****The main ready room is from the first map I ever made.

Personal Review: I played a full game on the DMD server and it lasted 50 minutes, ending with the Marine team conceding. In my experience, most maps are Marine dominated and barely make it to 15 minutes. I'm hinting that it's a balanced map, but it's still in the early stages.

But the Caged ready room still needs some tweaks before it's done! xD (I actually detailed a bland wall just this past build.)

Looking forward to playing this.

The main thing I remember from the games we played on DMD were just the performance things and the need for some more obstacles in the otherwise open rooms/halls to make alien engaging easier.

It is a clever idea and it works impressively well.

More props and vents have been added to help with alien engagements. Performance issues like fps drops and high draw calls are to be fixed next.

WiseChoices

Ok, draw calls have been dramatically reduced, and added a couple more props.

The vent in Mineshaft is exploitable if marines start there, a gorge can run up there in the beginning of the game and spit the base from safety.

I really quite like this map. It seems it was a bit marine friendly with a lack of stuff for aliens to hide behind.

"a bit"

A lot

ChrisStark

Cool idea! Looking forward to play it when itis ready.

Lots of updates. Alien side of the map is a lot darker. There are a lot more props to hide behind. The ventilation system can be very alien friendly, if you understand how to use it. I added a lot of motion activated doors to reduce marine shooting distance. The cave hole above the marine start is accessible for marines by simply hopping up the rock face. Oh, and there is a secret room.
