There's no way this CAN'T be official! This harkens back to NS1 style mapping, so imaginative, expansive, and each area is so unique! Release this in the next beta!!
I am really, truly spellbound by the quality of this map. I had a feeling that there would be mappers out there working on their own things, since the mapping development tools have been released for quite a while now.
But I never thought any maps would be even close to completed. Let alone on a level of detail and polish such as this. And, I'm even more excited to see the finishing touches left on that skybox outside the complex :D
This map is unbelievably beautiful. Such a thing can only be done by a real feak. Ive done a few things concerning mapping and this just scares me. Perfect work.
this map would be perfect for when the game can suport 16+ people with out no lag or anything. Multipult battle fronts. Seems quite hard to keep some parts of this map but at the same time it look hard to take some point. Looks awesome i want now! lamo
Amazing work and very innovative, whatever sort of combat it brings, I'm sure it'll be a very interesting change from the regular NS2 combat. A job well done!
Very impressive! It looks a little bit like an alien map but well we haven't seen any gameplay yet but i am looking forward to an addition to the beta build. That would be awesome. 32 vs 32 anyone :D?
Aw, now I just want to get my hands on the map. It's truly greatly designed, I just wonder if the changes that the team is talking about the relevance of technodes will change the gameplay. Great feature and I hope I'll get to run around on it soon!
AWESOME map dude. Hats off to the creator. Much thanks for bringing it to my attention. I haven't had much chance to play NS2 lately. Seeing all your recent videos makes me want to play SOOOO much! I too, cannot wait to get to play some more maps and get exploring.
That map is badass. HE should add a night skybox. With stars and planets and shit. He should also add a telescope in the map. When there are buildings on summits like that its for looking into space so it would only make since.
This looks....awesome. The fact that one guy made all of this in...I have no idea how long, but the fact that ONE guy made this when the whole NS2 team has only produced three maps in total (one of which, at this time, doesn't support full gameplay). Compared to maps I've seen in AAA games, this is still a stellar achievement, and those are made by a dozen guys apiece. Will this be available on servers soon, or only in private matches? I want to see gameplay, NS2HD!
Very nice map. So nice that I hate having to say this but...
Hives should never be placed where they can be shot from afar. And unfortunately it seems like its possible to shoot at some of the tech points without even entering the room...
holy s.... , I am intensely impressed :O This map seems to have more room generally than the current 2 official maps, and I cant wait to see the tier 3 units play around here
This map is beautiful. I absolutely love the open space, reminds me of NS_Hera's open space in marine start. Argh, I really need to start learning how to map on the spark editor, but I'm so used to using the Hammer Editor. Seeing this makes me really want to start studying tutorials. This is awesome NS2HD, show me more!
