Other =F|A= Oasis - REMAKE 2020

[Smileyyy]

Hello everyone,

 

I am here today to announce the end of the original Oasis. However, this is not a day of mourning but a start of a new beginning, for a new Oasis has been birthed by the infamous @Smileyyy!

 

After the many sleepless nights from the everlasting nightmares I have endured after being forced to play the dreaded Oasis that has plagued this Earth for the past two decades, I have set upon a journey to finally end the suffering so many of us have had to experience throughout our lives. NO MORE I SAY!

 

This new map sparks the dawn of a new golden age! Now, remember this day, the 2nd of May to be the start of true happiness for all of humanity.

 

Finally introducing =F|A= OASIS!!

 

Below is a list of the changes made that address the issues with Oasis which include:

 

- Shifting the focal point of battles to minimize the limitations of chokepoints by adding new routes and passages.

- Changing the tone and intensity of the lighting to make it visually pleasing.

- Making the whole map more accessible to have a more refreshing gameplay experience.

 

Some visuals:

 

- Allied Spawn.

 

- *New* Sniper's Nest.

 

- First Stage.

 

- Room adjacent to Old City Wall.

 

- Oasis + *New* Allied Forward Spawn (Unlocked by CP).

 

- *New* Command Post and Health/Ammo Cabinets.

 

- Tunnel Exit to Garrison.

 

- *New* Side Entrance. (Destructable Gate)

 

- *New* Interior of Side Entrance.

 

- Side Entrance leading to South AT Gun.

 

- *New* Axis Garrison Spawn Areas.

 

- *New* Ladder to the AT Guns.

 

- *New* Hatch and Pathway connecting AT Guns.

This looks really good! Is there a pk3 file so we can test it? :D. About the parts that we cannot see from the pictures: Is the map based of Oasis or SW_oasis?

Not yet, @Buckwild is working on them. He said he would finish it by today. I will add the waypoints to the map download and bump this topic when I get my hands on them.
