Amorphous Forest Map

Imagine a map without a set layout or clearly defined trails (save for MAYBE a couple little ones), yet loads of trees and rocks. The chokepoints are not purposely placed in, but rather wherever you can manage to control the map. There would be no set lines of sight, simply wherever you can peer through branches.

Of course, there could be little sheds and cabins scattered about, if only so there are landmarks for you to orient yourself, but the bulk of the map is foliage and rocks. Would this be an interesting thing to try or it is a -Yoink- idea?

Shameless bump. Git at me, monitors.

You mean something like a remake of Timberland? I’d like that.

eh i imagine timberland from CE or the slenderman game types from Halo 4

At this point I’d be happy with a huge corn field lol. Seriously bored with these maps. Remakes and forge maps ugh. We need something real and original. Yeah OP playing Endor would be awesome.

Is this a map your thinking about making? If so, I played someone’s heavily forested map and it had huge frame rate issues.

That sounds really cool man. I like the idea of patrolling the tree lines and trying to set up ambushes. Would add a few elevated positions for callouts of movement. And maybe a stream or waterfall somewhere to break up the map.

I’d play that map in a heartbeat.

I will try to make this map if you want me to, I’m not sure how good I’d be able to Forge without set pathways though, that sounds difficult.

Try filling the map with the filler first, you know trees, rocks, shrubs, and -Yoink- first. Like full no open space.
Then find the center and just fly to the edges deleting as you go. Keep doing that and double checking your trails from above. Add some intersections and forks and what not.
That should get the basic layout set then just tweak it and finish it up.

I suck at forge because I don’t have the patience I’m sure this will be a time consuming task.

I’m working on a forested map with a buddy (Not this map in question), and I haven’t run into too many issues. What canvas was it on? That may have something to do with it.

Alpine. There was a -Yoink- ton of trees. Also had thick fog effects.
