Be more descriptive please.

What would you desire in this lounge?

Probably room for more shit like this

^ Might be that but perhaps a room where they can also do long admin sits and meetings without interruption

Ideas-
An map that has a similar size to v2d if not bigger, yet not like v2p or Rockford size.
Office buildings left empty for RP
Empty buildings for shops RP etc 
A corlone estate with better designed building, possibly some higher end buildings since they may be wealthy
Well designed pavements
Bus stops along with a bus station where busses can park up, refule and possibly pick people up.
Gas/Petrol station area similar to v2d
Cub foods and flea market same size as v2d
Hotel in the map somewhere
Empty Car Dealership
Bank in the city e.g Bank of America with a live feed of the stocks inside the building on the walls
Industrial area that have buildings car packing areas like v33x
More eye pleasing features e.g rocks, trees, signs, grass etc etc
The slums, basically a run down place where perhaps the dealers deal weed like 2d
City electricity cables in the air connecting from pole to pole to give it a realistic look
A car pack in the city or just outside the city somewhere where you can park up
Lake for fishers with rocks etc in the lake? 

I'll try think of more later.

To help, place a clear image of what you would like your idea to look like. This will help us see how you like the building
to be made and take inspiration from that image.

This image shows three different models. I will make a poll on this thread to see how players would like the map to be made.

A custom city map? Good luck with that - I mean it takes experienced map makers such as Sgt Sickness months/years to create a good looking map. If this ever did leave the drawing board it'd be abandoned in less than a month.

Well Project has already started working on a custom Fire Station. I see no reason why a couple of mappers could make a custom map? Can be done.

It could be done if the community was committed to it, but I do share Griim's concerns. I mean look at the stock exchange, a great idea which was decently carried out, but has been ignored really for the last 2 months.

That is something that was handled by a couple of staff though. This is something that can be done by the whole community if they were committed.

How many people here actually know how to use Hammer and have the knowledge to get a final product to the standard of the Evocity maps? I'm guessing very few if any at all. So what you'll have is a team of people who are inexperienced with hammer but want to make one of the most difficult and time consuming types of maps as their first project. Good luck with managing a team like that.
On top of that you'll need people who can create custom 3D models and textures.
I just don't think you're realizing just how difficult this is - there's a reason why there's only a couple of good city maps on GMod.

It can be done, it will just be long winded and take months perhaps a year or more to make. I like the concept up I think if we found a updated 2d or someone could work on updating 2d then it would be a less long winded trip.

Well I have a vmf of v2d and also v33x. So even if the map was a remake of one of these two maps. It could be done quicker?

That's not how it works, I mean Evocity 3 has been in development for more than 3-4 years and it's still being done to perfection.

Well if you look on the Evocity page, it pretty much looks like they have not bothered with it that much recently. There is about 2 pages that have been done and not touched for years.
