So I've heard a lot of people kick around the idea of cp_pro_foundry. Also, as some may know, I'm a budding mapper and since I'm not playing this next season I'd like to be involved with this game in some way that's not vicariously living through people's streams of scrims.

I'm not making ANY promises to actually do anything yet. I might later, but we'll see.

SO
What would you guys want out of a pro version of foundry?
What do you like/dislike about cp_foundry?

I'll make a post of Pro's and Con's if people respond enough. Thanks

people haven't even scrimmed foundry so only god knows what it needs

remove the giant ammo packs and get rid of a lot of the health packs, sight line at mid. Also on last point would need to be reworked, I think something similar to cp_proces's last layout might work

Last on foundry is pretty good, but yeah sightlines at middle are way too open for snipers (as well as parts of second) and there are a lot of medium health packs near the middle point. Also the train sound is irritating for some people.

well then lets get god in here to tell us. god alt incoming in 3.2.1...

-too many sight lines at middle.
-second is really stalematey to get into
-last needs to be reworked
-its a pub based map so there's too much health and ammo everywhere

I think there was a thread a while ago about this.

found it: http://natf2.com/topics/1722-cp_foundry-first-impressions

For more input, check out this thread: http://etf2l.org/forum/maps/topic-19914/?recent=359566

So from what I gather,
-There's pretty about 2-3 sightlines that are easy for sniper on last, 2nd, and mid.
-Health/ammo kits in between 2nd and mid need to be readjusted.
-The spawn (defending last) provides too much advantage for attackers.
-There's a glitch where you can get into the barrels on last.
-The environmental disaster that is the forge behind last should be closed off
-Last's entrances and exits are hard to prevent peeking/aggression on.
-2nd is stalematey (why?!!?)
-Mid Might need some reworking.
-Train/steam whistle sound when point is capped needs to go.
LMK if you guys think this list is shit or want to add/takeaway from it.

I always thought that map could use something more interesting than a roof over the point at mid.

i like it the way it is ;/

Such as crates? Walls?

I think crates would solve some of the sight line problems on mid but idk. Beee more specific :I

I'm not convinced any of the points are too hard to push or sightlines need changing yet. I think you should wait for some proper testing before making any big changes.

Change all the big ammo packs to medium.
some med packs need to be (re)moved, a lot seem to be placed just to far away to use on rolling out. An extra one on the left would help.
some of the medium health and ammo packs should be small.
wall of the fire pit and add a small ammo pack for defenders.
Remove the gimmick sounds or whatever it is.
I say keep the 8 minutes for each point, faster gameplay.
