Vote on Flatline 44 Maps Now! Here they are folks, voting will end on Saturday at Noon (Mountain Time). |
Re: Vote on Flatline 44 Maps Now! Omaha, omaha, omaha! |
Mannerheim Line, Mannerheim Line, Mannerheim Line! |
Re: Vote on Flatline 44 Maps Now! Bah! Europes Overdone ;) |
Re: Vote on Flatline 44 Maps Now! Mannerheim Line, that would make a great battle. |
the correct and ONLY answer is omaha |
C'mon - singapore - the Japs don't figure in the game apart from the Pacifc/Carrier maps. Give them a good land based map ... |
Re: Vote on Flatline 44 Maps Now! They can allways go back and make those maps later. Anyway, I voted for Omaha since it's the only one with Americans and the current omaha blows. |
Re: Vote on Flatline 44 Maps Now! Had to go with Singapore on this one |
fl44 researches their maps, omaha is a spectacular battle, yet no mod or game has done it true justice, settling for SPR or dice's wacky take on it. It would probably make it into first release, if it is done by then, since both americans and germans have their weapons and small arms. there is already a finland map, which is damn good. share some of the wealth! theres a pacific land battle map already in, amaccan. north africa is a good theatre, but these other settings are more interesting imo. I'm not saying that any of these other battles are meaningless or shouldnt be mapped, im saying that fl44's talents would probably be better utilized making such a well known battle in the greatest amphibious landing in the history of the world. in summation, OMAHA |
Mannerheim line...but I wanted tractor factory! |
Re: Vote on Flatline 44 Maps Now! I voted Mannerheim Line when I saw Finland. Now that I think about it more, I kind of want Omaha too... |
I voted singapore because the war in the Far East is neglected and is not known by many. Also is their any chance we might see China entering the FHmod fray. |
Re: Vote on Flatline 44 Maps Now! Nothing wrong with 2 Finnish maps. Plus, It will give FL44/Lobo to model new bunkers and fortifications... If you want Omaha so badly, more votes need to be cast for it :D |
are you suggesting that i illegally stuff the ballot box? sir, that is morally unsound. THESE COLORS DONT RUN |
it doesn't matter what wins because we will probably be treated to a very professianally done map :rock: |

Re: Vote on Flatline 44 Maps Now! look at the *current* (.4C) "Omaha dedication" in the FH beta, redone incredibly realistic with dead on accuracy down to placement of homes, its not quite done (dont think any FH map is) beach has been tested probably 20-30 times over for that "real" feel (tho only so much that can be done taking into account player behavior and BF, check it out if you havn't already, prety much every obsticle, shell hole and bump is there for a reason... edit: in summery I think fl44 making a omaha map would be a wasted effort, making a omaha map that meets the standards of everyone witch is designed for multiplayer only is impossable (for those who are not mappers, trying to make players follow a play stile like omaha is very hard without doing thinkgs like taking away classes ie. sniper witch ruins the battlefield feel imo), and since the current omaha isn't a final map I really don't think the fl44 map would be any better then it... |
no offense your map is kinda meh. its upside down, its actually smaller than dice's map, its too symmetrical, the trenches on the beach are basically karelia's, youre using the battlecraft detail.dds, too many control points and its really unnecessary that the axis have a non cappable point with all the points they control already, too much out of bounds (use setactivecombat area), the passes are going to be a slaughter to the allies with no chance of ever making it up. also theres a sherman tank wreck on the beach, which i thought none landed? |
Got omaha? |
Re: Vote on Flatline 44 Maps Now! well like I said its still not done, but... I belive 2 of 47 sherman tanks made it PAST the beach, so shurly some got wreaked on the beach, that beach was prety much symmetrical, they had there defences repeted the same all along the beach, I thought you wanted real? (and I didn't want to make the level of the water along the shore vary TOO much, otherwise everyone would just land on the short end for a quick run). The treches look like karelias yes, butl thats how they really looked, I guess you could say karelias look like those ones (I was already making those when karelia was released, I did get a single ideas for my trenches from karilla and that was how to do the side parts, those took me quite a long time). The total map area will be smaller once its 100% done, making the out of bounds look smaller, the maps smaller, yes, but dice has a lot of useless space, basicly all of the map will have fighting on it, and since most buildings are intact and enterable it makes it seem a lot bigger, not to mention its got very few vehicles, those passes arn't a slaughter at all, its very easy to aviod the MG42 and allis spawn right there (I've played it with people, its quite easy for allies to pass), detail.dds may change later, I thought the battlecraft one looked fine, and the 2 beach points are only cappable by allies, putting them out of the game as soon as the allies get up the cliffs (it origonaly had less points up top, but it seemed far to little once the 2 beach points were eliminated from the game, with the front line style fighting of the city and theres still a chance I may change it). I guess you should play it before you comment on its playability... I'm definitly not trying to insult you reinhold, just explaining, since I don't think you've played the map (just looked at it)... your one of the few who actualy say somethgin other then "nice map" (witch people say reguardless of how good the map is) :). |
Re: Vote on Flatline 44 Maps Now! Lets not get OT here kiddies! :D |
There are enough Yankee-maps out there and they just start to get boring. So say NO to Omaha! Mannerheim Line would be exotic "only from us!"-type of map and, if done properly, the potential of great fights is just... can't imagine a word great enough to describe it. The historical background of Mannerheim and his Line is just so damn interesting AND IMPORTANT that it's about time that someone would respect the vets of the Northern Front that without communists would've swept through whole Scandinavia and God knows where else. So vote for Mannerheim Line, vote for Respect! (but if you're not going to make it on the historical detail and the proper respect for Finns and their part in WW2, just forget it!) |
Re: Vote on Flatline 44 Maps Now! Western Europe/Russia maps only... so my voice for NEW OMAHA.... |
Kryptonife, I like a lot your beach trenches but not the rest of the map. It would be great if you collaborate with the Flatline guys to make the Omaha beach map, I want to model the tall bunkers. We can help them with the static models. |
Re: Vote on Flatline 44 Maps Now! Lobo, would those tall bunkers have rooms in them like those in MOHAA? If so that would be very cool :) |

Re: Vote on Flatline 44 Maps Now! Sorry to get mad... but NORTH AFRICA???? WTF Thats a whole 6 or 7 different fricken countries... If you had stated a specific battle maybe I'd consider voting for it. PS: The Aussies did most of the Eytie whipping in Africa... and for those who hate the french.. a small force of Free french held off rommel's 8th repeatedly, refusing to give in because they were ashamed of what france had done... they eventually won. |

Re: Re: Vote on Flatline 44 Maps Now! Quote:
I also want a link to that French claim. I hardly doubt a "small" force could hold up Rommel (who was heading 1 panzer division and 1 light motorized at the time of entrance). |
Re: Re: Re: Vote on Flatline 44 Maps Now! Quote:
http://www.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_Bir_Hakeim The French eventually managed to stage a breakout at night, so I'd call that a victory... Reading it now, it would make a very interesting map... |
Re: Vote on Flatline 44 Maps Now! For one, The "Small" Free French Legion had support from the 7th British Armored Division. Rommel layed seige to the city and asked for surrender. The refused, held on for a little while, and eventually escaped and left Bir Hakeim. Since when did evacuations become victories?! Strategically, they managed to maintain the bulk of their forces, but they lost the battle. The same goes for the evacuation of Dunkirk. |
Re: Vote on Flatline 44 Maps Now! We have seen USA vs. Germany in many maps already. Choose the Mannerheim Line. |

Annnnnyway, vote Singapore! :D |
Re: Re: Vote on Flatline 44 Maps Now! RE-DO OMAHA!!!!! :D Make the beach wider, place the mg emplacements farther back, and add more control points on the beach and past the cliffs. I really love the Overlord Dog Green map for the XWWII mod, please make your Omaha map like Overlord. |
Re: Re: Re: Vote on Flatline 44 Maps Now! Quote:
|
Re: Vote on Flatline 44 Maps Now! XWW2 Dog Green was such a drab map. I played it once and then completely forgot about it. It appears that Mannerheim Line is pulling ahead with not many days left to vote! :D |

Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Vote on Flatline 44 Maps Now! if some of the FL44 mappers wana contact me my msn is Kryptonife@hotmail.com and we can work something out... |
Wiking, we have a lot of maps with russians, but not a lot of russian vehicles yet, and no finns vehicles. Wait we have more stuff for them to make a CCCP_Finland map. Omaha has more priority. |
^^^^ exactly. until the finns have their own weapons and vehicles, itll just be another germans vs russians, which is ridiculously abundant in FH right now. I can only think of one working custom map with americans vs germans, and its braunwald. karelia is in, so dont say that the finns arent in FH. i guess people want more of the same, according to the poll :rolleyes: |
sorry for not being specific when i says that i want a britain vs italia map the capture of saomlialand would be nice or maybe operation torch or even italia at el alamein you know there weere more italians at el almein then germans |
Re: Vote on Flatline 44 Maps Now! Btw you guys should also consider making an FH version of Battle of Ihantala. That map looks, feels and plays very nice and i think it deserves more attention than just being a custom map among many others. |
respect mannerheim ;) http://www.spartacus.schoolnet.co.uk/2WWmannerheim2.JPG |
