  • One of my favorite nexuiz DM maps, interesting design and good items.

    <Diablo> the nex is a "game modification"
    <Diablo> quake1 never had a weapon like that.
    <Vordreller> there was no need for anything over 4GB untill Vista came along

  • I love that map, too. It should actually be considered for the 2on2 TDM mappool. However, before this, the item layout should be reviewed/corrected.

  • I don't know why I don't like this map. Is it its lame design? Is it too big? Am I confused by its geometry? Am I kinda lagging there? Or everything? No, I really cannot say I like it.

  • In general, I like this map. A lot of us play it pretty regularly for 3v3 TDM. The only thing I would change is to remove either quad or shield, because having both is just a bit too much, IMO.

    The map is ugly and certainly could stand to have better textures as well as some smoother edges, and there are a couple areas of the map that could be changed or removed because they seem a bit pointless (like the two half rooms below the megahealth spot...what are they there for?) but it is functionally a pretty good map. It's one of the best 2v2 or 3v3 TDM maps that we have available.

    If there were a revision of this map, I would like to see it "enhanced" with some smoother edges and more ramp jumps to help with movement. I would remove the shield (or the quad) and have the power item (shield or quad) only in that large room. I would move the megahealth to where the shield was and find something else to replace the megahealth spot (like an armor or a weapon).

    It's not a good public DM map because the nex and RL are hidden and only accessible via laser jumping. I think public DM maps should be setup where any important items are accessible for newer players. For TDM, it works though.

  • This map is indeed great for TDM, we've had some nice games on it. I can't agree nor disagree about removing one of the powerups. But If I were to remove one, it would be the shield. This maps really needs the quad IMO otherwise players would be all over the place without something to focus on, ie no teamplay.

    The design is a bit boring, but it flows pretty well. Could definitely use better textures.

  • I don't really like this map much.

    im with urmel on this one, it also just seems like a rectangular box with obstacles stuck in the way.

    Item placement is pretty bad in general. and by items i mean items not weapons.

    shield is in a nice place, but 2 armours with health packs at the far end right next to each other...?

    one good point i can think of is that the nex is at the other side of the map which is correct so you atleast have to travel over to get it.

    I just really dislike all these obstacle things :)

    this map is best played 2on2 however, when moving as a pair throughout the whole map and not just wandering off in TDM (i played with nifrek on it once and paired up and got nice control, and it is a nice map for getting map-control i wont deny that)


    i guess im 50/50 with it still, it's like nexdmlc2, ok map but it needs re-working for item placements.
