I’m currently in the process of creating a map for Team Fortress 2. Its a control point map that will resemble maps like Dustbowl and Gravelpit. The one big difference in my map (compared to all of Valve’s maps) is having Red attack the Blu as opposed to the opposite. Woo!

Blu has created a payload factory in the depths of an abandoned, dried-out dam and Red has to gain control by infiltrating the base and stopping those damn Blu bastards from blowing up their shit for like the 20th time. At least that’s the story I came up with.

Keep in mind that this map is in the most preliminary steps possible. I’ve drawn a bunch of pictures but have yet to get acquainted with Hammer. So it may take some time for this map to even become anything close to an actual map. But like I said, I drew a bunch of pictures!

The first of many top-down map views I’ve drawn shows the entire map as one giant play field, but my plan is to split up the area into a couple maps like Dustbowl and Goldrush, where capturing two or three points moves you onto the next map, and so on and so forth.

I’ll be keeping this blog relatively up to date with the progress of the map, so watch for updates or subscribe to the RSS. I’ll even draw more pictures!
