awesome strategies could be used in this map. runs bad, floating items, a bsp hole, big download. Awesome detail, Awesome outside area, cool statues. If you have a fast computer and the time to d/l it, then you wont regret it. VERY GOOD MAP.

Do the break-down scores mean that much to you? Actually here I did a neko - the architecture should be 10 and the lighting a 9. Doesn't change the score or what I think of the map.

Excellent. I agree that this is a stunning example of what the Unreal Engine can do in the hands of a talented and caring mapper. I didn't even find the flag the first time. Playing on a Mac G4 450, 256. No fraggin' lag at all here, smooth as glass. This is a map built for tomorrow and the author should be commended ( then hired by a gaming company looking for 1337 work)!

This is a great map, despite the download size and framerate. I had a decent frame rate with my TNT2.. which is supposed to be a mid-level vid card... -The level itself is awesome tho, the architecture is very detailed and makes for a great 16-32 arena (albeit no server could support it...)

This map looks very cool and it's very detailed. A bit too big but with much players it is very cool with much tactics. UT excists for over a year now, so maps between 200-300 are really not strange! Come on mappers, more high-poly maps! CliffyB says he wants more high-poly maps too, check his ownage site..."elbow room"

Everyone | Rating: 9.5 | |
Yeah, min. system requirements would be a good idea. However, I those people who experience lag REALLy need to start forking out money for quality computers. I ran the map on my K7-650 with 128mb RAM, and a Voodoo 5 5500, and never once did I notice the framerate drop. But here's the thing: my computer is pretty damned outdated! (and I'm upgrading soon) So if yours doesn't run it well, it means you DEFINITELY need a new one. As for the map: I loved it. It's now among my top 10 maps EVER for UT. I give it a 9.5 (want to give it a ten, but can't, because it's not perfect due to little things like items through the floor, and junk like that)

10! I will admit that this bad boy made my P3 733 do a double take and start to sweat, but considering how incredibly awesome ever aspect of this map is, it has to be a 10. if playablity is hurt by the system hog that it is, it is made up for in the fact that the flow and ease of navigating the level are unmatched. Fricken Kudos!

This is the best map i have ever seen. OMG it must have taken so long to make but boy it is worth it. It should be a Tribes 2 map cause of its size, but it would be great online with 32 players cause then u could actually use stragy intead of random people attacking u could go in groups. This map deserved map of the Week cept it was probably too big. Anywho it should have been a 10 baby!

I give it an 8 because the map's just too big. While flying around checking out the map, the polys sometimes reached up to 1100! The framerate in Walk mode isn't bad though for such a big map, I was able to pull off an average of 30FPS with 7 bots, on a 128MB Ram 633MHZ 32MB SDRAM Radeon.

Great Big huge map, had to download it at school where I have T1 access, my 56k would take forever! The only time this map lagged for me was when I was looking up at the big castle thing in the center and could see the whole thing. That brought my FPS down to about 20. But other than that it runs smooth with 16 bots. In case you're wondering I have a P4 1.5Ghz with a GeForce 2 GTS DDR and 512 RDRAM. I know my computer sucks huh...... :)

This map runs too slow for you guys? It works OK on my P2400 with 256MB RAM and first generation TNT video card. Perhaps you need to update your video card drivers. (?!) Having the latest drivers makes a HUGE difference! Anyway, this is a VERY well made map IMHO. Good layout with many routes between flags to chose from. All in all a very nice looking map which is a refreshing change from the usual one route CTF maps. At 24MB(unzipped) it is a HUGE file but well worth it if you like large CTF maps with lots of detail. Excellent job El chicoverde. Thanks for the effort!

This map looks really nice...but as a player of Wheel of Time, this kind of archecture is nothing new to me. It is awesome to see nice stuff in unreal though...not that Unreal isn't kick-ass already. If you all like this kind of stuff, I suggest you come on over and check out some of our maps :-) There are some AWESOME user made maps, and every Legend made map will remind you why they are the people making Unreal II. However, as Polygon said, stealing textures from another game is a big no-no. Even if he only exported a few of them and then imported them into the actual map, rather than using the entire texture package. This is a big-time mistake, and can get many parties in trouble. One being Nali-City for distributing the map....

I can appreciate what you are all saying but a map that looks good and plays s**t might as well have not been made. Don't get me wrong he is obviously one of the best users of UnrealEd but he shouldnt be wasting an awfully long time making something that big! He should be making maps that people would want to play if it was on a server with a map vote.... Nice work but not my cuppa tea :)

A friggin beautiful map to look at! If only I could create architecture as good as this! lol :) Just a shame that it is a) way too big, making it unplayable (mostly) b) has a big effect on frame rates! I know some of u lot would consider my PC 'ancient', but if it can run the standard maps fine, then why should this not? My PC specs: AMD K6-III 400MHz, 128MB RAM, Voodoo3 2000. So, I recommend to D/L this map for the visuals, not for the game!

Absolutely incredible. Damn I wish I had a faster machine so I could run a bigger game on this map. Even if you are not a WoT fan, the map is interesting in the multiple lanes of getting there, getting back, and the multitude of weaponry placed throughout the level. Two reasons it isn't a ten in my book:
The lanes are crisscrossed so much that it will take awhile for anyone short of a genius with a good bit of intuition and a direction sense of godlike proportions to not get turned around at least ten times in their first game. While it's great to always find a new area, there comes a point where it's frustrating to not even know where your own flag is and having to follow a bot around to get to their flag.
There are a LOT of vials here, and 199 health at all times is a very likely thing. Personally, this is not a good thing for me, as it makes me too powerful. Maybe in an online game it would help a lot, but against the bots I play against... well... it sux.
Otherwise I'd say the map is very artistic, the bots are good at what they do (which is provide an annoyance unless they're Loque), and I've still yet to find every area and memorize it. Well done Chicoverde, wish there were more maps this intense.

WOW! I'm a sucker for outdoor maps, but they're usually too long, and I get killed on the way back with the flag. This map is long, but you're able to carry the flag back more safely. The terrain looks the most realistic out of all others I've seen. Just download it and see for your self.

Largest of any UT map I've ever played. Period. It's a very fun map for LAN parties, once everyone knows where the hell to go. You can speed up playing this giant by flying through it before starting the match, to precache the entire level. Then, lag won't affect you much while playing.
SUMMARY: Cool map! Well constructed and, in case you havn't noticed, extremely large.

I am impressed, if not awe-struck by the size and beauty of this map. the map generally slows down here and there, but that doesnt matter. The maps are getting larger, and it seems as though i am going to have to revise on the terrain ED for my Patriot mines project. Dont worry, Omega DMF will take note of this impressive build, and use what I learn to bring triumph to every one of my maps! Dont expect too much from Town, as the bots only seem to use one path..damn. Good map overall! :)

The largest CTF map I've ever seen is CTF-MetalMilitia: now THAT'S huge. [Isn't on Nali City tho] This one is a good one of course (and unlike other huge maps like MM doesn't have vast unused or superfluous areas). I have to take off a bit for the lag tho, and gameplay isn't the _best_ I've ever seen (a shade too easy to defend IMHO).

Minionofdestruction and Difool I still think FacingGiants is the biggest, but let's leave that alone. Great map, too big and I love big maps. Otherwise, I like it. Great mapping, if you could try to work on the items not being in the ground and a lil' smaller, and it could easily be a 10. Great job.

A classic example of graphics over gameplay. Most of you guys have rated this map on looks alone. I got bored being lost most of the time, wandering aimlessly trying to find the red base only to find myself back at the blue base. If it was written as a Single Player campaign for the OldSkool mod and had objectives, then it might be worth a 10. But it's just way to big for CTF.
