    I know what you are thinking, this isnt a conventional infection gametype. Both the humans and zombies have a lot of health. I have done this so teammates can help human that is been mashed by a zombie or help a zombie that is been pounded by SMG rounds. It gives both parties a second chance after been caught. Also I made the humans health not reacharge to make it seem more realistic, like they get injured after been attacked. It makes for more teamwork and tactics. E.g. humans that are low in health will require more protection and humans with more health to take the front line.​

    ----​

    Human tips:

    First, stick together, if you stray from the group you will be sure to be taken.
    Secondly, use what is on the map, you will soon run dry so get the weapons early before there are to many zombies.
    Thirdly, as i said before, protect the injured and take the front line if you are healthy.
    Fourthly, use the warthog! It makes for some quality banter and can rip up the zombies.

    ----

    Zombie tips:

    First, when your numbers are low, stalk your prey and wait for the right moment.
    Secondly, when your numbers are high hunt in packs and take them by surprise.
    Thirdly, as one slice doesnt kill, wittle down a cirtain players and work together to kill them all.

    Looks like a good zombie mappack!
    The forging is clean as far as I can see from the pictures.
    Your post is also very organised.
    The only thing I have to complain about is that the it is DER Bahnhof not DIE but that I am the only one who is going to point that out because I am german.
    Anyway nice pack you have got there!

    Wow stunning map! I really like the post apocalyptic feel that this map so ominously captures. I can't wait to play this with people, it must be a heart pounding adventure. You have so many hiding places, mixed with secret passages and shortcuts that the map feels like an open city world. The player explores to find ammo, weapons, and safe spots to add to the fun. Their is a hidden story that this map is trying to tell, mix this with the ominous element you put in and this map becomes simply phenomenal. It makes me happy to see people still making maps that the zombie game-type was designed for. Very fun, VERY "Old School".

    As beautiful as this looks and as fun as it seems, I can't download it.

    It would be a shame for this to be locked on account of such a silly mistake.

    I was actually going to say the same thing about der / die. :)

    Anyway, from the third of the pictures that don't say "bandwidth exceeded" it looks awesome. Fix the pictures, fix the link, and then it's all good. It'd be a shame if this wasn't fixed.

    edit: pics are up, good work man. I don't play much Xbox anymore, it's gotten kind of old, but I'll get around to trying this.

    That's what he gets for not following the correct guides (Everyone that suggests PhotoBucket is an idiot, especially with account-free services like TinyPic and Imageshack).

    If you don't get your pictures up again (You never would've had to in the first place if you hadn't used Photobucket), the thread will be locked.

    All 3 of these maps are forged very well.

    My favorite though is der Staudamm.
    It has great fluctuations between open combat in the dam and close quarters beside the damn.
    The flow paths are simply amazing. There's not only one way for anyone to get anywhere allowing for variation in gameplay and coupled with seamless forging and brilliant aesthetics, der Staudamm is on the top of my list for general infection maps (just under Manifest). The close to open combat scenarios also add to an otherwise small map's size as well. Fairly balanced weapon layouts make this fun for the zombies and the humans since the humans can't just camp a br and rape with it. Der Staudamm is a great map with a great feel and atmosphere for a zombie apocalypse.

    While I mostly wanted to review just der Staudamm I feel I should mention die Bahnhof. The forging in this one was good but not as great as the predecessor. There are a lot of paths and rooms with multiple entrances as well, but the layout can be quite confusing especially since some of the paths dead end; i.e. the rocket vent. To me, the part of this map that had the greatest feel was the top part. The vehicles strewn about and the bending road had an atmosphere that was utterly... creepy. I loved it, but the one major downside to being up there: There's No Weapons! This is a big letdown to me. My favorite part of the map has next to no gameplay potential. I understand that it was intended that the survivors descend into the train station, but it just seems like a waste of time to create a spectacular area that no one is supposed to spend any time in. With that I'd like to request a map like die Bahnhof that focuses more on the ground level with a much smaller underdwelling so you can invest your budget and resources into pumping up the gameplay ability on the streets.

    Individually, I give der Staudamm a 9/10, die Bahnhof 6.8/10, and die Stadt 5/10.
    That averages out at roughly 7/10 for the whole map pack. So overall a good job.

    And if I saw that map that I asked for pop up, I'm pretty sure I'd adore you.

    I would love you.

    If you could maintain the atmosphere and make it decently playable it'd easily become one of my favorite infections maps.

    Really?! I put them on tiny pic. Are you on an iPhone because pictures sometimes don't work for them.
