Reviewer AMmayhem Awe Score:  0.5/3 Date 07-23-2003 Build Score:  0.5/3 Review Schema Cast Score:  1.0/3 User Point:  +1 Overall Score:  3.0/10 AWE: 0.5 Ug, where do I begin? There are some nice floor textures used, but theyre on the wall and not the floor. Other CTF red and blue textures are used throughout on the wall too. No real continuity on texturing, other than mostly gray textures. Best texturing was done in the skybox, which is just stars... There are a couple of light sources, but mostly flat lighting in the central room, the outer hallways have various ligting colors and flickers. Theres just light actors placed where light is needed. Architecture needs work, a lot of rectangles cut to give access to more boxy hallways. Not everything is at right angles, which is good, the halls are angled to encircle the main room. There is one mover in the map, which consists of the entire floor of a side room. Supports are placed well underneath, but top of the elevator is set even with the floor beneath, so you have to jump on the floor to get it to rise instead of just walking on it. There are a couple lava pits, but theyre covered with glass, which is very hard to see as its flush with the floor and the ceiling. Yes, thats right, there is lava flowing above you in one of the halls, which is missing an invisible collision hull to keep you from shooting up into it; but it doesnt get in the way of gameplay. BUILD: 0.5 The map doesnt provide much for sounds, although there are a couple humming noises located throughout the map. Brush work looks a little sloppy, some railing arent aligned well leaving gaps. No real fancy brushwork either, mostly cubes, cylinders, and a sphere, but there is one room that looks as if the author used the 2D editor to create. Again there is one mover, which isnt located well. One small hallway has stronger gravity and some fog in it, and is zoned off well. Another good thing is I didnt find any BSP errors or HOM effects. CAST: 1 The bots can certainly play the map well, although there is a small platform where the shield belt is that doesnt have any way for the bots to get to. Other than that platform, the bots do use all of the items in the map including health and weapons. Which leads to weapon placement, which isnt too bad, youll find a weapon and its ammunition will be just around the corner. Flow could be a little better as well, I found myself running in circles on the bottom level, and not getting back up to the top very often. SCORE: 2 Overall Im sure the author has learned many things in the creation of this map, which we all do as we build. Download it for kicks if you want, but Im sure it wont stay on your harddrive for long.

It´s no bad, but... 10 of puntuation? You´re crazy! m-streme 07-19-2003 04:37 AM MDT Rating: 7   It's not bad, but not that good either...

And unfortunatly, there will also be people like killa to comment on them and give them 10/10 : darth_weasel 07-24-2003 01:12 PM MDT Rating: 3   cool to see you're a reviewer anmayhem good first job anyways :) Ulukai 07-27-2003 05:41 AM MDT Rating: 10   Hi, this mini review is all about DM-*Spot* by evilmonkey. This review is awesome. My name is Ulukai, and I can't stop thinking about Evilmonkey. This map is cool. And by cool, I mean totally sweet. Facts: *Evilmonkeys are mammals *Evilmonkeys work on their maps ALL the time *The purpose of Evilmonkeys is to make maps like this for killa to jack off to This map can kick the ass of any map it wants! Evilmonkey worked on this map ALL the time and didn't even think twice about it. This guy is so crazy and awesome that he wears the same EPIC GAEMS T-shirt ALL the time. I heard there was an evilmonkey eating at a diner, and when some dude dropped the spoon evilmonkey just deleted his whole map. My friend Shane said that he saw an evilmonkey totally stop pathnoding for a kid because the kid opened a window. AND THAT'S WHAT I CALL REAL ULTIMATE POWER! If you don't believe that evilmonkey has real ultimate power you better get a life right now or he'll winnuke your PC!!! I's an easy choice, if you ask me. Evilmonkey is soooooo sweet I want to crap my pants. I can't believe it sometimes, but I feel it inside my heart. This guy is totally awsome and that's a fact. I love evilmonkey with all of my body (including my pee pee) www.realultimatepower.net BeWilderBeest 07-27-2003 07:53 AM MDT Rating: 2   I want Ulukai to bear my children. Can you tell I'm a Ulukai fanboy? I'd like to get him and Hourences in bed for a threesome. But not DavidM cause he's stinky. SirTahngarth 07-27-2003 01:31 PM MDT Rating: 0   No comment. Well its too late to say that. but No Comment. Mxtrmntr 08-20-2003 05:13 PM MDT Rating: 2   It's pretty funny to see ratings of 10 for this map; the layout is far from being able to provide decent gameplay, the theme is close to being non-existant, and the map looks rather boring. Also, issues like the "giant" lift don't exactly help this map. Shao 10-10-2003 08:45 PM MDT Rating: 0   I will Give a Extra -10 For this map.
