DM-BloodandIron is the paradigm for death match. It's designed for 2-6 players, has good framerates, and will keep your fingers very active.
This little gem features plenty of z-axis spots. You are always looking up or down while the flak flies around you. There are no lifts, so you can either use ramps, stairs, or jump to get where you're going. See-through bars on some walls allow you to see who is coming, but it's difficult to use any of the geometry to your advantage, which makes for great play.
The textures were a mix of this and that, giving the place an industrial feel. The map doesn't look spectacular, but the author, Spokk, didn't do that badly either. There's plenty of concrete block, steel, industrial light fixtures, modern panel, crates, and a gloomy sky above.
The bots worked very well. I had my hands full trying to beat them, and trying to guess their next move. The item placement was also correct for the most part: It always seemed like I had to keep moving and hunting for weapons and health.
The lighting was fine: mostly white, with some subtle reds from the sky. Work went into light radii to help create a good atmosphere. There are quite a few subtle ambient sounds, and some music. |

| IndySkyz 07-01-2005 08:26 AM MDT | Rating: 7 | | Yes Red Fist you are right, played this map many times online back in the old days, and as you can see a simplistic box construction map can still be great for dm, ofcourse its not the pretiest to look at and there is no atmosphere to speak of, but WTF does that matter when you are fragging you buds to pieces, I think the guys who want great looks and atmosphere should stick to SP or MH maps and leave the DM mappage to guys like this.
