"An organic/metal fused map with multi-tiered areas for sniping and such", says the author. "Wow, what a map!!!!", I say. This is quite possibly one of the best custom DM maps I have played for Quake3 yet. Its completely different from every other map so far. It has secret rooms (first time I've seen those in a Q3A DM map), multiple areas and doubles up as a CTF map!
The gothic textures have been used here and used wisely. Weapons placement is bizarre but interesting. All the weapons are here except the BFG. You have to find the Lightning gun as it is one of the secrets - the other secrets being Quad, Invisibility and Megahealth. Some items on the map require you to rocketjump if you want them, so Quake newbies have a challenge before them! The main area of the map, where the actual "organicfusion" takes place, is one hell of a battlezone, placing the players on multiple levels - but you'll have to go elsewhere to get the Railgun and come back here if you want to do any sniping. It also has an outside area which I always like to see - staying inside is boring. In all this is a pretty big map, so you can play quite a lot of players on it. But another oddity of this map is that you can comfortably play 1on1 on it. Wierd huh?
The author warns that the bots will stand around a lot, but I can tell you that so will you as you marvel at this amazing piece of work. Highly recommended.
