Don't forget to leave a review, I thrive on your criticism! Grab some friends, have a little fun, find some secrets, and ultimately die tragically due to the never ending horde of zombie mutant freaks. You can't win this one I'm afraid.

EDIT: Very special thanks to Acid for his super nice water caustics effect. Sorry I didn't thank you earlier.

Looks stylish, I 'll play it later and update this post with my impressions.

edit: I installed the vpk in the addons folder, started l4d2, survival mode, since there were no servers available I had to play on lan, somehow the zombies wouldn't spawn. The level is also way to small to be actually fun, its only 3 rooms connected to eachother and a dead end hallway to the elevator.

Any idea what's wrong with the zombie spawns?

EDIT:

DAMN IT DAMN IT DAMN IT
I included the wrong nav mesh with the map... update coming soon.

No idea, you did... start the radio, didn't you?

Small yes, but trust me it can get really hectic. The only place to get health is the middle and it's quite the deathspot. This maps size and initial difficulty make it look like a cakewalk, I went a full 2 minutes without a scratch. But once you need health, there's 2 tanks closing in on you, and you're forced to make important decisions quickly, run, get health, run to gun room, get on minigun, or run to Pauling's office. Ammo, pills, and first aid are all in the dead-zone, you're completely vulnerable and I get quite a kick from it.

But anyways, thank you for your input, I've playtested with a friend a few times and we seemed to have a really fun time.

Download links up and operational, nav mesh and all. Except the l4dmaps download which requires me to wait five hours before updating again, so ignore that for now. Download from mediafire or dropbox.

[MayheM]

Really cool idea! I will have to give this one a run through...

Thanks everybody, don't forget to join the steam group if you had a good time!

Good news everyone!


The L4DMaps.com download link is totally functional now, running a totally tubular, rad, and most importantly playable version of Penultimate. I urge you all to give an honest review on L4dmaps, that way I can gen an actual rating so I show up on the board. More reviews = more feedback = more work = better map. Better map = better reviews = increased ego = not crying myself to sleep.

hay man dat lÜks rly gÖd.

g8 wurk.

The one room with the chain gun reminds me a bit of the room for the Golden Gun in Goldeneye 64.

thnx m8, MayheM änd I pl4yed and hàd å bla5t! Just one more review and I'll actually be on the board on l4dmaps.

Okay, here is your review, THE MAP SUCKS IT'S EMPTY, GO DIE.

Okay for reals, it was actually pretty fun to play, and looks fairly good. Great work again.

[MayheM]

Yeah had a good time last night playing the map. I can not remember the last time I played L4D2; likely about a year.

Anyway, right off the bat I was drawn in by the water effect from the rain. Some of the things in the map are really memorable in that they are original and things I have not seen. I love the fact that there is custom content since I get sick of seeing maps that look like every other level out there. Originality of concept FTW as well. The theme of the map is really good and lends itself really well to the idea of having a bunch of guns around.

Well worth the download and lots of fun to play.
