Alrighty then, looks like I'm the first to actually play it... Micro review, harsh, fair, & 100% subjective! %-6

Good:
-Lots of custom content, love the vehicles!
-Custom music
-Nice skybox
-Interesting theme / location
-Bots seem to know what they're doing, don't get stuck much
-No major texturing etc. errors afaik

Less good:
-Bit flat for my taste, some more z-axis (yes, that again !lol) would have been nice
-Lighting seems somewhat bland, but probably hard to fix on outdoor maps
-Feels a bit cluttered (all RS maps do, actually), though I guess it does fit the theme
-No interactive content like exploding barrels (I actually shot them all to check, tanker truck too). Would have been perfect for a map like this. High octane... big bang!

Also, on a more general note , it would be good to have more structures, objects and materials that show off & make tactical use of BW's bullet penetration and custom hit effect features. But more on that in a separate post... Overall nice job with the map, had a good 3vs3vs3 match on it. :)

oh BE, you really should do some middle-east map like this theme, but have it with a bunch of buildings, some tall, others like houses, and bunkers, but all should be distroyed alot, lots of missing walls or sections, and pieces of walls and concrete providing cover in the streets and elsewhere, but it shouldn't as Redshift said, be really cluttered, it be great with a few thing, but mostly the distroyed stuff would work amazingly

sorry for going off topic

Glad Youll like it.

And about that shanti shack it may be alright as a whole new theme but not for adding to octane...

I finally got it downloaded and I played it, it looks good and I like the overall feel of it, and theres plenty of places to hide traps, too. ;)

Great map, I've been walking around in it.
That water crane's emitter is a little buggy, but the rest is great.

But...
my brother says it sucks... Dunno whats wrong with him :P
he says it needs alot more fine tuning and concentration on details.

But I like it :P only the barrels that are sticking in the ground are a bit weird but further its a great map :D
And maybe those little walkways are a little bit small :P

Heh heh... we played in it two nights ago. That was the funnest time I played UT2004. :D

I took one part of the map (the section with the damage amp under the bridge) and my bro took the other side of the rock wall.

We weren't really trying to kill each other as much as we were just trying to sneak into the other person's side and steal the goodies while keeping him out of your own side.

Great fun was had in your map, BE. :)

Also, the shrubs were my allies. ;)

I "planted" mines in each of them. Get it? "planted" like, you know, plants?


...yeah, that wasn't even remotely funny...
