HalongForBetterPlaying
This was my very first published Vietcong map. It’s not a groundbreaking piece but rather a simple extension of the original Halong Port map, adding access to mountains that were previously unreachable using elevated platforms. The environment design is worse than basic, as this was my first project.
For me, the project is mainly a nostalgic milestone. During its development, I managed to bring four of my closest classmates into the game. We initially played the map locally over LAN, and I iterated on it based on their playtesting feedback, eventually reaching version 11.
Their support motivated me to set up my first public server, where I released the map. This experience taught me the importance of playtesting before release, as well as continuing to update a project afterward when friction points appear.
The map was primarily designed for DM mode.
As of 2026, the map can still occasionally be spotted on some active servers.
