[Review] Haunted House Map

[Minijar]

So I've just finished the haunted house map, at least the first run through. It consists of two main areas; the ground level, and underground level.

• Two story haunted house with armed bear traps and some secret passages, includes general spookiness
• Lake area with crashed boat/shuttle
• Crypt with organ harvesting facility that can power a generator (Uranium)
• Extensive underground mine that links several above ground areas together via tunnels/ladders. Includes house panic room, secret temple, house basement with generators and pod landing zone.

Note: This is a WIP so things aren't final etc. Issues need to be fixed.

Looks nice. You should name your map Z.1-otherstuff since we want that to be the first Z-level. Otherwise it would shift all maps down by 1 level

I might change some of the floor tiles to make it look distinct from the jungle map. The caverns might make some people think they're on the Colony.

Other than that, looks fantastic!

I say reduce the amount of 1 tile hallways in the caverns 'cause there's so many that it will be really hard for people to move around. Perhaps have one or two major cavern halls that are a bit larger and are connected together by the smaller paths, so it's like a main mine shaft and then a bunch of smaller mine shafts (abusing dead ends might be a good way to screw with people). You said it's supposed to be a mine, but it kinda doesn't look too miney. Adding a little more wood around and some more mining equipment might help. Boxes too.

Also, there's a major lack of windows. Maybe add some on the second floor, -keeping the bottom floor free of the window scum- and make it so if you hop out of the window you fall to the bottom z-level kind of like when you jump out of the traveling drop pod.

Spooky ghost could probably use vents to travel around the house, and maybe even underground, easily and quickly.

I like how condensed the overall size of the map is. It'll make the rounds played on it a lot shorter in general. I like the predictable paths that you know people might take allowing marine and aliens to plan out their moves better.

Obviously none of this has to be done, just some suggestions.

I wonder if we could get Rahlzel to get some spooky sounds for this. Ambiance might be cool.

I'll work on the mines a tad more, but I've made the upper floor exterior Windows unbreakable since I'm not quite sure how to send someone to the lower floor but I'll ask about. Thanks for the feedback!

Actually,it looks like the bottom floor has multiple windows,but also black curtains covering them,wich can be toggled ingame,nice detail actually.

Is the haunted House map finished?

[Allan1234]

the map seems a bit small to house upwards of 40 players...

[Minijar]

This map is pretty much done. Just needs testing.

I thought that too until I took another look at it.

[Allan1234]

not the map but the house its self
