Thawing Time - By Helix Build Team & Sanders2408

[Team Helix]

Name Of Map:
Thawing Time

Lead Builder/Build Team Name:
MCGamerzism, Niekrm & Sanders2408 - Helix Build Team

Game Type:
Quarter Quell

Description Of The Map:
Once the lands of dinosaurs, they became extinct, and left the luscious environment underneath them. Villagers of 2 kinds decided to rule the earth, but a land of segregation was developing. The land was split into the Igloo village, and wealthy village, one lived among luxuries, the other survived of raw materials.
And the frozen environment didn't contribute well...This is the Thawing Times, a time for hunger, fear, mystery and a dark future.

The map was built with PvP in mind, while also staying loyal to the true QQ feel: "Player VS environment"

So after realising that its impossible for a "Solo-builder" to build a high quality QQ map in 2 weeks, I asked team Helix if I could help them building their QQ map. It was truly amazing to build with you guys! I think this map is a great mix of 2 styles (my personal style & theirs), and the outcome is better than I could have ever imagined. The map may not be completed yet, but I think the final form of the map (I think 2 or 3 days from now) is in sight. As I said, working with Helix was great & and I look forward to their future projects.
I also look forward to other contest entries.

and Sean,
yours isn't bad either.

Cya!

Thats really good mate (i have the legal right to say 'mate' because im australian ok?) Ik this is a snow map but some areas seem a tiny bit too boring :/. I guess this map is gonna be good for pvp then (doesnt even matter, i suck anyway).

Its DEFINITELY an amazing build, could do with some non-shader-non texture pack builds though, I specifically remember a certain MCGamerzism saying its like the things girls wear on their face.

Overall a really good build! Could do with a bit more detail, (And in my eyes it doesn't look too much like a QQ map) but definitely good!

I see what you mean It is not 100% finished, and we still need to develop ideas to get rid of the blank spaces! Default pictures will come out later today, also. I would recommend downloading the map when there is a link, you really need to test the map in order to feel the style and gameplay .

Construction of each map must be started during the competition’s duration, not before; if you have been working on an map before the contest was announced, you may not use it.

This is a good map. However, if I am not mistaken, I am pretty sure this map was already in construction before the contest was released, thus breaking the rules Dave set above... So yeah...

Sadly to say, sir this was not constructed before the contest was announced, we intiated the project on the exact day of announcment. Thus , we are still safe.

If you require proof, please feel free to poke me and I can provide full responsibilty of the proof which will be provided.

Ok thats good to know. It'd be a shame to see a wonderful map be disqualified. btw, download link pls asap? ty. Ill check in the code when it was initiated just to be sure . It is an awesome doe!

Not sure why you thought we started the map before we were allowed to but maybe its because helix made another qq map a month ago. Anyway i'm glad you like it

You dont need to look in to the code, you can see it when you put the map in your singleplayer saves folder.
