New Map Ideas

[Kamikaze_Chicken]

ok i was thinking about making a map based on the movie "Cube"... anyways after reading through a couple of threads here i thought i would share my ideas with all of you so i know that people are looking forward 2 it or if im just going 2 be making a map and giving up part way through...

Anyways for those of you who havent seen the movie Cube i seriously suggest you see it... it is the best movie ever...

anyways getting side tracked... basically cube is about a giant cube rigged with death traps and complicated mathematics... you begin as a civilian (or something) and walk from room to room trying to find the way but if you choose a wrong turn u wind up dead...

ok tell me what you think... thanx all

Interesting...never even heard of the movie cube. I'd like to know more about the map. Is it just about walking around trying to get out without being killed?

[peace_machine]

Never heard of the movie either... So your a civilian in a giant cube who must solve riddles/questions /problems to survive? Or is it just one big maze? You wouldn't find many ppl playing it a 2nd or 3rd time as everything would already be solved.

[Infernus]

It sounds like it could be something like Jail Break.

[Tuxedo-Templar]

Cool. So you go from room to room based on the answers to questions. You should have a way of randomizing the questions/answers each time so it won't be the same. :D That'll add to replay value and prevent someone who knows already from spoiling it.

I thought I had played a map based on The Cube before... and I had, but it was for Half-Life. Is it about these people who got stuck in a cube somehow...? In the HL one, every few seconds the cube turned around and the floor could now be the wall, which has spikes on it. o.O.

I have no idea how I though that the HL one was an SC one...

I watched cube. What happened was six completely different people were abducted and put in this three dimensional trap maze, where lots of interlocking cubes which moved periodically made up a puzzle. They had to find a way out or else they would be dead.

It was full of maths. You see, every cube had digits on its entrances, and they would reveal the location of the cube they were in relative to others, and whether it contained a deadly trap in it or not. It was really cool to see them finally realise that one of the cubes had a location unlike the others. It took them a while to work out what the numbers meant though.

Plus the movie was really gory and a whole lot of people got their guts thrown out. And I think Kamikaze_Chicken already explained it in a less complicated way but I really liked the movie too so I had to say it...

Good idea! You should do it!

Hey mabey we can watch that movie in maths class because of its educational purposes?

I still don't think the map sounds too good at the moment, however it could turn out to be a pice of art when I eventually play it.

the thing is the maths is really complicated something like factors of perfect squares or something... the only way they find the way out because the mentally handicapped one can do the really large numbers in his head

have you seen the sequel Hypercube it's really strange... its the same sort of storyline but their trapped in a Hypercube (a 4D Cube) that changes time, gravity, and speed in every single room... in this one instead of room numbers only one number appears every so often "60659" the take ages to find out what it means... once again their is a mentally handicapped person who took part in designing it as well as a blind girl who actually turns out to have created the Hypercube...

anyways i probably shouldn't ruin it for those who havent seen it but want 2

[GiaDragoness]

Blind an retarded people are better at figuring out puzzles and deathtraps than normal poeple? This does'nt give me much faith in humanity. Not that i had much to begin with. lol Hey i know, why dont two guys walk into a smith and wesson gun store, with two active cops on duty, IN the buliding, as well as 8 or so patrons, then they try to rob the place? Oh wait, that already happened. (and no, sadly, i am not joking)





:smash: Smashy Smashy! :smash:

[BSTRhino]

Haha Gia, those guys must be pretty dumb, but perhaps they had no idea that they were just asking to be caught when they walked in...?

You know, funnily enough peace_machine, I did watch Cube in maths class! What a co-inkydink!

No, I haven't seen Hypercube, I think Cube scared me enough... remember at the start of Cube, there's this guy who's walking along, and then unexpectedly he gets chopped into pieces by some invisible cheese cutter strings (what are they called again?) Yuck...!

It was a cool movie and everything, but I wouldn't recommend just anyone to watch it. It was more gory than when Arnold split his arm open on Terminator 2.

Anyway, I agree with peace_machine about the map. The trouble with basing maps off movies is people already know how it ends and exactly what to do, so there's no real mystery to it.

I think a good map should be made out of that movie event horizon, that would be one scary ass map, like people dieing and the Zerg could be the "other dimension” creatures, but you figure out the ending

:ninjal: watch out for the samich :ninjal:
