This is a smaller map fit for 4-10 players. More can fit in, of course. There's enough spawn points for everyone.
There's a top level which is a small city arena area, two sets of stairs on opposite sides lead down to a lower level that is a small subway station with a working train that rolls through the station every 15-20 seconds or so unless you press the button in the booth to turn it off. The train pushes the player into a forcefield causing death.
The architechture for the subway station is loosely, very loosely, based on a station in Montreal that I spent about 5 minutes in and can't remember the name of it. But it looked real cool.
Secrets: You can phys-jump onto the roof of the center building, there's a crossbow and two armor batteries up there. Best way to do it is to use the radiator.

Wait, I don't get it. You're probably thinking of bushes, not trees... unless things are drastically different in Ireland :razz:

mouse, your power lines are too thick! put them down to about a
"2" width. Think of your map as a beatiful girl. Now think of the power
lines as her eyebrows. You dont want your woman to have huge bushy
eyebrows do you? Hell,no! You love the finely tweezed eyebrows that
only the most meticulous girl can have! :biggrin:
LOL Nickelplate. I can't say I thought of my powerlines like that until you said that.
"Those powerlines look very Eastern European"

Servers not up at the moment I guess, I need to talk to the person running it.
You're right, there are a lot of city maps. I think part of it
has to do with the textures for HL2 being made for outdoors levels
rather than the indoors labyrinth of HL1. Also, now it's possible
for someone to make a pretty realistic city and that is pretty tempting
to some people. This map started out as just the subway part and
I thought to myself, "why not make it so you could go above
ground". The city isn't very extensive and serves more as a
backdrop to a mini-arena area. When I started this map at the
beginning of December, most of the maps that were around were
killboxes. Really in the last two weeks there has been a lot of
city maps announced or released.
It seems a lot of maps these days are city based and i see yours and think it looks ok but its hard to explain but i have this weird feeling about your first pic like your buildings are floating around the map :/
All in all its pretty good i want to see it whats server ip?
