Kolath, needs work, way too many sectors are marked as capturable IMO. It's going to end up in a capping game since there isn't need for a supply line. I'd have it, make the capturable sectors a little bigger. In addition, I got this error about 8 times a second while playing (in the console):
ERROR: trying to blend textures of different dimensions

Hmm... that's odd. I just played a test game with MADTyphoon and the game worked fine.
Will reduce number of sectors by about 4 or so.

It works fine, but did you check the console? That error scrolls A LOT.

No I didn't check the console. I'll look into it.

Looking great Kolath! Although it looks like one side has more sectors than the other? I could just be confused with how the OCP system works but other than that I look forward to playing some matches on it.

It seems the texture error is caused by weather settings. No error using the other weather mode. Will revise.
Good guidance, Ucross. Will make it a separate thread.

Looks good Kolath.
Sectors evenly seperated. 3 main objectives. oddnumber of sectors.
The only thing that might be harsh is that if one side controls 60-70% of the map they may control every objective. This is one of the theoretical disadvantages of having all of the objectives in a vertical line. I think it's best to see how it plays out.

The west side needs a sector in the woods before the hill, IMO.

This may be the most offensive thing I've read. At least, today.

Top, middle, or bottom? Also, since I want to have an odd number of central sectors, where should I put another in or which should I remove?

The way it looks right now, the sectors are all one side of the map.
I was thinking of stripping a sector out from the depot and putting it between the west spawn and the hill. You had one there before. The advantage is that it's a staging area for the hill and so can reasonably expect to have defenders (like the ditch on the east side).
Alternatively - just a brainstorm that struck me - but you could move the east spawns up a bit so they have longer travel times to the depot. But that might look kinda weird.

Keep the good ideas coming. To facilitate discussion, here is the sector map again: Also, I may add a sector by each side's spawn point (or add 2 more spawn points ) to help dilute the effect of MCP.

Got some constructive criticism and ideas for this map. Will post in a couple of days.

Move the one to the left of the town up to that Depot area, add one in the bottom left at the farm.
Remove one from the bottom (preferably the bottom right merges into one sector) then add another to the radar station area at the top. This will create a nice frontline area with 2 sectors in the players starting areas. If possible move the spawn points on the right side down a bit and move the road to match.

It is the "new" OCP system (read: re-branded objective system). Yes t works.

AmPm, I'm not sure I want the top left construction site to be a sector because it would be very prone to random capping, especially if I move the left spawn points down. Proposed layout for discussion: Note I propose adding two spawn points so 4v4 is possible:

With OCP, larger maps are acceptable again so I don't think 4vs4 is needed.
