<div class="IPBDescription">work in progress</div> I hope some of you still know my first ns-map, which I released a long time ago. This map is another try to make a good map for Natural-Selection and my last for the Half-Life-1-Engine. I haven't played ns since a long time ago so I decided to make a combat-map.

Story
------
You are on a planet, which was used to get raw materials, but now is abandoned, because there weren't as much of them as the mining companies thought. The aliens got into one of the planets buildings to find informations about the human race. Well, there are no informations, but the marines want to banish them, because of hatred <!--emo&;)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/wink-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    I like...looks good...I do wish that every alien/distant planet didn't have red sky. Why not a pretty blue or orange or something. I think red is so cliched..

    Looks nice, very good. How about some one who is a skilled Creative Writer give this guy help with his background story?

    TBH i think we need to see more screenshots or have a beta map to tell you more..

    But keep at it!

    Beta 2 is now available with better gameplay (chances for aliens) and atmospherical improvments, like steam or sparks:

    That last shot in your first post reminds me of co_niveus. It looks good, but maybe a bit dark.
  • CrispyCrispy Jaded GD Join Date: 2004-08-22 Member: 30793Members, Constellation
    I'll have a shot at the backstory and post it here. It'll give me something to do while I've got writer's block for Citadel Utopia.

    Perhaps an entry for the NS Mapping Forum custom mappack?

    I'd say if it doesn't go official it certainly looks good enough to provide some good entertainment for players who want a break from the official maps.
