this is a MvM map based on ctf-suddendrop for unreal tournament. its extremely basic, so dont say OMG BOXY!
i had the author contact me on porting it to duke3d saying it looked great, also he said he didnt mind if i ported it to another game.
since the ut version was made entirely out of this horrid grey brick texture, i expanded on that and used egyptian theme textures. the map is about 75% done, still have some work to do on the elevators and the top of the map.
the center of the map

the bottom of the shaft looking towards the top.

the pool that prevents you from being incorperated into the floor if you fall, and the elevator to the middle room in the first picture

its basically a MvM funmap, i dont really plan on making it look anywhere near as good as some of these other maps, probably because i lack the talent to <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo-->

Why can't we say it? It just is boxy. Oh, and it is damn ugly. Seriously: there's nothing special about this.
Well, it is. What do you *want* us to say? <!--emo&???--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/confused-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='confused-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->
Please don't insult a great game. Its like the Doom Alpha hit HL engine <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo-->

i had a 3 hour playtest with about 24 people spanned out over that time (10 max player slots)
they all loved it, all except for the hall that goes from the back of one base to another. had to block it off a few times with entmod.
Hmm, maybe that's because it's too big and open!
It looks like crap, and just looks like crap, by the way, it looks like crap.
Peple don't like crap, espically mappers who spend weeks or months working on a map that doesn't get played while some **** comes in and makes a box in 15 minutes that gets played on crappy servers populated by 11 year olds.
Dude, you have some serious problems with the map if your getting that, try hint brushes or something. I'm not complaining or flaming about the map, but thats way to high for some boxes.

Wasn't my intention. Just the detail in this map doesn't surpass doom and thats what's bothering me about it, since it isn't 1993.
Btw 500-1000 r_speeds for this low detail map is bad brushwork and usage of vis-blocking <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/style_images/TSA_Skin-975/icon2.gif' border='0' alt='user posted image' />
Is that why it's called co_suddendrop? ::rolleyes::

Because all of the sudden, YOU DROP :o

I know how you feel...
and I was a naive to think that this kind of ... thing (never ever use the term "map" for such again!) will just die after the co-mode showed up and "flashbanged" us with loads of detailed maps.
I was wrong.
sad.
very sad.
and the last time i checked this was the mapping forum, not the flaming forum, so if you dont have something nice to say then shut the hell up.

We're just pointing out that your map looks like a big pile of crap <!--emo&;)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/wink-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->.
uh... so... hold on, you were remaking bast (lol) because I did a **** job and it wasn't atmospheric anymore, right?

What a brilliant argument you have going there.
