Topic: New Map Suggestion

After playing KOTOR 1 & 2, I would really like to a see a coop/sp/(whatever else you want to put) map for Malachor V. But judging by how Malachor V looks, it's probably asking for too much although it would be a very nice map to have smile. For those who don't know what Malachor V you can go here
Planet: http://images-mediawiki-sites.thefullwi … 425795.jpg (sorry I couldn't find a bigger picture)
And since I couldn't find a picture on the actual ground (my file for KOTOR 2 was deleted as well sad ) I just have to say that it basically looks like how the planet does but with many rifts and cracks with poisonous green gas coming out of them. You can learn about the planet here: http://holocrons.com/holocron-library/3 … malachor-v just in case
BTW: I'm not actively online (major distraction from my Honors and AP courses so I won't reply much if at all)

Re: New Map Suggestion

Thanks for the suggestion Dark_Assassin, but we'll be mostly focusing on the core locations from the movies for the forseeable future, these being locations seen in the movies such as Hoth and Bespin. We want to move away from the EU locales a bit and give people the iconic locations to battle in that they really want to see when they pic up a Star Wars mod.

Re: New Map Suggestion

And not to mention that Malachor V was destroyed at the end of KotOR 2.

Easy way around that(with a ton work though). If they do plan on making other teams, then maybe recreating the Mandalorian Wars would be nice ^_^. But if they want to work mainly on core maps, then maybe the very distant future or maybe even a custom map? I would do it but have no clue how to do it and don't have the time sad

I think what you really need is for interesting maps, which give something new and unique, not just maps from the movies. If you can combine the two - great! If not - better choose the more interesting option, that will spice up the gameplay.

After all, almost every SW mod is focusing on the movies and making something new and unique using the movies is kind of hard. The Star Wars: Galactic Warfare mod managed to achieve that by making the map "Not-A-Cave" where if you shoot or damage the "cave", the exogorth (the space slug) would make an earthquake (of course you can't kill it). Never played the actual mod, but saw the video and it looks fun. Also, there are some mynocks flying around.

So, if you can make something exotic like that - go ahead. If not, you're risking the new map to be just a new map in a new location (more of the same, but a little bit different). Which is sad.
