Re: Sidewinder's back, baby!
Posted By: Avateur <avateur@gmail.com>Date: 3/19/08 3:29 a.m.

In Response To: Re: Sidewinder's back, baby! (ACEfanatic02)


: Yes, and Last Resort plays pretty terribly.

: (Then again, I wasn't much a fan of Zanzibar to begin with.)

: Also, from H1 -> H3 is a bigger change than H2 -> H3. (You'll note
: H2/H3 has no fall damage. Pretty important for most maps, Sidewinder
: included. There's a reason Tombstone sucked.)

: -ACE

Tombstone sucked for a lot of reasons, the biggest one being that it was an attempt to remake one of the most favorite maps from H1. Avalanche, while taking a lot from Sidewinder, wasn't an attempt to remake Sidewinder, but to act sort of as a spiritual successor to it. And no, not like how Guardian is compared to Lockout (where there's almost no comparison to make).

I'm hoping this map manages to successfully pull off what it's taken from Sidewinder while also managing to become a great map in and of itself. I have high hopes for this map, and I believe it has the ability to become one of the most fan-favorite maps of all three games.
