Map Description

Created by me (Twist) I must admit if you go outside the dome its sloppy, very sloppy..lol but I threw this together and there is NO lag and is really a kick ass map, that is great for DM at any grav setting.. I play Low grav (135) but It plays well on 600. DOWNLOAD THIS MAP FORSURE, if your just wanting to play a fun map without being critical, this is it.. besides you cant see my mess unless your in NO CLIP or editing it which like all my maps, your welcome to do.. Its all about keeping the game going..lol Have Fun.. you wont regret this one...

This is a killbox.

Yo gvault, just want to let you know that there is nothing wrong with what your doing (making killbox maps and uploading them here) but the thing with killbox maps is:
  • There are so many in existence both here and on fpsbanana and heaps of other places.
  • Pretty much anyone can make them.
  • Most people aren't interested in them.
  • They are not appealing.
  • Most of them are terrible (poorly thought out, little effort, bad decisions) in all aspects including gameplay.
Looking at the screenshots, it's a fairly open area which isn't really what you want in a Half-Life 2 multiplayer level - walking speed is slow, no vehicles, weapons are more focused on short to medium ranged gameplay - with an open area like that, your going to get pretty dull gameplay.

Make the snow a displacement surface and add some height variation in there to make things more interesting and put some cover in there as well, maybe some crates (non breakable) or concrete blocks half buried in the snow, just spice things up.

Maybe you could add some arbitrary railings or cover on the side of that pathway in the air and do some things there to.

Lastly, look here. :D

what advice? The comment made on my last map.. thats no advice, thats someone who wants me to get all creative, im not here for that. Im here to throw these up here on the site and then back to the game to play.
I wouldnt post em if they were'nt playable. And like I said before, its just another map for some to choose from.
