A crimson sky tops a sinister little Space map. The organic terrain and flowing formations make a great change of scenery. Texturing is good on the features but gets a little repetitive on the more open ground. Lighting is flooded with crimson, it could be a little more neutral. Game play can be a lot of fun for a few rounds. The weapons are Shotgun, Rocket and Rail, with Rail Gun exchanges high on the list. Bouncing from the top altar section down to the Rail Gun can be a lot of fun. The few little secrets are a nice touch. Bots play OK, but they are a little predictable.

Good for a change of scenery. (There is also a large version which contains a music track. Grab it from the authors website)

It seems that the skybox hurts my eyes a lot so that needs improving. Other than that it's really well created. 8/10.

Fun for a little while and looks v nice but I found once you have the RG there is no reason to go to the other end of the map. Chugs a bit on my cpu as well so no large games for me, might work better with more than two ppl. Download it for the cool teleport :).

Good work. We need more maps like these. I´m getting very tired of the standard tech/goth looks and their derivetaries (how do you spell that).

"MEANIE"? Daaaammn. That stings, bud. I'm a nice guy, really.

I hang around this board a lot. I'd feel bad if I never saw your opinion again, but I can't promise I won't argue with your phrasing.

"never post any comments" Wow.

/me basks in the glow of my power, and attempts to work my swollen cranium through the doorways for the rest of the day . . .

Dear me....but Nicholas, your comment did sound like a bit of an insult to the map/mapper. If you don't like it much anymore that's fine...I don't have time to download many maps, and I should actually be studying for my exams right now but what the hell :-p

pjw was just pointing out that there have been significant changes...you can't say that those things weren't changed "TO ME", because they were....sure, maybe that didn't make it any fresher or more exciting for you, but say that then, don't say the betas didn't change anything.

*wonders why the only posts he makes on Lvl these days are to break up fights...*

Hey PJW, notice the phrase "it has kinda lost it's impact--to me anyways"? There you go. When the first beta appeared it was WOW from many on the board. But after the 3 or 4 beta's it has lost some of that WOW factor-- TO ME. No need for the sarcasm-- don't be a meanie. From now on I'll never post any comments about any maps as there is always someone who feels the need to correct MY OPINION. MEANIES!

Nicholas said: "after the several beta's and no significant changes. . ."

Okay, I'm confused. Oh, you mean except for the addition of the Regen and megahealth (which I suppose are pretty minor), and the addition of a teleporter (which I suppose doesn't totally affect gameplay), the redesign of the terrain, and the total rearrangement of all the weapons and the YA a couple of times. Other then that. Got it. [/sarcasm] :-)

Nice job on the final 79DR, I am also looking forward to your next one.

Nice final, but after the several beta's and no significant changes it has kinda lost it's impact-- to me anyway. Thanks 79DieselRabbit for the option of some tunes. With your creativity and proggressing mapping skills I'll be looking forwrd to your next project. Hopefully you'll 'just surprise' us with another fragground.

I remember when this map was in beta....very original concepts happening here.

A visual feast while kicking ass with the ShotGun!!!
