We should have some.

A map where most of the level is based ontop of water, and a map-specific lifeform.

Yeaaaah... It would jump above water and have a pushback bite that would stun marines, causing them to fall into water and sink. So if they chain them they'll drown the marine.

Yeaaah... Not going to happen lol.

Your turn! Fantasize!

P.S. Ooh, remember the underwater scene from one of the aliens? We need one of those.

    On Docking I believe, there are a couple posters for a giant floating boat city. (Yeah I run around the map looking at nerdy stuff like that)

    They should have a map where that boat inevitably gets infested and massacred by Kharaa and our noble space marine are sent into the space Titanic to....most likely die horribly.

    Atlantis from Stargate Atlantis = giant floating city. The puddle jumpers already seem to match the marines tech style

    <a href="http://www.unknownworlds.com/ns2/wiki/images/1/1a/Mineshaft.jpg" target="_blank">Mineshaft</a> has some, but it only looks convincing on the waterfall, not the water that spreads horizontally over a surface (in my opinion, that is).

    Yah. Sounds good idea but for gorges to stay viable in those maps I suggest that they get advanced evolution to get snorkels so they too can enter the waters!

    having ocean maps where most of the map is covered with water, like 50% of resource towers are on land and 50% is underwater, marines could get snorkler upgrade and underwater machinegun upgrade, and aliens could have underwater lifeform wich would only cost 10res because skulks would probably suck underwater.

    sounds cool.

    Due to lack of knife, underwater knife fighting not possible. So they would mainly be using trained attack dolphins.

    Underwater map where taking out the power makes the water control fail in that area and floods that area for two minutes. Marines can't go into the water but aliens can. Only parts of the area can marines stay in.
