    Bast.


    Need actors btw? I'm good. I used to play in a movie project, but they'd quit.

    I'd vote for Bast, Mineshaft, or (when it's out) Hydrosity. The last one has a lot of really interesting lighting and complex areas.

    Lost. We (marines) were losing and we sneaked into the gamma deck by fixing the lift and sieging the hive. They were sooo frustrated because they could see us perfectly but couldn't hit us. I think that would have made a great scene. It is a great map. A fight in the big Cargo Hive would be great too with heavies walking in on both sides,

    Although, I think Eclipse/Veil would look best.

    Seeing as they're just not as badly beaten up and can look good for the marine aspect.

    Mineshaft.
    I love that map for some reason.

    I think NS_Nothing would be a great scene!

    Are you guys going to go for all out rendering like Pre Selection? Or just use the engine with no changes?

  • aegixaegix Join Date: 2002-08-31 Member: 1256Members, NS1 Playtester
    Mineshaft... far and away the most atmospheric.

    Mineshaft or Bast.
    They both have an atmosphere that lends itself to intense sci-fi action far better than the other maps.
    Nothing that uses Wall_lab textures imho...too bright and cheery.

    Theres some really atmospheric parts of Lost and Nothing also.

    I would suggest taking peices of those 4 scince they all share a similar dark and dreary "aliens-esque" feel, but that would break the continuity of the NS universe. I imagine you want to stick to that...

    Why not write a new fan fic? or choose from the existing ones and then build a map around the story?

    NS_LOST.
    It says a lost ship, so the sorta script could be - Marines in a ship travelling to an allie spacestation, then suddenly the engine goes off and they cant control the ship, so its stuck and lost. the reason the engine was off is because "enter a hive location"(maybe the one with the weldable door? it has steam somewhere i believe.) was the engine room and the hive was built there and aliens destroyed it, marine gets sent there and gets killed ("Thompson are you there? hehe) the marines should also have to be ip destroyed and just the commander and someone else would be left, the marine thats left would run into the hall of newbs (readyroom secret, pm me if you want to know how to get in and know what it looks liike) and out the other end to another bit on top of pipes and cc built and all that <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->

    ns_lost.


    I'm sorry, but lost is the most confusing and complex map out there, it makes a perfect place to host a movie where lots of comebacks are possible.

    Best. Idea. EVER.

    Or at least your own map released publicly with the movie.

    You might want to stay away from ORIGIN because that map as the 'The humans were making a weapon of the aliens' feel that's in way too many alien vs. human movie (Alien Resurrection) and game (Alien vs. predator 1 + 2 ) ... (FOX SUCKS.) I would say hera though.

    seems like we will be going with bast, but keep voting
    Fixed forum link
    <a href='http://s2.invisionfree.com/Natural_Selection/index.php?act=idx' target='_blank'>http://s2.invisionfree.com/Natural_Selecti...dex.php?act=idx</a>

    We still need people to sign up and help with the script and voice acting. If you want to be a voice actor please do the audition here
    <a href='http://s2.invisionfree.com/Natural_Selection/index.php?showtopic=1' target='_blank'>http://s2.invisionfree.com/Natural_Selecti...php?showtopic=1</a>

    We also need modellers and animators

    And the movie will be set on one map, but dont think that will be it. For instance the long transparent tunnel on hera is very nice, as is the in space res node(that could be used to dock a shipship being just a lerk with a differed skin))

    Well, I think we got two experianced people to help us, Challenger and HypnoticJester, lets give them a hand. Now that the position is filled, we dont need your guys MASSIVE outpouring of volunteers <!--emo&???--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/confused.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='confused.gif'><!--endemo-->

    Still, we need people to do everything else. We have plenty of people, but when you relize its a 2 hour movie with scenes with ~30 marines and aliens clashing AND all the spectators we can cram to record the scenes(which by the way need to be writen, if you have suggestions go here <a href='http://s2.invisionfree.com/Natural_Selection/index.php?showforum=1)' target='_blank'>http://s2.invisionfree.com/Natural_Selecti...hp?showforum=1)</a>
    While also trying to budget the time of our voice talents which may or may not include the likes of Alan Alda, Certain membbers of AC/DC, and the Pope
