good for pvp. Also the whole meteorite thing doesn't really make any sense.

As this map is in progress then there is still time to fix it up and make it better but I'm not sure you are going to do it to the standard required to have the map accepted.

Looks OK. But is 55 chests really enough?!
