<div class="IPBDescription">no where to go</div> i must say that ns_origin is the worst map to come with the patch. the intricate tunnel networks and hubs are nice, but it leaves onos with no way to go alot of the times. even with the new map system, i find myself getting into "dead ends" a lot of the time simply because i cannot fit into a short hall. a spot next to the furnace comes to mind.
and then there are the little elevators that insta-kill you now if you're caught under it. if you're in a major firefight and you accidentally back up into an elevator shaft as it goes down and it squishes you, 100 res down the drain.
i understand that there was another post about this earlier, but it turned into an 8 page spam about gorges and bilebomb. i want an unadulterated thread about origin and onos manueverability. its just impossible to get anywhere on that map without taking massive detours that often bring you deep into enemy territory and through turret farms. if a hive is under attack you can forget about getting there on time. and when you're trapped in a "dead end" cause of a small hall then you're pretty much dead until the marines hunt you down. plz fix. i'm sure many others will agree with me. if you're going to be this restrictive about onos movement then either (a) fades need to be buffed or (b) partially limit movement of heavy armors

Gestate into a skulk, run over there, and gestate into an onos ha ha ha.
But yea the halls in some areas of that map could use a bit of an enlargment.
Marines can reach everything walking.
Its the gorges fault not building movements when they have that left hive.
Killing elevators are evil.
Hives having only 1,5 walking-size path to them make this map evil in endgame when you have no movements, but easyer in early and mid game for skulk ambushes and gorge defense.
I agree with origin having the most complex vents and z-axis changings, making it as complicate as bast. Its a highly strategical map. but not unfair.
Bast haters will hate origin too, cus they dont like complicate maps.
But i like origin, its a GREAT map, and I am not just saying this for being in its credits <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->
