So why is it so special?

This map plays extremely well when played with humans - not bots. Although it does still play very well with bots, it shines with well matched players.

Also, it is a QuakeWorld classic, up there with Aerowalk and a few others.

It was a very early custom Q3A release that was professionally finished and well ported from the original Quake version that people (who came from QuakeWorld to Q3A) were hoping to see. These facts made this release a instant hit.

Blood Run is one of the few custom maps that can still be found played at LANs and online.

Try to think about this map in relation to only the custom maps released before this date.

Yep, that would be me. So get used to it.

Its good because it was well-built and didn't really have any noticeable problems, had bot support, and did show up on the menu.

All I am saying though is that there really isn't anything spectacular or unique about this map. Or anything I haven't seen already. So why is it so special?

This map is by far one of the greatest custom maps for Q3A. But not THE best. I've found maybe 5 or 6 better than this. Actually, I probably feel this way because I've played this map like 800 times and watched even more demos on it. So I've kind of grown tired of it. My favorite map right now would have to be lun3dm2. (on promode)

Guys, just stop fucking dissing each other and get on with the task at hand, eh? What's next, "my dog can frag faster than your dog, nyaaah nyaah"? Everyone likes different shit, so shut up and try tolerance for a bloody change. Anyhoo... the High Octane version of this is about as much fun as you can have with your clothes on! Ultra Carnage Incarnate. The texturing and atmosphere are spot on ( a sort of deliberately cloying opulence ) and the connectivity and bot-play are excellent too. And that's coming from a die-hard spacemap fan... load up on guns, kill your friends. A lot.

The RRROOOAAARRR autopsy report: Death by Natural Causes ( a BFG in the face will, naturally, kill you ). 10/10

Nice map, good work. Everything looks spot on, but, and theres a but, it isn't very consistant in the style, every corridor seems to be different and isn't very realistic - but then its quake! so it isn't too bad.

I actually did like it though, you've done nice work with all the detail, must've taken you ages!! I know i couldn't be bothered with it all. Overall i gave it a solid 8. great stuff!!

I just love that narrow corrador with the mega :D. ZTN is the master of fluidity/conectivity. He gets a little armor crazy at times, but the sheer design of his maps are amazing. They are fun, fluid, and strat filled at the same time. However, I do not see this map as being a competition 1v1 q3 map because of its large size. It owns for 2v2, 3v3, and RocketArena though. ZTN if you are going to make another conversion of anykind please make it ztn2dm2. That map was insane. I look foward to seeing his next "new" 1v1 map, and I hope he takes his armor-supresent pills before he adds items to it ;]. The 1v1 community is in dire need of an accepted and quality 1v1 map. I give this a 10 for 2v2 play.

As always, ztn seems to have the gameplay down pretty well.

I do, however, wish he'd have picked a different texture set as many have said here before. I'm not much on these when id uses them, and ztn seems to have gone overboard a bit with some of the fancy/busy wall textures.

As for gameplay, it is a fun map. I wish he'd included a quad free version instead of the HO version with BFGs, because this can be fun for 1v1.

BTW, I like the RA jump quite a bit. You can either jump straight to it from up top (not strafe jump needed, btw) or RJ up from the GL.

I like ztn3dm2 a bit better, but this is a very quality map.

[hmmm, I posted, the page reloaded, and my post was gone. Sorry if the original actually shows up later in a double post]

Well don't have time to read the other comments right now, so I may just be repeating things, but here goes. Mainly it was just a very well made and balanced map....feels like something Id should put in the coming Expansion Pack. I personally find it hard to comment on maps that I think are just about perfect, if one thing was odd it was the SG's placement up high on a platform, my guess is ztn likes the SG a lot, while I don't. Just a difference of opinion. Great map, man!

Happy Fraggin! Octovus (9.5 rounded down to 10)

To strafe jump simply hold forward and strafe at the same time while you jump. If you do the same again as soon as you land then you will start to go even faster. Strafe jumping is a great way to get to a a cut off point quickly the only problem is all the jumping noises lets people know where you are and what you are doing. It's an awesome bug. it reminds me of the turbo button you could hold down in Super Mario Brothers.

This map is alot of fun against bots. I'm trying to get the guy who runs the RA pickups server I always play at to put it in the rotation. I wasn't crazy about the texture theme but I don't really care about things like texture theme or if they line up perfectly or if a floor looks like it would support my character's weight. You can pobably get splash damage through that little overhang that holds the grenade launcher that Bario was rambling about which should help against spammers so, from a gameplay standpoint the fact that it is thin is a good thing, IMHO. The shards make great sound cue and the ones in the stairs between the rocket launcher and the grenade launcer actualy let you know which way a good player is going. (on the way in they are avoided by using the side ledges.) The teleporter under the rocket launcer takes you to a perfecrt place. The quad and the red armor are fun to get. I gave this map a ten (if textures really matter to you (I'd give it a 9, maybe even an 8) and like it more than the ones that ID put out, which are obviously dumbed down for the sake of the bots. Thanks ZTN. Oh yeah, sometimes stairs are more fun than jump pads and I think they might have been in this map.

Another superb piece of work from ztn imo. I don't think the texture set is getting old because ztn has used them flawlessly in this map and in Beatbox. He has used many different textures which go together very nicely and keep the map looking interesting.

Playability wise I also thought it was fantastic. I have had some great games on it although I haven't checked out the High Octane version yet, sounds like a good laugh :-)

Great work ztn, keep it up.

Ok,I feel I have a couple things to say.

This map is anyway above the average,but I disagree about a couple statements.

First: the lighting is not-at-all superb...it's just full-bright.

You have a good lighting when at your first glance you will immediately understand the shape of your surrounding...if you're standing more than 1/2 second to find out how far is that wall and if the corridor is on your same level,and you don't feel the depth of the room,than you don't have a good lighting...this turns particularly annoying when the rooms' structure is small and complex.This is not my own opinion,is a general well known consideration about computer graphic,the fact that you don't notice this and developers (pro and am)don't pay much attention to this,doesn't mean that it's not important.At this stage of real time computer graphics,lighting (lightmap or Goraud shading) is used to darken (so to hide) things,if you want to have everything perfectly bright,you just don't use them,or light the map with Qrad -ambient 1000 (just invented this one).Probably what I call good lighting,is what is generally indicated as "atmospheric".

Also,with this fullbright effect the textures tiling become very evident even in relatively small ambients.

In q3dm18 and q3dm8 you have a not too bad use of lighting (IMO).

Beside,there are some structure anomalies that usually go unnoticed but IMO are worth mentioning...the small "balcony" with the GL,is definitely something I wouldn't walk on in real life...it's way to thin,and looks like it never gonna carry the weight...beside,it looks esthetically unproportioned.

I know,this is something that will sound quite strange to you,and I'm sure that half of you is already yelling "come on,it'is just a game !!!"...

In my maps I often did some "pavements" that are just floating,but there (I hope) you don't get the feeling that it's falling down,cause they look strong enough to carry the weight (the lava corridor in my map in the beta section is done like this)

Now it's sounding more and more weird,but think about this fact a little more and maybe next time you'll play,you'll find several examples of unproportioned stuff that looks like it's falling down every minute...

The textureing itself is a bit differente from the id's Q3 standard,(that personally I prefer)which is more simple,plain and always tryes to give you a path to follow...here the impression is very rich,and everything capturing your attention strongly...this is most matter of tastes,I guess,but the result in Blood Run is not bad anyway.

Ok,I'm making it too long now...

Beside,the architecture and the gameplay is helluva fast,this good,and this makes it a good map...In the end,the most important things is the gameplay...

Anyway,I like this map and I would rate it 7/8,same mark I'd give to "Nothing At All" (laerdm1) which would get more if it had a decent framerate.

I just hope I didn't sound too boring.

This is what I posted on the Quake3World forum., on a thread ztn started:

"Verdict: I LOVE it!!! The gameplay is amazing, especially considering the two versions you included: suits the mood you're in . The only real gripe I have with them is the use of the base textures... although they fit well, I was kind of hoping to find some more custom ones, and a more original theme, like the ones you (ztn) pulled off in dmmq3dm6 and ztndm2."

But GAMEPLAY [b]rules[/b] everything, and I am giving this one a 9!

Jim,

I'm also noticing that more and more maps are requiring rocket jumps to reach certain items- in this case the red armor.

You can get to the ra without a rj. Strafe jump off the top platform.

Let me make a minor correction to my earlier comments: The gameplay IS smooth and the FPS is excellent. I guess what I'm looking for is the same kind of gameplay with DIFFERENT textures. This kind of "look" is getting old. It's a deserving map, and props to ZTN. I'm SURE he's capable of doing something with a different look next time...if theres enough demand for it.

i didn't like the placement of the railgun. my friend didn't like the placement of the red armor. my mom didn't like the placement of the mega health. my brother didn't like the quad placement. my dog didn't like the texturing. i think we all will mail ztn and let him fix those issues.

I was kinda ticked that ZTN took out the Lightning but left in the Railgun for the high octane version. The RG slows down stuff, but the Lightning forces close and personal combat. It would have also made BR-HO very much more like the original.

Actually [iF]Gonad, it was originally made for Quake, not Quake2. It was definately one of the best Q1 dm maps.

This is very original! ZTN started this trend and lots of people have copied his style. His original version of this map was for Q2 made yrs ago.

Very playable map, just like his other q3 map this one is all playability and great fun.

btw rj to the red armour? why not just jump? but i disagree with u about it not being enough to rj for, ra is better then megahealth.

Good map- good layout, and the styling is very well done. The style is very similar to ztn's other map (can't recall the name) but the layout and architecture are different.

The location of the quad was well done- with that precarious jump you have to make to get to it- may have been better to put a lava pit below tho so you'd pay for it if you missed the jump- but nonetheless- if you see someone "getting in position" so to say, you know he's heading up there, and could probably disrupt his plans if you send him a rocket early enough.

I'm also noticing that more and more maps are requiring rocket jumps to reach certain items- in this case the red armor. Unfortunately I don't think the red armor is worth a RJ- the megahealth would have been tho, or even the quad.

Good map- a keeper

I'm going against the crowd here. VERY average map. No obvious mistakes so thats good but the map and the game play are tired. Not much originality in this one at all. There are a million other maps like this one on the net. Then again, I'm looking for originality.

Its nice to see this map on the new engine. Blood Run was always one of my favorite LAN maps for Quake. Looks great in the Q3 gothic flavor.

Nice work ztn, the item placement is nearly flawless.

The "high-octane" version is good for a laugh, its an all out battle for the BFG with 4 or 5 bots. What a mess. I favor the original but the "high-octane" version is certainly good for short 2 minute bursts of rage.

grabbed it lastnight and played the living $@#% out of it. The original was a fave of mine for Quake 1 and this one is a new thrill. Not too keen on the "high octane" version. The BFG is just too much for this map.
