For what it's worth Bud Bundy Cliffy B gave DM-Affinity 0wnage a couple months ago for making old tired textures look new again. And indeed it does: there's some great artwork in this old factory layout, a design concept that's become quite a clichÈ in the UT map archive. If I really wanted to be picky I'd say that there's a couple flags that feel too new to be in an old factory such as this, but that's just petty talk. The pluses go beyond the textures too; Lighting is well thought out and always justified, and the game flow is very smooth.
Bots are sometimes okay, sometimes not; they tend to do a Smeagol-and-the-Volcano deal around the waterfall, flaunting their new Rocket Launcher for a bit before falling in. They camp as well, which was the author's intent, but at one spawn point they'll immediately turn around and run into a wall for a while. Framerates are very questionable in parts, especially around the shallow water bit (see lower screenshot).
Maybe not an absolute must-have, but you won't be sorry if you keep it. |

| Someguy | Rating: 8.5 | | lol bud bundy! take that cliff brazinksi! cool level tho the framerates/bots kill it real nice. i liked the little style rushes like the minigun on the barrel. looks very 1337.
| Agent X | Rating: 8.5 | | Now this is a good map. At least compared to several other high rated maps of late.
| Deathwing | Rating: 7.5 | | Good map, but I never could figure out how it got Ownage.
| Shock6822 | Rating: 7.5 | | Very good gameplay, but looks could be improved
| Blooddog_sweden | Rating: 9 | | Amazing map,I agree with CliffyB,borring textures looks cool.
| fragswill | Rating: 6 | | Never liked dm-sewer..
| Lophead | Rating: 8 | | Of a solid and proffessional quality, I agree with you on this one neko.
| DRT-Maverick | Rating: 9 | | The map rocks, and for once, the lighting feels... right. :) I enjoyed actually losing to bots for once, a real challenge, though the slime at the bottom of the waterfall in the building was a little annoying, should have done more with that area.
| Chris_Snow | Rating: 8.5 | | Nice Map. The theme was awesom as well as the design!
| David 'DAVIDM' Münnich | Rating: 7 | | the original map had better lighting and gameplay, the rest is the same
| Geddy Lee | Rating: 7 | | Anyone ever notice how the letter 3 looks like butt-checks?
| Leto II | Rating: 8 | | cool overall map, will never disappear from my hard disk, like all other maps i rated above 8 and above of course :)
| gyokusai 11-23-2003 08:20 PM MST | Rating: 8 | | Cool map. Only the bots are a little bit too easy.
| Jez 01-23-2004 05:02 PM MST | Rating: 8 | | Great industrial map. Only thing I didn't like was the deep water as it slows down gameplay. Ankle-deep water is fine though (splish splash etc, lol)
