Description
Welcome to Hivemind!

Hivemind is a Standard, Symmetrical Capture the Flag map set in a vast, quiet forest under a beautiful sunset. As it turns out though, this forest isn't as quiet as it appears to be on the surface, as both RED and BLU have decided that this would be the perfect spot to setup shop for supposed "Honey farms." Deep inside their facilities though lay strange, gigantic hive machines. What could they possibly be for? Only one way to find out, and that's by capturing the flag.

Hivemind is oriented towards a more relaxed player, running and gunning and legging it to the flag when they know deep down they just want to shoot their gun and get frags. The map's design is inspired by the complex simplicity that Team Fortress Classic maps and earlier TF2 custom maps really wanted to lean into, with of course the addition of (gasp) modern technology! Whether you want to face the tough challenge of capturing the flag, or simply zone out and get an awesome killstreak, Hivemind's quality combat will keep you playing for hours!


Part of the Humble Bumble Community Map Pack!

There's a bug with the RED resupply cabinet where it doesn't work in spawn because it's BLU coded.

There better be a "Bumble Beenie" hidden somewhere in the map, like hanging off of a rack or something.

While I haven't tried it with bots I've observed the same problem when looking around the map.
Spawn is just one (albeit probably the biggest) problem point. If you put a sentry inside at the wall at the main entrance it will cover every access route and be susceptible to at most splash damage.

Similarly, the main bridge is a point all paths converge on. Put a sentry on the top towards your spawn and it'll cover the entire area very well and will be a bit challenging to put down.

Further each side has a large barrel with no collision that hides a teleporter and player fully while standing upright - fun for ninjaneering but could be frustrating to play against

Just tested a match on a server with bots, this map really does not seem good, you have to pass through the enemy spawn to get to the intel, and the rest of the layout is just really boring

Commenting on a map without having played it has always seemed like a strange case to me, but... the minor(?) thing that comes to mind here would be that this map could favour right-handed players since you're always running to the left.

Aesthetic-wise I'd say I like it. It has a mountain-lab-like feel to it. Except for the intel room. That hive is reminiscent of Winney-the-pooh. Maybe make it darker and/or add a subtle honeycomb structure to it?

I thought this series of maps was going to go A-B-C-D with names but no big deal ahaha. Still looks pretty nice.
