I have been working on ns_precinct for over a month now, and it is looking good! Unfortunately, the map might not be ready by this friday. If ns_precinct is not ready by friday, I will work very hard on it, just in case another playtest takes place (add-on map pack). I hope all you other ns mappers are having better luck than me. So long!

    Do you have any screenshots you can show us?  I know it might be good for you to get some feedback now.

    Let me tell you the story of ns_precinct:
       It is the year 3050. Mankind discovered alien life nearly 1000 years earlier, when a resonance cascade scenario took place in the Black Mesa Research Facility. The gateway to Xen has ben shut forever, but a new threat to mankind crawls out of hiding. On space-frigate Domination...
       [INCOMING TRANSMISSION]
    "Requesting reinforcements! I repeat, requesting reinforcements! This is Col. Daemon, calling from the Hilkon Precinct on Telnoss. Alien interlopers have breached the facility walls, and have started to kill all human-beings inside the facility! Most of the prisoners are dead, and more are probably being killed as we speak. We need reinforcements, ######, and we need them now!...BRRZZZZT...No! No, stay back! Stay back, damn you! AAAAAHHH...BRRZZZZT...HHHHH...BRRZZZZT..."
       [END TRANSMISSION]
    A squad of mankind's roughest marines have been sent in to exterminate this new threat. They are probably dead by now, and you and the rest of mankind's military are the only hope mankind has. <!--emo&:asrifle:--><img src="http://www.natural-selection.org/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/asrifle.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':asrifle:'><!--endemo-->  <!--emo&:pudgy:--><img src="http://www.natural-selection.org/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/pudgy.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':pudgy:'><!--endemo-->

    I don't have screenshots, since the level isn't done yet. I still have to add one more area for the third hive, but until then I will not take screenshots. I want my level to surprise everyone. If my level does not make it (I'm pretty sure it will make it), I will take several screenshots for the NS community to see. I just want my level to be a surprise. If you would like, though, I will work non-stop on the level for the rest of the week, taking breaks only for lunch, dinner, sleeping, and a max of 1 hour of outdoor activity. I have dedicated myself to this level from the start, and I will work on it until it is done.

    Do you mean put it into my map as a pre-game sequence?

    Well I refer to it as a back ground story, but that makes the same sense. A back story is a story that explains the settings, sometimes name(of the map) and(mabey) some land marks.

    An example could be a map that's really a sub. Mabey some Aliens have stoed away in the cargo hold. And they are planning on stealing a missle that it's holding. Then the Marines find out, and set a full perimeter of the place.

    'No screenshots since the map's not done yet'

    You mean you haven't even sealed off the holes with just plain big cubes, and compiled it, to test how it looked ingame?

    I, erm, hope that's not true <!--emo&:)--><img src="http://www.natural-selection.org/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'><!--endemo-->

    And, if it's not, you could get screenshots from there.

    Oh yeah,

    And good luck with making the deadline, unless you really don't think that'll make it.
