2024 Spring AQ2 MapjamWelcome to the 2024 Spring AQ2 Mapjam!
Are you ready to embark on a creative journey to shape the battlegrounds of Action Quake II? This event is not just a contest; it's a collaborative effort bringing together mappers from all corners of the community to craft new and exciting maps for AQ2.
Info Megathread Must Read: Read this forum post for a deep dive on requirements, ideas and format.
Event Details:
- Dates: April 15th, 2024 - May 31st, 2024
- Theme: The overarching theme of Action Quake II is 'an action movie without the cost of a ticket.' Think of iconic settings from action films - gritty urban environments, intense showdowns in city streets, daring escapes through jungles, and heart-pounding pursuits in bustling casinos. Your maps should embody this theme, providing players with thrilling scenarios straight out of their favorite action flicks.
Guidelines:
- AQ2 is a multiplayer-focused game, so no monster spawns. However, feel free to incorporate world hurt brushes such as spikes, lava, or spinning fan blades to add an extra layer of danger.
- Common themes include offices, cityscapes, mountain bases, jungles, encampments, neighborhoods, and more. Let your imagination run wild within these settings, creating dynamic and immersive environments for players to explore.
- Take inspiration from iconic movie locations like the Nakatomi Building from Die Hard, the jungles from Rambo and Predator, the casinos from Casino Royale and Ocean's 11, and the city/street areas from Heat and John Wick. Put your own spin on these settings, delivering fresh and exciting experiences for AQ2 players.
Submission Process:
- Submit your maps by May 31st, 2024, for consideration. You can share your creations on the AQ2World Discord channel, where we have several seasoned mappers available for questions, help and map testing.
- After the submission date, selected maps may be included in the AQtion release on Steam and distributed to various map-sharing sites across the web.
Join the Action:
Whether you're a seasoned mapper or a newcomer looking to make your mark, we welcome your participation in this collaborative endeavor. Remember, this event is about collaboration, creativity, and celebrating the spirit of action-packed gaming. So, grab your mapping tools, unleash your imagination, and let's create some unforgettable maps for Action Quake II!
