Does it still have vehicles?
I'm trying as best as I can to keep 3 mongooses, 2 ghosts, 1 tank, and 1 wraith on the map. Phase 2 has to have light vehicle combat between the gooses and ghosts, and phase 3 is when the tanks come in.
Designing phase 1 is a challenge cause when the mongooses spawn it means the city becomes twice as small as it was to the player. So I have to use a lot of space for phase 2 and 3 so it doesn't seem like there's no where to drive.
phase 1 appears to be large in the blueprint because of the way the spawns are set up. i needed to safe spawn the ODSTs and give them enough path options so that they cannot be spawn camped and they can still move around if they're down a player or two. To do that, Brutes had to be placed considerably far away from their spawns, making Phase 1 appear large.
The trick at that point is to make sure they don't spawn too far away from the phase 1 objective. Conversely, they can't spawn too close, or it'll be too easy to defend. Defenders should be punished for death greater than Attackers should, so I think having further spawns then say Spire or Boneyard is the best way to solve this.
But now I'm worried about budget. I don't appear to be using a lot of walls in phase 1 or 2. It seems heavy on brace larges though, which will eat up budget fast.
