Dm_Sadists_Pit_RC1 Subject description: Map Release |
|
Hi, this map is now released as rc1 version.
The build has taken influence from the Alien films, the abyss, total recall and the game Doom 3. It is based on the map dm_areolite which is a deathmatch classic game still available on deathmatch classic servers, although built from scratch and extensively modified beyond similarity except in map layout. The map is centred around a 'pit', with 3 interlocking floors, and features teleports, stairwell lighting, manual closing doors, ventilation ducts, working elevator (american english) and switchable lights. The pit features an expanse of water that forms an abyss.
The map also includes increased lightmaps, which means that shadows appear more striking and less diffused. New textures courtesy of catalyst source studios - http://www.fpsbanana.com/textures/98 And a custom made skybox with martian sky and mountains.
The switchable lights are a main feature of the map, and affect the soundscape, making the map very quiet while also darker, which brings in a new form of gameplay for dm.
Now playing on TSF Server #6 - 85.234.149.108:27046

Yep I like simply for the fact that the flashlight acutally has a use there, and its really cool when you see someone for a split second in the flashlight and nail them with a Headshot.
I'll be there for a few games.

Good effort on the lighting there sadist. Very different from the usual contrast achived in source games. Looks a little like the FEAR engine at work.
I will be there i think

I thoroughly enjoyed playing that map!
In the beginning, with less players, it got really interesting as soon as the lights went out - very nice atmosphere. I know some people don't like playing in darkness like that, but I think it was lots of fun. Especially what Cabbage mentioned - giving headshots in that kind of darkness really IS cool
Very well done!

When I played this map a while ago I didn't get it and was not impressed.
I played on it for 80 mins tonight and... it's f'n brilliant. Atmosphere, fps, sound, darkness, weapon placement, hiding holes, etc etc. Brill. I want a walkthrough as I bet you put a few tricks in there. I had a lot of fun tossing objects through the teleporter - Portal eat you heart out.
N1 indeed

I was not sure about this map looking at the screen shots and seeing how dark it looked...but after playing the map all my fears about players camping in dark corners and not being able to see were gone.
This is a bloody great map and plays like a dream well done Sadist
10/10

Hi,
Firstly thanks to all who turned up to play and thank you for your comments. My apologies to those I did not see, an unforseen event meant I had to leave at 10pm one hour after the testing started.
I have made some interesting observations regarding the gameplay, over the 4 rounds, so I see what direction the map can be taken now for the rc1 release. I have also noted comments during play and following the test.
Thanks again for coming, map release shouldnt be too long now.
