This is a a discussion topic for the map "dm_subway" by Belgarion which can be found here

Map description:

The map is pretty much finished, I just don't want to make the mistake of releasing a map that has not been properly tested again. It happened once before and was largely overlooked. So, here it is. If you'd like to host it on a server and test it out for me I'd be more than thrilled to hear about it. Contact

Very spooky! I like...
Lighting suits it and all I can say is add more detail in the second pic.

Wow, what a great-looking map. I don't think the second screen needs more details. It looks better than some of the DM maps Valve released (i.e. dm_runoff).

I'll take it for a spin tonight.

Its not getting many because people are asleep you fool, and not everyone comments! Looks very good though, my only suggestion is the wall texture, looks very bland in 3rd screenshot.

Now that I think of it, you need a more original name... Pretty obvious theres gunna be 100's of other maps with the same name!

U should either be a pro mapper or a pro photographer, hope the rest of unseen areas are just as nice :)
and yes dm_subway is very generic, its a shame to give such a great piece of work such a thoughtless name that will get it confused with other.... "less good ;)" attempts

SHeeP - "U should either be a pro mapper or a pro photographer"

Ha. well, I'd like to think both. I do agree with Myrk, the far wall in pic 3 does need something to break up the monotony. I'll try to think of something for beta 2. Right now I'm just waiting on beta testing. Again.. server.. if anyone wants to setup a playtest I'd love to hear about it.

Hibame has graciously let me upload b1 to his server ( 24.94.236.56:27015 ), so head over there if you like to try it out. Ping may not be great, but at least it's a server.

Thanks for all the kind words everyone. Glad to know people like it.
