Overview

Overview

Timers

Night/Day/Spawn

These are just cylindrical stone "mountains" with either grass, sand, or gravel on top of them.
The floating stone blocks around the lava areas are there for players to traverse so they can get to the other areas. And I also placed vines along the sides of each "mountain" so they can have the option of climbing up instead of creating stairs to go up.
I placed all of the timers on one "mountain" instead of spreading them around the map.
Any creative input/opinion is appreciated.

A really nice map in my opinion. But it looks quite small and dangerous. However, I like dangerous maps :D

 

[Forseti]

Very nice indeed, just worried about players complaining about dying because of lag q:

I checked it on BB, and went from the spawn with a player's perspective. Then I fell in the lava immediately. So, you did a great job with how dangerous it is x)

I feel like the screenshots don't do it justice at all since I seem not to like it at all based by the screenshots

If it's too dangerous, I can switch the lava to water and replace the obsidian with sand and edit things.

 

[Forseti]

I, personally, don't think it's too dangerous; it adds to the creativity.

I am going to check it out tomorrow, I guess I just don't like the idea of people falling down easily. Perhaps bridge sorts?

The map isn't bad, but my main problem is players breaking the vines. Vines broken on this map means even more frustration for players to get to areas they want to be at (not everyone can afford buying blocks to bridge!), assuming that mobs will be spawning on these cylinders (and we all know that mobs are frustrating enough as a player, also adding to the fact that building space looks quite slim d: )

Quite honestly, I've been trying to think for an alternative to fix this situation, but I am not too sure of how it would work to make it look good. I'm not sure if vines can be added to no-break either (if it can then the story would be quite different) but all in all, I am not so sure if this map will be able to work out.

I like the creativity, danger and the parkour theme you put into making this map. The only problem I can see is players breaking the vines and blocks connecting spawn to the other islands, as this could cause frustration for other players.

Okay scratch what I said earlier, wonderful map rawr! Again for vines I honestly don't know what you can do about that unless we could make them unable to break those blocks.

We'll give it a shot. Accepted.
