Reviewer Ironblayde Awe Score:  0.0/3 Date 07-06-2004 Build Score:  0.0/3 Review Schema Cast Score:  0.0/3 User Point:  +1 Overall Score:  1.0/10 Not since Sodom and Gomorrah has the world seen something quite this horrifying, and this may very well be worse. Spending my life as a pillar of salt actually sounds like a grand old time compared to playing this map. My usual thoroughness will not be necessary this time around. Just a few points: - Aside from one mesh (of an airplane, of all things), this is BSP only, and it's some of the worst BSP work you're ever likely to see. - It's completely unlit. There are a ton of lights sitting around, but if you actually build the lighting, almost the entire map turns black. - There is no screenshot or level summary in the LevelInfo. - There is no bot pathing. - There is no gameplay. - There is no God; this map proves it beyond a doubt. I suppose it's theoretically possible that someone out there might enjoy this map, but I consider that to be about as likely as Britney Spears winning a Nobel Prize for physics.

Additional to Yournan: I agree with Shadowlurker. As for flaming if you put a match near petrol you will get a huge explosion so it's best, in my opinion, to be very careful about naked flames! Mapper: The quality of this map is so questionable that, if people were brutally honest about it, you may be really upset. So instead you get stupid remarks (at least from me) instead of the hateful megaflame. Ironblayde 07-06-2004 08:01 AM MDT   Hehe, sorry, I couldn't help myself. For mapping tutorials and reference pages, see the UnrealWiki: http://wiki.beyondunreal.com/wiki/ For specific questions, try asking in the forums here at NC, or over at Unreal Playground: http://forums.unrealplayground.com Also it's a very good idea to ask someone, either privately or publicly on one of the aforementioned forums, to give your map a test run prior to releasing the final version of it. This will help you catch mistakes and improve your map, thus avoiding responses like the ones you've gotten here. :D Kaithofis 07-06-2004 02:13 PM MDT Rating: 1   Not this much? I expect this to become another AndAction or Stimulating Anyway, still, rule = don't submit your first map, ppl hate it, bash into it etc. Of course, exceptions are made, but I think you can see this wouldn't qualify as such. And Innominate; NC is a bad environment for first maps. Just look at some of the lists, they'll be flamed completely. I'm surprised someone actually offered the Author some help. Good thing though. Innominate 07-06-2004 11:28 AM MDT Rating: 1.5   LMAO This is one funny ass map lol. Such weird coloration though. I disagree Ronin, ppl NEED to submit their first map so they can get contructive criticism from ppl like Ironblayde. You won't improve if you don't know what you did wrong. yournan 07-06-2004 11:57 AM MDT   Viper mate, contact me if you want help dudelovehavemercy@hotmail.com i use msn also. i cna teach you how to lighting, coronas, lightmaps, emitters, projectors, triggers, sounds, texturing, meshs etc things that bring a map to life. I think guys your comments were harsh, evne those this map doesn't look too cool. you rated a copied Rjajiar mine map higher than this, and that was a rip off moved health and re-textured rocks. Not flaming on you guys, just saying...... MsM Shadowlurker 07-06-2004 01:24 PM MDT Rating: 1.5   actaully, everyone rated that remake 0 :) First maps should be reserved for forums, IMO. More help can be given there. If a map is up on NC it is open for critisism. nightshadow 07-06-2004 01:32 PM MDT Rating: 0   why oh why do people post their first maps that are this cheesy? whyyyyyyyyy?? *shakes fist at sky* The Brazilian Novice 07-06-2004 08:08 PM MDT Rating: 0.5   Better add support for beta maps on NC. I think most ppl can't find a good 24/7 host for their beta / 1st maps and end up uploading them here. [Admin: I'm working on that... ] SuperApe 07-06-2004 08:50 PM MDT   Why do poorly scored maps get just as much attention as high scoring ones? Scott Hrivnak 07-07-2004 12:26 PM MDT Rating: 0   -=looks at his own asshole and points to it=- THIS is more interesting than this level. I understand its your first, but even my firs UT level wasnt this horrifying! Kobra 07-07-2004 12:54 PM MDT Rating: 0   I can't breathe!!! This is terrible!!! This is ugly!!! I hate it!!! ;[ thrift96 07-07-2004 01:46 PM MDT Rating: 0   This map would be good if it was released for the orginal wolfenstein game but he is about 15 years to late lin-design 07-07-2004 07:59 PM MDT   the thought that first comes to my head when i se your screenshot would be that you need to scale the textures, it is very hard on the eyes when you can acually see the tiling kingmango 07-08-2004 03:50 PM MDT   I'm pretty sure that all of us mappers were pretty proud of our first pieces of shite until we realized we could do so much more. I mean don't you remember how magical it was to run around in a UT map THAT YOU MADE YOURSELF!!!! lol Don't forget where you came from guys. And players only who don't map... well you know. zzeta 07-09-2004 12:05 PM MDT Rating: 0   damit .. stop taking 1 Glaurung 07-10-2004 05:42 PM MDT Rating: 0   In the review Ironblayde mentioned that the map had about as much of a chance of being enjoyed as Britney Spears had of winning a nobel. Actually the nobel might be slightly more realistic: http://britneyspears.ac/lasers.htm Incidentally, the physics (i have been informed) is solid SirTahngarth 07-18-2004 03:47 AM MDT Rating: 0   Ironblayde! you were last one i expected to post a funny picture and witty comments! This brings back memories of MisterProphet (O where are you, teh prophet?) Howitzer Lykaon 07-22-2004 10:29 AM MDT   Heck, my first map was way better than this! Levels at least need to be fun to play. Otherwise it's just a waste of time and space to submit it here. EDIT: OH MY GOD! I just realised this was for 2k4! That makes things much much worse. (For the hell of it, compare the Unreal2 Engine development shots to this. It's not just a waste of time and space, but of life as well, I feel sorry for the open minded ones who actually played it). And for the author: I find it hard to repect your efforts on this. I too am a noob mapper, but at least my maps are fun. Your level is incomplete and you should finish it before you submit it. And thanks to the 2k4 engine, you can set the light radius higher than 255 on a single light and this will light up your entire level. I suggest you try it. )Hidra( 07-27-2004 06:17 PM MDT Rating: 0   This dude only play Giant map .... i just wish he got is ass kicked out of the great communoti of NaliCity Chill Room =D Hahahahahahahahahahaha |VIPER|_N][G|-|T//@R3 07-28-2004 05:07 AM MDT   )Hidra( ,|,, ^_^ ,,|, hold your ass and run away before it burns...... eldarzach 10-02-2004 07:15 PM MDT Rating: 9   Gotta LOVE these mini me maps.
