The most popular space map designer is at it again, producing yet another arena for his fans to chew on. The texturing is another masterpiece in another symmetrical arena. The map is designed with an emphasis on the vertical element but lacks the typical Railgun element. The connectivity is okay but the Red Armour can only be reached in one way. With the rarely spawning Railgun, the Rocket Launcher and Plasmagun plays a larger offensive role, but the machinegun still has the potential to be quite lethal. The bots play reasonably well.

This level is a must for space fans and is an interesting arena for regular players, but the power of the machinegun will bother some gamers once you put in talented humans.

Yeah RS, I was actually thinking the same thing as Octovus when I read your comment. If you don't want people asking questions like that you should try not to contradict yourself in your comments: "you didn't expect much", odd considering you like his other maps eh? Just as an aside I'd take his opinion over yours anyday. Sorry for taking up the message board with this shite everybody. Later!

Wow RS - got a bee in your butt? I've worked with Octovus in the past and he's one of the most fair-minded people I know. Chances are if he asked you a question, it wasn't meant to be rude.

I'm afraid I'm going to have to agree with Octovus on this one and give it a 7 because it's Nanuk. I saw some cracks in brush seams, z-fighting on the bouncepads, and a few other things that didn't look quite right. Dare I say that it looked a little sloppy? (/me recoils in horror at accusing Nanuk of that)

Personally, I'd like to see more rail on this map, as it's so large and has so many escape routes that the other weapons become much less effective. That's just me, though, and doesn't count in my scoring.

Sweet map, though.

Let me try to explain this to you dear Octopussy since you took the time out of your miserable life to comment. I am not a space map fan. However, I do like the style Nunuk has in his SPACE MAPS so I gave it a try. Go screw. End of topic. Still like the map even if your "expert" opinion is only a 7.

:^) RS

Er, most of his maps are space maps, aren't they? Or at least that's what he's known for (though I guess there's Platypus and Batcula now!)

Not being a big space map fan I didn't expect much, but I do enjoy the author's levels so I gave it a try. Very nice indeed and I did enjoy the weapon balance. I have not played with humans on this level yet, but would enjoy doing so I'm sure. I read the comments below and I don't believe there is enough ammo for the RG to rule for long or if there are 3-4 players in the level. Great job, this one makes the home LAN.

The idea is to get the Railgun when you are not vulnerable. So long as you have plenty of health and armor (or have your opponent off at a safe distance), the other player can at best just tag you with a spam rocket before the surprise element wears off. There should be a risk in getting important weapons of a map...

You mean when you come out of the teleporter?

PI, I mean that if I want to get the RG, you can rape me after spawning (with any weap you want)

papri-K, the Railgun respawns once every two minutes and only has 10 slugs, so you can't rape with the Rail forever (besides, the Railgun is not always the best weapons to rape with, anyway).

yeah great map. I have one compliant regarding the spawn after getting the RG, kinda easy to spawn-rape, right?

Hey Nunuk, I love the custom textures and the weird geometry. It's the geometry alone that keeps me coming back to your site. Kinda small compared to your other maps, but indredible work! 2 Thumbs up!

Fun map, like the slow railgun spwaning. Just being pedantic (please excuse me) there is also the rocket jump to RA which is kinda fun. It's nice to have a space map which isn't totally dominated by RG anyway :). I'm giving it an 8 :p.

It's a nunuk map...but, not up to his usual caliber. Not that it was intended that way; after all, he only spent a very small amount of time on it. Which just goes to show you how talented he is, because the map's still perfectly ok. 7/10 just because it's from Nunuk, but from your average person this'd merit an 8 or 9 easily...
