Snipers Bald + Locks
Want to experience the nostalgia of SC1 Brood Wars custom map: Snipers? Look no further!
- SC2 Snipers Team* (Epin3phrin3, APFetus, Mafu, Insidious, Sinaps, Sephiroth, Neanderthal, et. al.) would like to present: Snipers Bald + Locks!
Snipers Bald + Locks is a custom map for SC2 made using the Starcraft 2 Galaxy Map Editor. The map terrain is based off the original Snipers map from SC1. We wanted to bring back the nostalgia and competition that was the original Snipers map, BUT we wanted to add 2 new modes and a couple of additional details that will hopefully balance gameplay and make the map seem more EVOLVED.
Hot Team vs. Cold Team
Game Modes Available: -Capture the Flag (-ctf) -VIP (-vip) -Drone (-dr) -Tournament (-tr)
- Mode Timer allows for Player 1 to choose 1 of 4 different modes to play.
- Points are rewarded for vip rounds won, drone controlled, flag captures, and of course for kills.
Countless hours have gone into making the map including the terrain, triggers, and coming up with fresh new ideas. We've teamed up with old school snipers from SC1 to figure out what they want to keep from the old map as well as new ideas they'd like to see placed into the new one. Look for it on release of SC2!

Posted Jul 27, 2010This is ES-ForeShadow (created first original sniper bald maps and later the first lock only sniper maps for SC).
Looks good, however I need a new computer to run SC2 so I won't be able to play it.
A few details though:
I suppose you removed the teleport on the cliff as well?
For the middle-right side of the map, you could check my last sniper maps for a another good idea. However, middle right side is unfortunately rarely used.
Newer maps have a team switch after ½ the timer is down.
Timer was set at 30 mins but on fastest, so gameplay was actually ~22mins and not the full 30 mins duration.
Do ghosts in SC2 still react similar to the ghosts in the original SC (shoot delay mechanism) or they shoot like marines?
Just as information, what was your AKA you back in SC sniper maps?

Posted Jun 13, 2010Oh...almost forgot to announce the working Anti-Hack System that was finally put into the map today. A message will be displayed when a Map Hack is detected and the player will be kicked from the game. Happy sniping!
