The Holocron of Jedi Temple of Coruscant

Re: The Design Holocron of Bespin Carbon Freeze Chamber

This map looks so cool though, and has been tested a bunch. Maybe we could re-name it as some other Imperial Base or something like that and release it.
 
Re: The Design Holocron of Bespin Carbon Freeze Chamber

Yeah it is definitely a unique map that I think we should do something with. Maybe drop the freezing chamber aspect of it and name it for some part of Coruscant?

I like the sound of that. I was not wanting to get rid of it, I just have a better version of the carbon freeze chamber, that I will post soon.
 
Re: The Design Holocron of Bespin Carbon Freeze Chamber

@Yodaking, any suggestions on what we call this one. We can keep the glyph locations for an eventual release of a battlefront situation.

Not off the top of my head. Maybe some part of the Jedi Temple or Senate buildings. Maybe avoid an iconic location all together and just give it a generic Sci-Fi city building theme and find a matching name from one of the novels/cartoons/comic books? I'd think browsing wookiepedia or starwars.com for some options might be helpful here. I don't know everything that has been mentioned in the entire EU but I'm sure there is something that could work.

I went ahead and changed this one to the Jedi temple of Coruscant. When I get home from work today I will load up my Bespin Carbon Freeze Chamber.

Having played a ton of Battlefronts 2 with my son this weekend I just wanted to say...Good choice on the name. reminds me a lot of the Jedi Temple on the game. Lots of steps and columns.

I posted up a new map I'm testing that better represents the freeze chamber. Look it up, its pretty fun. If you test it, I'll link it to the OP.
 
Re: The Design Holocron of Jedi Temple of Coruscant

Updated Front page with tweaked version for BOSS BATTLEFRONT Compatibilty and added new VS file.

EDIT: There are 5 Battlefront control points on the map. 1 in each startzone. 1 by the optional Bacta Tank, 1 under the high point, and the final 1 on top of the high point. I also moved a couple of things around, and removed the other DO objects from this map since it is the Jedi Temple of Coruscant. Also made a new VS Link with the latest version.
 
Re: The Design Holocron of Jedi Temple of Coruscant

I did move a couple of very non important pieces around when updating this map, I'll probably get a few games of battlefront in on it and then give my new review of it with the new battle system. Anything about this one from anyone?
 
Re: The Design Holocron of Jedi Temple of Coruscant

I think this map is big enough to not that any control points inside a SZ. You can place one just outside of the SZs and easy to claim on OM1 of round 1, but should your opponent manage to battle their way there, or even sneak around and claim it from you while you are focused on other control points, you shouldn't have to try and teleport in units to the opponents start zone. One of the things I liked doing in the video game was to run off after a control point not being actively contested and flip its control while hoping my defense held up in other areas. This board is spread out with more than one level and so it would be an ideal board for trying something like that out on.

So, possibly scoot the two in the start zones out just a little bit? Then we can start testing it with the latest rule set. I think we are pretty close to having the rule set where we want it too.
 
Re: The Design Holocron of Jedi Temple of Coruscant

@Yodaking, just looking at this one. I may move the points around a touch more and also move the bacta tank as well to reflect what you did with the Death Star throne room. I'm thinking the spawn glyph should come down off that middle platform. I'm also going to move the bacta tank a little bit.
 
Re: The Design Holocron of Jedi Temple of Coruscant

I'll update this one tonight as well. I am going to move a couple things around and finish it up.
 
Re: The Design Holocron of Jedi Temple of Coruscant

Are your proposed glyph spots the ones in the current VS file?
 
Re: The Design Holocron of Jedi Temple of Coruscant

No. Ill be moving them to similar locations like how you arranged the ones on the throne room.
 
Re: The Design Holocron of Jedi Temple of Coruscant

BIO needed here as well. If no one wants to I'll come up with something for the pdf.
 
Re: The Design Holocron of Jedi Temple of Coruscant

Bio - The Jedi Temple on Coruscant was known as a serene and peaceful place, and while mostly an accurate portrayal of how daily life inside the temple unfolded it was not always so. Over the years criminals and Sith affiliated cultist have broken in to, or outright invaded, the Temple in search of valuables, hidden knowledge, or objects of power. Then of course when the Empire rose to power and the Jedi purge began it became a war zone all onto itself. With the Jedi no longer there to protect their secrets, the temple was sacked and looted time and time again by one organization and then another. All of who were convinced they could locate and access the secret vault of Jedi knowledge and artifacts rumored to be hidden within.
 
Re: The Design Holocron of Jedi Temple of Coruscant

Thanks for the help on these @Yodaking. I'm finishing up the second one now.:)
 
Re: The Design Holocron of Jedi Temple of Coruscant

No problem man. I'm happy to help out where I can and writing up the bio's is actually kind of fun.
 
Re: The Design Holocron of Jedi Temple of Coruscant

I'm finished with Mygeeto, and once I add this bio this one will be done too. Then just DSTR. I'll upload them to the sanctum first for you and porkins. I'll send Dan a pm with them.
