If it weren't for the hawk in the sky, plants, and lack of airlocks, I'd say this would be an ideal Mars-themed map.

This is a wonderful map that I am pleased to see is still in the Top 10. In fact, it is the most downloaded map of the bunch... and for good reason! When I need a little frag-fest after a hard day's work, this is usually the map I reach for first. And I have had this map for nearly 2 years!

Get it. Now.

Hey just one little comment :)

Been a while since i've been here, and my former nick was

RAVE. In may at the end of a message i said :

originality is important

perfect example: half life

Then locutus_mp asked me the 15th june of this year if i ever heard of doom? :)-B

Nah except that i've been playing doom1 and 2, over 2000 add-on levels, think it's a superfast fun shooter etc :)

Thing is, Doom is real fun, but storyline is kinda thin :)

shoot monsters, save earth...

Half life was much more than that: interact with others (barneys, scientists etc..)

get your ass out of the underground laboratory, where they've been experimenting with things they shouldn't have and some aliens invade ... :)

Doom isn't very original when it comes to storyline sorry :I

quake is the same thing: shoot baddies, save earth.

WOlfenstein, in a way, also.

Quake2 is a bit different. NOw you're all of the time on their hometurf. :)

Doom rocks and still beats the hell out of recent shooters when it comes to gameplay and fun. But aside from the monster-cast, it wasn't that original.

BUt a classic.

I really hope that those people at ID put some huge effort in that new doom game.

If they make one stupid mistake, it's gonna fail.

I guess in a way most shooters are still bound to a same type off storyline:

shoot baddies, get out, save your ass and erhm.. the planet

Quake arena however is different

heh shoot the others, walk away with a big grin on your face...

Very nice, and very big map... I think it begins to be funny with at least 7 players, other while, u just spend two days looking for ech other

The storm is really great, not too important, as in q3tourney5, but enough for an ambiance.... The bird in the sky is just cooool... I agree that there should be more than one rocket launcher, since you need it to get the Quad....

Other wise very cool map... I ggave a 7

Good Job lunaran

Rave:

You call Half-Life original? Have you ever heard of Doom? Let's see... laboratory which is performing dangerous secret experiments suddenly gets invaded by alien forces because of those same experiments. You (alone) must beat them back, eventually crossing over to their realm to do so. No, that doesn't sound familiar at all...

gr8 map - i started it up, looked round and was amazed. brilliant & original idea and finished well.

played a bot and found it isn't about visuals. it might be just me but the gameplay was crap - bad item placement in my view.

sorry about this but it couldv'e been so much more. a disapointinting 5 ;(

cg_drawfps 1

cg_crosshairsize 15

r_picmip 9

Kaled, about infinite awaiting gamestate perhaps you have in your config:

seta g_filterBan "0"

Then try :

seta g_filterBan "1"

This should correct your problem but well I can't understand how you could have the wrong value, perhaps a manipulation error. At least check that.

Just agree with you Neptune and many other, fantastic mood. It's few in comparison to gameplay but for me it seems more and more obvious that look and mood take a major part in the gameplay and replay value of a map. The gameplay is also excellent but not so awesome, probably doesn't worth a 10, more a 9 but the look&mood certainly worth a 11 so I gave it too a 10.

This map is one of the best I've seen to date. Great attention to detail! Every aspect of it ruled, in my opinion. The bird was a great touch! <Especially with the sound of it screeching! > The fog was the topper, though. Just the right thickness so you could taste it! I give this map a 10 and definitely am going to replay it soon!

A 10! Excellent atmosphere and lots of connecting passageways to ensure you MUST check your 6:00 every half second or risk a nasty slug or electric prod up the butt. Tons of opportunities to happen upon a battle involving heavy weapons and pick off the damaged combatants with your machine gun ;-) (I like playing clean-up when I've freshly spawned)

I know this isn't supposed to be a Dune map, but the feel is there and a good project on similar lines might be a Dune CTF map with seitch caverns for one team and an Imperial lighter or outpost for the other with rolling sand dunes and craggy rocks between. Just an idea free for the taking.

Witz is right about teamplay potential. With friendly damage on this would make for a tense and gripping team game.

As for those who complain about bot matches, try Hardcore or Nightmare - the bots really kick ass and they will go for the power-ups. (Sarge splattered me good with the quad shotty once)

Hope to see some more from Lunaran!

Hey Kaled..

Have you tried rebooting... works for me. Failing that check that sv_pure = 0, and make sure you aren't running any other RAM eating things (eg Quake 2 in background). Although don't bother with Kahoos as it aint worth playing.

I've been playing this map for some time before it was released on this site.

When newbies to quake 3 get through all the regular maps, it's this one I recommend first.

It has outstanding atmosphere, great gameplay , very cool colors. I can't find a single flaw in it worth mentioning. In fact , I think it's better than some of the original quake 3 maps.

Still playable after several months, can't wait to try it out on multiplayer : )

10/10 !!! enough said - DOWNLOAD IT NOW .

I give a 10 to the appearance,

great atmosphere and for how

unique it is compared to many levels I've seen. Very good!

The ten is diminished because of the gameplay I can't dig (yet?). With 4 bots in it I often find myself in corridors

endlessly doing left right left right corners for example wihtout a meeting. So I gave a totaal of 9 because its looking very nice and its a joy to be in your creation. (The eagle...good idea!)

This map may be the greatest indie map i've ever played. It's got some of th best gameflow I've ever expierienced and some great kickass action. First of all, there isn't just one G-Spot. Brawls sprawl up all over the place. Second, you can own with any weapon. I remember Sarge frisking my ass away with the Super Shotgun as I pumped grenades into Klesk's Railgun. You don't see that many indie maps where you can own with any weapon, and this quality is very crucial to a l33t map. Third, the eyecandy is excellent. There's this bird that flys in circles around a sand dune with a half-buried skull in it. Outside, it's really misty and inside it looks like an abandoned Q3A Fortess, with Q3 logos resting on torn up flags. Too kewl. Fourth, and most important, it is VERY original. This get's a wicked 10 from me. Why the hell are you still reading? Download it now!

Great map, loved the first release as well. Atmosphere out the yang, good layout & weapon placement, blah blah blah. Just a bit of a rant, but I don't think, imo, that ppl should use botplay as a judge on a maps score - for the simple fact that the bots in q3 are horrible. (10)

haven't played the map yet, but am aghast at the gaming communities lack of knowledge of sci-fi literature. I haven't read all of the 40-odd posts, but I saw one which called coriolis storm a "weird name! DUNE, PEOPLE. You know, Frank Herbert, one of the greatest sci-fi writers of ALL TIME! JEsus, a cotiolis sotrm was a sans-storm on the desert world know as either dune or arrakis. Since I loved the books I can't wait to see a dune-inspired level. My review post will be up as soon as my food-poisoning lets me be.

lun, the music works fine and fits the map, I was just pointing that out.

I'd also like to know what is childish about the texturing - seems very nicely done to me. Maybe you d/led another map and commented in the wrong thread, eh, Steinecke.

I also find that the map flows just as well as the id maps. Well, no, I lie, it flows a lot better than 90% of the id maps.

this map was pretty good, the gameplay was alright but the bots didnt go for the quad/haste. i got a bit laggy around the rl because thats where the bots usually clumped around, the texturing and architechture (is that how u spell it?) was good, but thats the way alot of maps have been lately, all the same style in every single room, it gets boring, and imo maps with varied styles of rooms are more fun to play in. overall good map, but kinda boring.

The music goes in baseq3/music, like the text file says. It isn't stereo because the original music had little or no stereo effect, so why double file size for nothing?

Steinecke: What, pray tell, is childish about the texturing? I ask not to start an argument, I'm just curious.

(The bots use powerups a lot more on higher difficulty settings.)

I could have sworn there was more bots! not even the consil was beeping ..then all of a sudden bammmmmmm!!! Total choas in one room! The bots now go everywhere.

Very nice but it doesn't have the flow that id's maps have, so I can't give it more than a 8 (8.5). Damn nice work with the atmosphere. I like the desert theme very, very, very much.

Cool map...I'd say more but its been said. =) Oh yeah, I really liked the lg "explosion" area...looks like something big happened there. Anyone who's played sp hl: reminds me off "Questionable Ethics" when you find your first high tech weapon. (The one that shoots through walls, sorry I don't remember the name =P).

L8rs! Octovus

AT LAST! I can finally put my well deserved 10 in here !!! Maps like this are what I dream about after a big night on Quake servers. It seems as though the place is just crawling with corridors and the sandstorm effect is just to die for. I still v1 of this map so I guess I must upgrade NOW !!! Good job Lunaran, and please make more grand maps such as this !!!

OUTSTANDING!! Much better than ID:s origanal maps, this one should be included in the original q3maps

Lunarian: make more maps with same theme & textures!

Doh - put a 1 before that 5 and you're closer to the real figure.

Great map. It might have been designed for FFA but it's gonna get a damn good run out in team dm. I help run a 54 clan league in the UK and we've got it scheduled for week 6 of the season. Should be cool :)

I forgot to enter my name. This map is not ok. The bots don't take advantage of powerups, they bunching on the same spot.

Texturing ist childish and cheap.

hey, lun, you know I like the map. I also d/led the music yesterday which fits the map quite nicely but when you have high quality sound turned on you get a little error message saying "warning: lun3dm1.wav is not 22khz stereo" or something. Nevermind, I dunno why Q3 has to show such a pointless little error message anyway, it should log errors in a file which can be turned on or off.

That reminds me, does anyone know how to turn off game logging? it's fucking annoying to see this useless log file sitting in my q3 dir which is often in the 1mb region. I know it doesn't matter really but I get annoyed by these things :)

This map deserves all the praise it can get! It's highly packed in atmosphere and the gameplay is great: tucking away the RL is a great idea! I give this one a 9.5 (rounded up to 10)!

Shambler, I wasnt really referring to everyone at the qboard - there were alot of cool people there - and i have nothing against ANYONE there, in fact i have a great respect for most of the names i saw there. And I never hung around there enough to know lunaran. I just read the thread about the qboard shutting down and saw quite a few people saying that there are absolutely no good q3a maps coming out - and i thought this map was proof otherwise.

No offense dude

Well, I think it's about time a level with some unique-ness comes about, I think I, and most other people, are quite used to the classic "Gothic-Castle" arena, and It's a very nice change, looks great! Can't wait to play the Authors next release.

Oh yeah, I'm not saying there aren't any other unique levels around, 'cause there's bound to be the odd person now who will start mouthin me off. Another personal favorite of mine is Senndm2, and other maps by him. But, on a side-note, that's quite the weird name, Coriolis Storm, but kinda kewl =)

And finally, I agree with Jim, I'd easily give this map an 11 if possible, that'd be kewl.

Great Job Lunaran!

If it were possible to give a map an 11- this would be the map that gets it.

I'm very glad you all like it so much. Especially mr. anonymous (who is indeed entitled to his own opinions.)

If you're running a server with this map, please send me the name and IP, because I'm keeping a list (currently small) of servers running this map on my site.

Thanks!

Flags hanging free in the air like ghosts. Texturing with the wrong textures on the wrong places. Not really bot-friendly.

But the atmosphere is there.

I think, this is a 6.

Yngwie, you a prime retard, Lunaran IS one of the "snobby chumps" at the QBoard - in fact that's where I 'met' him and beta-tested his first Q2 DM map ages before he became famous with this one. In fact, QBoard afficiandos know there are some great Q3A maps, because most of them are made by people who are/were QBoard regulars (Lunaran, Peej, Bal, Vondur, Spog, Renegade etc etc). However, unlike some people they also recognise that there are a LOT of shite Q3A maps out there, and unlike some people are prepared to say so.

P.S. Awesome map, unparalleled atmosphere....shame about Q3A's gameplay and horrid items, shame it's not SP.

I've been playing this map since it's first release. The atmosphere is unmatched, the level of detail is incredible. The gameplay flows nicely, and I like how the RL is tucked in a corner, both hard to find if you dont look closely, and also a trap if anyone sees you going for it. Great map! I can not wait for more from Lunaran. I'm hosting this on my server, and people love it.

This one is my favourite custom map to date. Atmosphere,

gameflow, skilled map-design - it's all there. Even better than some of the ID maps IMO. I am looking forward to the next release(s) of the author!

Very Impressive. This map has the coolest atmosphere of any I've yet tried for Q3 - all of those snobby chumps at the Qboard who are saying there arent any good maps coming out for Q3 should check this out.
