The level preview screen looks a lot like the preview shot of Terra. So I guessed it was some kind of Terra and Face looking map.
I fired up the map and I noticed a really solid architecture. Not over- or underscaled, but it fitted perfectly into one solid map. The floorplan looks a bit like Terra and other Face looking maps. 2 bases with a sort of outdoor area with hights that give you enough fall damage to break a leg. Inside the base everything is nice and warm. During a heavy battle with some bots, I though it was a fast place. Take the flag and get the hell out of there. At the end it's all the same. It's an avarage to above avarage map, but you've all seen it before. To bad, but I think the author will provide us with some nice and stunning maps in the future (I hope).
Lightning seems OK. Again, it's the basic stuff, no dark corners, no special fantasy things by the author. Torches to fit the theme...
The bots did a rather good job here and I think, if this map gets the change, it won't do that bad on a public server. (Preferable normal weapons maybe ?) Weapons and item placement is OK. Could be better in some cases.
This map is certainly worth a download and once in while worth a play on a server if you like Face or Terra. |

It is a pretty decent map, but it's still a FACE-like map. You get more base for it, and level is carved in mountains instead of being space floating. And it's a little bigger (read streched) from base to base.
It has a gameplay way too limited, like any other FACE-like map, but this can be worse. Since the base distance is bigger, snipers go for a walk in the park. Attackers and FLAG carriers are either picked up by sniper shots, or fall to the lava trying to dodge all sorts of incoming projectiles (as paths don't have cover).
I don't like FACE, FACE][, and FACE-clones. As such, this is a map that is well built but suffers from any FACE-like flow and playability.
In the end, you'll delete it.

| Enigma 02-23-2004 01:23 PM MST | Rating: 7 | | I was never really a fan of the Face maps because of the OVER usage of sniping. This map does a better job than Face because it's a little easier to pick off the snipers than it was at Face. More paths are offered too which adds some more fun to the level.
| ZBREAKER 02-24-2004 02:32 PM MST | Rating: 6 | | Without a doubt inspired by Face, yet good simple CTF fun. and as someone pointed out, sniping the snipers makes it less bothersome that its inspiration. Nice build . I'd rate it 6.5 actually.
