    ppl found out that the winning team is the team that secures the 2 res right outside of Marine Spawn first wich makes the gameplay a little bit boring.
    The map is really small too making it "different" to handle.
    Most maps are perfectly ballanced with 10 ppl on each side. This map is perfect with 6 ppl on each side.

    Yes, Europa is a small map, but that's not really a problem. There are big and small maps for most other big mods, so its okay for there to be some for NS.

    But, Europa was lost when Plaguebearer's hard drives broke, so there won't be any changes to the version he released way back when.

    HOWEVER...

    I have managed to recover the source off of a drive that I had in my machine for a short period of time, and removed and set aside. I had forgotten that I'd designated that drive to hold all my temp files!

    So recently when I reinstalled my OS, I found this drive and popped it in to see what was on it, and BEHOLD, Europa Source.

    So, I spent a day (the 16th, to be exact) adding a lot of stuff to the map, shuffling things around, etc:

    Blue-highlit areas are the rooms I added and/or significantly changed old rooms.

    The dual res in Cargo is gone now, too.

    Mainly, it needs playtesting. It's only been played once, with only about 4-5 people.

    Yes, I use Quark, I have used Quark since it was first released as QuakeMap.

    Well, Quark got some good stuff even if it don't make sense at first sight <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->
