What are you waiting for? This map is your reason to become a Double Domination fan. A 2k3 classic, back for 2k4.
This map is the same as the 2k3 map of the same name. It has been rebuilt under 2k4's UnrealEd to eliminate the problems that might occur when running a 2k3 map in 2k4. Rather than bore you with my own drawn-out account of how great this map is, I'll just give you the original description, courtesy of Qualthwar: _______________
A spectacular map for Domination lovers; they don’t come much better. The longer the game progressed, the more in awe I was with every aspect of the map. The eye candy is nice, the layout is super and the gameplay is second to none.
Everything is well-planned so as to provide the armchair warrior with a total gaming experience. The lighting and sounds are extremely well done, the attention to detail is there; little things that could have been ignored, weren’t. The layout not only gives you a change of scenery, but is used very well to distribute the items in a most effective way. The good stuff, for the most part, is just out of reach and requires that you take the time to own a powerful weapon. The kegger is at the center of action, so it’s always being vied for, but most of the health and better weapons are located away from the control points.
What was most remarkable was the gameplay. The control points are exposed just enough to make things interesting. While guarding a point, I was attacked by a bot and knocked into the water and drawn towards the treacherous waterfall. I managed to swim upstream, under the arch above the control point, and I was just about to get my feet dry to fight for the base again when time ran out and a point was given to the opposing team. I also found myself in a battle with a bot while we were both in the water, struggling against the current. Every location on the map sees action and every spot requires a unique style of fighting; be it long-ranged, up close, ducking behind old ruins, or sizing up your z-axis situation. Get the map. _______________
I couldn't say it any better. Weather you like DDOM or not, this map deserves to be in your collection, and on every DDOM server's rotation. |

| DjRaziel 07-07-2004 06:14 PM MDT | Rating: 9 | | I'm not a big fan of double domination (I liked domination better), but this map is worth the download. A little too big for 4 players, but in 6 or 8 it plays good. Nice visuals and solid gameplay. I think it even tops DOM-Atlantis. Good job!

| goldfenix 07-08-2005 06:57 PM MDT | Rating: 8.5 | | It's an awesome map! At the time I was playing it I was watching the Mummy Returns, and it really reminded me of ancient cities. It's huge, has rotational symetry; like a BR or CTF map, and it runs fast on my PC. The sky color and distant planet was a liitle fruity though, and those autodoors. But whoever said it tops DOM-Atlantis is right!
