This map is very 1337, one of DavidM's genuinely good maps along with Pahgio. 7 for Architecture?? Pah, have you see that outside bit by Rifle?? Fucking superb... I think you're missing the point Twrecks, this is not supposed to be a realistic prison that Real Maps would review and would work with Inf., it's supposed to be a very playable UT map with prison elements to give it a strong theme and good details.

your score's spot on Twrecks, this map is nice to look at in places but can't decide whether it is a gimmick/realistic map or a hardcore map. As a result it plays like a small room-corridor map with some cool details but no cool gameplay.

Traps are great, and it looks nice, but the gameplays nothing we havent seen before. Good gimmick map but not really a keeper

Twrecks? What are you? The president of all the worlds Retards? :D Its not the score that im pissed at, its the review! "Mine"...? "Mine"?!?!? There's no farking mine textures in this map! It uses Akuma's l33t oilrig textures... not Mine! Oh, and you cant review with such a system... No map is fun with framerates below 15, and i bet no map runs more than 15 fps on your rig... I mean, i can barely get above 20 fps on my old K6-2 400mhz/Voodoo2 system :P

ONLY 7.5??? Hey the map looks great, plays great and is one of David`s best DM maps, along with Pahgio and Pah! PS: realism SUCKS!!! If you can biuld the map better than David, the 7.5 is ok.(but I think you can`t because it`s PERFECT) Keep on mapping David, waiting for your next map!

This is one fine map. Play flow is hard and fast and I like playing this map with 5 or 6 bots jacked up to adept and all carrying tac op weapons. Great job!

it looks nice and all - and the skybox is great. But the layout is flat and the traps are kind of boring. the textures are great tho, but that's Akumas doing, not Davids.

Should I try to run this on my P200 MMX, 64Meg, 8Meg ATI and see how it goes? I bet it's even MORE fun to play then. Nahhh, my PII machine is LOW end, my old pc is NO end. The old machine did run UNREAL 1 ok though.

Compare this to, say, DM-Helleth and tell me why it shouldn't have at least 9. Nice, if not perfect flow, good visuals, good theme. And it runs 25+ fps on my K6-2 300 with Voodoo II. Definitely one of the best maps out there.

This map is up to the usual standard for DavidM. It flows, great textures, lighting and tough bots. What is your problem, Kain, with DavidM? You bitch about every one of his maps as though they are shit, which they are not. As a Nali City reviewer, you are shooting your credibility to bits, dude. Get some ideas on how to conduct a balanced review by going and reading CliffyB's Ownage site. Just so happens that three of DavidM's maps are there, including two you reviewed. I tend to think that CliffyB knows a little bit more about mapping than you, pal. STFU and review. Nali City and QAPete deserve better from you.

Not sold on the layout, but when CliffyB gives it Ownage, and Akuma gives an 8 for user feedback, its gotta be good since they really know about mapping. Richrig texture set owns!

I don't see why this map got such a low score (especially compared to some of the garbage that has gotten much higher scores on this site) ... the layout wasn't too bad (i think pahgio is more fun tho) and the visuals are pretty kick ass.

An awesome map!

Well this sounds like a cool map, but since the latest drivers were installed on my computer, something has screwed up my UT. Something to do with sound or another. So my score is N/A at this time and not a 0....but, like in those famous words: I'll be back...and give a score.

I find the DavidM's gimmicky approach to this level would work great in a UT single player map. (perhaps something for the future?) You get that real immersive sense of actually being somewhere, kind of like in halflife.

I found DM-Alcatraz quite a dissapointment, it's nowhere near DavidM's standard at all. If you take the DavidM's name away from it, the map would be just the same as every other 7 scored map made by joe schmoe. Try again DavidM.....

DavidM makes great maps. Unfortunately this isn't one of his best. I suggest anyone who thinks this is his best work should try some of his other maps, such as DM-Roon with lots of z-axis and great flow. Alcatraz pales in comparison. This doesn't deserve a 10 by any standards.

I like the Alcatraz theme and especialy the electric chair trap. Its a good flowing DM map, but I think you could tell the sky box was a cube which slightly spoiled it. Apart from that its a fine map!

ICH collision hull in the sky like an additional floor, you can walk the entire front of the level this way. Better testplay your maps next time. Apart from that a boring texture theme map. The "1337" LCD is not even animated. WHo do you think likes stuff like that? Geometry is good tho, but I know you can do way better stuff (thinking of what you did in Operation Na Pali)
